Haunted
Haunted, a 7.9 by 7.9 inches illustration, is created using vibrant markers, rich oil-based coloring pencils, and delicate gouache on high-quality Arches watercolor paper.
In the quiet town of Willow's End, there lived a little boy named Ezra. His hair was ghost white, almost glowing under the moonlight, and he always wore a tattered white outfit that fluttered as if caught in a permanent breeze. But what truly made Ezra haunting wasn’t just his strange appearance—it was the two ghostly figures that followed him.
In the realm where fantasy bleeds into reality, these spectral figures reflect the unseen weight carried by young souls. The two eerie protectiveness hints at a haunting maternal presence, while there unsettling laughter speaks to a lost innocence, twisted yet persistent. Together, they form a spectral entourage, guarding and tormenting Ezra in equal measure—a vivid portrait of internal struggle painted in the shadows of surreal dreams.
Ezra wandered the old cemetery near the edge of town, a place no other child dared to go. The townsfolk whispered tales—that Ezra was lost between worlds, a bridge between the living and the dead. Sometimes he would stand beneath the weeping willow, speaking in a language no one understood, his companions drifting close, their forms flickering like candle flames.
At night, those brave enough to peer from their windows would glimpse the trio moving silently through the fog. They said Ezra’s ghost-white eyes glowed faintly, like stars trapped in a child’s gaze, forever haunted but unafraid.
And when dawn broke, Ezra and his two ghosts vanished into the mist, leaving behind only a whisper of cold air and the unmistakable feeling that some stories, no matter how chilling, never truly end.
