I Paint Lovecraftian Horror In Hopes To Keep The Illustrated Novel Alive.

ADVERTISEMENT

Hi, I’m Mark Wheatley, an award-winning painter, illustrator, and comicbook artist. I’ve worked on various projects and in various media ranging from comics to fine art to television and film concepts. My current project is Doctor Cthulittle, a whimsical Lovecraftian adventure that I am illustrating alongside writer G. D. Falksen. Doctor Cthulittle is the story of the eponymous Doctor, who travels through the cosmos communing with the Elder Gods and stopping them from devouring the cosmos. The book is fully illustrated in the style of classical novels and pulp serials, an incredible style that we hope to help bring back.
