Papa Emeritus II

Rendered in stark white charcoal on deep black stock, this piece captures the second singer of the band Ghost, Papa Emeritus II, in a moment that feels both inviting and ominous. His skull-like visage emerges from the darkness, crowned in ritual regalia, while an outstretched hand beckons the viewer forward—part benediction, part demand. The high-contrast medium emphasizes sharp highlights and ghostly textures, giving the image a raw, reverent intensity that feels pulled straight from a midnight ritual.

Printed at 8×10, this artwork preserves the grit and nuance of the original hand-drawn piece, making it a striking addition to any wall—perfect for fans of occult imagery, heavy music aesthetics, and dark devotional art. Whether framed or displayed as-is, it commands attention and rewards close inspection.
