Sneak Peek: Alan M. Clark's Pencil Study for Of Thimble and Threat-inspired Painting

cameronpierc — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 09:37:04 +0000

The image on the left is Alan M. Clark’s sketch and contrast study, produced with black and white pencil on brown paper, for the painting he will later produce for the raffle [details below]. The image is inspired by Of Thimble and Threat: The Life of a Ripper Victim, published by Lazy Fascist Press. In a final message about the raffle, just before the drawing, we will post the image of the painting.

For those of you who missed the initial announcement, here’s how to enter the raffle:

A. Take a picture of yourself with Of Thimble and Threat: The Life of a Ripper Victim and post it online (on your blog/website, Facebook, Twitter, or elsewhere). Send a link to the photo to lazyfascist@gmail.com.

B. Correctly answer the following trivia questions (send your answers to lazyfascist@gmail.com):

1. What song did Katie sing in the novel during her cousin’s execution?

2. What was given to infants by the childminder, Patricia Ennis, in order to quiet them?

3. What item in the novel is referred to by the slang expression “nose warmer”?

No purchase necessary. If you have any questions about the raffle, please email lazyfascist@gmail.com. The winner will be announced on June 4th, 2012.

Of Thimble and Threat: The Life of a Ripper Victim is a story about the intense love between a mother and a child, a story of poverty and loss, fierce independence, and unconquerable will. It is the devastating portrayal of a self-perpetuated descent into Hell, a lucid view into the darkest parts of the human heart.

Alan M. Clark is a World Fantasy Award-winning artist. He has illustrated the works of Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, Jack Ketchum, Joe R. Lansdale, Richard Laymon, Brian Lumley, F. Paul Wilson, Brian Keene, William F. Nolan, George Orwell, Poppy Z. Brite, and Christopher Golden.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Sorry about the delay in announcing the winner. It’s been such a nice few days that I completely forgot until about 20 minutes ago. :)

The builder was excited to be a part of this drawing. We took several takes of his choice. And the winner is:

Pam, who said, I love your flowers – they are my all-time favorite. You picked the perfect colors for them also. The boldness of the dark and complimentary lighter hues serve them well.

Congrats, congrats, Pam!

Thanks again everyone and have a wonderful New Years! To new beginnings! ~ katrina

It’s still summer and my baby is turning two at the end of the month – so let’s celebrate with an original map painting giveaway! The above, titled ‘Honeysuckle,’ is 5″ x 5″ framed and ready to enjoy. Leave a comment on this post about something fun you’ve done this summer and I’ll pick an entry at random Saturday, August 7th around noon.

My fun-tivity has been swimming with Adelaide – we’ve been in swimming lessons the last two weeks at the lovely Sellwood pool. Makes me feel like a kid again with all that sunshine and water – and she loves it too!

Cheers,

Rachel
