In old folktales of Jack ‘O Lantern or a Will-o-the-wisp, mischievous fae may lead weary travellers in to danger in the marshes. Here’s a little unseelie fellow disguised as a frog in the bulrushes, maybe don’t follow his light, it’s not a safe path… 🔥🐸 #halloween #embroidery #jackilantern

This is the concept sketch for my next Halloween project, a Gill-man mask from The Creature from the Black Lagoon. It's one of my favourite films so I'm excited to work on a bigger piece inspired by the titular creature. 💦 #thecreaturefromtheblacklagoon #gillman #hallowen #sculpture

I’m excited to share my finished Jack-o’-lantern! I was inspired by those amazing 1930’s Papier-mâché pumpkins, which I love. Also, you can’t beat a classic sheet-ghost guise. 🎃 #halloween #folklore #arttoy #Jackolantern #pumpkin #sheetghost

A digital illustration of the character Moros from the video game Hades 2. The character is depicted from the waist up and from the side, staring thoughtfully towards the right side of the image. The illustration is in a painterly style but left unfinished at the bottom of the figure. The background is low contrast and depicts green branches and leaves.

Gretchen got suspended, so we have to extra spread the word about Black Flame's release. I had the chance to read it a few months back and it's such a brutal hard look at cultural trauma, assimilation, self hatred, revenge, and the messiness of history. It will knock your socks off
