sesame street illustration posters

almost every kid in america grows up watching sesame street (hahaha, except me! for some reason i never did care for it. it was shows like reading rainbow or mr. rogers that i preferred). but i figured now that i've got two little ones and we do have a few collection of sesame street board books, why not?! little miss v loves her sesame street books. she knows just about all the characters. i don't think she's seen the show yet or if she has, possibly only a couple of times. it's so cute watching her go through her books and letting you know who's who.

so i guess it's only fitting that my second design post is of another series of illustration posters. i know i don't have all the characters from the show. i'm missing ernie and bert, as well as count dracula and mr. snuffleupagus, plus some others. but regardless, i've been wanting to make these sesame street posters ever since i did the mr. men series posters. next on my list are the little miss. i'm not sure if i will do them in the same style, simplified, etc... but i guess we'll find out sooner or later. i also know i want to add to my mr. men poster collection. c's got a few more favorite mr. men he'd love to see down in this style as well.

okay, that's all i have for now. we'll see what else i have in store the next time i post something design-related. :)

mr. men illustration posters

i guess you can say this is my first official "design" blog entry. okay, sure... there's not much design here, more illustration than design, but it works?!

we love the mr. men/little miss book collections from roger hargreaves. the poster illustrations above are just some of our favorites. c loves all the books and often times tell us which mr. men he is depending on how he's feeling. for examples, there are days when he's mr. bump or he's usually mr. grumpy when he wakes up from his nap. sometimes, he says he's mr. (little miss) contrary because he can't seem to get things straight/proper.

these books are great! if you don't have any in your household or haven't heard of them, you should definitely get a few to start. so, which little miss am i? i am for sure, no doubt, little miss chatterbox. i know it doesn't come through on here, but ask anyone in my family/circle and they'll agree. ;)
