It used to be, when I posted a video, I would find a still I could put below it, so when I shared my post on social media, it would look good. I find I no longer care if my blog looks good on social media. Maybe I’m grumpy, maybe I see the forest that used to be the independent web, burned down by the social media wildfire.
I’m definitely grumpy. Here’s a horror short for ya.
Klaudia Gaugier lives in the south-west of Poland and has been featured in Art Doll magazine–for good reason. Her website is here, and the first two dolls link to her Etsy listings.
Thought I’d mix things up with some horror shorts. This one is spooky, creepy, and hilarious. I Live in Your House is a short film by Patrick McDonald. He plays Reed Vilhelm. He lives in your house. Hi.
I absolutely love researching art posts, because I get to find new, fantastic artists. Anton Seminov is a new favorite.
Her Etsy shop is on vacation right now, but she promises to be back for Halloween.
Kylie Dexter makes macabre little felted dolls in her studio in Melbourne, Australia. Even the sunniest subject, like her Flower Brooch, looks like it’s have a bad day. Want a Dolldrum? Visit the shop on her site.
Gris Grimly is known for macabre–but not too!–illustrations for children’s books. Including some Edgar Allan Poe.
Once upon a time, Spooky Moon was dedicated mostly to dark art. I’m reviving that for the rest of October. Here’s the first.
You can buy Pegah Salimi’s art at the Dark Art Gallery. This is their bio:
“Pegah Salimi Elizi, born on May 15, 1982, in Tehran, Iran, is a distinguished artist with a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Painting from the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, Italy. As a member of the Iranian House of Painters, her work has been widely recognized and exhibited in numerous galleries and exhibitions both in Iran and internationally.
Pegah’s art is profoundly influenced by the resilience and spirit of individuals who strive for freedom and pursue their dreams, capturing in her paintings the diverse experiences of life and paying homage to the universal struggle for freedom and the relentless pursuit of one’s passions.”
This is the latest video. I swear some near the end.
