* DarkerandEdgier: ''Turbulence: A Log Book'' is probably Henrik Drescher’s darkest work due to it dealing with sexual innuendos and having very disturbing imagery. ''Tales from the Crib'' which shows some explicit nudity and the darker side of parenting is also this to a lesser degree, especially since Henrik Drescher has occasionally written children’s books.

'''Henrik Drescher''' is a Danish born artist who was well known for his surreal editorial artwork in the New York Times, the Washington Post, Newsweek, Time and Rolling Stone. He has also written and illustrated several books that were targeted towards children.

Born in 1955, Henrik Drescher and his family had emigrated to the United States in 1967, where he attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. However, he ended up quitting the school after only one semester in order to become an illustrator. Henrik Drescher has also travelled around the world including North America and Europe and he kept journals of various notes and drawings that would inspire some of his work later on.
