The Howling - Halloween Series 2020

New artwork as part of what I hope to be a series of horror-themed illustrations celebrating Halloween, 2020.

With these, the goal will be to work fast and loose and simplify objects where I can so that I produce a range of spine-tingling scenes and subjects. 

The first entry is a wolf howling while silhouetted in front of an enormous full moon.
