Hey that's some great work!!! Tell us more Kaleanae!

Ok

Edward Gorey (February 25, 1925 - April 15, 2000)
He was an American artist who liked to dra macabre art works in ballpoint pen.
His drawing became well known through his animated introduction to the PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) series Mystery, and his scenic design for the 1977 Broadway production of Dracula.
He wrote more than 100 books and he loved cats

This is one of his books, well actually, has some of his best works in it. Is great, and funny.
