Freak of the week with David Litchfield
Artist: David Litchfield
Project: Freak of the week
Website: www.davidlitchfieldillustration.com
An educational Freak from illustrator extraordinaire, David Litchfield. Entitled: ‘George ‘The Animal’ Steele playing Tor Johnson playing Lobo.’
David says: George ‘The Animal’ Steele was a wrestler from the 60′s and 70′s who couldn’t talk and used to eat the foam out of the ring cushions……In the mid 1990′s he was cast by director Tim Burton to play the role of Tor Johnson in the film ‘Ed Wood’.
Tor Johnson was a Swedish wrestler who played the character ‘Lobo’ in Ed Wood’s fantastically shit film ‘Bride of The Monster’. He also plays the role of Inspector Dan Clay in ‘Plan 9 From Outer Space’.
Have a good week.

David says: He is a Troll. Theres not much backstory to this one really, I just started sketching without any idea of what to draw and he arrived on the page. I’m quite pleased with him though. I used to love drawing fantasy characters and warriors when I was younger and I think he may stem from that.
Creature says: He has a moustache too!

Freaks of the week with David Litchfield

Alright folks, today we’re presenting you with something a little bit different for our Freak of the Week post. David Litchfield along with 6 other illustrators held an event in Bedford over the weekend for ‘Big Draw’ called ‘Monsters of Bedford’ and he’s been kind enough to share with us some of the photos he took. Take a look at some of these monsters, how awesome are they?
David says: This weekend I had a great time drawing Monsters for the ‘The ‘Monsters of Bedford’ workshop. It was set up by a local arts organisation ‘We Are Bedford’ as part of the nation-wide Big Draw event. Myself and 6 other excellent illustrators from the Bedfordshire area were on a mission to encourage members of the public to come in and draw a monster and stick them on our ‘Monster Wall.’ The event was a great success and loads of people got involved. The people of Bedford did us proud and drew some really scary monsters and some really bizarre creatures. I’ll be blogging about the event very soon and putting some pics up of peoples creations. So keep an eye on http://tinkerd.tumblr.com. In the meantime, here are some of the monsters I drew on the walls of the gallery space.
