Toxic Notebook

Illustrator Sunday: Joseph A. Smith/Witches (Part 3)

This one is kind of short, but not for lack of good art- it’s just that many of the images in this book were unscannable unless I wanted to break my copy in the process. And that’s not happening.

This week, I’m featuring Joseph A. Smith’s artwork from Erica Jong’s WITCHES. I suspect some of you have read this book. Personally, I’m agnostic, but I love mythology & folklore, and Smith does the subject justice. Enjoy!

If you want to see the images at full size, click and drag the image from the photoset into a new tab.

Illustrator Sunday: Illustrated Books Covers Vol.1 (Part 6)

Scanned from many, many books. Artist names are not listed this time around, since the vast majority of the books did not credit the cover artist. Also, it turns out I have WAY more books than can be featured in one day, so I’m going to post Vol. 2 either next week or at a later date.
