Wow, what a cool image. And with the type of description used it could be a detailed 'Label'. And with words like 'Phantasmagorical' which I think means like nightmarish commentary/imagery or fantastic realism, leading from this particular image you can easily see the artists sureal and dark thought provoking credentials.

Another tangent on the description part could be a 'Recipe' as to get the reader into that type of mood to view that type of imagery. Or lastly it could at a stretch be like a 'Spell' leading into what will be come of you if you delve into the dark relm? This image is digital and very thought provoking.

This Artist Cam De Leon can be viewed in http://beinart.org/artists/cam-de-leon/# Which show cases figurative and representational artists whose work leans towards Pop Surrealism, Lowbrow, Fantastic Realism, Magic Realism, Surrealism, Symbolism, Psychedelic, Visionary, Esoteric, Erotic & Macabre Art.. And I also managed to find Cam's own website at http://happypencil.com which had alsorts of drawings, cartoons and sculptures and a very interactive site for viewing them.

So cool, thanks for introducing me to this Kurt .......

I like your wordy style, Kurt. What kind of art would you call this? Fantasy? Sci-Fi Illustration?
