Oh Orpheus

April 06, 2015

A few of the illustrations from the zine "Oh Orpheus" which I made to accompany an essay about Arcade Fire's use of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth on their latest album.

"Earth Golem" - 8.5x11 - Tombow calligraphy pen and brush tip markers on 170lb, cream toned Stonehenge paper 🌸 - Trying out some new materials and loving them 😗 - Omigosh I actually drew this two months ago. It's been a tough go at productivity and creativity for me this last little while - I feel like I've said this before 🙄. But I'm really starting to think about changes I need to make in order to reach some of my goals in the next ten years. Good to be back! Thank you to everyone who sticks around and supports me, even through those long, silent months 💙✌️

My best nine of 2018 featuring work inspired by @macintyrerath @craig.gleason and the dundeon drawing challenge from @dungeondoodles @bodieh @redjarojam and @ajarofbees - 2018 was a rough year for me creatively, but my goal was to get some more of my original work in this summary than I did in 2017 - AND I GOT ONE! The nature based "Giant Saguaro" broke up the fan art. - Thank you everyone for your support, here's looking toward 2019 🎉
