Illustrate a haunting clown with an eerie smile and weathered, tattered clothing, inspired by Edward Gorey’s style. Use meticulous cross-hatching to capture the deep shadows and texture of the clown’s wrinkled, painted face and old-fashioned, ruffled costume. Design the character with a stoic, unsettling expression and slightly exaggerated, distorted proportions, evoking a sense of timeless horror. Keep the background minimal, with faint, blurred greenery and distant trees, adding to the isolation and unease of the scene. Include a small symbolic motif, such as a faintly sketched raven or a single ominous balloon in the background, to enhance the gothic, foreboding atmosphere.
