Alice

These illustrations were done by Frank Brunner who was a popular comic book artist and writer during the 70s and 80s. He chose to create his own interpretation of Alice in Wonderland. I am guessing that he chose to represent Alice as a nude goddess to symbolize her vulnerability in the story. There are color versions of the illustrations, but I was more interested in the black-and-white ones. You can see more of Brunner's work on his website.

Sid and Nancy

I watched the movie Sid & Nancy last night. I haven't seen it in awhile. I think that the movie really captures the intimacy and realness of the iconic characters. The fact that Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen actually existed and chose to live the lives they did is what captures my interest. It makes you think about the human existence, the history of culture, why people like the things they like and become who they become. It's dark and dismal for sure, yet I can't help but like it. There are some great scenes, and one of my favorites is the end, how they portray the death of Sid Vicious.

Edmund Dulac

Dulac was a French illustrator during the early 20th century. I love his charming illustrative style and the earthy tones he uses.
