Poor Things/Lanark.

For Gray Day 2026 a wee peek at a work in progress.

A set of illustrations exploring Alasdair Gray's work through an Autistic lens. 

The Poor Things cigarette cards are based on the idea of the book being filmed by RKO/Universal in the 30s with a cast including Charles Laughton as Goodwin Baxter, Colin Clive as Archibald McCandless and Kathleen Burke as Bella (it's the same fictional film universe where I imagine Orson Welles making a Batman film in 1973 starring John Cassavetes as Bruce Wayne and Malcolm McDowell fresh off A Clockwork Orange as The Joker, it's a hobby I guess). 

Poor Things (Inspired by Bride of Frankenstein) with a Letraset and Tippex title card.

 

Whereas the Lanark illustrations are a take on the original art for Book III and it's inspiration.
