A collaged wolf above the sockets, by Russian artist and illustrator Olya Leontieva. The wolf marks the danger, he is a symbol, a warning, not the danger itself.

Junaida

   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.

Ricardo Jorge


   Fig 1,2 (above) Ricardo Jorge 2014, Red Riding Hood.
"My Red Riding Hood is not so innocent and doesn't have a fear/victim relationship with the wolf. In the end I just want everybody to get along. So my wolf is not bad, my granny did disappears but for another reason, and the hunter...well...its not hunting season. I  drew it in black ink and finished it in Photoshop. My idea was to have a darker illustration, a horror environment where the story is not a dark one but a friendly gathering of the characters." Ricardo Jorge
Ricardo Jorge is a Portuguese illustrator who graduated from the University of Lisbon.

"This little girl is often in my illustrations, she is perhaps a child who is afraid and tries to find courage. They are illustrations I produced for myself . . . and I finally recognized Red Riding Hood!" Monica Zani
