"I Like the Theatre, but Never Come Late..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

Educate yourselves.

This man--I worship this man. I read all three of John Bellairs' series when I was little, despite the fact that they gave me nightmares, purely for his illustrations and the fact that I had a crush on Johnny. Is brilliant man. His own books, too, are magnificent, and his friends called him Ted. Like Neddy Burne-Jones, but not! I love nicknaming Edward. ^_^; Ridiculous me.

--At any rate. GOREY = GENIUS. Go ye and read.

...He should have illustrated Ogden Nash. That would have made my life complete.

...And the rocks with eyes in The Dreadful Summons? Are cuter than turtles. Bwah.

I cannot tell thee how glad I am, ay! (^_^ Yes! And I used the wrong Secret Garden icon, oops. Here we go. Tasha Tudor!)

[bewareofitalics]

And to see thy gladness doth make me glad indeed! (*giggles* I love Tasha Tudor. She and John R. Neill are my favorite illustrators. Speaking of which, Neill icon!)

Oh, thou'rt too good to me! I rejoice in thee, Lady. (Yessss. She's wonderful, he's wonderful, and then there's Edward Gorey. *iconlove!*)
