About
KlawBerry is a little monster girl, with little black claws, big horns, and a single green eye. She’s cute, and she’s also a spirit of goodness. “KlawBerry” is also the name of a modern folktale by me (Daniel M. Davis), in the form of a book.
About KlawBerry
KlawBerry (the book) is a modern folktale. The story is inspired by all kinds of ancient mythology, Grimm Brothers fairytales, and folk stories from Africa, Europe, and India, all mashed together like a spicy red curry. It’s about a monster girl who finds strength and power in herself, as she makes a odd journey. Grrlpower, literally.
About the Artwork
The artwork is a mashup of Kawaii goodness, classic Saturday morning animation, and happy mascots from Japanese and American candy wrappers, ran through a goth filter. I took added inpiration from Art Nouveau, toy design, and classic illustrated books. I wanted KlawBerry to look both fresh and modern, but as if you found it in a very old book.
About Daniel M. Davis
I’m a Phoenix, Arizona illustrator, publisher, and graphic designer.I started publishing my own work after attending the 2004 San Diego Comic-Con, the largest and finest comic convention in North America. (You should go sometime.)
I decided then and there to craft my own illustration career with my own two hands; fate had had it’s chance, and so now it’s my turn to make something happen doing the kind of artwork that I love. It’s been going really well so far, and though it seems to be endless in scope, I really enjoy it.
The “M” in “Daniel M. Davis” isn’t because Daniel’s an ego-maniac; it’s just because there are zillions and billions of Daniel Davis’ out there, and it’s too late to change my name.
About Steam Crow Press Steam Crow Press is my publishing company that I utilize to create and promote my artwork. I run it with my wife, Dawna, who actually helped me write KlawBerry. So far, we’ve published KlawBerry, Caught Creatures, and a “corporate” sketchbook called “Skulled“.Basically, I used Steam Crow Press to help me shift my mind towards business goals, to help prevent me from being a starving artist for the rest of my life.
