Sketchtember day 3: The moon

in #hive-1586942 months ago

So I know this is weird for some people because the moon is usually so beautiful so it's a question of why some people would fear the moon. This fear is called Selenophobia and according to some searches I did, this kind of fear gets inflicted on people when something extremely traumatic happened on a night of a full moon, and when the moon was something like a highlight of a traumatic event, so it could be linked to an accident, an occultist activity, etc. And you kind of see this kind of thing in movies where they kept highlighting the night of the full moon, the red moon, the blood moon, the blue moon. IDK I think the moon concept is overused but identifying that some people do get traumatized by these things is not such a common series of event. Some says it's a secondary trauma too.

Materials: Black ink, black pen
Duration: 1.5 hours

Now this is definitely worse than yesterday, and after I said I would redeem myself too XD
What I tried to highlight here is traumatic event under a full moon. I already had an occultist event on a another drawing idea and I do still have that prompt on my list too.


I started on the moon aspect of this and I wanted to do something that just highlighted the moon. It's not a perfect circle, but it will do since I was doing this in between meetings XD


Then I did a really messy sketch of pens with the hair and eyes. I'm not sure if seeing a ghost on a full moon would give anyone trauma, but I sure would be scared out of my wits if I saw this at the windows ledge on a night of a full moon XD
I didn't even think of doing that much details on this one this time ;;-;;


I did try to fill the empty space with scribbles and all because I didn't like all that empty space around the lady. And I think I could have added highlights but I could not find my chalk and my white pens anywhere so I think I left them in my dorm room somewhere.


Unfortunatley, this is all I have time for today. I still have soooo much meetings and reports to multi-task with today so.... I will see you guys later! I hope I can do a bit more sketching later so that the next one actually looks presentable on my standards XD
See you guys another time! I will see you guys tomorrow! Thank you for stopping by!
Day 3 is done!

Those myths are famous since we were kids and I used to be afraid of Full Moon, too. It was common to scare off kids back then. Now, that I'm an adult, I appreciate it more in a good way.

I would be out of my wits and probably run as fast as I can if see such a ghost. 👻😆

Gabi ng lagim was the trauma inducing stuff that made kids scared of the moon 🤣 gosh i miss waiting for that in the old radio back then. But same, now the moon is so calming and you'd even question why people would even be scared of it
