In Like Sis

Shaken & Stirred recently directed me to a site showing several fine illustrated works by one Sergey Tyukanov. You can see a whole heaping helpful of them here. What I like about these is their first-glance similarities to the work of Peter Sis. Of course, Sis is Czech and Mr. Tyukanov is Russian. They're not wholly dissimilar, though. I wonder what similar influences they might share.
