Today’s “Folklore Thursday” theme over on Twitter is “transportation” ~ and I was reminded of these wee tiny Baba Yaga Chicken Shack paintings I did last year for a show at @gristletattoo.
“Baba Yaga in the Morning” is based on the comic/graphic novel I’m working on called Cicada Season.
“Baba Yaga in the Evening” is an accurate picture of how I spend my evenings.
(You don’t want to see a image of “Baba Yaga at Suppertime”. Eeek.)
Man it has been a while. But I’m excited for the @monthoffearart party that’s about to begin, so I’m back.
Here’s a drawing I did recently! Last month I read “Uprooted” by Naomi Novik and loved it (I actually read it twice in a week, it was great). This drawing is of the main character, Agnieszka. I really loved and identified with her story and character. And, y’know me, I’m a sucker for a Baba Yaga tale.
Max is doing a whole big awesome blog post about our process for making this mural at Soho House Chicago - but I just wanted to share some of my favorite photos of us workin’.
