Description

Yes, this is a counterpart to 'Spirit of the Moors':

Mature Content

I bought golden gouache a while ago and I wanted to try it. When I sketched in school (I have to survive somehow XD) I got few ideas...and started drawing the same evening.

Not this drawing, actually. I might have messed up what I drew on Friday.

So I started new this morning, and in the process, another creature, similar to the woman from the moors, got carved out. I began to work in elements from both drawings (the other spirit and the drawing I might have messed up).


I listened to Kvelertak's album 'Kvelertak' (like I do often when I draw), this is where the feathers/owlish things come from (their symbol is an owl).

It could be that a drawing with candles and gold will show up in the next days, this would be the one I might have messed up yesterday. I try to fix it somehow....We'll see if it will make it to this place.

Die sparsame Verwendung von Gold ist ziemlich geil.

Als ich das Bild erst sah, stellte ich mir vor, dass der Geist eine Kerze nach dem Tod eines Menschen leuchten muss. Überfördert von der hohen Anzahl von Tote (vielleicht nach einem Krieg?), muss er eine Kerze in der Hand, denn der Platz wurde knapp.

Keine Ahnung warum ich mir das gedacht habe
Aber großartige Arbeit!

Danksehr, es freut mich sehr, dass es dir gefällt! Es ist auf jeden Fall eine sehr düstere Vorstellung, aber abwegig ist sie auf keinen Fall...Am Anfang dachte ich sogar an einen Titel wie 'Spirit of the Restless Dead'...ist aber dann das andere geworden

Including a color into black and white drawings certainly takes it to another level. This really appeals to me.

I also bought some silver gouache, but I'm not quite sure if it is good to use it in an ink drawing. I'll see when I can try this one.
