Welcome to my collection of original art featuring covers published on vintage Gothic paperback novels, a genre I've always loved and been a huge fan of. It's always been fascinating for me to see how different artists tackle the theme of "women running from houses". In some rare instances, the women are depicted in front of mansions/houses but are standing rather than running. In other even rarer instances, they are depicted in the outdoors but not necessarily right in front of a mansion or house. Also, unlike some people would have you believe, the mansion/house wasn't ALWAYS depicted with a single light on. Yes, they USUALLY were, but NOT always and finding the rare examples where that familiar trope WASN'T used is a large part of the fun of tracking down these Gothic paperback paintings and novels!
