Mike Egan
Hunting Ghosts On A Lion

About the Item

Mike Egan’s Hunting Ghosts on a Lion is a bold, folk-art-inspired acrylic painting on wood that combines themes of mortality, protection, and the supernatural. A skeletal figure, rendered in Egan’s signature black-and-white style, rides atop a regal golden lion, exuding an air of both power and mystery. The lion’s face, adorned with intricate patterns and deep red eyes, evokes a spiritual guardian guiding the skeleton on its ghostly hunt. The crimson red background, dotted with floating skulls and delicate floral motifs, reinforces the painting’s balance between life and death. Above the rider, pale blue ghostly forms float across the scene, emphasizing the painting’s supernatural elements. With its vibrant yet eerie aesthetic, Hunting Ghosts on a Lion explores themes of the afterlife, companionship, and the eternal pursuit of unseen forces.
