Drawing Monsters, Film and Fast Music. Dark surreal art all drawn by me. I can’t keep to one style so toss in some cartoons too. No tolerance for ignorance, hatred or xenophobia. Hypermasculinity is just a mask for weakness. Empathy is not a threat.

The end result! I've been really inspired by @health.band 's music and have been making a series of illustrations based on their songs. This is the 4th or 5th one, I believe.

My piece for the comic anthology/art book Horror Not Hate, up on Kickstarter. 100+ Contributors. 200 comic pages. Over 50 pinup illustrations - all funds raised for LGBTQIA+ and Immigrant Rights. We need a little bit more to hit the goal...and 57 hours in which to do so. Here:

The great Stephen Fabian is one of those artists from the 2E era of AD&D that just doesn’t get enough credit or attention. His interior illustrations in the Ravenloft line and Tome of Magic especially stand out. Pitch perfect aesthetic… and what an amazing talent. Pure 💯.

🤍 Gustav Doré 🪽
- Artist Spotlight -
I've been saving this one for last. It is a masterpiece.
"The Empyrean"
Engraving
#Doré #art #artsky #arthistory #darkart #literature #illustration #engraving #TheDivineComedy #Dante #Inferno
The illustration is exquisitely detailed for a woodcut. The composition features spiraling swathes of naked figures, clouds, and darkness. The bottom half of the plate features a robed figure in judgement. From below the figure’s feet a river of writhing humans are either being swooped upward or cast into an abyss at center. The damned are being corraled into hell by a sword bearing angel. Above the pit stands another prison guard angel with sword at the entrance to heaven. Above them are more angels and an abstract radiant Eminence with arcs of light on a tuft of clouds.
Today’s ArtDrop is a woodcut illustration, ’The Last Judgement’ by romantic artist Gustav Doré. It was commissioned for La Grande Bible de Tours, issued in 1866.

The witch king of Angmar
One of the many take I have done about this fella :p
Quote with your horn art!
(two sets of horns for the price of one)
A digital painting of an ice cube, followed by several hands closed over each other with water pouring from them. Bold text on the art reads: "ICE MELTS".
so don't get too comfortable.
