Necropolitan Postcard one: Have You Seen My Foot?
Necropolitan Postcard Two: Afraid of losing her head Abigail tied it to her wrist.
(If you're curious the Abigail picture was done in my sketchbook by covering the page in black ink and drawing in white ink.)
I love the idea of a bunch of humorous postcards (posthumous postcards?) from an underground necropolis. Not the kind of place you'd want to get an I Wish You Were Here postcard.... I'll try and do these pictures now and then.
From the Portland Press Herald:
LYMAN - Roland Nadeau was digging out a gravel bank on his land last summer when he made a grisly discovery: Near the edge of an old cellar foundation, his backhoe had triggered a sudden explosion of mice and what looked like human remains.
"Somehow or another I wound up with a body. It was quite a shock," Nadeau said. He didn't know it, but he had stumbled across an old, unmarked family cemetery containing seven bodies, including the grave of Gibbens Kimball, a soldier from the War of 1812.

These are great!
Thanks Ashton!
Wow, lots of work! Very nice.
Thanks Vickie!
Yes - they are great. Particularly like the "missing foot in the first" and the atmospere in the second. The first is fun and the second is awesome!
Thanks so much Lady L!
I think these are great. How about "I think my heart is broken."
Thanks Rosie! I've just jotted that down...
Awesome work, Eric. Great cards !
I just LOVE the second one!
I'll put in my 2 cents that the first one is my favorite. Very sculptural with those lines. And her expression. So great.
I love your work on a day-to-day basis, Eric, but I have to say these are bursting with charm.
Fan-frickin'-tastic!
