Gargoyle - Inktober Day 1

in #hive-1743012 years ago

Phew! What a prompt! As always, I googled what the prompt meant. I learnt that gargoyles are actually used to drain rainwater from the roof in order to prevent damage to the walls of a building. That was news to me!

I’ve always identified them is menacing creatures made for the sole purpose of frightening people & causing mischief : )
So learning this new fact got me excited. Overtime I guess it’s use and symbolism changed as the world progressed.

I wondered how I could bring my characters into this. I did a number of rough sketches before finally getting to the main illustration. This took a while, and looking at the painting, I wish I could do more, but here’s the process anyways!

I enjoyed every bit of it!
