The scan wasn't kind to it. I don't know why sometimes the scanner makes things look so grainy. It seems to pick up and then magnify the almost non-existent texture of the paper in this one. Annoying.
Anyway. This one was done for The Herscher Project, project 28, Fear's Playground. This one was based off a nightmare I had a few a years ago. Basically I have this slight fear of drowning...and I had this dream that this rather malevolent nixie was terrorizing this small town near the sea and killing off men and boys. It was a vastly creepy dream that I can still remember quite vividly.
Anyway, the dream began with her drowning a boy who had been out surfing...so...yeah. We get this.

freaky

Wow, that IS freaky indeed! She definitely has the look of a serial killer; even without the skulls I would've thought it...there's that sexual sadist look to what she's doing.
The colors are absolutely wonderful...even if the scanner chewed on it, it STILL looks great.

Hey you finished it! I think the gain actually works very well for this one. It's very dark... not just by color, it IS pretty creepy, and well... you just nailed this project.

Terrifying dreams you have, if only they didn't result in art like this I'm pretty sure you'd want to rid of them...
