New premade cover available.

Film posters have always had a big influence on my art, and one of my favourites is for the 1985 classic “House”.

So I wanted to make a tribute book cover for it, I’ve been chipping away at this for weeks and finished it late last night.

This weeks pre-made is a product of watching far too many Italian horror films for my own good. And my experiment with glass in art carries on…

GenAI is a tool of fascism. Don't use it. Big tech is pushing AI to: Destroy art/artists because they may inspire resistance Censor knowledge by manipulating search results Make young people/students dependent and unable to research, write and think critically
