Delightfully Dark Art


In my travels around Blogland, I have stumbled upon all sorts of artistic treats and the latest wonderfully creepy discovery is the work of a Danish artist called John Kenn Mortensen. His day job is as a writer and director of children's television, but in his free time, he creates amazing, dark illustrations on humble post-it notes.


John Kenn Mortensen describes his art as:
"A little window into a different world, made on office supplies."



A book of John Kenn Mortensen's post-it monsters will be coming out later in the year, but you can also see his work on his blog, Don Kenn Gallery.
