Inktober 2016: Women in Horror

October 12, 2016 ajovarner Illustration

  • Project Description: For #Inktober2016 I'm illustrating women storytellers in the horror genre. Women are often overlooked in horror fiction/film "Best Of" lists, so I wanted to highlight some of their voices this Halloween season.
