" The torturers brought one more victim to the room they dare not enter alone. Legend said the skull upon the wall was a heretic long past, from the days of the original Inquisition. Yet none explained the horns that grew from the ancient bone, or the disappearances of subjects left untended.
The pragmatic said that rats ate the abandoned souls left to rot after their confessions were extracted, and scattered the bones among the piles that littered the stone floor. There was no one to clean them up, the superstitious would not enter the room saved for these special cases, not until long after.
But this time, a pair of brothers had been taken. Confession had been wrung out from one the day before. The torturers expected to find his putrid corpse still bleeding upon the stone slab on which he had been chained and tortured to the brink of death.
But all they found was blood, a little dried where the chains had bound the unfortunate man, yet still dripping wet from the mouth of the inanimate skull on the wall. "

Dark Fantasy art is a new and increasingly popular subgenre of fantasy art and literature. It combines horror and usually includes gothic elements depicted in dark atmosphere. Dark fantasy art often involves elements of supernatural horror with intelligent beings like vampires and werewolves. Lately the genre also found its way to comic books, games, anime and movies. Many feel that dark fantasy is not yet clearly defined as it often overlaps with regular fantasy.
Here is one of my first attempts at dark fantasy horror.

this is the best painting ever i wish i could draw like that
I enjoy the way the painting kind of "sinks into" the blood drooling skull. As if to make the viewer seem more beast-like herself. Focused on the blood, and thirsting for it. Very creepy in that respect, and very well done. =D
Awesome... for a full size wall poster... something to consider.... great work !!!!
I love the deepth you have in your art i would love to do work like that it's my passion to create something so real but i will never be as smart as you great work
That picture sends other verry interesting images through my mind.
I'm loving the lighting and dark colouring of your fantasy art. I've actually used one as a thumb nail for a dnd campagn in fantasy grounds 2. Awsome work. And an inspiration to get off my arse and break out the oils paints again.
It is one of the coolest picture I've ever seen. I think it is awesome. My friend Jose, Alan and Luis we like it.

In mid 1995 I bought my first 3D software called Bryce and have been using it ever since. It's great for landscape creation and much else. In fact Bryce has been essential for the creation of most of my sci-fi, surreal and space artwork. A 3D software I can highly recommend:
