LICH KINGS

Hello.

I'm doing more works based on the Lich. The lich is also combined with the structures and insitutions of man, rigidity and altering the natural world. This allows for drawings with a greater emphasis on hard angles, symmetry, symbols and architecture-like geometry.

The bottom of this drawing is based on Infest's Slave LP, though the actual LP isn't that yellow. The middle half of the drawing uses quartz crystals as the basis for ruined buildings. Apart from the lich theme, Zoroastrian funeral rituals inspired the piece; large structures called Dakhma are built to house the dead as they decompose. This is done so that neither earth nor fire is polluted by the corpse, which is picked clean by vultures and rain.

It's actually a lot more complicated than that, but I'm an artist, not an anthropologist.

Hi.

This is a dodgy photograph of the latest drawing I've done. It's based around the D&D character class "Lich". A lich is a sorceror or king who is essentially a magically animated corpse, often they have traded their lives or body parts for magical knowledge and immortality. Not zombies.

The theme works well with what I'm doing, and lends itself to a lot of religious allegory, viscera, black and death metal references, and Noothgrush lyrics. If Noothgrush is reading this, let's work out a deal.
