Clowning Around, an illustration done on a sticky note by John Kenn
“Clowning Around”
 
Illustrator John Kenn Mortensen calls his dark illustrations done on “sticky notes” of child-eating monsters, vampires, spiders and ghouls a “salute to the misfits of the world.”

Mortensen, who has also created televison programs for kids, lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. In an interview from 2014 he categorized himself as a “misfit” of sorts who didn’t “fit into” the “code of conduct” of the Danish art scene. His artwork is very much in the same spirit of fellow grimster Edward Gorey, and Mortensen’s micro-illustrations are as impeccable as they are terrifying. Especially when it comes to Kenn’s child-eating, vampire clowns.
