Response to an Artist: Arthur Rackham






Arthur Rackham was born in the late 1800s in London. He studied at the City of London School and later at the Lambeth School of Art.
Arthur Rackham's style is dreamlike, fantastic, humorous, and romantic. He illustrated books and stories by reusing images from other magazines and books featuring several illustrators. 

Alice in Wonderland
The Meeting of Oberon and Tatina
He inspires me because he illustrated fairy tales and he names his art after characters, lines, and phrases from stories.
Fairies Feeling Undancey
Ragged Children

Beauty and the Beast by Arthur Rackham
Beauty & the Beast
The Tortiose and the Hare
