Gris Grimly has
become a cult favorite
for his gothic children's
books that appeal
equally to young
and older.
Grimly's illustrations
have been featured
in an edition of
Edgar Allan Poe's
Tales of Mystery
and Imagination,
accompanied the
text of Marilyn
Singer in Creature
Carnival and Monster
Museum and embellished
the ghoulish children's
morality tales of
his own Wicked Nursery
Rhymes.
Gris generously
cites his many influences
and inspirations
among the most beloved
artists in the genre
of dark fantasy.
Among them are of
course Charles Addams,
Tim Burton and Edward
Gorey, but also
Clive Barker, Jim
Henson, Egon Schiele,
Dr. Seuss, Ralph
Steadman and Daniel
Clowes.
