John Cebollero's Lovecraft Art

Sunday, December 12, 2010


Artist John Cebollero recently auctioned off several Lovecraft inspired pieces on E-bay. Before disappearing into the internet's black archives, I was able to save copies of these illustrations. Cebollero's pieces represent traditional, well crafted Lovecraftian visions that make up in sincerity what's lost in artistic risk taking. The glassy eyed Innsmouth driver, Cthulhu, and a stylized Lovecraft portrait comprised the auction.


Cebollero's work in Lovecraftian art has previously reached professional level. Boom! Comics and others have acquired several pieces for use in comics. His straight forward, but detailed impressions nicely communicate visions from H.P. Lovecraft's outre worlds. In the end, these are the type of drawings that may be best suited to retelling Lovecraft stories in visual art. Consider John Cebollero one more Lovecraftian translator who has figured out a way to speak the Old Gent's language in sketches.
