In my search for something new in my work, I think I´m going to let me be inspired by the dark... Try to make scary pictures, still with a touch of naivism. I´ll see if it is possible to combine it with my funny simpel retro style :-)
Who does´nt like Edgar Allan Poe stories?! The English illustrator Aubrey Beardsley, who also illustrated for Oscar Wilde, illustrated Poe´s books.
Not to forget late artist Edward Gorey, who´s work seems to be inspired by these nineteenth-century artists.
Something new from Danish Woven Flesh, comes illustrated shirts inspired by the great Poe.
One of my favorite artists is Dave McKean, who made the wonderful book about Mr Punch, amongst others, written by Neil Gaiman. His work mix photo with drawings wonderfully.
Note: Have to try...
