"If you'd like to see a sight
To set your skin acrawl,
Come with me on Hallow's Night
To see the Zombie Ball!
Round the smarmy toadstool bed
On Amanita Lane
Merry dance the mouldy dead
Who've come to life again.
First there wobbles Squashed Hedgehog
Who fell beneath a car.
Then leaps lively Half-a-Frog
(How tasty frog-legs are!)
Next comes Rotten Rex the Rat
Corrupted to the bone
And in his trail of maggots fat
Comes Stinky Bird, alone.
Bringing up the putrid rear
With guts upon his feet
Pond'rous twirls, amid loud jeers
The shrew who lived to eat."

Beautiful gallery! May I ask if you like Rackham or Grunewald? The poem reminds me of 'The Goblin Market' by Christina Rosetti. Thank you for sharing your work.

Thank you!
And, yes, you caught me; I do, especially Rackham. I am a shameless Rackham, Durer, and Dore ripper-offer, I'm afraid!

This was done with Photoshop 6 or 7 (can't remember which), using round brushes.

Hmmm...good question. I can't remember. This is a really old picture. I THINK I just drew it on the Wacom tablet, though.
