🚨 infrequent reminder 🚨
a gargoyle is really only a gargoyle if it has a spout designed to convey water run off away from the building (like a gutter and for the exact same reasons we use gutters today).a grotesque is a decorative statue used as architectural accents frequently used in gothic designs. This can be on the wall, roof, etc.

Finally finished two rush projects and this allows me to continue on with the Marginalia Tarot Deck.
Today it's the Eight of Coins which is based on The Romance of the Rose. Français380.
It's a real learning experience on duplicating all these medieval painting styles digitally.

So much going on here. Love the face on the shield of the satyr and the hybrid man with the unicorn horn. No idea what they're fighting about.
