Lovecraft Illustrated
By Pete Von Sholly
This is a collection of artist Pete Von Sholly's Lovecraft-inspired work — A full color collection of over 325 images from ALL the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft (arranged in the order in which the stories were written) with notes, sketches, and unpublished art. Intro by S. T. Joshi. Cyclopean!
"Von Sholly's phantasmagoria is a trip to be taken — a giddy, guided tour of off-road Lovecraft country and the worlds that wait beyond, a grand overview of H.P.L's frightful universe refracted through the day-glo prism of Von Sholly's magnificent obsession, the joyous consummation of a life-long love affair with the mythos that casts its colourful incandescence into so many of the wildest and least known corners of the master's work, illuminating rites undreamed of and vistas hitherto unseen. A joy from start to finish, I could not recommend this prodigious album more highly for either seasoned adepts or newcomers to the fold." — Richard Stanley, filmmaker The Color Out of Space
Pete Von Sholly has storyboarded over 100 films including The Shawshank Redemption, Mars Attacks!, Darkman, and The Mist and illustrated books by H. P. Lovecraft, Joe R. Lansdale, and Stephen King. His work has also been seen in his satiric magazines as well as Last Gasp's Forbidden Knowledge and Neurocomics.
