Terrible Yellow Eyes

“With a Private Boat” by Alberto Cerriteño

Terrible Yellow Eyes is a collection of works inspired by Maurice Sendak’s beloved children’s book, Where the Wild Things Are. Illustrator and animator Cory Godbey created the project to pay tribute to and celebrate Sendak’s story about a young boy sailing to the land of the Wild Things and conquering its inhabitants.

Godbey invites artists to contribute works inspired by Sendak’s story, and each painting is new, exciting, and filled with adventure. Check out the full collection at here.
