New stuff dump



Haven't done a post in ages so here you go.

Painting based on Es Vedra, the mystical island off the coast of Ibiza, rumoured to be a special place of supernatural powers, it is supposedly the cause of boats compasses going haywire when venturing too close. Whilst this is mostly false it still gives people strange feelings and is a particularly ominous rock. Also it is rumoured to be the place Odysseus met the sirens on his grand voyage.

Still work in progress

Death of A Matador

Dreaming coloured dreams
of death.
The death of a matador,
