Altered Art Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" Book Illustrated by Denise Farinsky is now Complete!

Well, it has been way too long since I have posted on my blog. I have been working away at my book and then distracted by other projects. I really didn't see this coming with so many other projects I have been working on, but today I managed to complete my Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" Altered Art book! This project took me about two years to complete. I'm still in shock that I am done. :) Well, almost...now the task of publishing it begins! :)

Tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary Symbolic Illustration by Denise Farinsky "Love, I don't like to see so much pain"

In response to the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary, I felt a strong desire to paint a symbolic illustration. The Title of this art work is:

"Love, I don't like to see so much pain"
Mixed Media on Bristol Board

The title was taken from the lyrics of the 1986 song by Peter Gabriel, "In Your Eyes" that expresses the emotions I feel right now of heartache for this tragedy.

Illustrating my Altered Art book Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven"

Well, I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted on my blog. It's slow going on my altered art book, but I am making progress. I'm posting a small detail of the 12th stanza, but am currently working on the 13th.  I only have 5 more to go! This book is a labor of love. It's painstaking to have to work so slowly because moonlighting is really the only time I can illustrate. Just have to take it step by step! Onward!
