Kids Draw Cthulhu

Wednesday, November 10, 2010


David Milano's blog contains a fantastic post of Lovecraftian creations imagined by an unlikely artistic niche: children. Milano's kids, who drew select cosmic obscenities and scenes from H.P. Lovecraft tales like "The Call of Cthulhu" and "At the Mountains of Madness," have a definite imaginative advantage over their seniors. His Flickr galleries house more abstract looking Cthulhus, Elder Ones, and Shoggoths than you're likely to find elsewhere. These are, after all, minds not yet weighed down by aesthetic mores or the drive to depict Lovecraft's horrors exactly as they appear in text. This contributes to a highly original freedom in visualizing cosmic nightmares.
