"Minds The Dead Have Ravished"
"Minds the Dead Have Ravished"
2018






These are men whose minds the Dead have ravished. Memory fingers in their hair of murders, Multitudinous murders they once witnessed.
-"Mental Cases", by Wilfred Owen
I did this series inspired by shell shocked soldiers of the First World War back in 2018 in time for the 100th anniversary of the armistice. Let us all strive to live in a world free of the ravages of imperialism and war.

I am really pleased with this piece. Feathers aren't always easy to render, and this is perhaps my best attempt yet.
