I used to walk across this bridge to work 5 days a week, for over 3 years. Seems fitting it is the first in a journey.

Old personal project. I didn't finish it, but I really like the messy first sketch

A page from a log book. There are three Polaroids taped to the inside. One of a group of whale barnacles, one of the Abberated whale barnacles, and one of the Iron Clad Watcher. There are blue strips of paper under the last two, but there is no text to accompany them

Last #Dredge art for now.
Made my own version of the creature log book. Never got around to adding the text.

Really enjoyed breaking down the art style and trying to recreat it.

Some regular and nasty whale barnacles inspired by the game #dredge from @blacksaltgames.com

A dark snail looks curiously onwards. It has a slick shell and triangle shell pieces along its sides and bottoms. It has 4 eyes that are glowing yellow and orange. It is set on a 2 x 6 grid, taking up the left 4 squares.

Fell in love with the artstyle of Dredge from @blacksaltgames.com

Wanted to make a lot of critters, only had time for a few.

Iron Clad Watcher.

"It's eyes pierce through the dark. Shuffling along the sea floor, it watches and waits, looking for something".

Large puffy seed heads spill into the air, as a shy ghost looks outward from a gap between the plants

I had a lot of fun making something messy.
I really love the woods environment in paper mario the thousand year door.

The enviornment is filled with white leaves and grass that look delicate and articulate like lace, and there are areas of soft tall grass to run through.

4 cats sit on a large gnarly root, or perhaps something more like a bone. Light illuminates their figures. They have pointed tails. 3 are much smaller than the fourth.

Some spooky cats

Feeling a little lonely. Painted the second version much later. I like both, even though they feel quite different to me #krita #digitalart #sadghosts

A ghost floats in the mist, trees behind it dissapearing into the gloom. It's a harmless looking ghost, maybe even cute

That feeling when you're waiting for guests to arrive

A sad ghost is floating out of thick red twisted brambles

Caught in the brambles #digitalart #sadghost #krita

A bird with a big red eye is landing on a thin tree branch in the middle of some fog

Perhaps this is his parent? I didn't make a plan, just wanted to draw a bird with a big red eye #krita #digitalart
