Grimm's  Rotkäppchen, illustrated by Czechoslovakian illustrator and graphic designer Kveta Pacovska is a very unique vision of Little Red. The illustrations have almost a shredded quality like they have been shaken and torn to pieces by the wolf. But there is also great graphic strength in the pictures.

"White and black are not included in the colour spectrum but for methey are colours and mean maximum contrast. And maximum contrast isthe maximum beauty. I am striving for maximum contrast. Red and green.The placing of colours one over the other. It depends on the relation,proportion, rhythm, size, amount and how we placed colours together.It is like music. Each individual tone is beautiful by itself and incertain groupings we create new dimensions, harmony, disharmony,symphonies, operas and books for children."  Kveta Pacovska

   Fig 1 (above): Junaida 2007 Red Riding Hood 

Sunday seems to be the day that I have gangs or flocks of Red Riding Hood's on this blog. So today I am featuring a watercolour piece by Japanese illustrator Junaida, who has portrayed a flock of Red Riding Hoods like whirling dervishes with a protective 'pet' wolf.
