The chapel of a mysterious faith was uncovered in a recently discovered region of Canada. Although details are scant, the religion centers on transcending death through a form of metamorphosis. Intriguingly, the site contained human-sized funerary eggs and cocoons, cracked open as if something had emerged from them. Despite extensive inquiries and anthropological studies, little is understood about this religion.

The last few years, my wife and I have done something every day for the month of October-- art challenges, projects, etc (the same way some people do 'Inktober').

I recently posted some of the Simpsons art we did every day in October *this* year.

Last year, we did a podcast called Podcast of Horror and recorded an episode every day in October, talking about Simpsons Halloween episodes. We managed to cover EVERY Simpsons Halloween thing released up to last year -- even specials like Halloween of Horror and Thanksgiving of Horror. The other day, we just made one more new episode to cover the new Treehouse of Horror XXXIV from this year (and we'll continue to do it every year as long as there's new ones!)

The new Podcast of Horror episode is here (along with all 31 other episodes from last year below it): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/podcast-of-horror/episodes/Podcast-of-Horror-32-e2c1vlk

I guess this all started because I've had a cartoon blog (https://animatedtvblog.wordpress.com) forever, and the podcast is based on that. I still write about cartoons and watch them a lot. We might talk about more cartoons eventually on a podcast of some kind.

I was also planning some future stuff on Twitch - doing full vintage episode streams like https://twitch.tv/dailysimpsons does once a week.

Maybe eventually.

MEATLOAF ASCENDANT (1997)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 30" x 20"

Cover art for a greatest hits album which featured songs from both of MeatLoaf's BAT OUT OF HELL albums. The signature bat and motorcycle had to appear, but as you can see I gave them a twist this time around.

#horror #horrorart #illustration #albumcover #meatloaf

A solitary figure stands at the edge of a ruined overpass staring down at a bat demon perched on a spire amid the ruins of a city. Everything at ground level has been reduced to rubble as painted in cool blues and purples. On the horizon, broken stubs of buildings are set against a pink and purple sunset. Above low lying clouds, the sky turns red. Highlighted in yellow, the clouds take the form of a rider on motorcycle with one arm thrown back and mouth open in a scream as he tears upward from the horizon.

For October this year we did a Simpsons Treehouse (Halloween special) themed piece EVERY day of the month. It was wild! And tough haha 😅 but so fun and worth it.

Sometimes it's cool for the brain to challenge yourself to something, see if you have the discipline to see it to completion. Doesn't always work, but amazing when it does!

Here's a video of all 31 from wifey's TikTok (https://tiktok.com/@mistressofpaint)!

THE DARK TOWER: KA-TET (2003)
Oil on Panel - 28" x 18"

Throughout the Dark Tower series, Stephen King portrayed Roland's group of fighters known as the Ka-Tet as a circle. Taking this as a cue, I built many circles into the composition and this became one of the author's most favorite illustrations.

A tight shot of Roland's Ka-Tet, circling with arms reaching out to each other.

A hint of bodies lie at the edges of this detail of Roland's Ka-Tet circling around Susannah's trike with arms reaching out to each other.

Tight detail of the corpses of Vampires and Low Men lying on the earth-toned street. Blood dots the foreheads of most, running bright red in the channel between bricks. Can-Toi heads atop human bodies represent a variety of animals (mole, rat, hawk). A rodent visage emerges from human mask on one corpse. A variety of guns, ranging from revolvers to semi-automatic pistols to a combat shotgun, lay discarded.

These are four of my favorite spooky sketches I did last month.
#art #sketch #horror #HorrorArt #MastoArt

A sketch of a winged skeleton swooping down and holding the blade of a scythe up to an old man's neck.

A sketch of a large man wearing a dirty apron and a burlap sack mask while holding a large meat cleaver and a bag full of body parts.

A portrait sketch of Void from the manga Berserk. He has a skeletal face with the skin of his mouth pulled back and his eyes sewn shut. He has a enlarged brain bursting from his skull.

Happy Halloween! Can't believe it's here already, I think we should get at least 2 months of spooky season, one just isn't enough (especially when we know what everyone will be talking about from tomorrow). Hope you all have the spookiest of days and nights!

EREBUS (1977)
Acrylic on Illustration Board - 32" x 20"

I was beginning to feel that I had pigeonholed myself with this series into three-dimensional variations of montages. I needed a change. 1/3

With a feathered quill in hand, Death pauses to glance up while inscribing a name in his ancient tome. His robes are faded, and beneath the folds of his hood, his skull is bleached and missing a single tooth. Blank orbitals stare flat black at the audience. His book along with a fat rat rest on splintered boards; the perspective lines create an illusion of a tabletop in front of him that really isn't there. Orange ground beneath the boards blends smoothly into the barren landscape of the background. His wooden throne—decorated with a goat head set within an inverted pentagram trimmed in gold—is decaying with holes are chewed through it. Many eyes, rendered white on black, can be seen peeking out of burrows atop the throne. Two uneven crescent moons hang tinted yellow against the orange sky.

