a little art

[egypturnash]

From over the past month and a half. These are the designs I did for beetiger's Little Pagans site.


Bast. The heiroglyphics transliterate to "MYW".


Kali, Destroyer of Toys!


It's fishy, and it's happy, and it's cute, and maybe it's your great-great-great-great-[...]-grandmother.


Every parent must suspect this happened to their beautiful, well-behaved baby at some point.

all image bandwidth: VCL

You can get all of these on baby shirts in a variety of colors, and on adult shirts in white, at the aforementioned website. Kali was just finalized (pending a test print), and should be available soon; the rest are available now.

Now to finish up some arrangements for online print-sales... and some other hanging things!

Insulin! Insulin! :)

Great work... I really like seeing oft-depicted creatures presented in unusual ways.

Those are awesome! I particularly like the Kali one and the Bast one. Even though Kali might scare the other little kids...

[medox.livejournal.com]

I LOVE the Kali one the most, but they are all totally adorable!

I agree with the others, the Kali one is adorable... and yet kinda disconcerting. In a cute kind of way! I see Day Care Workers doing double-takes when a little kid waddles in wearing that one. ;)

mmm, yes.. the kali on a black tshirt plz

[shatterstripes.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately she's only offering adult sizes in off-white. Having some starter stock of seven different kid sizes in several colors adds up!

For friends I can do a one-off on black, but it'll be on a Hanes shirt instead of American Apparel, and cost a few bucks more ($20). Write me at vicki AT littlepagans.com if you are interested.

omg can i make something(s) for you too? this is so cool i could pop. you can see my stuff at www.eselkunst.com
how about a my little sleipnir? or whatever you may have in mind.

and i do want a black shirt kali, please.

[beetiger.livejournal.com]

Sure. Actually, I just decided to add black to the line, so no extra charge. Paypal $18+$5 shipping = $23 to sales@littlepagans.com, with your shipping info and size and all that, and I'll get it out to you.

Thanks for the link. Your art totally rocks (I've thought so for a long time now), but at this stage I'm done commissioning art for the site. I'll get to work with you one of these years, really. :)

[eselgeist.livejournal.com]

oh you're -commissioning-? pfft! *waves all that away* i have a job ^_^.. if that's the only impediment, then please allow me to make you something gratis. or rather, i'm inspired anyway, so i'll be making stuff and if you like it, you can use it (i'll send you the files to review) ^_^

[beetiger.livejournal.com]

I never object to inspiration. :)

[shatterstripes.livejournal.com]

see this commant. n.n Not mine to go printing on shirts, the art was specifically web display and exclusive textile rights!

re: changeling

What do babies like? Babies like iron!

[chirik.livejournal.com]

I'll voice my different viewpoint...

Bast is sooooooo cute!

[gealflings.livejournal.com]

heh. That Changeling picture really bears a startling resemblance to my little demon spawn.. ;) it's pretty amazing that all kids seem to actually be satan's illigitimate offspring..

[mister-wolf.livejournal.com]

It is hard to describe the level at which your Illustrator illustration skillz rock.

But it's, like, high.

These are all superb (how long have you been hiding these beauties?) and lil Kali is awesome.

I get such a kick out of Little Pagans. In times like these when I hear a new Catholic station popping up on the radio on what seems like a daily basis, efforts to reintroduce magic and charm to a new generation is very heartening.

[shatterstripes.livejournal.com]

According to the file dates, I sent off chaotic pencil roughs near the end of may, and did most of them in the first couple weeks of June. Kali got delayed due to complexity, my trip home, GTA Vice City, and some moodiness, and was dubbed Done the day I put it up here.

So, up to almost two months.

And yeah, it's damn cool to do something to promote something like my cultural values through my art. I'm not a practicing anything, but I'm sure a lot closer to neo-pagan than I am to any form of Christianity.

[eselgeist.livejournal.com]

insight into your spiritual workings = cool

[rowyn]

These are great. Very well done! :D

Great work--all terrific, my favourite: Kali!
-and by-the-by I love Aphex Twin-was listening to that album(Vol. 2)last night, as a matter of fact.

-the tooth-sucking crone(I LOVE that imagry too, heh!)

[shatterstripes.livejournal.com]

I'll be Lacheis if you'll be Atropos.

Kali seems to be a definite favorite. Her and Bast. I do not want to contemplate the symbolism of that.
