I’ve heard of an Eerie, a weird sort of Sidhe, maybe an Ellyllon, who left the Síd to wander through the known and unknown lands. She found her peace, her place to be, within an enormous cave, filled with glowing waters and curious spirits. The spirits followed her, first at distant, then up close, for she created stars to paint the cave ceiling in colors of vision and wonder. Her reason was unclear, but there were those who said that she is a keeper of forgotten dreams – that she found and kept alive what others lost. That is why she is called the Sanctum Shepherd and that once dark, now glowy cave became the safest space under the sun and moon, for nobody would dare to disturb the peace of one of the three eerie sisters.

The swamp is a secretive and sometimes monstrous place. It’s a treasury of things long hidden and forgotten – and the keys to unlock them are found within, if you dare to step a foot into the misty grounds.

Step by step, the stars shall guide,
Through dark nights and barren land wide.
Where eyes like lanterns gently glow,
And secret paths beyond the known go.

The wind will weave a whispered tune,
Of dreams that dance beneath the moon.
No fear shall hold the wanderer’s name,
For all who seek are kin the same.

So take the path where none have been,
Past hills and stones, through veil and green,
For those who walk with open heart
Shall find where wonder’s journeys start.

Fly far, fly free, and do not fear nor grieve,
The spirits sing to those who bravely leave.
And when the stars are all you see,
Know this: they remember thee.

Liselotte, who is already featured in the last post, now also decorates this sketchbook cover and even got a new friend – a dragon-frog – ready for any adventure!

Small originals (ACEO-size; 6.3 x 8.9cm) of some of my weird critters, drawn with ink and white pencil on toned paper. On the left is Liselotte, a velociraptor who excitedly realized she can breathe fire. On the right a wolfish dragon named Agor with a weird laugh and an obsession for bad jokes.

Another sketchbook cover, this time featuring a Qilin, with shiny silver highlights.

First piece of a new painting series, expressing my passion for and dreaming about nightly skies, nebula, and celestial beings.

As the phoenix is one of my most favorite fantasy creatures it was time to also draw one on a sketchbook cover – of course with shiny golden details!

The concept of this work came to my mind during last summer when I was visiting Japan (I guess the temple makes this obvious, doesn’t it?) and I started working on it around the end of last year. Many hours of work already went into this and many, many more will – and I really enjoy this journey, no matter how long it will be. There is a lot of world to see, isn’t there?

The last post for 2024 is dedicated to my highlight of this year and one of the best experiences of my whole life.
