I suppose I should make a post for #portfolioday

I'm Skutch. I draw stuff. I mostly do editorial illustration, portraits and character illustrations but I've recently begun work on my first graphic novel!

The Hearth (8/21)

A colored comic page in which one dark-haired white woman lies in the snow, bleeding from an arrow wound, and another pale woman with blonde hair and a cloak on runs toward her. The blonde drops to her knees, her breath fogging around her as she weeps in despair, then looks up from her mittened hands as she realizes the dark-haired woman is still alive. The last panel shows her dragging the injured woman into the shadow of the setting sun.

Dialogue:
P1: No no no no I don’t—
P2: I swear to you I did not know—I was only hungry, please—I cannot bear a witch-curse. I cannot—

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 13

Grandmother ominously descends the stairs.

"Grandmother! I just came from the stable! The horses are all gone!"

"They're- You stupid little girl! Did you leave the barn door open?"

"It- it was- was all shut u, but the horses are all missing. Grandmother, what are we to do?"

"We, I... That boy- damn him! This is the influence of those rapscallions! I know it! I just know it!"

Grandmother storms out the back door leaving Patience alone in the kitchen.

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 12

Patience runs from the barn towards a round stone ruin in the pasture. She climbs atop and look out over the countryside. A few small farmhouses pepper the landscape along the narrow river. The Pasture is empty. It's far gate is closed.

There may no longer be any purpose in rotating the feed.

Patience runs into the kitchen.

"Grandmother! The horses are gone!"

Patience's Grandmother calls back from the top of the stairs

"Patience, why are you back here already? And what in heaven's name are you yelling about?"

The Hearth (1/21)

A sapphic horror comic about witchcraft and hunger in the dead of winter.

An illustrated cover for a short comic called The Hearth by lainey williams. A cabin sits in a clearing in a snowy forest. The small windows in the log cabin are lit yellow and there is a trail of blood through the snow leading to the door. Smoke rises from the cabin’s chimney to surround the title. On either side of the smoke are illustrations in the style of Karelian embroidery, showing stylized geometric patterns in red thread. On the left side embroidery section, there is a depiction of a woman kneeling. her hands are stained red and she wears a headscarf. Opposite her is a woman standing. Instead of a left arm she has a wing. Over the top of the image, two geese shaded in red fly over the cabin and smoke. The trees all around the cabin are shaded in dark blue.

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 11

Patience swings open one of the stalls.

"Hit there! ... Missy?"

The stall stands empty. Patience checks the other stalls, finding them empty as well.

"Franny? Hera? Oh no."

Our lifeblood. Drained away.

Patience runs through the barn and exits through the far door into the yellow field beyond.

"No! No! No!"

Best of luck to you on your project! Comics are a ton of work but there's nothing quite like them!

Thanks! It took me several months to get this first chapter put together. I'm just starting on the second and hope to have it put together a bit quicker now that I've figured a few things out!
