Seal vs Shark
Mun þú mik, man ek þik. Unn þú mér, ann ek þér.
Translation:
‘Remember me, I remember you. Love me, I love you’.
(Source: Inscription found in Bergen, dated before 1198) The above poem written in runes is used as pattern in the illustration.
A fight between a megalodon (a giant prehistoric shark) and a selkie (mythological beings capable of therianthropy, changing from seal to human form by shedding their skin).
Runes (Younger Futhark), for example the above poem, Icelandic magical staves, and morse code are used as patterns.
Ink on paper (and a little but of acrylic paint) 52cm x 42 cm
btw, the molotov cocktail got named that by Finns who used them when fighting back against the Soviet Union's imperialist invasion of their country, as a mocking reference to Vyacheslav Molotov's propaganda about said invasion ("we're not bombing them, we're just flying in food deliveries because they're starving!")
so i'm not gonna stop y'all from making molotov cocktail jokes, but you'd better not turn around and post soviet apologia afterwards. respect the cocktail's history
i’m telling you guys, molotov cocktails really work. any time i have a problem, i throw a molotov, and boom! right away i have a different problem
