The Night Gods - Painting I

This is my first finished painting for the collaboration I'm doing with Hive account@richq11. He's been writing The Night Gods and The Night Gods II here on steemit and we're combining our efforts to publish the two stories along with my paintings into a book.

The Night Gods I - the final with the links to the previous chapters
The Night Gods II - part XV, with the links to the first 14 chapters

This painting will become the cover of the book:

Things that aren't things, forms without forms, real yet ethereal, seen yet unseen.

The painting is 50x70cm (20x28 inch), oils on canvas. Here are some details:

They are the old ones, older than time itself, ageless, wraithlike demons drawing us into the darkness of our souls. Or is it their souls that we are drawn into...do they live in us, or we within them?

They lurk there somewhere in the ether, our nightmares are what gives them form.

A close-up of how I let the paint drip on the canvas and mingle. Yeah, that's how I paint:

More Night Gods come, both from Hive account@richq11 and me!
