31 Nights of Halloween - Night 11: The Mighty Frazetta

We here in the Dark Dimension have meditated upon Frank Frazetta's art before. But we never tire of discussing Frazetta and gazing upon his work. The lush sensuality and dark palette of the artist seem especially appropriate at Halloween. Twilight struggles and desperate rescues are so often the subjects of the tableaus Frazetta painted, ur-memories of ancient horrors that linger somewhere deep within our collective unconsciousness. Frazetta created a dimension of brooding warriors, evil sorcerers, and unnatural monsters, a nightmare world, or dark dimension, that touches upon ours through Frazetta's brush.
