John Kenn Mortensen is a Danish artist and illustrator renowned for his eerie and captivating drawings done on post-it notes. Born in 1978, Mortensen has carved a unique niche within the art world, combining elements of horror, fantasy, and whimsical humor to create scenes that are both unsettling and enchanting. His work often features monstrous creatures, spectral figures, and fantastical landscapes, all depicted with intricate detail and a dark, narrative quality that invites viewers into his macabre yet whimsical world. Did you know? Despite his use of what might be considered a mundane medium – the post-it note – Mortensen’s art is anything but ordinary. His ability to convey depth, emotion, and complex storytelling within the confines of such a small space is a testament to his creativity and skill. His drawings have a distinctive style, reminiscent of the works of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton, yet they possess a unique charm and identity all their own. This is a great moody style! Intricate and interesting to explore. (A useful tip: test it in Niji6, it’s great there as well!) The Midlibrary score is 9/9!
