Linn olofsdotter biography

Oya by Alberto del Pozo (1945–1992). Also known as Yansa, Oya is Changó’s third wife. She is the goddess of the winds and of lightning and is mistress of the cemetery gates. Passionate and brave she fights by her husband’s side if needed. Her favorite offerings are papaya, eggplant and geraniums. From Santeria at BibliOdyssey.

Austin Osman Spare is a good example of the dictum that quality will out in the end, no matter how long it remains buried. Overlooked by the art establishment after he retreated into his private mythologies, a substantial portion of his output was equally ignored by occultists who wanted to preserve him as a weird and scary working-class magus. One group dismissed his deeply-felt spiritual interests in a manner they wouldn’t dare employ if he’d been a follower of Santeria, say (or even a devout Christian), while the other group seemed to regard his superb portraits as too mundane to be worthy of attention. Now that Phil Baker’s Spare biography has been published by Strange Attractor we might have reached the end of such short-sighted appraisals and can finally see a more rounded picture of the man and his work:

[Kenneth] Grant preserved and magnified Spare’s own tendency to confabulation, giving him the starring

Illustration isn't just print. Not anymore, not for a good long while now. Personally, this illustrator got on with the program to make concept art for games. Sue me.

Anyway, pre-production art for film, television, animation, and, yes, games is a huge field and a lot of really talented illustrators are pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into it. H.R. Giger isn’t really and illustrator, but he did dip his toes in that particular pool in late seventies when Alejandro Jodorowsky was supposed to be making a DUNE movie (based on Frank Herbert’s masterpiece) and invited Giger to work on set, costume, and prop designs, giving him complete creative freedom. What a gig.

Eventually the project burned up in the development hell and it was probably for the best, since the universe would probably implode from such a heavy concentration of crazy awesome (did I mention thatPink Floyd were supposed to create the soundtrack and Salvador fucking Dali was at one point cast as the Emperor?). Several of Giger’s designs for the film did survive though, and, man, do the look good…

It bothered me for a long time that Giger’s work, while beautiful and appropriately atmospheric, didn’t really mesh too well with Frank Herbert’s books, but then I read
