Let this post serve as a reminder of the January art challenge at Quoth the Raven, Nevermore. You can find all the details for the "Snow Poe" (white on white, with a spot of color) challenge here.
It has been written in many biographies about Poe how life-long demons seemed to pursue him. Poe, himself, even wrote of demons in more than a dozen of his works. In his poem Ulalume, Poe's reference to the demon seems to be almost personal.
In my artwork today, I have featured a stamp from Stampotique Originals called "Heads" by designer Daniel Torrente. My quote is computer generated/printed and is from Ulalume by Poe.
