The Rats in the Walls

New Illustration by Chris Trefz brings to life a chilling quote from HP Lovecraft's "The Rats in the Wall".

I decided to try integrating more typography into this piece, by using one of my favorite quotes from author H.P. Lovecraft, from his story, "The Rats in the Wall".

Here's a quick synopsis for those not familiar:

In H.P. Lovecraft's novella, a New England man returns to his ancestral home in 1920's England only to realize his family's cannibalistic history. Distraught by the revelation and driven insane by the scampering sounds of rats between the house walls, he commits an unthinkable act.

Merry Shin Godzilla Christmas 🎄

New Artwork! Concluding 2023 with another entry into my "Walking in a Winter Horror Land" series. This time it's a scene of Shin Godzilla merrily stomping his way across a snowy forest, dressed to celebrate the season. Hopefully, the people inside that cabin heard the atomic wassailer coming and decided it was lovely weather for a sleigh ride together... to somewhere else. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and wishing you all a Happy New Year!
