I wonder who came up with single lit window motif--the furthest I've traced it back is the Dell paperback Web of Evil cover by Robert Stanley.
Yes, I love that creepy expressive tree--and the way her nightgown seems to pour over the rocks. He manages to pack a lot of gothic atmosphere in a compressed area.
Well put--he really pulled out all the stops to create a beautifully rendered atmosphere of ruin. And this is one of the best portraits I've seen in the genre--she's as haunted as the landscape.
Yes, Garrido's masterful lighting evokes a spooky mood so perfectly.
This is the cover for The Demons of Highpoint House by Cathy Cunningham (Popular Library 00407, 1973).
I agree with you. I have a feeling why he scrapped it might have to do with scaling issues between the girl and the boat, which might fit a toddler but not a grown woman! The final cover he painted the girl in much smaller, but I think it's a less effective composition than this one.
It really does! I like the colors more than the finished one myself.
I've always loved his Godzilla too. I'm really happy I got to meet him--I think the year was 2009.
Thanks! Trimpe's Godzilla was and is iconic. I actually filmed him drawing this one--wish I could post it here!
