It is special to have this illustration by Mr. Helquist, presenting me as I undertake Themed Smell Consultant duties through the lens of the Lemony Snicket world.

Whether I am making concept sketches, drawing for print or painting for a ghost train, Helquist's impact on my approaches always shows. His artwork is all over my home, and importantly, his work has inspired my fashion choices.

Helquist's work helped me develop my drawing skills in childhood. When I was at school, he kindly let me interview him over the phone.

They are a treat to see!

All this artwork and more can be seen in Brett Helquist's 2019 lecture for LTUE:

An alternative front cover design—the entrance to Olaf's house 👁️

Finalising Klaus

Early designs of Klaus Baudelaire, whose hair thankfully had a change!

Early designs for the iconic Count Olaf!

Notice the younger, more brutish looking faces top left.

The final design was dynamic and devil-like.

Thank you
