About
DARK ANGEL🥀💀🥀
Writer, artist and creator.
I build fantastical worlds inspired by film, music and literature.
#DarkAngel was the bio tag line I used when I first began writing over several social media platforms. It has since become a public alter ego, encompassing all my creative works under one neat, weird little umbrella.
A romantic rebel at heart, I draw, write, and make, to express my inner world.
Twisted Halo is my store and online home, a constantly evolving base for current projects.
All items are made by me and are limited edition or one of a kind.
There will be a journaling, news, and events page coming soon as I have plenty of ideas in the pipeline, so I hope you'll join me on my journey of creative pursuits.
🥀TWISTED HALO🥀
A one woman show of projects in art and accessory design, derived from a life long adoration of dark romanticism, occult, and diving to the depths of human emotion and culture through books, film and music.
All items are limited edition or one of a kind, sourcing local vintage pendants and hand weaving my own chainmaille.
The current collections include:
"Pretty Vacant" :
Inspired by the alternative and rebellious lifestyle and culture of the late 70's and early 80's music and fashion scenes in the UK.
A gratuitous nod to Queen Vivienne Westwood; inventor of punk, and owner of the London shop 'Sex', meeting place of revolutionary music and fashion icons Sex Pistols, Siouxsie sioux, and the Bromley Contingent.
Expect simple DIY themed chunky stainless steel, unisex gender neutral accessories with customisable multiwear options for styling your own unique way;
Featuring Dog collars, 'O' rings, chokers, spikes, safety pins, and PVC.
"Star Crossed Lovers" :
Inspired by the forbidden love tragedy of 'Romeo and Juliet'.

"Nevermore" :
Inspired by the poems of Edgar Allan Poe.
Black gothic, crosses, skulls, love and death.

STALKING RED - Icons Of Badassery
Original portrait art of icons from TV, film, and music.
I'm a self taught artist with a love of occult, alternative, post punk, subculture, graffiti, tattoos, horror, dark art, zombies, apocalyptic, and dark romantic tragedy.
I enjoy experimenting with new ideas, media, and techniques so my style is constantly evolving though I use mostly charcoal and marker pens with a splash and splatter of colour. I am also currently teaching myself to draw with procreate and practicing the art of tattooing, a very different process to working on paper.

#TALLTALES:
Is my online RP story and character writing which began on Twitter. I have deleted this platform in response to Elon Musk's hostile takeover, firstly of social media...and then of entire countries.
I do not support him, refuse to train his AI, and will not allow him to take ownership of my content.
Some of my characters have migrated to Bluesky, though it is not currently my priority to develop RP stories.
I'm still writing privately on my own projects and am working on a novel. I'll add any necessary updates to the news page.
