Aaron Damon Porter, born in Oakland, California, learned quickly that Mr. Sketch scented markers are not, in fact, edible. Inspired by Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbes, N.C. Wyeth’s work in Treasure Island, and David Mack’s reimagining of Daredevil, Mr. Porter has worked on his own translations of the inner and outer worlds we inhabit. Painting full-time in New Orleans since 2008, he has developed bright but silent worlds of his own. Desdemona’s Dreams is his first foray into fairytale illustration. The creative endeavors of Mr. Mohr and Mr. Porter in this dreamscape with Desdemona and Teddy is proving A Most Exciting Adventure.
