This is literally the 40th and last drawing in my current sketchbook, and yet? The first hammerhead shark I’ve crafted for this…
“And in your drеams, everything is exactly as it seems
You wakе up, everything's forgotten
Life's a dream, life's a dream…”
- from ‘Life’s A Dream’ by Modest Mouse.
Only my second time tackling the lusca as a drawing subject… hopefully it checks out!
“The Lusca is a legendary sea monster from Caribbean folklore, primarily said to inhabit the underwater caves and blue holes near Andros Island in the Bahamas. Described as a massive hybrid—often half-shark, half-octopus—or a giant squid/octopus, it is rumored to reach lengths up to 75–200 feet.”
Inspired by a turn of phrase my girlfriend used to describe certain ex-friends of ours who got lost to conspiracy theories and generally problematic attitudes. Needless to say they’re haunted by all kinds of ghosts, wherever these people are!
