Drawing made with various inks; the golden color is achieved with bleach. Vessel sits on the seashore, a sword hovering above him, and above the clouds, a starry sky with a moon in eclipse is visible

A linocut depicting a figure swimming upward straight into the gaping mouth of a monster that cannot see in the darkness of the water
Close-up of a toothy mouth
I once read that if you fall into the water at night, you may not know which way is up and which way is down, and thinking that you are swimming toward the surface, you may actually be sinking deeper and deeper.

Black and white pic of Vessel with blood dripping from his mouth, sitting in the ground surrounded by plants. There's a creepy shadow with eyes spreading out behind him. when I had first sketched this I was listening to Take Me Back to Eden. I just kept that going when I pulled this sketch back up from my sketchbook.
/Day 7-9: Garden, Eyes, Choke
I was trying to post it yesterday but I forgot you can't save drafts on here and shit got deleted. anyways, I don't like drawing plants. I do like drawing plants but I don't. also def used an old sketch to finish this.

black and white pic of the Vessel surrounded by the other tokens as he's summoning them. The idea was stuck in my head so I just ran with it. as far as "silence" and "arcadia" goes ...well, there's a hand on Vessel's throat and they're in their Arcadia era costumes so...lol technicalities~ (but for real I felt like I was gonna kinda repeat prompts so yeah)
/Day 4-6: Silence, Arcadia, Summon
I'm a bit behind but that's kinda normal tbh. what isn't normal is that I managed to finish 2 of these despite having a little Yorkie bounce off my arm. anyway I really like how this turned out.

Vessel reading a book in the gate leading to a garden full of blooming hydrangeas
Close-up of the character - yes, gold shines in the sunlight
pic using grey scale markers and Sakura ink pens. the runes on the side say "Anomaly, Bury, Emerge" using these 3 words I came up with this idea. A body being pulled into the ground and being taken over by the sharp vines. The Vessel being pulled up into the air, emerging from the body. And the broken moon in the sky with the tentacles and teeth/claws coming out of it as the anomaly.
/Day 1-3: Anomaly, Bury, Emerge
decided to use this Sleep Token prompt thing as practice. did struggle a bit but it worked out. I liked how it turned out. Also I'm doing these in groups of 3 because fuck trying to do a drawing a day with this busted ass arm...

finally, a prompt list I can finish!
This is how I sleep every night, so just look at this image for the next 31 days.
