Recently I picked up drawing and painting again. Inspirations are: Winsor McCay (Little Nemo), Dino Buzatti, Robert Crumb, Henry Darger, George Herriman (Krazy Kat), Hergé (Kuifje), Edgar P. Jacobs (Het Gele Teken), Maurice Sendak (Where The Wild Things Are), Dick Tuinder, Chris Ware,  Sempé, Walt Disney, Pieter Breughel, Hieronymus Bosch, Jean and Laurent de Brunhoff (Babar) and Marjane Satrapi (Persepolis).
My favourite blog on drawings and bizar graphic art:
