Frankenstein's getting married. That's Victor. Not his monster...

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

New books. Lovely pretty beautiful new books. And 50% of the profits from the Edith Wharton (yup that's my surname too...) go towards the product(red) aids charity. See.

So anyhow, I've been drawing for an idea that came to me about reflecting images representing the family tree of characters from the book, and how they seemed doomed to repeat the mistakes of their parents, if not in a slightly varying fashion. So anyway. Here's a photo of what I've been up to...
