A solar eclipse was often considered to be a harbinger of doom, and after several false alarms it seems that one day the sun disappeared and never came back, as star-hungry "Pillars of Destruction" with red eyes and black hearts had claimed their next targetAnyway, it's Halloween time again, hence thethemed art. I'll admit I did have something entirely different planned but I ran out of time and so that one can wait 'till next year. But I realized I haven't done a space-themed artwork for the holiday yet, even though Christmas now has received two. Coming up with ideas was hard, from pumpkin-shaped planets to... well, that actually was the only other idea I hadThen I remembered how often I've had nightmares over the course of my life, especially while younger that involves eerie ghostly, shadowy forms, vaguely resembling sickly human figures with no discernible facial features or even proper "heads" - sometimes eyes were represented by dim red lights and nothing more. I've always found such forms to be more intimidating than typical "TV/movie ghosts/demons" which are still too human-like to me. My idea of a nightmare-inducing supernatural presence has always been somewhat more organic and alien-like in form, and the eerie formations of the famous "pillars of creation" photo seemed to translate into this form very easily in my mindUsed with paid permission by the music group.
