While researching the prior post on ghoul makeup looks, I came across the work of Tim Turner. Very cool animated art for your wall. Looks like he takes vintage Victorian images and turns them into ghouls, animating them in some way. I just love these before and after images. Just a regular print of these would be wonderful to have on my wall!

Just love Travis' stuff. From a blurb on Amazon about his book-


"Travis Louie's paintings come from the tiny little drawings and writings in his journals. He's created his own imaginary world that is grounded in Victorian and Edwardian times. It is inhabited by human oddities, mythical beings, and otherworldly characters who appear to have had their formal portraits taken to mark their existence and place in society. The underlining thread that connects all these characters is the unusual circumstances that shape who they were and how they lived. Some of their origins are a complete mystery while others are hinted at. A man is cursed by a goat, a strange furry being is discovered sleeping in a hedge, an engine driver can't seem to stop vibrating in his sleep, a man overcomes his phobia of spiders, etc, . . .Using inventive techniques of painting with acrylic washes and simple textures on smooth boards, he's created portraits from an alternate universe that may or may not have existed."
