Art the Clown 27x40 Almost 60 hours and it’s finally finished. I don’t know if I’ve ever been more proud of a piece I’ve worked on. I love these movies! ❤️🪓❤️🔪 #TERRIFIER #ArtTheClown #horror #darkart #damienleone #davidhowardthornton #clown #HorrorArt #HorrorCommunity #spooky #surrealism #art

“Foreign Policy” 9-28-2023 This piece still weighs heavily on my heart. I feel powerless & trapped in this miserable system by these miserable people. This is the most evil creature I’ve ever created. He knows you will do nothing about his crimes except vote for him again. #usa #politicalart #war

What’re you doing if he asks ya boo “What’s your favorite scary movie? 👀 🔪 👻 We all need some laughs in this f’d society. 🤷 Let’s get silly. #shitpost #Ghostface #booktok #maskedmen #maskedman #spooky #darkromance #zaddy #memes #mask #thirstythursday #boo

“Untitled” 12x12 created in Procreate This piece took right at 7 1/2 hours and was a blast. It reflects the beauty I find in isolation and how I float on in this loneliness. #surrealart #eyeart #surrealism #loneliness #creature #alien #weird #surreal

I took a break from working on Uber Eats earlier today from 3 to 6 and put in a few more hours work on this Art the Clown piece. I think I am at almost 42 hours of work on it now. #terrifier #ArtTheClown #divebar #horror #horrorart #davidhowardthornton #terrifier2 #fanart #wip #spooky #darkart

“Satanic Sunrise” 😈 ☢️ Originally completed in Oct 2023 & then reworked in 2024 this piece is really special to me. Surrealism will always hold a space in my soul. #surrealart #surrealism #satan #demon #darkart #clouds #spooky #lucifer #heavymetal #digitalart #TNartist #occult #twistedart #artwork

WIP 30 hours “The Scream of Society” Edvard Munch and his representation of anxiety in The Scream really move me to share mine. #surreal #surrealart #surrealism #artwork #art #anxiety #emotions #TNArtist #wip #visualart #trippy #weird #americanArt #digitalart #Procreate

"The Scream of Society" WIP (26 hours) I feel like that being from Edvard Munch's The Scream. This society we are forced to exist in is absolutely melting my brain due to this red & blue terrorist organization masquerading as a government that controls us by force. #surrealart #surrealism #painting

“The Scream of Society” Work in progress At 18 hours of work now. Expressing anxiety this way is helping me deal with my own, art is really something else. Edvard Munch’s work is the muse here big time. He is a huge influence on me. #surrealart #surrealism #surreal #anxiety #emotions #society

“The Scream of Society” 36 x 36 Work in progress in Procreate. I feel like we are all the being from Munch’s The Scream, stressed out in this absurd abyss of anxiety we dare to call a society. #TheScream #surrealart #surrealism #weirdart #TNartist #surreal #spooky #emotionalart #haunted

From 2022 to now. I’ve really come a long way. Grinding for thousands of hours on paper and in Procreate has really saved me. I’m very thankful for all of you that have shown love and helped me. #artjourney #selfimprovement #artist #TNartist #procreate #artistsoninstagram #darkart #blackandgray

“Celestial Cave Painting of the Great Old One” Ancient cave art fascinates me, as does the Cthulhu mythos. This piece was a blast to make. #Cthulhu #caveart #hplovecraft #cosmichorror #greatoldone #lovecraft #scifi #occult #mysticalart #TNartist

I still feel extremely proud of this one. I have had this idea for a while to express my emptiness, I just had to wait on my skills to catch up with my weird brain 🤣. Art is pushing me and testing me in the best way. #surreal #blackandgray #portrait #art

“I Feel So Alone” 1-18-2024 in Procreate Created in two intense sessions while Them Bones by Alice In Chains played on repeat. This experience healed me and expresses how I feel pulled in every direction by the nonsense of society. #darkart #surrealism #emotional #nightmare #society #usa #spirits

“Cosmic Fire of Cthulhu” Time passes and it just waits. 18 hours of creative bliss and much needed escape. I painted this in a lot of short sessions over the past two months. #Cthulhu #hplovecraft #wickedart #surrealart #surrealism #sinister #deity #creature #fire

“Falling Apart” This took 7 hours to complete in two intense sessions. My first self portrait in many ways. The last few months have been hell. I’m hoping this piece will help me leave them behind, even if just for a while. #darkart #emotionalart #emotions #darkness #existence #thevoid #art

“The Ancient Eye” It is here, waiting. It has always been waiting. This being is older than fear itself. Made in Procreate. It took right at 14 hours to bring this to life. It was a blast. #darkart #spooky #creepy #darkness #horror #sinister #creature #fantasycreature #wickedart #blackandgray
