Our last post noted how a five-year old paid tribute to his favorite Storybird artists. As a corollary, these images from Dave Devries seemed fitting as a follow-up. Devries, a successful comic book and conceptual artist, was so inspired by his 7-year old niece’s drawings that he created a series of realistic paintings to mirror her originals. What followed became a book and lecture tour dubbed The Monster Engine. Speaking about its success, Devries notes: “It made me remember my childhood and realize that no matter how old I became, I could always see things like a child.” Amen.