LOVECRAFT'S NIGHTMARE (1981) - Panels A + B
Acrylic on Masonite - 17" X 28"

Del Rey Books asked me to do 2 paintings of horrific images they could use on 7 volumes of H.P. LOVECRAFT stories. I didn't have to illustrate the stories, just create images that conveyed the mood. 1/3

PANEL A - A red iris with distorted pupil, bent down and bean-shaped, dominates a gray montage of horrific elements. Festering pustules form on the lids—both upper and lower—while a transparent inner sheath slides over the moist eyeball. Curving fangs protrude from the ground below, tips dripping with blood. A barren tree composed of melting, tormented faces extends leans on a diagonal. Tiny red eyeballs break up the ghastly driftwood surface. At the base of the tree, a nymph-like wraps one leg around the trunk while craning her head back. A branch grows in the place of her free arm. Did she capture these souls or is she one of them? Stringing webs between teeth and tree, a spider tends to a body contorted in agony with arms wrapped at its chest. A mound of skull piles along the side of the tree. Rats with beady red eyes play hide-and-seek in the orbitals. An insect-demon stands on a crate with limbs raised to the crescent moon. Hands work free between boards to reach out and up from the box.

You ever just make fan art for an RPG Maker puzzle horror game that's over a decade old and has close to no cultural relevance today? Yeah me neither.

Mary is sitting with her rose beside her, playing with a blue ragdoll wearing an orange dress in the Doll Room. Several dolls as well as a portrait of a doll stare at you. The doll in the Red Eyes painting is escaping the frame.

NIGHT GAUNTS (1975)
Pen and Ink and Charcoal Pencil on Illustration Board - 15" x 20"

Out of what crypt they crawl, I cannot tell,
But every night I see the rubbery things,
Black, horned, and slender, with membranous wings,
They come in legions on the north wind's swell
With obscene clutch that titillates and stings,
Snatching me off on monstrous voyagings
To Grey worlds hidden deep in nightmare's well. 1/2

Against the black of night, a faceless demon crouches on the ledge of a balcony, pausing to stare straight forward with one arm dangling down. The crown of its head is peaked with three smaller spikes surround a long horn positioned to gore. Its wings fold behind as the arrow tip of a barbed tail teases into view. Another demon scrabbles for purchase sinking claws into the stone as its head emerges over the ledge. The immediate foreground is an elongated checkerboard pattern of cracked tile rendered in gray and black like the rest of the art.

Inktober day 17
DEMON

“I did not speak the words, but I thought them. And in that thinking, I felt time turn sideways, and it came up at me, falling and crawling together out of the void.”

A pen and ink drawing of an unsettling creature with a head and an upper torso, with no apparent lower body, but with 13 arms radiating off the torso. It has a grimace and hollow eyes.

TWO WORLDS (1985)
Oils on canvas - 36" x 22"

During one of the Ethiopian famines, I came across a magazine photo of a desert filled with a multitude of crude burial mounds extending off to the horizon. Struck by the implications, this image stayed with me awaiting expression. 1/4

Seated upon a flat rock with one knee up, a naked man with scraggly white hair and long beard pipes a tune on a human femur. Flesh colored, his ears are bat-like, long and furry, protruding up from the side of his head. He holds the bone delicately to his lips with pointed fingers ending in unnatural, wavy nails. Likewise, his toenails end in cruel barbs as one leg dangles down in casual comfort. Small charms hang off a cord set about his thin waist. An open, upended pouch spills gold coins down on a blindfolded owl flying past. Unseeing, the owl clutches a rock in one talon. The piper's perch rests upon a clump of earth floating among smoky clouds, a misty curtain tinted pink and purple like a bruise. Gnarly roots reach out in all directions probing like woody tentacles. To the left, a break in the clouds reveals an arid stretch of land. The flat barren field is dashed with low lines of rock—burial mounds as far as the eye can see. A single figure with shovel pauses in their work with head bowed.

ALEX (1977)
Acrylic on Illustration Board - 28” x 18”

Cover illustration for DYING FOR TOMORROW by Michael Moorcock (DAW)

One of the few paperback covers I've done in which the only reference made to the inside material is that of a mysterious mood.

When exhibited, this painting always seems to be overshadowed by other pieces of my work, but it remains one of my personal favorites.

#horror #horrorart #illustration #michaelmoorcock @dawbooks

In seated position, a boy hovers in the air surrounded by floating crystal octohedrons. His hands extend low and out at his side in a gesture that indicates he's controlling the objects. Blankly he stares forward, perhaps lost in concentration or maybe just numbly consumed by ritual. The line of his mouth and dark arch of his brow give away nothing, but his dark eyes are open. He hovers naked with his legs crossed in front of him, but weighed down one leg droops—a break in form? From a smooth circle of stones framing a well below him, slender green tentacles inch weightlessly upward as if in defiance of gravity. A path made of square stones set side-by-side leads back to where mountains peak on the horizon. The stone, like the sky, is tinted vermilion by the cosmic light show overhead. A spiral galaxy looms filling the top two thirds, but it is oddly intersected by a half dozen arcing streams of stars mixed with smoky matter that originate off-panel right.

Close detail of a boy hovering in seated position with legs crossed surrounded by crystal octahedrons as tentacles inch up out of a well below him.

Mini comic shows Tial and Rayan, with Rayan pushing a large wheel uphill, getting inside it, and rolling down at high speeds!

Below is the aftermath, he crashes into a tree and gets hurt, twigs and leaves in his hair, and a trail of blood from his nose and mouth... Wheel is also crushing him.
