The Michael Bukowski Bestiary

I’ve long admired the work of artist Michael Bukowski and his unique take on the creatures that dwell in the annals of Weird Fiction. In addition to illustrating the creatures of the Lovecraftian Mythos, he’s also tackled the work of more contemporary writers, such as Nnedi Okorafor and Ursula LeGuin.





He’s gone ahead and rendered a portrait of the Grey Boy in The Nectar of Nightmares!

I’m so honored!

Fenris Ah! Bukowski is to weird fiction what Wayne Barlowe is to old school science fiction! I'd completely forgotten about Barlowe's Guide to Extraterrestrials. I'm definitely going to check out more of Bukowski's work, and I recommend Barlowe's art if you're not familiar with him already. It's old stuff but art is eternal.

I am familiar with Barlowe's work. He did some of the old Tanith Lee covers
