Every year around Christmas time I draw Esenin and Mayakovsky for my literature art account! 🎄 I’ve been doing this for a few years now and wanted to share this year’s one on here too. I’ve enjoyed seeing my art evolve through these posts over the years. (Links below are my lit art pages!)

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, and happy holidays to everyone — I hope you all have a wonderful festive time! Wishing you a lot of joy in the new year ahead. 🎇

I think these two are a perfect match for the Frog and Toad dynamic! 💚 (John Seely as Toad and Paul Paget as Frog)

Tristesses de la lune 🌙🥀

Quand parfois sur ce globe, en sa langueur oisive, Elle laisse filer une larme furtive, Un poète pieux, ennemi du sommeil, Dans le creux de sa main prend cette larme pâle, Aux reflets irisés comme un fragment d’opale, Et la met dans son cœur loin des yeux du soleil.

— Charles Baudelaire, Tristesses de la lune (Sorrows of the Moon), from Les Fleurs du Mal (The Flowers of Evil)

I don’t post sketches here often so while I work on my next piece I’ll be sharing some from the archives! Going by architect/practice so expect some posts lined up.

Didn’t intend for it to be chronological but first up is the Victorian — I love drawing Pugin in his self-designed liturgical attire because they are extremely beautiful objects of design. (Not to mention that he was referred to as ‘bishop Pugin’ by some people in his time, for his great religious passions!) ⚜️

Reflections 🪞

Composition inspired by Caravaggio’s Narcissus. Bonus material is Lewerentz in vestments (priest variations + deacon), I love liturgical garments and the ritualistic aspects of religious practice.
