Description
Created for Month of Fear Challenge. Inspired by the song "Pet Sematary". Originally I was going to use the frame for a different piece, but I didn't like how it looked together when I tested it and decided to make a new piece for the frame instead. The background of this piece is rendered darker than my usual scale for this reason, to match the contrast of the frame. "I don't want to be buried in a pet cemetery/I don't want to live my life again" was a catchy phrase; I wanted to make art about it. They say cats have nine lives, might as well have nine eyes.
