From the Artist
- King
- Oil on Panel, 11×14, 2014.
Another in my Horror Portrait series, I needed a third to complete my trilogy of terror (the other two are Lovecraft and Poe). Who better than the current master of horror, Stephen King!
I included a few references to his works that I love, such as Pennywise looking over his shoulder. There is also the Dark Tower from the Gunslinger, and the blood running down his face from Carrie.

King: A Stunning and Realistic Portrait of the King of Horror
King is a piece of Stephen King Art created by Michael Bielaczyc, an award-winning fantasy artist. The painting depicts a surreal and creepy portrait of Stephen King, the best-selling and award-winning author of horror, fantasy, and suspense novels. The artwork captures the essence and personality of King, who is widely regarded as the “King of Horror” and one of the most influential writers of the 20th and 21st centuries.
The artwork depicts King’s face in a close-up view, with a dead expression and a direct gaze. His eyes are black voids, reflecting a cosmic horror. A spooky caricature, the art strives to capture the uneasiness of King’s horror work.
The artwork is a perfect example of Stephen King Art, celebrating the work and life of Stephen King. Stephen King Art appeals to fans and admirers of King, who enjoy his stories and characters, and who appreciate his contribution to literature and culture.
