I post about twice a year. I'm much more active on my reblogblog, @Hanribanri, or my aesthetic blog @Bonald

A little late message for Yom Hashoah, Israeli Holocaust Remembrance day:

This year I participated in "lighting" a virtual ner neshama, (lit. Soul candle) in memory of one person who died in the holocaust. Tibor Aker, born in Hungaria, killed at age 10 in Auschwitz.

Because of technical difficulties I saw some other names. Yosef Manleh, killed at age 4. Shmuel Bas, 16. Judith Levi, 10.

With every name, I thought of this line. Lives are measured in infinities. Every life taken was a world unto itself of infinite potential. And there were six million of them, an unfathomable number; and so many children.

The Darkest Part of the Forest, by Holly Black

I've wanted to make this drawing since literally 2014, but was always too intimidated by the background elements. I guess I've grown.

The palette for this piece came from coolors.co ! Very useful for people like me, who are just shit awful at making color schemes

Ivan's face looks out at you. You see his garish, sickly features. And as the sun cures him of his vampirism, he takes a deep breath into burning lungs, and feels it for the first time in a century.
