Poe Caricature Used in "Strange As It Seems" Piece

EAP.jpg

This illustration, plus a few others, help tell the the odd coincidence of two Richard Parkers, one a Poe creation, the other an actual victim.

Behold the weirdness in this intriguing Strange As It Seems production.

GarandFan:

Kudos to the illustration artist!

And I think I'll tell my neighbor up the street about this. He may want to change his name.

Or stay out of boats!

Yo Menashe:

Great caricature of Poe.

John Cox:

Thanks for the kind word, Yo.

Cowboy:

Freaky

Zeroth:

Congrats, John! Very cool. Did you also do an illustration in the one about the Hugh Williams shipwreck? For some reason it looks familiar to me.

Terwiliger:

I like it. I really like the use of scale & width--gives him a "distance" to pensively gaze off into--really effective against the nearness of his lamp.

John Cox:

Hey T

Thanks for the kind word. I'm a big fan of cinematic proportions for illustrations. I get a chance to explore scale and depth in ways that seem more dynamic than proportions found in typical publications.
