DÖDHEXEN I SVARTABERGSPARKEN


Artwork made for the Klubb Död and Nachthexen Goth Picnic June 29 2024.

How would goths picnic? Blue sky and green grass isn’t inspirational or stylish at all. On a pentagram of course! So I drew three fancy ladies for Nadia, Adina and I, clad in outfits based on Victorian Halloween costumes.

Drawn by pen on A4 paper and coloured digitally, by Ella Moe 2024. 



POSTER I chose a simple graphic design with a slightly Victorian nod, at least if you squint.



FB BANNER I avoided adding text and graphic design as the banners look so different on mobile and desktop. It’s boring, but it works. I debated added a texture or background, but thought it would compete with the illustration.



INSPIRATION I so enjoyed researching Victorian Halloween costumes. It’s such a big favourite of mine.  






As a Swede I was especially fascinated by the “star sticks” that seem to have been popular. They remind me of those that our Star Boys carry when we celebrate Lucia (see last pic).
