Gorey

Edward Gorey. His work is a great inspiration to me. Not so much the drawing style, really. Although, I do really like his artwork. The writing and layout of his books are what I like. They're like children's storybooks that definitely aren't for children. Some of his stories involve orgies, murder, kidnapping, and such. Which is kind of creepy and messed up, but works with his style very well. Also, the little rhymes that he uses in some of his books make it seem a lot less messed up. The following is a link to one of his books online.
