Last night at Dr. Sketchy’s, we artistic folk witnessed the Possession of Penny Maple. Above you see the end result. After the jump you will see a series of digital paintings and asaulted photographs that depict the descent of poor, innocent Penny into the clutches of the dee-vil himself, represented here by his agent, Elle Xombeah. It was a night of pre-Halloween fun. Special credit for the FX make up goes to Chris Woodall. Due to a technical issue, this week you can’t click the images to see them larger. You should just lean in and look at your monitor real close.
