Lenore Pillows

A dirge for her the doubly dead in that she died so young

A reimagining of The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe. I always felt that Lenore had more to her story than the narrator in The Raven led on; she is not just a footnote in his story. If we wish to continue to have our classics read and interpreted in modern day we must continue to reinterpret them. So here she has become one with the Ravens and will cease to return to the narrator’s side. Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.” “Eagerly I wished the morrow;—vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for evermore.”

Lenore - The Return of the Army by Ary Scheffer, 1829. Oil on canvas.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—

Digital portrait of the great American author.

Edgar Allen Poe "The Raven" quote

Portrait inspired by the poem The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe.

This is Edgar Allan Poe surrounded by the ghosts of his mind and a blotchy background to represent his spooky writing.

An original acrylic on canvas painting of mine, for the Bad Apple Artist Collective's September 2015 auction... Spirit Animals. The raven is a messenger, and seen as an oracle in many cultures...often when a raven is near, magic is not far away, I painted mine surrounded by white and golden sparkles. According to legend, girls born with different eye colours were related to fairies, so there's a lot of good luck magic in this painting

Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most important figures in American English Literature. This design illustrates his classic "The Raven". Crafted with a supernatural feel, this poem has a gorgeous musicality to it. For those who love reading, this gothic classic was the catalyst for many chilling stories and poems. Great for teachers, fans, writers, students, yourself or a loved one who loves Poe.

“’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door Only this and nothing more.”

Edgar Allen Poe "The Raven" quote

I'm more than a little obsessed with Edgar Allan Poe, and of all of his work - The Raven paints the clearest picture in my mind. I combined my love of Poe and his POEm with my other favorite thing...fonts.

Little Raven

I'm putting a curse on him and I need some of his pubic hair.
