A Cornish Litany

Woooooooo oooo oooooooooo

Woooooooo oooo oooooooooo

Good evening my little grammersows. We recently received a commission to come up with a postcard design based on the old Cornish Litany illustrations dating back to the 20′s.  A litany has to include the saying (or a derivative of)  ‘From Ghoulies and Ghosties and Long Leggetty Beasties and Things that go Bump in the night Good Lord Deliver Us. It had to be mainly black and white in keeping with the old versions but in our own Cornish Knocker style. We think it turned out very well and the new owner loved it.

I used to draw Cornish Litany work back in ye day so it was nice to get involved in it again.

ACEO’s

ACEOs or Art Cards Editions and Originals (Clumsy name but you can’t blame me for that) are little collectible cards measuring 3.5″ x 2.5″ but can be any media, medium or style you care to use. Extremely popular on Ebay and even have their own category. So we thought we would do some and share the love my luvvers.
