Summary

If you've been to a few horror conventions over the years, you've probably noticed all the artists showcasing their work. Do you ever stop to browse, flipping through their illustrations and taking in the different visions of horror they bring to life? These artists set up hoping to catch the eye of fans wandering past, sharing their unique takes on monsters, movies, and macabre ideas. One of those artists is Don England. For decades, Don has been a fixture at conventions, known for his striking pen-and-ink style. His work is not only distinctive, it's consistently excellent.
