The monsters are definitely life-like and capable of carving me apart on their worst days. But on their best days, I make them mine.

Its nightmare visions are so terrifying, conjured up by Dante, Milton, Blake, Baudelaire and many others.

The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood began as a group of painters, including Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, who wished to reject the stern and academic strictures of current painting and return to the simpler and more uncomplicated days before the Italian High Renaissance and the days of Raphael.
