"And dark in the dark old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked
Where Tim the ostler listened. His face was white and peaked.
His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay"

'The Highwayman' by Alfred Noyles.
Daily Deviation, 2005-10-08

Daily DeviationTim the Ostler by ~Sellers is but one of many interesting works suggested to me. It causes discord more for being suggestive than anything obvious, and I think that is worth noting. His gallery overall seems to roll around themes as far afield as Hollywood portraiture and themes from the Giger & Lovecraft playbooks, but in his his own voice.

Wow you did a great job on this in so many ways! The layout is very cool and the brush strokes are superb. How ever I keep thinking this is "The Joker" from Batman! ;)

Ah, I remember reading that in my English class about...a year or two ago?

Anyway, very awesome job. Very creepy, and quite disturbing, which I think is what you were going for. :) I'm especially fond of that close-up of part of his face. That nasty yellow eye is just the "cherry on top" for me. X3 (oh, and congrats on the daily deviation!)
