Where The Wild Things Are

I was very pleased to contribute to Corey Godbey's wonderful project, Terrible Yellow Eyes. A collection of work in honor of Maurice Sendak's beloved classic, Where The Wild Things Are! Such a cool idea...

My idea was a simple 'what if'...like what if a wild thing was sitting in max's room when he arrived from his trip, eating max's hot dinner? I hope you enjoy!
