"The characters present in the illustration by Marianna Stelmach are as creepy as they are beautiful. They are rarely ever depicted on their own, but rather shown against the wider backdrop of the world they inhabit, where fish, stars and the moon are flown as balloons and everything seems to float. They drip, have oversized teeth and eyes, and are generally quite scary—yet also somewhat endearing and lovable, for all their human-like vulnerability. Marianna Stelmach, also known as Vuzel, her illustrator’s pseudonym, was born on November 21, 1984, and lives in Warsaw, Poland. She’s been presenting her art online for the past three years, and admits to be a huge fan of surrealism and symbolism." - Mark H from Bookmarklet
