Cthulhu Taking Tea

Watercolours, inks and Microns on watercolour paper


I decided to post something a little different tonight (since I've been so focused on promoting my fantasy heroine, Chadhiyana). This is a humourous Lovecraft piece I did a couple years ago that's proved to be fairly popular. In fact, I was later approached by Innsmouth Free Press to have it published on the cover of their Collected Issues 5 - 7.


It's been a while since I've done any Lovecraftian work. Toward the beginning of my career I had written and illustrated two comic stories for the now defunct Planet Lovecraft Magazine, not to mention a few other prose pieces that haven't been published yet and some single illustrations. I do still get asked if I'll ever be returning to Lovecraft Country again. Perhaps I will in the near future (I've toyed with the idea for some time). After all, I do miss the place sometimes.

Very nice

Wow this is nice I will ad this one as one of my faves, I like the black then the white backing but then seems like it needs a black border again, this is a very creative character kind of reminds me of some old poxnora characters of that game same name but anyways nice job here.

An extra black border on the edges.

JMDeSantis responds:

Nope, just a little lemon.

JMDeSantis responds:

That's a name for it. Though I prefer Gentleman Cthulhu.

I NEED THIS AS A T SHIRT

JMDeSantis responds:

This is the first request of my artwork on a t-shirt. Thank you! Now that you mention it, however, I am intrigued about looking into this. Perhaps it will be available as such...
