Getting inspired today by two websites:
http://www.laeyeworks.com/
Love the games that are on the site for no reason. Like all the vertical design elements, the random, the sense of fun. The style is a little glossier than I had in mind but I can homespunify and ludditize it.
Another one I stumbled into belongs to Gordon Wiebe, an artist based in Toronto:
http://www.gordonwiebe.com/
Simple. Stylish. Quirky. Fun. And the illustrations on the page are very much like those I'd like to create for my SF Book (see more projects Juliane hasn't quite gotten a handle on but have potential, really they do). My original thought was J. otto Seibold (bitchin', very much without a "g": http://www.chroniclebooks.com/Interview/Seibold/interview.html), but now I have another thing to think about. If everything I've read about children's book publishing hadn't said "don't get your own illustrator unless you're doing it yourself" (in a very mean way) I'd send the dude an email. I might anyway.
