Quentin Blake

Quentin Blake is the creator of Rold Dahl's illustrations, I always remember these images he paints as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was one of the first books I read by myself. The illustrations are light and simple but they have so much character and colour, I based my own paintings around these and created my own style. I love the way he uses watercolour and when I chose to paint with these he was the first person I chose to research. Quentin’s illustrations are very simple which I like, he draws the way he wants to and I think that gives his work a different look.
