Current mood:soooo goth!
Category: Art and Photography

Hurrah!  I am featured in a new book- Gothic Art Now!

Many thanks to the author: Jasmine Becket-Griffith!

192 full colour pages, HARDCOVER, printed beautifully (with a fantastic cover painting from the talented Natalia Pierandrei), and featuring some of the best contemporary Gothic artworks out there - oil paintings, acrylic, digital paintings, sculpture, mixed media, pencil, installment art, ceramics, puppets, creatures, even stained glass are represented in here. Some wonderful artists are featured: HR Giger, Carrie Ann Baade, Laurie Lipton, David Stoupakis, Scott Radke, Daniel Martin Diaz, Brom, David Bowers, Anne Stokes, Steven Kenny, Lola Strange, Thomas Kuebler, Dorian Cleavenger, Gus Fink, John U Abrahamson, Erlend Mørk, Ryohei Hase, David Gough, Christian Alzmann, and many more....

It will be in bookstores EVERYWHERE at the end of next month.

All this at less than $20 at Amazon if you pre-order it!

It comes out on October 21st, but I strongly suggest pre-ordering for the discount (I can't believe it's less than $20, it's 200 pages of full colour art in a hardcover book!). It's up at Amazon right now - go buy it !!

P.S. TWO more anthologies coming soon...

Another glossy art book, Metamorphosis Volume 2, from the Beinart Surreal Art Collective and also a wonderful compendium of interviews with contemporary artsists, Women from The Underground by Zora Von Burden. Stay tuned...
