Description What started out as a sketch done in boredom soon turned into this. Helpful comments and Critique are welcomed.

Partially inspired by The King In Yellow, a collection of short stories written by Robert W. Chambers. The first four stories are loosely connected by three things--

1) A fictional two-act play entitled The King in Yellow

2) A mysterious and malevolent supernatural entity of the same name

3)An eerie occult symbol called The Yellow Sign that causes madness and death to whomever possess it.

Excellent portrayal of the stories general feeling, encompassed in the odd, almost elfin character.
Outwardly a harmless eccentric, inside though lurks the great evil that is the King in Yellow.
Well done, bravo!

I love Robert W. Chambers! ^^ I adore the shadow. ^^ Very dark. One of the teacups looks lopsided though.
