The Look Book
By Chris Sickels, Red Nose Studio
As siblings Ian and Ann try to keep themselves amused during a long and boring summer day, they learn that the world around them is more exciting than it first appears. After they leave the house, they come across an unusual array of characters and scenarios that make them see the world in surprising new ways.
Using charming word pairs and clever turns of phrase, Chris Sickels of Red Nose Studio has illustrated a bizarre world we would all love to visit. He creates miniature characters, puts them in beautiful settings, and then takes stunning photographs. Hand-lettered text accompanies the visuals, and the homophones are disturbing and funny, created with dark wit and executed with cinematic style.
In the guise of a children's book, this quirky and delightful book combines stunning photographs of miniature scenes with dark wit and clever turns of phrase. Showcasing the wit, charm and inimitable style of the award-winning illustrator Red Nose Studio, The Look Book is an artistic romp through a carefully constructed world that will appeal to artists, designers, and anyone who loves things slightly off-kilter.
