Mrs Madrigal’s Postcard From Barbary Lane

Posted on May 12, 2013 by Mark

Here’s the latest in my Postcards From Barbary Lane series. This time it’s Anna Madrigal, inspirational, enigmatic and eternally quotable. The most ingenious character in modern fiction is about to star in Armistead Maupin’s upcoming novel The Days of Anna Madrigal, and I did this digital painting to whet your appetite…

There are two other Postcards in the series, Mona and that gorgeous old house itself, Number 28 and if that isn’t enough, check out my special Tales of the City page for artwork and features.

Postcards From Barbary Lane – The House

Posted on April 18, 2013 by Mark

The first view of Number 28 Barbary Lane is a magical thing. Mary Anne Singleton is almost like Alice going down the rabbit hole, as she enters the leafy courtyard and the mystery of her future vanishes. Maupin’s words build intrigue, weaving a fable of San Francisco, compulsive for adventurers and dreamers alike.
