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.

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!'

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
Malin Mellryd Etsy Store
There was reason for excitement this morning, when I discovered that Swedish creative Malin Mellryd had launched an Etsy store selling - for the moment - jewellery. Malin's pendents are made from natural materials such as stone and wood, and crafted by hand. One of the first things that drew my attention when I encountered… Continue reading Malin Mellryd Etsy Store

I'm unable to stop studying the strange, oddly alluring art of Philippine born artist Jeremy Enecio.
