December 2024 Hobonichi

My December “most days” drawings: yes a month of holidays but also a month of binge reading The Traitor Baru Cormorant and it’s sequel, which shows in a few of these 😅

An acrylic pen drawing of a potted peace lily plant.
A gel pen and acrylic marker drawing of receding hills with the odd tree and a night sky. On one of the distant hills is a tall tower with a light on. The drawing is captioned “The wizard is in.”
A gel pen and acrylic marker drawing of stylized leafy tree branches again a night sky with stars and a crescent moon.
A drawing of two women, one facing forward with a white mask covering half her face, and the other in profile speaking into her ear. The one speaking, meant to be the character Tain Hu, says to Baru, the one with the mask: “You will find no power behind the mask. It will wear you. It will eat your face.” – a quote from the book The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson
A hand lettered quote on red, orange, and yellow ink: “Her fury had nothing else to eat and so it began to eat her.” – a quote from the book The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson
An ink drawing of a cartoonish person laying flat on the floor with an arm draped over their face. The other arm holds an open book, and they are lit by a spotlight. Writing above reads “Finished reading Baru Cormorant”
A gel pen drawing of a fallen tree next to a house. Writing next to it reads: “The big tree in my parents front yard was uprooted in the wind storm.”
A gel pen drawing of a Christmas tree with colourful decorations and a star on top. Writing next to it reads: “Almost Christmas but not feeling very festive.”
An acrylic pen drawing of Cuno, a character from the video game Disco Elysium. He is a young boy with red hair and freckles. He points to his templates and is saying “Cuno doesn’t fucking care!” which is a tagline of his.
