A "Horror-Comedy" Fantasy Illustration. This painting explores the mortal enemy we call "fear," and subtly suggests the ultimate cosmic absurdity of this illusory, fictional fabrication of the mind. "The only thing to fear is fear itself," because the objects of fear themselves are really only projections of ourselves from the eternal-consciousness perspective. All fear is based on the idea of harm to, or loss of physical life; but if one can adopt the idea of a spiritual existence, physical fear subsides, and we prevail; thus having a good laugh! Hence, the idea of a Horror-Comedy piece.
