more night time stories
hmm, Hanna was kind enough to link to my sketchbook in her blog and I realized it’s been 2 months since I posted the cover to my sketchbook. I’m almost finished with it. I’ve worked in spurts, sometimes letting the book collect dust for days or weeks, and have experimented with pencils, crayons, paints, collage, and ink. My chief inspiration seems to have been my inability to sleep and the spooky night-fears I get from listening to “Inner Sanctum” or reading Cornell Woolrich late at night.
