Is it possible to find high res images of Walter Wick's art? These are the well known childrens books "I Spy" and "Can you see what I see?"

I've struggled to find high res images online, maybe they have some copyright protection.

There must be something about autistic brains that are interested in this sort of thing, the way everything is arranged and the colors are just satisfying to look at.

I see what you mean. I struggle to find his work even at the resolutions you've posted. I suspect that he has been very careful about allowing his work onto the Internet in anything like high resolution. Or, even "better than medium" resolution.>picrel
For example, I found this one embedded in a Wired article about him. While it's decent in total pixels, the quality has been gimped. Even the filename specifically says "lowerqual" in it. When You open it, it looks reasonably good, has an 82% JPEG compression, which is respectable but not great or pro.However, you can immediately see the image is rotted with upscale artifacts and just blows all sorts of detail with "approximated worms" wiping out all crispness and lines. Looks like someone wiped grease all over the lens and shifted the colors under artificial light. It looks "good enough" for someone looking at it on a 6" or 8" phone screen, but put it up on a decent 2560x1440 graphics monitor and it just makes your eyeballs scream in pain.

For anyone who has both are the picture riddles in the games only ones lifted right out of the books or did they also have exclusive ones?

AI upscaling = garbage.
Just do high res scans or take high quality pictures of the images with a decent camera and good lighting.
Scans are ideal but taking a picture of the book can turn out fine, like this spread from Fun House.
