Older work: The monster who keeps lonely children company

Series of illustrations for a small childrens book collab between me, Cootje Veelenturf (a writer from the Antwerp writer's academy), and Arend Pelgrims (a graphic designer from Sint Lucas, Ghent). Title of the book is "The Monster that keeps lonely children company" (Het monster dat eenzame kinderen gezelschap houdt). It's about a girl, Hannah, who's father is to busy to look after her. One day a monster appears in her room...

Never mind the dirty sides of the prints, they were got rid off of in the final book.
