I thought it would be nice to take some Hokusai illustrations and crop them to the proper proportion for my desktop. You can see/download all of them in the Hokusai Wallpapers set I created on Flickr. I did my best to keep important details from being covered by the menubar at the top while not losing important details elsewhere.
After doing the desktop wallpapers I decided to try some more severe cropping and make some iPhone wallpapers. I like abstraction so they veer in that direction. Those too are in the Hokusai Wallpaper set.
I have long wondered if anyone wrote a Richard Scarry biography. Apparently all I had to do to find out was go to the Biography section of Amazon and search (Amazon | Goodreads).
Richard Scarry is up there in my favorite artists ever. I love the way he labeled everything and how scenes he illustrated have so many things going on that it takes many reads to see all of it.
