Blog Post #3 Brom

I have the interesting situation where my favorite artist and author are the same person. The artist and novelist Brom has captivated my interest for years now, so when I read my favorite books, they are often accompanied by my favorite illustrations.

Gerald Brom, much like myself, was raised in a military family in which the family moved and relocated often. He draws inspiration from a the different places he has lived. Brom began his illustration early and already had many major clients by the time he was 21. My favorite part of his career however is his work as a movie concept artist. He worked on one of my favorite childhood movies, Scooby-Doo (2002). When I go back and rewatch the movie, I can see his influence in the set design.

However, the most captivated I get with Brom’s works is when I accompany his illustrations with his written words. He is able to create masterful and creepy worlds that somehow fit in our own. I would not classify his writing as fantasy or horror. It is difficult for me as a fan to define.

 

While I have already read everything he’s written once but there are certain books I go back to and reread. It is comforting to me and being able to reexamine the art after learning to create more of my own gives me new perspective on it.
