ahh and Disney rears it's ugly head!





 Can you sense a theme running here? Convention here we come - or so I hope! Prints will be for sale when I manage to get my Etsy store. Details will eventually follow.

The sketches are possibilities for development into paintings.... But will also be for sale.

I'm also on Instagram now, incase I hadn't mentioned - VictoriaMortuary I think.

 'L'amour' acrylic on salvaged wood




'Mad love' acrylic on salvaged wood

Having just come back from a lovely long weekend in Scotland I feel fully refreshed. Soon as I was home I got into painting the lovely Harley Quinn (*girly geeky fan girl swoon). The reason being that I'm hoping that in August I'll have my first stall at a comic convention! 'Megacon' In Carlisle, in the north of England.
Expect a prolific amount of 'geeky' wonders to appear on my various websites (keep checking my facebook as I seem to keep that the most up to date https://www.facebook.com/pages/Victoria-Mortuary-Art-and-Illustration/119799881529288).
The upper painting was a commission piece. I thought I may have struggled to begin with - as I've little experience in painting men), but overall I was quite happy with how Gomez turned out.

A selection of my latest creations. I've had the good news that I passed all my exams, which means I can officially teach the joys of mortuary protocol and autopsy procedures! It also means that now I can finally settle back into my artwork and get serious about things.
Today I actually submitted some work to a magazine which required me to write an 'artist statement'. Something that I loath doing - however - it's a necessary evil. I shall post it at some point and you can see for yourself how terrible I am at describing my own work.
Anyway, these images are a selection of various projects I'm working on. There is a portrait of Claudia from Interview with the vampire (of course a huge Anne Rice fan!). Enough babbling for now.

Got quite the mix here... on going concerns - bottom is a picture of Sarah from the Jim Henson film 'Labyrinth'! (Love that film). Then we got band poster design thumbnails, a new painting and another band related design idea....
