A being of unfathomable age who's size extends through many dimensions. The Cosmic Maw is the gateway and the gatekeeper to the realm of the Ritual Masters.
This piece began with a pencil drawing, drawing dripping faces with eyes and mouths all over the place is always a fun way to start.
I used a mixture of Micron and Faber-Castell pens to ink. First doing the outlines. Including all of the stars in the mouth and eyes.
Next up was filling in the blacks and starting to rough in the stippled areas. Usually I hold off on filling in the blacks until last but decided to save the stippling for last instead.
Then came the dots. So many dots. This part is always somewhat meditative, just get lost in the dots.
I am working on a color version to share soon!
