Boris Artzybasheff ~ 1899 - 1965

Boris Artzybasheff

The Ukraine born New Yorker, captures my imagination in a split second! His illustrations are rich in creativity and never fail to move me. His background in the commercial arts is rich with progress; achieving excellence such as the Newbery Medal (1928 ~ Verotchka's Tales and The Undertaker's Garland), the Cardecott Honor Book (1938 ~ Seven Simeons).

However, what impresses me the most is his anthropomorphism, like my favorites below!
