I am normal about Father Jud Duplenticy

#knivesout #art #drawing #digitalart
A half bust digital portrait of Josh O’Connor as Father Jud Duplenticy. He is wearing the green liturgical robe he is seen wearing in the film, in a deep blueish-green hue and adorned at the center with golden cross morives. He is standing directly in front of sunbeams, and the messy background is the canopy of an apple tree. A single golden apple hangs from one of the branches, on the right next to his head. The texture of the drawing is pencil like, with hatching and softer techniques.

🕯️on my quest to reach art lovers & collectors, people full of whimsy who love colorful stuff & are based in EU or anywhere but the US 🕯️
I know yall are out there and I also know you will like my art!

I’m just an Italian illustrator trying to find more clients I can ship to 😭

A picture of a desk top with various stationery and art supplies scattered on it, all in green, aqua tones. There are markers, a posca pen, a green circle ruler, a pin, and a couple little drawings of plants in the same colors. All this serves as the frame for four different fish sticker designs, two are a deeper richer green and the other two are yellowish green. All four have very colorful scales with tints of pink, yellows, and even lilacs. Some stationery and art supplies lay on a desk top, all in various tones of light green,aqua and pink. There are markers, a green circle ruler, a sticky note set in various hues of pink, an aqua pin. All these objects frame multiple tiny broccoli character stickers. His face is in the middle of the stem, colored with a light yellow green and candy pink, while the top is colored in a deeper green. Various art supplies and stationery items in hues of green and reds frame two art prints on a desk top. One features an illustration of tomato vines of different colored tomatoes, gradually progressing from yellowish green to orange to red. The vines are surrounded by tiny winged and tomato headed creatures, wearing a blue cone hat, each carrying a can of paint and a brush, intent on coloring the tomatoes. They are dressed in the same summery outfit: a red vest, blue shorts and elegant looking brown shoes. The other illustration is in the same style and concept, but revolves around pomegranates, with the tiny characters having upturned pomegranate heads and being dressed for fall, with a brown sweater, jeans and boots.

Exciting announcement today :)
I am working on my first ever illustrated book/zine/thing! I have the whole thing outlined and the first 3 spreads almost done. I just posted them to my Patreon, but here’s a peek for you :)

It will be called Forever Howlong, like the song I’m illustrating!

A digital drawing, almost finished, of a woman with dark hair looking out the window at the house across the street from her, where two red windows can be seen breaking the monochrome: the drawing is entirely greyscale and has a graphite texture.

I beat Hades for the first time yesterday btw. I’m feeling all the feels. Also the tone of the game is so specific! How can something so boisterous be so delicately poetic at the same time? I love it 😭

Yesterday night I went to the last concert I had scheduled and now life feels completely meaningless like what’s the reason for even waking up in the morning if I don’t have a show to look forwards to???
