Doll-Like Fetal Paintings

Lostfish’s Disturbing Surreal Art is Ethereal and Soft

— April 26, 2014 — Art & Design
This mesmerizing and slightly disturbing surreal art by French digital painter Lostfish is whimsical and looks very similar to the characters found in the fantasy world of Alice in Wonderland.

The artist has created this disturbing surreal art in such a way that it makes you uncomfortable to look at it, yet its alluring crafty techniques make it just irresistible to look away. The paintings are very femininely centric, with images of regal looking, blushing, delicate women adored in jewels and crowns.

The underlying theme of fertility is visually subtle, but is blatantly obvious in all the symbolism used like the the springing flowers, rabbits and eggs. It is clear that the artist is influenced by Victorian art because of the way he creates his doll-like, pale skinned women.
