Macabre and Beautifully Grotesque - bleach on cotton

The Macabre And the Beautifully Grotesque is a Facebook page dedicated to just that. It hosts images of ghost-like apparitions, moody people and landscapes and all things cooky.

It’s got modern art and photography, but also old photographs and paintings. It really is a pretty cool selection of stuff, if you like that sort of thing, which I do. The picture above is a selection of faces made with bleach on black cotton.

I just spent a little while on there picking out my faves to show you… first up a creepy bunch of cats…
