The Wild Things went here...
Terrible Yellow Eyes has been getting it’s share of web buzz in the artsy community lately. It’s a collective of artwork inspired by Maurice Sendak’s Where The WIld Things Are. Invited artists/illustrators have contributed beautiful versions of the classic children’s book characters.
My initial thought - OMG! I wanna do one too!
