Great Pen and Ink: 3- Edward Gorey

Edward Gorey: February 22, 1925 – April 15, 2000

I have always loved E. Gorey’s whimsical sense of all things morbid. His style is simple as are his figures, but his images tell such stories.

Read all about him on Wikpedia (I am no biographer, others write better): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Gorey
I can show you art though….

The Gastlycrumb Tinies= awesome
The whole alphabet list is here(http://takalak.narod.ru/gorey/) and it is wonderfully macabre.

See a catalog of his works here at Goreyography:http://www.goreyography.com/
