THE GASHLYCRUMB TINIES

these are pages from gorey's book. the first thing that i pick up about this book is the way that the book itself has a very bleak feel, even from just the cover with its dark, autumnal green and the low key drawing of the gashlycrumb family. this book takes a dark satirical view on death which is the same sort of approach that i would like to take with my book. the way that each page is presented also comes off very well in the book as it is all single sided, meaning that you are repeatedly presented with very singular images which seem to run like a slideshow. i think that this is how i will present my final book... very simplistically, with low key, understated almost etherial images such as those seen in ikkaku ochi's book.
