Re: Camille Gabrielle

FROM THE SMALL PRESS ARK:

=================

THE WYRD PRESS ENTRY

This is the mother and daughter team: Lesley Wilkinson and the artist Camille Gabrielle who produced two Horror mags, Masque and Ocular, throughout the nineties, and a series of chapbooks.

Only the Horror mags below are going into the Ark. The 'Weirdmonger's Tales' (1994) is not being put in the Ark (since the Ark is not for single author chapbooks*) and is only included below to show the meticulous precision taken by Camille in producing the art. I have never met these ladies, but they put an onyx ring on the image's correct finger (a ring given to me by my grandmother when I was 18 and I still wear to this day). I never told them about this ring!!




Ocular #19 (1999)
Contains work by David Canada, M. Malefica Grendenwolf Pendragon Le Fay, Mario Petrucci, John Light and others.
More of an occult all-rounder than a horror mag, but contained horror stories.
I think the cover art is by Camille Gabrielle.




Masque #2 (1994)
Contains stories by William Meikle, Rhys Hughes, Chris Fretwell and others.
I think the cover art is by Camille Gabrielle.


The internal art for all Wyrd Press booklets and mags was wonderful, but the many items of artwork in 'The Weirdmonger's Tales' are breathtakingly complicated, precise and staggeringly beautiful..

Re: Camille Gabrielle

I'm not saying that it isn't the work of the same person, but the cover of Ocular is drawn in a very different style from the other Camille Gabrielle artwork you have posted.

Re: Camille Gabrielle

It seems 'meticulous' enough to be by her, but you may be right.

Re: Camille Gabrielle

Wow, I love this artist, Des !
I agree with Odalisque, the cover of Ocular looks very different in style.
I prefer the pictures above that have more of an Outsider Art feel about them.
Has she got a website ?

Not as far as I know.
I've not heard from her for many years.

Re: Camille Gabrielle

bump. Anyone in touch with Camille-Gabrielle? I've lost complete touch. I think she is possibly one of the great illustrators of all time.

Re: Camille Gabrielle

I suppose you've tried looking for her name on Facebook, Twitter, Myspace...?
