BRIDE OF THE FOREST
BRIDE OF THE FOREST - Illustrated Horror
"Beneath banal real-life horrors, lurks a dark and grim fairy tale. Through his words and imagery, Mark Wheatley drags the protagonist - and the reader - into the forests of old - wherein anything was possible - even magic. Bravo!"
– Robert Tinnell, FLESH & BLOOD, EZ STREET
This illustrated short story features original paintings and custom layouts all designed to scare you! 16 pages of amazing color as only Mark Wheatley can create – written and illustrated by this multi-award winning creator.
“In Bride of the Forest, Mark Wheatley once again shows that he is the master of so many art forms. He delivers prose fiction that is simultaneously hard-edged and horrific on one hand and sensitive and empathic on the other, and he successfully blends it with beautiful spot illustrations and a rich, luscious, vibrant, background of living foliage. The result is a horror mini-masterpiece! To those familiar with his work, this quality and thought-provoking ambiance will come as no surprise, but for those who haven’t yet met this writer-artist-colorist-publisher-recording artist… ah, what a treat to experience his work for the first time!”
