Chris Appelhans is a young artist and illustrator who's drawn everything from Coraline to Monster House. He creates honest, simple and innocent drawings that bring out our childhood memories. You can see his take on a modern day Alice in Wonderland on his website or see a collection of a few of my favorites below.
“Children have a capacity to handle much ‘darker' stuff than we give them credit for – as long as the underlying tone of the story is honest and hopeful.” – Chris Appelhans
