This matte painting was inspired by “The Deepest Part of the Woods”, Ramsey Campbell’s novel.
There’s a tall silhouette in the background (Goodman, the spirit of the woods) as well as a few sinister faces sprouting from the trees. Considering Campbell’s novel continues H. P. Lovecraft’s mythos, I figured the creatures from the game Bloodborne would be perfect for the disembodied, illusory organic shapes in Goodmanswood.
