Eye Surgery

I don't know why, but the way Sachsen goes out of the way to make all of their characters look cute just makes the resultant art even more unnerving.

Dead Man's Well

Author's Note:

The dark well and the face of a dead man from whose mouth grows tree branches. Horror and fantasy animation with movie effect.

Dark Queen

For anyone interested, this artist produces some truly outstanding pieces of hand-drawn animation.

However, for reasons I can't fathom, they refuse to make them any bigger than 150 X 150, so you might want to bring a magnifying glass along if you're looking at this on a phone.

Author's Note:

Dark queen with crown and flowing hair in wind. Fantasy animation in front. Mystic girl in other dark world. Gloomy ghost in haze looks scary. Gothic cruel woman with mad eyes. 4K drawn Vj loop movie. Creepy lady video

I'm not entirely sure why this piece is called Meat, but the author didn't say and I can't come up with a better title at the moment.

“Never forget.”

The story for this one is a bit tragic, it revolves around guilt and questionable loyalty (and some unfortunate bloodshed) I will leave the rest to your imagination!

Hieronymus Bosch: Visions of the Hereafter (Full Polyptych)

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieronymus_Bosch">Hieronymus Bosch</a> was a Dutch/Netherlandish painter from Brabant. He is one of the most notable representatives of the Early Netherlandish painting school. His work, generally oil on oak wood, mainly contains fantastic illustrations of religious concepts and narratives. Within his lifetime his work was collected in the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain, and widely copied, especially his macabre and nightmarish depictions of hell.

The first two panels depict paradise and the souls of the righteous and good ascending to heaven, whilst the other two depict sinners falling and landing in Hell.

Hieronymus Bosch: The Last Judgement (Full Triptych)

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieronymus_Bosch">Hieronymus Bosch</a> was a Dutch/Netherlandish painter from Brabant. He is one of the most notable representatives of the Early Netherlandish painting school. His work, generally oil on oak wood, mainly contains fantastic illustrations of religious concepts and narratives. Within his lifetime his work was collected in the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain, and widely copied, especially his macabre and nightmarish depictions of hell.

The Last Judgment is a triptych by Hieronymus Bosch, created after 1482.

The left panel shows the Garden of Eden: at the top God is shown seated in Heaven, while the Rebel Angels are cast out of Heaven and transformed into insects. At the foot of the panel, God creates Eve from the rib of Adam. In the mid-ground Eve is tempted by the Serpent. Towards the centre of the panel, Adam and Eve are chased by the Angel into the dark forest. In the central panel, Jesus judges the souls while surrounded by the Saints. The right panel shows a hellscape, where the wicked are punished.

Hieronymus Bosch: The Garden of Earthly Delights (Full Triptych)

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieronymus_Bosch">Hieronymus Bosch</a> was a Dutch/Netherlandish painter from Brabant. He is one of the most notable representatives of the Early Netherlandish painting school. His work, generally oil on oak wood, mainly contains fantastic illustrations of religious concepts and narratives. Within his lifetime his work was collected in the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain, and widely copied, especially his macabre and nightmarish depictions of hell.

The Garden of Earthly Delights is the modern title given to a triptych oil painting on oak panel painted by the Early Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch, between 1490 and 1510, when Bosch was between 40 and 60 years old. It has been housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain since 1939.

As little is known of Bosch's life or intentions, interpretations of his intent range from an admonition of worldly fleshy indulgence, to a dire warning on the perils of life's temptations, to an evocation of ultimate sexual joy. The intricacy of its symbolism, particularly that of the central panel, has led to a wide range of scholarly interpretations over the centuries. Twentieth-century art historians are divided as to whether the triptych's central panel is a moral warning or a panorama of paradise lost.

Dreamtime

The Aboriginal <a href="https://www.aboriginal-art-australia.com/aboriginal-art-library/aboriginal-dreamtime/">Dreamtime</a>, or The Dreaming, is a rather hard thing to explain. So much that you're getting <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dreaming">two links</a> for this one to try and help out.

Essentially, it is the beginning of everything, where all life was created and all knowledge was taught. However, it never ended; essentially meaning that the beginning lasts forever and never ends. Hence why it's sometime referred to as the Everywhen.

In the lore, all living things were either the ancestors themselves, or were made by the ancestors. That is, a river may be an ancestor and may also be a creation snake.

The Dreaming explains how things came to be – why a rock is in a certain place or a particular shape, why the echidna has spikes, why the moon returns full every month, how kangaroos got their tails.

The Dreaming also commands the rules and ways of being in Aboriginal culture.

The individual exists in the Dreamtime before they are born, becoming the guardians of the land of where they are born and then returning to their place in the Dreaming upon death.

It does not matter if the person was good or evil in life in terms of what happens to them in the afterlife. There is no Heaven, nor Hell. Only The Dreaming.

Garkain

"Hang on Soup, this isn't a Monster Girl!"

Well...er, let me explain what a <a href="https://abookofcreatures.com/2020/06/26/garkain/ ">Garkain</a> is and the reason for this might become more apparent.

A Garkain is a humanoid monster said to inhabit the rainforests of Arnhem Land. It is said to posses massive slaps of skin, similar to wings, and spends the day asleep under piles of leaves.

At night, it climbs up into the trees and looks for people to hunt.

Once it has located it's prey, it then pounces upon them, wrapping them up in it's folds and suffocating them with it's foul stench before devouring their flesh raw; leaving the spirit of its victims to wander the jungles forever in search of a resting place.

Yeah, you'd think one of the fetish guys would have picked this up; but there's apparently no smut available that I can repurpose for educational use.

Nightmare Fuel seems the most appropriate gallery for this sort of stuff, so that is where I shall post it…
