"Spirit Phone." -deadbinky — “Spirit Phone.” The Haunting Series explores the Victorian fascination with séances and spirit communication via technology and objects. The main inspiration was the rumor that Thomas Edison was working on a spirit phone during his lifetime. -deadbinky

Cult Series. -deadbinky — “Death is but a Door” – Cult Series. The back story on the Cult images is that they started out as part of a drawing challenge by Brett Manning called the bad omens drawing challenge, but very quickly morphed into their own thing. They turned into a cult of animals in a mish-mashy Victorian/Edwardian era that were getting revenge on humans for exploiting them as resources. As a level 5 vegan, this idea just got out of control fast. I adore making this series. I am trying to touch on animals that get exploited a lot like farm animals, rats, etc. I am planning to do ocean animals, bees, etc etc. I like pairing them with a quote that is a lyric or a pun, something that could be chilling if taken in a murderous way. -deadbinky
