I first noticed Jon Klassen's illustrations in I Want My Hat Back, though I realized later that he was also the illustrator of a series of middle-grade books, The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place. He also created concept art for the Coraline film, although I suppose his artwork is less directly visible in that instance. His gouache-and-digital paintings tend to have mostly muted colors, giving everything some measure of gravitas, even in the service of very funny stories. The amount of detail in the illustrations is incredible, from leaves and blades of grass and specks of dirt to little stitches of yarn.
