McBess illustration, via Grain Edit:

The work of McBess has been a source of illustrated inspiration for many new artists over the course of his half-decade-long career. A signature part of style that sets him apart with his natural ability to bring out shadows and highlights predominantly using thin tipped felt pens, a very big feat when working monochromatically. I love the use of lettering to give his illustrations more context, and the flowing, style gives another layer to already unique and intricate pieces.

From the same old sketchbook: an illuminated “I” initial in color pencil

From one of my old sketchbooks: Floral vine border illustration, inspired by those of the Heures de Beaufort from the early 15th century.
