Robert Kurtzman Selling Original Oil Paintings Based on ‘Wishmaster’ and ‘From Dusk Till Dawn’ Concept Art
by John Squires · Bloody DisgustingLegendary makeup effects artist Robert Kurtzman (Evil Dead II, Misery, Tusk, Doctor Sleep) has in the past shared his original concept artwork for films including Wishmaster and From Dusk Till Dawn, and Bloody Disgusting has learned this week that Kurtzman has now turned that concept art into oil paintings – and he’s offering them up to horror fans!
The 18″ x 24″ oil paintings are only available online via Robert Kurtzman MUFX, and you can either purchase the original oil paintings themselves or prints of that original artwork.
The official press release details, “Robert has returned to his roots by painting original oils based on concept design sketches. During the strikes and the subsequent shut down of the film industry, Robert revisited original concept design sketches for various projects. The sketches are either by Robert himself or concept artist, and dear friend, John Bisson.
“The paintings range from old school classics Wishmaster and From Dusk Till Dawn, to recent art from The Haunting of Hill House.”
Kurtzman said in a statement, “There’s no other outlet for me other than creativity. Rather than sit around waiting for things to start, I had to do something. It really feels great getting back to working with oils, canvases and revisiting old friends and some new. Working on these has kept my fragile sanity and allowed me to put down the computer stylus and work with something more tangible. I’ve truly felt like I’ve returned to my roots.”
