Teeth (self portrait)
16" x 20"
acrylic on panel

Rue Morgue magazine asked me to to be a part of their 100th anniversary issue, where they commissioned 16 of their favorite horror artists to paint an original piece that exemplifies a personal nightmare.

This painting speaks of a recurring nightmare I have where my teeth crunch and crack and fall out. I did some research, and apparently I fear the loss of something "permanent" in my life. Hmmm.

holy fuck, i can relate to that: i've got 3 broken stumps of teeth right on my grill:i look like some backwoods meth head crep, and i've never evene seen the stuff: i just have naturally brittle teeth--some fucked up British genetic mutation: but i'm lucky: my gums are healthy: i've seen pictures of folks with that awful "gum disease"--or worse: NOMA: these Africans with their entire faces eaten away, only to reveal perfect, gleaming white teeth under the festering meat... the wotrld is a strange and fucked up place... i been thinking of writing a story where a guy with my problem goes into a dentists's office and forces the golfing asshole to fix all of his teeth, for free...

Haha, I have the same kind of nightmare. It starts with the feeling a few teeth are loose, when i take a look in the bathroom mirror most of them are eroded and "rotten". When I touch them they simly drop out. And they just keep comming an comming, hundreds of em, spitting them out until I cant hold them in my cupped hands...crazy. Ive heard its symbolizes bad self esteem, but I dunno....im pretty confident.

Anyways, cool painting :)

I have the same dream. My mouth gets tense and the more I try to open it the more my teeth crack up. It always ends with my teeth exploding...
