One time during a particularly frightening bit of sleep paralysis I saw a cat with a long, slender stick-like head in between pockets of cast light from a swinging lantern in my pitch-black room at night. I attempted to paint them into this image but failed at capturing just how bizarre and ominous they should appear. Happy Halloween.

Ahhh wow! This is so cool. When I looked at this, I felt as though I was looking at a sort of vision or a dream, and reading the description I see I was right~ Those cats are so adorable, and the deformed ones.. Give off mixed feelings. The colors of their furr is quite odd, semi-natural, and their heads are so unnatural. I feel that's a great representation of whatever you saw, because dreams are so confused. I also love the background! The trees are so bright and complex, yet the earth is so dull and creepy, again much like in a dream..
There are so many things I like about this.. It stands out from your other works. It's amazing, really. Great job, keep it up!

this is quite a different background to what you usually do, I like it, it has enough realism to give some perception of death, without drawing too far away from your abstract industrial touch. The natural 'tree' forms with the cats is a great connection, as well as the woman's long almost tribal hair. This is a really bold image to me, I think I enjoy having the figures so separate from the background, as opposed to morphing into it (which you do amazingly). The contrast of the textures and colours really gives that fearful edge, and the trees seem not quite right, much like, I imagine, the feeling of not being able to see something quite right or seeing something through sleeping eyes.
Also, the cats are really cute.
