Glyn Smyth, also known under his brand-name Stag & Serpent, is a self-taught illustrator, designer and printmaker from Belfast, Ireland. Glyn’s work is inspired by folklore, myths and magick and reminds me of antique book illustrations. When you look at his work it won’t surprise you Glyn has collaborated with many underground metal bands (Wolves In The Throne Room, Sub Rosa and Unearthly Trance to name a few); his work is a beautiful visualization of their ponderous, dark tunes.
You can find more of Glyn’s work on his website, Facebook page and on Instagram. If you’d like to buy one of his prints make sure to check out the Stag & Serpent shop. Enjoy!

[…] a regular Bleaq visitor you might know I love Glyn’s work (you can read and earlier feature here) and was of course happy and excited to show one of his new creations for the first time ever. […]

I love these! There’s such emotion screaming from each one. I’d love to have prints.
Stunning work. He is channelling Arthur Rackham ;-)
Me encantó cada una de las ilustraciones, dan la impresión de ser antiguas y eso le da una atmósfera más mística aún.
These are all amazingly beautiful.
I would love to get some of these in shirts!
Thank you!
How incredibly beautiful! I am in absolute awe of your work! Well done!
