About Me

Layout by CoolChaser

My name is Damien and I am an Artist at heart. I love anything creative. I am here mainly to promote my self as an artist. I would also like to meet people in the same mindset as myself. Creative and fun yet slightly dark and twisted. I also love the darker side of life and my favorite holiday is Halloween!

My Interests

Costumes for Kids is program designed to collect new or used costumes, make-up, costumes for disabled children to give them the Halloween they deserve. The program has officially launched this year and we are looking for haunted attractions, individuals, halloween enthusiasts and more to donate their unused costumes. These costumes in return will be distributed to children who are less fortunate, and children with disabilities including hard to find costumes themes for children in wheel chairs and special needs. All we ask is that you contact us, and ship your costumes to us so we can have them cleaned and sent to the families in need to give the children a very special Halloween every year. All sizes are acceptign from infant on up. Don't let the name fool you. We also accept Make-Up (unopened), Halloween favors and decor and such to bring the whole Halloween experience to these children and families. For more look at our Items Wanted or Needed page. We will also have posters available to download that you can put up and start your own drive to help this cause. Not every child is able to celebrate Halloween as they should so let's give them that chance to escape hard times, disabilities and special needs by bringing them some simple joy.

Art of all kinds. Drawing, painting, sculpture, re-borning dolls, photography and other forms of art. I love the horror genre. I specialize in Portraits and gothic and dark art. Visit my website here

Bio

Damien is a self taught artist with a penchant for spooky subject matter and the darker side of life. He does a bit of everything from drawing and painting to sculpture and room sized murals. Damien has been doing art ( in one form or another) sine he was a small child. He has only been doing it professionally since 1999. Damien specializes in portraits and spooky, scary, creepy artwork. He does other work as well but prefers to work with a darker subject matter.

News

Damien will be attending the Ironstock Haunt Conference, June 27-29 2008 in Tell City, Indiana. Damien will be there displaying his work as well as selling it. Come see if you can find something you are just dieing to have for yourself!

Newest Projects

Damien newest project is a line of re-born creepy dolls called the Broodlings . These are hand painted and decorated dolls that have a demonic or dark twist to them. Some have fangs, some have horns, some glow in the dark. You just can never tell what special dark trait a Broodling will have. Adopt one for yourself and give your heart to one of them willingly (or they just may take it without your permission!)
