Viaticum
An original pen and ink drawing depicting a haunting figure with a melted candle atop its skull, sinking into shadow and water. Skeletal hands clutches a strange, fishlike meal, as if offering it or mourning its loss. The detailed stippling and hatching evoke an atmosphere of slow decay and quiet sorrow. A compelling piece for those drawn to the macabre and mysterious.
