Last year I restarted my tradition of making my own calendar, and this drawing is my 2021 favourite :) That year, the theme was “pieces of media/characters that barricaded a space in my head in recent times”. Characters based on Hanani and Wanahomen from the book The Shadowed Sun, by NK Jemisin.
#there are some serious trigger warnings for that book though!!#I enjoyed it but I had to skip some parts completely#a bit sad but oh well#it's the second part of a duology; basically set in a fantasy version of ancient egypt#peace is law and dreams are magic#the first book is 'the killing moon' and I remember it as a solid experience (saved it in my 'nice read' folder on our library website)#the dreamblood duology#the shadowed sun#nk jemisin#wanahomen#hanani#couple#book#book art#fanart#fan art#sketch#(also; last year I drew shepard and garrus for october and I kept imagining my dad walking into my room; seeing it; questioning my sanity)#(this year's theme is 'women in various states of undress')#(at least there are no spiky aliens (yet; who knows))
