Beware of the Dogma by Graeme Hindmarsh

Digital composite, 2007.
From the Dogma series.
© Graeme Hindmarsh 2007.
The complete series can be found here.

A winged dog demon emerges from a flaming pentacle in the underworld.

I don’t often do dark pieces – this is an exception. It explores the role and relevance of superstition in religion.

Wow the cutesy Dogma ones were lovely.

But wow, this one is so dark. Could almost be a horror illustration!

Does it say something about me that I am drawn to the darker image most?

nice work

Thanks LostBoy1 – Glad to be back! :)

Thanks Celia – This image seems to polarise people. My partner hates it with a vengeance! Yet other people think it’s the best of the series.

I think this is awesome. I’m glad you finished it in the face of adversity at home LOL. You can feel the heat.

Thanks Damian – I’ve learnt through experience not to show anything until it’s done, otherwise I’d never get anything finished! ;)

Ooh! The hounds of hell. Complete with flaming pentagram. Nicely conceived and rendered. You’re very talented. But you know that already.
Thanks for your encouragement, Roy – it’s nice to know that I’m not an island!

Funny..really funny..I laughed pretty hard at this one..very cool work! Your choice of breeds is interesting..and right on target with the intensity of the subject matter :) (They are one of the most intense breeds I think).
Thank you copperhead! Warranted or not, they do have a reputation although I’ve personally known some who were very loving and gentle. :-)
