Korky Paul Libri
Le illustrazioni dell'autore, realizzate con acquerelli vivaci e penna e inchiostro, si distinguono per uno stile anarchico ma dettagliato e una "caratterizzazione selvaggia". Le sue opere, spesso paragonate ai cartoni animati di Tom e Jerry e ad artisti come Ronald Searle e Ralph Steadman, sono piene di gag visive e dettagli arguti. Impiega tecniche che vanno dagli strumenti digitali ai metodi tradizionali come pennelli, matite e inchiostro. Il lavoro dell'autore emana un'energia giocosa ed è lodato per la sua unica arguzia visiva e meticolosità, che attira i lettori in mondi incantevoli.
