A Few Evil Things (Day 9 of the 32 Days of Halloween)
filed in Book Cover Illustrations and Artwork on Oct.08, 2012
In my childhood, Halloween was a more innocent time. Since then, one can feel the evil influences and while these have certainly done much to energize parts of the entertainment industry and put a few entertainment thrills and chills into readers and audiences, it is not without a downside. I often would like a little of the innocence and joy to come back. Perhaps one day.
In the meantime, here’s a little terror from the dark side that I’ve created with various projects:

“The Ungodly Mocker” by book illustrator Duncan Long

“Sometimes, Darkness Wins” by artist Duncan Long

“Hunter of Souls” by book artist and illustrator Duncan Long

“Organic Thoughts” by horror artist and illustrator Duncan Long

“The Balloon Girl” magazine artwork by Illustrator Duncan Long

Some terrifying horror illustrations here. You’re a very talented artist and I can see why publishers and authors would want you as the illustrator for their books.

Organic Thoughts is one of my all-time favorites! (But I love them all!)

Thanks for the kind words Sherry and Karen. “Organic Thoughts” employs patterns similar to those found in some leaves. It is rather amazing how mapping those to a face transforms it into such a monstrous appearance.

What frightening artwork — what an artist you are. I can see why someone would hire you to create a book cover for them.
