Phantom Series- Phantom I- Reflection

Phantom I – Reflections was inspired by my years working at a haunted Halloween attraction in the woods of Maryland, a site layered with Civil War trenches and an 1800s cemetery. Stories of restless spirits were fueled by unexplained occurrences and the eerie history of the land. In this illustration, a ghostly figure emerges on Halloween night, stumbling upon its own skeletal remains in a forest clearing. The spirit lingers, bound to the earth and unable to move on until the injustice of its death is reconciled.
