Terrible Yellow Eyes is a growing collection of illustrations and paintings inspired by Maurice Sendak‘s Where The Wild Things Are. Cory Godbey, with a love for all things Wild, is putting together a unique collection of artwork as a “visual love letter” to the beloved children’s book. All of the art is done to praise the book many grew up with, without a thought of personal gain.

While a fair amount of them can be seen below (we had a lot of favorites), you should take a minute to check out the full set (and the super-big versions) over at Terrible Yellow Eyes.
