Cthulhuby ~Acrylicdreams

Traditional Art / Paintings / Macabre & Horror

This is my contribution to visualize H. P. Lovecraft´s work. I allways wanted to paint the great Cthulhu, now it´s done! (but not as a comission - just for my pleasure)
I didn´t want to show too much of him, because in Lovecrafts stories there are allways many things that he left to the readers imagination - so I wanted to do the same with this picture, and I wanted to capture a remindable scene from the story "call of cthulhu".

painted in two days with brushes and acrylics on canvas, ca. 40 cm x 58 cm

This has that really cool 50s Sci-Fi feel. Nice job.

Fantastic pic!

This is amazing! The texture, oh my gosh...so detailed and realistic. Great mood and I like the darkness of the atmosphere. Soo cool.
