The trireme was found drifting aimlessly across the Aegean, its sails torn and its deck scattered with broken shields and shattered spears. There were no survivors.
Among the wreckage lay the remains of a single Greek hoplite, still wearing his battered helmet. Whatever had attacked the vessel had stripped the warrior almost completely to the bone, leaving only a layer of dried, taught skin stretched tightly across his skull.
Ancient sailors spoke of enormous creatures lurking beneath the waves, capable of dragging entire ships into the depths. Whether the trireme encountered one of these mythical beasts remains unknown.
But whatever rose from beneath the sea that night, it left no living witness behind.

Whether you're decorating your space or starting your own collection of odd little beings, each woodcut is a one-of-a-kind original designed by WizardBones and brought to life through a completely hands-on process, from the first sketch to the final brushstroke. Every piece is made to bring character—and characters—into your world.
Each woodcut is hand-cut from high-quality wood panels using a jigsaw, carefully sanded, and hand-painted with meticulous attention to detail. The background is spray-painted to create bold blocks of colour, while intricate details are added by hand using acrylic gouache and fluid acrylic paints.
No laser cutters. No spray-paint stencils. Just sawdust, paint, and a steady hand.
