5/ ⚡️ Frankenstein’s monsters I took some inspiration from the book, but the old films are so iconic I didn’t stray too far from their established looks. And yes… burning windmills are just fun to draw. ⚡️

6/ 💧 The Creature from the Black Lagoon This one gave me the most freedom since he’s a little less locked into a single famous look. Redesigning him was the most interesting part. 💧

⚜️🗡️ Remembering the Maid of Orleans. Dusted off my St. Joan of Arc drawing for her feast day and I think it’s aged fairly well. Drawn with Prismacolor pencils on toned paper. “I am not afraid, I was born for this!”🗡️⚜️

☘️ Happy St. Patrick’s Day! The wait is over! Here’s my latest illustration finished just in time with some help from the luck of the Irish (and maybe a drop of Guinness too) 🇮🇪 This is a celebration of the patron of the Emerald Isle with a few stories behind the artwork… 🧵

But what challenges lay ahead? Evil kings, fierce Viking raiders, and worse The Druids - ancient priests and magicians with their stone idols and dark god: Crom Cruach. And he demanded blood sacrifice! 🩸

St Patrick ended the grisly rituals and smashed the demonic statues. He brought the peace of God and the good news for all. Here was a man of Faith, courage, and determination. Cheers to St. Patrick!🍻 Check out this article for more of his adventures: goodcatholic.com/a-real-wiza…
