sea vertigo
in my (rare) spare time, i have been reading "20000 under the sea" by jules verne. i have always been fascinated by this novel, i even remember that verne audiobook i had in my youth. it was on vynil, and i'm unable to find the same version today. the quality was absolutely great.

ReplyDeleteThat was one of my favorite novels by Verne, followed closely by 'journey to the center of the earth'. still able to capture my imagination after all these years.
One word : awesome !
ReplyDeleteI've been reading the same book (again) a couple of months ago.
"Gründ editions" edited it with a beautiful cover and illustrations ; and the cover's colours are close to your artwork piece.
Outstanding!!!!
