I can't express how charming I find Maira Kalman's work. You just have to try it on for size yourself.
Maira Kalman, "May it please the court" in the New York Times
Her blog, And The Pursuit of Happiness,
Maira Kalman, Moleskine sketchbook, on YouTube
She's as quirky and freewheeling in speech as she is on the page, which I find additionally charming in a creative-mystic-guru sort of way, although I concede that some listeners will find her odd. But she won me over early with her observation that "Good things come out of incomprehension." Check her out at at TED on YouTube.
