The Sandman Portraits

The Threshold of Desire

I

watched the full first season of the Netflix's Sandman and I already want more.

The Sandman is an American fantasy drama television series based on the 1989–1996 comic book written by Neil Gaiman and published by DC Comics. The series was developed by Gaiman, David S. Goyer, and Allan Heinberg for the streaming service Netflix, and is produced by DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television. Like the comic, The Sandman tells the story of Dream/Morpheus, the titular Sandman. The series stars Tom Sturridge as the title character, with Boyd Holbrook, Vivienne Acheampong, and Patton Oswalt in supporting roles. 

You can listen the whole album of the soundtrack by David Buckley on Spotify:

I made some portraits based on screenshots of the scenes.

Here they are:

 

1.- Mason Alexander Park as Desire, the personification of desire and Morpheus' sibling.

 

I made an animation with this illustration:

Desire's Dreams

 

2.- Tom Sturridge as Dream/Morpheus, the personification of dreams and nightmares and the ruler of the Dreaming.[

Morpheus, the personification of dreams and one of the seven Endless, is captured in an occult ritual in 1916. After being held captive for 106 years, Dream escapes and sets out to restore order to his realm, the Dreaming.

 

3.- Boyd Holbrook as the Corinthian, a nightmare who escaped the Dreaming.

So, go and watch it!
