CHILDREN'S ILLUSTRATORS INITIAL RESEARCH - AXEL SCHEFFLER

AXEL SCHEFFLER
Axel Scheffler is a German illustrator based in London, who has illustrated many popular children's books, most famously for Julia Donaldson's 'The Gruffalo'. His characters often carry the same facial traits, which he is able to adapt for animals and humans alike, often with large white eyes with small pupils and long snouts. He uses a lot of colour but often pale, pastel shades, creating a scene that is easy on the eyes.
