I don’t get emotional about literature much, but when I do, it’s over Jane Eyre’s ‘Do you think because I am poor, obscure, plain and little that I am soulless and heartless?’ speech. Charlotte Brontë wrote that for ugly girls everywhere.

Aaand the final unfinished collaboration is complete! These three collabs were sitting unfinished and sad and now they're finally done! I'm super happy with how bright and vivid all the colors came out @leviathansbrush sketched this one out a millennia ago, and I inked and painted her. She gives me mad Vixen vibes too. And her living snake tattoos are water snakes of some variety- I wanted their cool colors to contrast with her warm color set. I'm also in love with her hair 😍 . .. ... #thedastardlyduo #mohawkstampede #leviathansbrush #art #artislife #artists #artist #snakes #artistoninstagram #collab #collaboration #collabart #artistscollab #snaketattoo #artistsoninstagram #draw #ink #inkdrawing #watercolor #watercolorpainting #paint #painting #watersnake #blackgirlmagic (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI6BhgjHRk4/?igshid=1w7mngmalr9et

Another collab piece I finally got around to finishing! I didn't post it yesterday because it was my birthday! Yay me! This one is with fun warm colors. I used the same idea with the light too. This time it's coming from the tattoo 🤩 which is a cool idea all on its own. I love the moths 🦋 ... Line work and concept done by the amazing @leviathansbrush while I inked and painted it 🤩 . .. ... #thedastardlyduo #mohawkstampede #leviathansbrush #art #artislife #artists #artist #tattoo #tattoos #artistoninstagram #collab #collaboration #collabart #moths #artistscollab #mothtattoo #artistsoninstagram #draw #ink #inkdrawing #watercolor #watercolorpainting #paint #painting #redheadgirl (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIZtjJunJXX/?igshid=oon4300ssjwz

I realize I only come out of my art cave during October, but now i've got the plans! So here's a fun collab piece I finally got around to finishing. There's a few things laying around here that need finishing, and even more planned! ... As always, the other half of this glorious collab group: @leviathansbrush did the initial line work and idea, then I went in and inked and painted it. I used a mostly cool palette, and I challenged myself with that light source. I think we did good 🐍🐍 It's been a hot minute since we dusted off the @the.dastardly.duo page, and here's hoping we can keep the cobwebs to an acceptable level 🕸🕸🕷 . .. ... #thedastardlyduo #mohawkstampede #leviathansbrush #art #artislife #artists #artist #artistoninstagram #collab #collaboration #collabart #artistscollab #skulls #artistsoninstagram #draw #ink #inkdrawing #watercolor #watercolorpainting #paint #painting #owltattoo #tattoos (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIESo6pnW-M/?igshid=c8s6582qogyq

Gotta make sure to post the final art piece in between my own celebrations! Last up is Harvest Festival, and I figured that this world would have a celebration of the last harvest before winter. They'd have a parade and lots of lights and feasting. I figure the Reaping Spirit (red winged, skull in front) is the main spirit they celebrate too ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for the delightful prompt list :) . .. ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october #harvestfestival #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHCJtp8nsyZ/?igshid=11xeo9h23lblv

I meant to post this earlier in the day but oh well, we're here now! This one is "Ancient Rituals." In it, we have the third member of the friend group, Aerys, and his shop. He's a merchant that trades in exotic and hard to acquire goods. His ritual is for luck and prosperity 😊 ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for the delightful prompt list :) . .. ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october #carvings  #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg #ancientritual #ancientrituals #Aerys (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGyXNEqHha2/?igshid=xhtlrtv4gr82

Next up is Folklore. There's an old legend in Ygg's world of how an angel fell to earth and incinerated everything around them. When they tried to fix it, even more was destroyed. The whole world could have been destroyed if not for the Nox Knight. The Nox Knight flew down from the sky and enveloped the angel, and all the fire, in their large wings, suffocating them both. Legend has it, they're still intertwined ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for a delightful prompt list :) . .. ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october  #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg #folklore (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGlcUwGHPzF/?igshid=1kynp31rrery8

Next up in exploring this fantasy world i'm creating, we have Ygg's place for the prompt "Midnight Feast." The three main characters do what any normal 20-somethings do: hang out, get fucked up, set things on fire, eat and carry on. From left to right, there's Aerys, Ygg, Emrys, & Ygg's familiar, Mahadoh. Ygg lives in a tree house on the edge of the town/ village and is the local Druid. She's not officially the town's Druid (there's a whole Order), like how Emrys is the official Alchemist; she's there for a whole different reason...! ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for a delightful prompt list :) . .. ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october #carvings  #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg #Aerys #Emrys #Mahadoh (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGX8rXDHtok/?igshid=1tucm4fanat1j

Second prompt down- Wicked Apothecary. This is Emrys, the alchemist, and one of Ygg's trio of friends. He's silly, friendly and loves to experiment and discover. He has large birthmarks on the points of his body along with a few Trade Tattoos. So while his Apothecary isn't really "wicked," he's still the premiere alchemist of the town. ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for the delightful prompt list :) . .. ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october #carvings  #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg #emrys #alchemist #apothecary (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGLX_2pHXh7/?igshid=1649k2ps04mbf

Ah ha, I look pretty pretty good for a dead bitch 🤣 October prompts give me life and this one for #drawtober2020 makes me so happy! First up is "Carvings" and I decided to explore more of my world, like last year. We have an artisan in the marketplace who makes cute wooden toys and statues. She basically lives in her traveling stall. Not all craftspeople and stall owners travel though. This town, and Ygg, are pretty firmly established in this area ... #drawtober2020 @drawtober Thank you for a delightful prompt list c: ... #mohawkstampede #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolors #art #artislife #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paints #paintings #october #carvings #yggdrasil #yggthedruid #theworldofYgg (at Cary, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGA2ds7HGHN/?igshid=wdym5sc7atdn
