Don Kenn is a Danish director and writer of childrens’ shows who in his spare time, draws monsters on post-it notes. His numerous creations can be found at his online gallery and there are even creatures that look very Lovecraftian, with tentacles aplenty, including this Cthulhu rising from the water or these tentacles snapping a boat. Bizarre tree-monsters, a group of vampires (?), and voyeuristics ghosts complete the ensemble. It’s all lovely and creepy.
But who is Don or John (he seems to use both names)? Little is known about him. He has risen to become the single most popular artist on Escape into Life with over 200,000 visitors to a single page.
