The Landlady
A set of interior illustrations for a short story ‘The Landlady’ by Roald Dahl, a sinister tale about a B&B guest who realises slightly too late that his landlady is a keen taxidermist. The illustrations use very close cropping to emphasise the uneasiness of the story.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

“Her body was half-turned towards him, and he could feel her eyes resting on his face, watching him over the rim of her teacup.”
“There were no other hats or coats in the hall. There were no umbrellas, no walking- sticks – nothing.”
