Thuni the Uni

I was sick last week (still recovering) but managed to sneak in one crafty-type item. When I’m not collecting comic book art, I tend to favor line art pieces a la Keith Haring and really like the Tokidoki line, which is based off of one artist’s work — Simone Legno.

So… This happened. Thuni is an inspired mashup of miscellany. Just got an idea and went with it, really. Kind of nice not to plan for a change. If you’re wondering why the lines are weird, well…I drew and filled this in with Sharpies and Sharpie paint markers, which are oil-based. Different effects between the two and, when the urge to doodle strikes me, I may go over the lines again just to reinforce the color. (If you want to see a larger image, you can click on these.) A good experiment, either way, and it’ll definitely help me sort out how to paint my mega-sized Munny. Well, that and I’d REALLY like to recreate those door-knockers from the Labyrinth.
