Description
“From the darkest depths of uncharted seas rises the spawn of Piscathces.
Cast out of the dark by its scholarly kin, this abhorrent aboleth is blinded by rage within.
It clambers upon sickly rock, in search of members of a new flock.
Be wary of its gaze and the slime it exudes, for in its presence… your mind you may lose.”
* Progress posts regarding this piece can be seen here, and here.
prints are available in my INPRNT shop !
**The abloeth is a classic Dungeons and Dragons monster, and this is my interpretation of a possible variation.

hello, I do still update frequently on my tumblr and facebook accounts; it is difficult to manage so much social media. I am trying to rectify my long absence here, though!

it is in part! the original Dungeons and Dragons version is heavily lovecraftian, and I pushed it in my own direction.
