Sabbat, Dark Interpreter, De Quincy Dreams of Levana and Our Ladies of Sorrow Sabbat or Dark Interpreter, inspired by Thomas De Quincy’s Confessions of an English Opium Eater, is oil on wood, 48 inches by 48 inches, 2016. Purchase the original painting of Sabbat from Saatchi Art Since the Middle Ages, until comparatively recently, a conjecture of public opinion held the view that visits of witches and warlocks to the Sabbat were a physical experience.

Aphrodite of Rhodes Somewhere The Sun Is Rising Aphrodite of Rhodes, oil on canvas, 24 inches by 18 inches, 2015. Purchase the original painting from Saatchi Art Inspired by the statue Aphrodite of Rhodes, in the Archaeological Museum of Rhodes, Greece. Roger Williamson’s 2015 painting, Aphrodite of Rhodes (Somewhere The Sun Is Rising), is a contemporary and deeply atmospheric reimagining of classical beauty.

On Prehistoric Cave Paintings On prehistoric Cave Paintings. If one makes only a rudimentary study of prehistoric cave paintings, it is immediately apparent the majority of them we know of, such as those found on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia at Cueva de El Castillo in Spain and Chauvet-Pont-d’Arc Cave in France, are always created in the most inaccessible and dark locations. Although the majority of the pictures depict herds of animals, research shows there is little evidence to prove any of these images were produced for success in hunting, because in most instances the animals illustrated were not […]
Kali, Time, Pagan Art Without the Pentagram Goddess Kali Time, Posted by Steven Posch on Tuesday, 04 November 2014 Anyone who thinks of contemporary pagan art as the preserve of the fey, the twee, or the technically improficient needs to get his (or her) butt down to the Minneapolis Collective of Pagan Artists’ Samhain 2014 exhibit, Doorways to the Underworld, stat.
