My husband has a chronic illness and frequently spends weeks in the hospital. I have been doodling each day while sitting with him and many of them reflect my thoughts at the time. Often appearing are desperation, hope, frustration, sarcasm, fear.
From when my 16 yo daughter was struggling with heroin addiction. My doodles have gotten me through some very hard times. Art as therapy, I always say.
Drifloon fan art time!
“Described as a spirit formed from people and Pokémon and known in folktales as a "Signpost for Wandering Spirits". It reportedly tugs on children's hands to steal them, though it often gets pulled around instead, and children who mistake it for a balloon and hold on may go missing.”
Where will my curiosity take me, you say? Down the road of some Curious George fan art this time around!
Also, one way to honour another legend too with this here quote :-)
“Everybody should keep some grip on childhood, even as a grown-up.” - Tim Curry (1946 - 2026).
It’s taken me until the ripe old age of 33 to do a Jungle Book tribute, in spite of it being my all-time favourite film along with The Mask and Baloo the Bear (along with Donald Duck) my favourite Disney character but alas… better late to the party than not show up at all, am I right?
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.”
