Step Right Up

Fawn Boy- Ink and Prismacolor Pencils

My sister said that this drawing has a sort of "creepy" aspect to it. I'm glad for that.

If you are in the mood for a little spontaneous inspiration, I will share with you a few artists whose work that has been deemed creepy. I find them to be absolutely lovely.

Martin Wittfooth

Vania Zouraliov

Gustav Adolf Mossa (1883

Hikari Shimoda

Dorothea Tanning

Jean Marembert

Suehiro Maruo (weirdest horror manga...by far.)

Domenico Gnoli (1933-1970)

Well...I could go on and on and on and on and on but...I don't want to bore you to death. The artists mentioned above have many other weird artworks. I am telepathically suggesting that they would be worth researching more into. Well that wraps it up I am off to play catch up on Blogger.

I am usually not a huge fan of three-dimensional art, but there are certain kinds of work I will always love and find exquisite. Taxidermy has been in my life for a long time, and watching my father put together deer heads and other animal figures was a sight for me growing up. The whole process is interesting.

Jessica Joslin had an interest in Victorian-era taxidermy and started to collect an assortment of natural objects such as shells, bones, feathers, seedpods, etc. She utilized taxidermy and thus created her first, one of a kind, taxidermy beast in 1992. Her art has a truly unique and creepy appearance. I think she is wonderful and I am glad to have stumbled onto her art.

The one above was made using a real turtle shell, bone, brass hardware, beads, antique vestment trim, leather, and glass eyes!
