Quote: Remember there’s someone out there reading the same page you are - illustration and quote by geekycleary. Image is of a fantasy reader scene with a gold glowing sword leaning against a curled and aged tree. A steaming cup of tea and an open book are abandoned on the grass nearby while several birds flying towards a gold, crescent moon is seen overhead. Art by geekycleary. My fantasy scene drawn in Procreate. In the foreground is a sign post with 2 directions. ⬅️ is “faerie forest” ➡️ is “mundanelane”. The signpost is at the Y of a yellow, dirt road. Grass, undergrowth surround the ground below the sign. Directly behind it on the ground is a wizard’s wand, the brightly-lit end is pointing towards faerie forest. On the left, behind the sign is a leafy bush. Hidden at the bottom of which are two tiny yellow eyes, a nose and pointy ears. On the right behind the sign is a fluffy, rumpled blanket with a book on it left open. Sparse grass, roots & rocks pushed aside sit around them. Further back behind the blanket is a tree stump with an axe. Its point stuck in the center. Perched on the edge of the right sign is a crow looking towards a second crow flying in from the left carrying a small, rolled letter. Low hills & 3 trees are in the background. A small faerie house is in the top left. This art by geekycleary is black & white with gold accents. “My My illustration of an old style metal hour glass with black, steaming sand in the top section of the hour glass trickling down to the bottom section of the hour glass. Only a small amount of sand is visible at the bottom all of which is engulfed in an orange & yellow crackling flame. Slow Burn is hand-written at the top in orange. Art by geekycleary. My illustration of a tiny, free library inside of a mushroom. Three rows of haphazardly leaning books are inset into the stem of a bright, red mushroom with white spots. Grass and undergrowth surround the mushroom’s stem. The background is a textured, off-white canvas. Art by geekycleary. My drawing of a rat with a tiny, brown leather pirate hat on and one ear sticking out from underneath the hat, inspired by the book character Huck from Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson. His little paws are clutched in front of him from nervous fidgeting. Huck has realistic coloring with dark grey fur on his body, white fur on his tummy, and a well groomed appearance. His fur-less tale curves behind him and points to the left. Huck has a kind expression with a slightly upturned smile.

Pencil Sketches

My graphite drawing of a wingless dragon perched on a pillar, its talons digging into the stone bricks. Its body is lean but muscled, with a spiked fin on its back and tail and horns on its head. Its tail is slightly curled and its mouth is a bird-like beak. Its shadowed eyes are looking towards the bottom right with a dark expression. Art by geekycleary. Pencil drawing by me of a young girl, in a billowing mid-calf length simple dress, running up a garden path to delivery a package at the house. The house has artful but overgrown plants covering most of the roof and hanging down the front of the house in tendrils which make the entrance dark and mostly obscurred. The scene was drawn from the Ghibli movie Kiki’s Delivery Service. Art by geekycleary. My pencil drawing of a small, sleeping dragon curled up around itself with a spiked back & tail, scales covering its body, long sharp talons, two horns on its head and a pointed mouth. Its wings are slightly open and covering most of its body. The black and white character was drawn in a sketchbook. The off-white color of which surrounds the character on all sides.

His flaming hands are hanging on to the top of two chopped-wood logs that have charred under his hands. The black and white character was drawn in a sketchbook. The off-white color of which surrounds the character on all sides. Calcifer is a character from Howl’s Moving Castle, originally a book by Diana Wynne Jones and was later made into a movie by Studio Ghibli. Art by geekycleary. My pencil drawing of a tall, ancient rock and tree sitting amongst the weeds and grass. The tree on the right has only a few leaves and most of the branches hang over the rock which is about 2/3rds the height of the tree. The rock has deep grooves with moss growing inside them. The black and white scene was drawn in a sketchbook. The off-white color of which surrounds the character on all sides. Art by geekycleary. My tiny portrait drawing of Alice inspired by the book Alice In Wonderland. The artwork is of a girl with long, light colored hair and a large bow wearing a cocktail length, empire waist dress with ruffled sleeves. She’s looking forward with a curious expression. Her right arm is up with her hand lightly touching her face while her left arm is across her waistline. White Apple Air Pods sit at the bottom and pencils sit diagonally on the left side framing the drawing and giving a sense of scale. The background is the off white of the sketchbook it was drawn in. Art by geekycleary. My pencil drawing of the Cheshire Cat from Alice In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. The cat’s face, shoulders, and front paws are intact, and the rest of him is made of long strips looped into the shape of a cat. The cat’s feline appearance was based off a breed called Russian Blue. The black and white character was drawn in a sketchbook. The off-white color of which surrounds the character on all sides. Art by geekycleary.
