This drawing was an attempt at drawing something grotesque as well as a study of a side profile of a person. Alukah is a Hebrew word that means "horse-leech", a type of leech with many teeth that feeds on the throats of animals. Inspired by Jungi Ito's "Slug Girl" and "Leech Woman" from the film Puppet Master.
I know I have not uploaded in a while, I’ve been busy, it’s a miked media kinda, water color colored pencils. Only some of it is watered though. I did this with my friend so it was a collab.
Whimsical. Fairy tale. Alter ego. Mixed media. Used real rose petals for the background. I’m not super happy with it but I’m still getting used to mixed media. I draw and paint the girl separately and then superimpose with modge podge.
