Art for an Ashy Wednesday
Wednesday, 24 August 2016 08:00 pmETA: I only just heard about the earthquake in Italy. I have nothing profound to say, just needing to acknowledge something a lot closer than 1,937 years ago. 🇮🇹
Today marks 1,937 years since the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius that buried Herculaneum, Pompeii, and assorted other nearby towns, villas, patricians and plebeians, unfortunate animals, barrels of fish-pickle sauce, and so forth.
I was going to do some perky watercolours with some brush pens I recently dug out of the art drawer, but ended up experimenting instead with only the grey and even greyer Kuretake Fudebiyori Brush pens. Grey seems appropriate for today!
I tried to make Spendusa look less forlorn, but she says she knows what day this is.
Damon says he just always looks like that.
I'd like to post a comic tonight, too.
