Pete Hawley 2 Pete Hawley 1

Thanks to Matt Dixon for this one – he pointed me to Leif Peng’s blog – Today’s Inspiration, a blog on 40s, 50s and 60s+ artwork. There’s some absolutely lovely work on there, but I was particularly pleased to see these by these great Halloween greetings cards by Pete Hawley.

Hawley was one of the artists on some very famous American Greetings greeting cards from the 60s and 70s. His cutesy animal style may not be quite your thing, and it’s all too easy to write it off as fluff and nonsense, but take a closer look at his work; here at Today’s Inspiration, here at Drawn and here at Glamoursplash and you can’t deny he had a great, great style and a lovely line.
