Quinton Blake is one illustrator I am looking at in my Narrative Image Making. Having many of these books at home I remember seeing the drawings, they were quite sharp and simple. I really like his illustrations now and I see how they made the Roald Dahl books stand out so much. I feel the illustrations made the books seem very modern and how they stood out.
Here is one example of Willy Wonka, a drawing done by Blake, when looking at the drawing it looks very simple, he exaggerates the lines and the features. His lines seem free flowing and they don't seem perfect. It looks like he uses water colour for his work and he does not use much shading. His line in his work seems scribbly and rustic.
