I’ve fallen down similar rabbit holes with celtic knotwork. There’s a chap called George E. Bain who wrote about it but it’s very complicated stuff including factors and prime numbers. In the end you just work it out on squared paper.

She stands in the center, surrounded by thorny bushes and between two crooked trees, holding a baby wrapped in luminous white cloth and her eyes glowing a malicious golden color. In the foreground we see rampions growing from golden vines which intertwine like braids; in the background, in the distance and in the middle of a forest, we see a lone tower
a red squirrel knight, with body armor and a cape, holding a lance in one hand and standing on its hind legs, with a golden halo aroung its upper torso and head.
the beast (from beauty and the beast), appearing in the middle of a dense rose-bush foliage, gently holding a tiny bird in its huge paws and looking at it with tenderness. the castle tower can be seen in the distance.
toe-thrasher, a rat lord wearing a royal mantle made of white fur, thrashing in the middle of a swamp in its hind legs and holding a black flail. in the swamp, there are numerous yellow eyes

Hi I’m David, an old West Country goblin.
I was once a sculptor but now do illustrations based on folklore, mythology, & wildlife. I paint the odd landscape.
In winter I make cigar box guitars and repair musical instruments.
I have been known to build bread ovens & funeral biers.

It’s really not much fun. You have to leave your dignity at the door & you’re there for hours cleaning the saline gloop off, but compared to smear tests I reckon us fellas get off lightly.
Interesting though - was told I had twins.
I like the fact you kept your hat on

Witchy news tomorrow. So wonderfully witchy that Jean-François Portaels' witch might crawl out of her lovely dark cave. Hihi. 🧹🖤

Dave Seed, never a radio DJ. Old socialist.
Having a convo on FB with a friend (I know, - not prepared to leave it yet whilst I still have friends there though) about people we looked like when younger. I looked just like BBC radio 1 DJ Mike Reed. Him of the bonkers and unpleasant right wing ideology.
Pleased I no longer get mistaken for him.
Someone say it was the fiftieth anniversary of the Rocky Horror Picture Show a couple of weeks ago? This was 1988. Faces blurred out to protect the innocent.

Bastard commissions. Why do I do this to myself? Sketches absolutely not working.
This is supposed to be a giant tattooed troll woman giving a polar bear coat to a human character. Just looks like someone’s mum getting them ready for school.
Anyone ever seen a troll or a polar bear coat? I haven’t.
