365 Days Of Dark Art : 69 / Frank Vic
Frank Vic's work raises question after question after question. I want to know the story that lies behind each one of his darkly atmospheric effigies.
365 Days Of Dark Art : 68 / Felix Velvet
Do you have plans for tonight? No? Then I strongly suggest you spend the evening over at Felix Velvet's website. Here you will find a treasure trove of seriously fucking dark delights. I honestly cannot get enough of this Spanish photographer's photographic experimentation.

365 Days Of Dark Art : 67 / Amie Dicke
When I first laid eyes on the work of prolific Dutch artist Amie Dicke, I thought to myself 'wow, now that's some extravagantly drawn corpse paint!' It was only when I delved deeper did I learn that the work I was looking at was actually crafted from manipulated fashion editorials.The image below is the one… Continue reading 365 Days Of Dark Art : 67 / Amie Dicke
Blekk Metal Documentary
Way back in November 2015 I volunteered at Blekk Metal in Norway, and was interviewed briefly for a documentary that was being made about the festival.

365 Days Of Dark Art : 64 / Thore Hansen
I would not know about the artwork of Norwegian artist Thore Hansen if it wasn't for a kindly reader over at my blog The Girl With Cold Hands. I logged in this morning to find a comment encouraging me to check him out, which I did, immediately. And I wasn't disappointed. Thore's work harked back… Continue reading 365 Days Of Dark Art : 64 / Thore Hansen

365 Days Of Dark Art : 62 / Jeremy Enecio
I'm unable to stop studying the strange, oddly alluring art of Philippine born artist Jeremy Enecio.
Celebrating the strange and the shadowy, the damned and unseen
