Maurice Sendak's always been a personal hero. Not just for his illustration. Not just for his mastery of perfectly simple stories, but because of who he was.
I loved that he had the guts to write scary things for children. That he didn't compromise his work for anyone. And we're all the better because he stood his ground and got his stories published the way he wanted them, the way they're supposed to be.
There's a lot more to being an artist than just talent. You need courage, and Maurice Sendak showed us all how it's done.

Dog chilling with KW's body, with the claws added too. I guess he didn't quite know what to think. Probably a. are you edible, and b. you're sitting in my seat.

Tonight Boo and I have been playing with plasticine, and doing preparation for our stop frame animation workshop over the next two days. Here is Max and his boat.

Ps this is why I havent been visiting your streams much over last few days...I'll be there soon.

Attempting to dance as much as possible without the head falling off! (That's my excuse. It's probably how I dance even without a huge plaster head attached to me).

Everyone who attended the movie premiere received a crown like the one Max wears in the book. It was pretty adorable to see grownups playing dress-up in such quantities.

Among the handful of books I remember having when I was a toddler are three volumes that Sendak illustrated for Ruth Krauss: Open House For Butterflies, I’ll Be You And You Be Me, and A Hole Is To Dig. I predict many people will use Where The Wild Things Are as their tributes to the man who died today at age 83, but my roots are here.
