Tang Yun



Tang Yun's 'Little Red Hood has a Muddle Head', Tang Yun was born in 1973 and attended the China Academy of Arts, I am afraid at this time I am unable to find an internet link to her work. In this version of the fairy tale Little red forgets her way to her grandmothers but because she is so kind despite having all kinds of misadventures on her journey she finds her way safely to her gran's house in the end.

Mariano Diaz Prieto


I like the sense of danger created by this composition by Argentinian illustrator Mariano Diaz Prieto. The fear enhanced by the unusual perspective, and the possibility for the interpretation of the tree roots as further wolf ears or noses.

Yum


I have finished my MA and now, just need a little time, to recover from months of intense work.
As usual 'Little Red Riding Hood' gives me space to breathe and create without so much anxiety.
So I am enjoying myself 'Yum!'.

Manon Gauthier




Manon Gauthier's work has long been a favourite illustrator of mine and she has very kindly sent me her latest composition about Red Riding Hood.
 "Yum Yum! These cakes are really good! But, we should keep one for my Grandmother, shouldn't we?"
Manon is a self-taught illustrator with many books published with Canadian and European publishers.
She often works using collage, as in this image, working on separate pieces of paper and jigsaw puzzling the elements together. You can see her starting this process below.


Thank you, Manon.

Vered Gersztenkorn



Vered Gersztenkorn  I am not sure if this is Little Red Riding Hood, but the red stripe across the bottom of the composition makes it feel very LRRH to me. Vered is a self taught Israeli artist inspired by ArtBrut and children's art works.
