These photos of me doused in pig's blood were taken a few years ago, but after spending much of today being engrossed in the art of Gryla, I thought to myself 'hang the fuck on, I represented her quite bloody well at one point, if I may say so myself...' So here they are. Photos:… Continue reading My Interpretation Of Gryla
October is literally panting on the doorstep and clawing to be let in...and are you ready for it? How about investing in a dark, and obscure tote bag ready to stuff with Halloween goodness...as well as the bread, milk and sugar? And a spiral notebook to carry in your bag at all times, ready for… Continue reading Support The Dark Arts
I was lost today, with no idea which Instagram account I was going to feature. So I just scrolled through my feed until I landed upon an image from an account which suitably shifted my soul around. The account turned out to be @ethereal.wisp Alice Langton is the sweet soul behind the magical account. It's… Continue reading Intriguing Instagrammers : Ethereal Wisp
I have a true respect for people with debilitating conditions who transform their issues into art. Once such creative is Michael Massaia. Back in 2007 Massaia found himself suffering with insomnia. Unable to rest, he'd take long walks around Central Park at night. I'd always found Central Park to be somewhere that's pretty god damn… Continue reading Central Park When There’s No People

And how bloody stupid that was... Thankfully, Haute Macabre featured a post on his work the other day, and… Continue reading Intriguing Instas : Jason. W. Blake

Well, 365 Days of Dark Art actually turned out to be 326 days instead...but I'm not going to beat myself around the head about it. Unfortunately, life threw up some obstacles which needed to be tackled. But all is well now. All is very well in fact. Anyway, I want to share with you ten… Continue reading 365 Days Of Dark Art : Favourite Discoveries
