The giant heads are the astral soul traps described in Dee’s translation of the Necronomicon; think of them as psychic honeypots… if you’ve read Lovecraft’s The Terrible Old Man then you’ll already be familiar with the concept, as he was using the budget version of these guys
This woman is using the original recipe which she got from the man himself, as she was John Dee’s mistress. Which will lead some of you to ask “wouldn’t that make this an Elizabethan Secret?” No, because he didn’t meet her until the Victorian era. If you haven’t guessed yet, the secret involves the prolonging of life

Good times at #virilypolls

The girl is pretty beautiful my friend
and she has a secret…
You always know what to do to improve although what I see is spot on.
this is an old one, before I had reached my current skill level
Very nice work. There is something like a calm terror in the lighting. I am familiar with H.P. Lovecraft but have not read Terrible Old Man. Will have to check it out.

he is a minor, but reoccurring character in the mythos
The look on her face is priceless.
she knows something that you don’t know
Famous old Latin saying is “Faces you see, souls you don’t.”
do you actually know that in the Latin?
In Spanish I meant to say which is “Caras vemos, almas no vemos.”
I love those in the bg as well!
Perhaps I just love everything in this piece!!
the terrible old man used weights in bottles to trap souls, but she uses the deluxe model…
Perfect, and her eyes set it all off nicely.
