Welcome to the Life and Death Empire, a collection of artwork created by abstract artist, Dylan Howell. The pieces in this gallery were inspired by the colors and emotions that come with life's everyday occurrences, as well as the uncertainty of death that waits at the edge of them all, making each moment that more vibrant and beautiful for their frailty. Come in, look around, and remember... It's going to catch up with you.
