Beasts of the Field

Illustration inspired by Mervyn Peake’s Gormenghast Novels: Titus Groan and Gormenghast, and Titus Alone.

Mervyn Peake (1911-1968), was an illustrator, painter, playwright, poet, and novelist. His words are like illustrations. Vivid and bursting with life. Unfortunately, he passed away before he completed the fourth novel in the series.

This piece has been recognized by American Illustration, the Society of Illustrators, and 3x3 Magazine for Contemporary Illustration.
