Hush Little Children

Description

I know it's a little early to be bringing out the Halloween stuff, but I stumbled upon this song here-> www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t8-_p… and I just had to draw this. xD

I actually livestreamed it, so if you'd like to see me draw this simply go here-> new.livestream.com/accounts/47… (it does start somewhere after I have the colors down and detail to the grass drawn, I thought to LS after I had done all of that.)

Meet a random character (I'll call him Morty), who watches over the lost spirits of children and guides them to their final resting place. His face is a skull to scare away all the evil spirits and demons who seek the devour and lead the spirits astray. However people often see him as a creature of death and bad luck and will hang charms in their windows when a child is sick to ward him off. In some cultures it is believed that he actually temps children away, using his orange spheres to entice and deceive, leading them to the spirit world before their time. In others he is worshiped and regarded as a great and noble guardian deity charged with protecting the innocent spirits of the living and dead children. (Those blue balls are spirits).
