I absolutely love researching art posts, because I get to find new, fantastic artists. Anton Seminov is a new favorite.



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.”
Tune in to my 1972 television movie ranking to meet my first cousin once removed! Not gonna tell you who. Yes, they’re famous. No, I never met them. I suffered a little for this year, but there were still some high spots.
SHOUT OUT FROM THE COUNTDOWN
Do you like little plastic toys? Action Figure Barbecue does nothing but. I don’t think he barbecues them, though. That would produce some nasty fumes.
Mostly, DUEL, which is a great film, and Spielberg’s first full-length feature! It did so well on television, that they added scenes and did a theatrical release. And that’s not the only great movie this year.
Today’s shout-out is to Your Best Halloween Ever. The title is self-explanatory. You’ll find recipes, decorating tips, everything to make your Halloween FABULOUS.
I’ve started a new series on my channel where I rank television horror movies year by year, starting with 1970. Man, has this been fun. Sure, there are some clunkers, but there are also some amazing gems hidden in these years.
Today’s shout-out is Garage Sale Finds, who has been in the countdown for 13 years! This is a great blog that I wish I’d been following forever, so I’ll start now.
