Dan Hillier's new tentacle horrors

Last weekend I stopped by artist Dan Hillier's stall at the Brick Lane Upmarket in east London and was treated to these four eye-popping new prints. I've got the serpent man up in my office and he gets cooler every time I look at him. New Dan Hillier prints

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

cool – I’ve passed by his stall a couple of times and thought how nice his work was and quite like something you’d see posted on boing boing! (if i had money, i might even buy some)

but since max ernst ripped off the printers…
well then…all is fair in art.

(tho this guy better at least reference ernst or he’s a biter with those bird head people etc made of old prints)

Smonkey, I pointed out the similarity to Ernst last time Dan’s work went up here, and it is true. It does look cool, though. It has the air of illustrations for a horror novel but you have to guess at the plot.

I was in need of an art post-thanks, Doctorow-and you should definitely look up ’100 Headless Woman’ or ‘Une Semaine de Bonte’ for historical reasons)!

well! I thought I’d lost these!
