Hey, it�s been quite some time until I posted actual art. But the moment finally arrived and here it is! 
detail 1, detail 2, detail 3
Having read most H.P.Lovecraft stories (just about to finish the 3rd Omnibus), the respect for his work and my admiration for him were finally enough motivation to do a finished painting after a way too long time of not painting anything.
My plans are to get it printed on canvas (or something similar), but I have yet to fire an email to the print-company to ask what would be best for the image.
Nearly everything is a reference to things out of his stories(or even to himself). I wonder if the Lovecraft readers amongst you recognize them?
Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoy the image. |

That book needs a title. Maybe.. Necronomicon? 
Nice composition, and the colors really capture that New England halloween feeling.

| Yeah I found out that for some people it does not work currently. This is very likely due to an IP change of my host. I hope it gets solved up soon and hope even more you check back to see the image. (Isn�t it funny how everything works fine until you really need it like once in ages?) |

great job with the lighting especially on the chest. dig it lots.
i agree with the book crits though. the cover could use some more work.
