This was done near the end of March '07. I started it while waiting around in the courthouse. (Was selected for jury duty. Fortunately I didn't get picked.) It's a sketch, but I think it turned out pretty good, considering it's after a layoff. Thus the category it's in.
As I said, boredom. One of the things that happens when you turn 18 (or maybe 21, I don't know the laws of your state) is that, unless you have serious medical reasons or are in the military & overseas, etc., you become eligible for jury duty. A case came up & I was picked. I didn't actually get to serve on the jury because by the time my name came up, all 12 slots had been filled. But it was still 3 days spent in the county courthouse. Most of the time we were waiting. I was smart enough to bring my sketchbook with me on the last 2 days.
lol. I meant it a little more specifically. What inspired you to draw that particular subject?
Yeah, I've never heard someone say, "Yay! I have jury duty!" I just about always take something with me to sketch on everywhere. It's some thing you can do while still "doing" other things. It's a shame that several people have to be bothered so a few can do their "civic duty". My mom's a teacher and she recently got out of jury duty because of the up-coming benchmark.
Specifically? Hmm... I don't think it was anything I could put my finger on. I hadn't read any of Lovecraft's stuff in a good while before that. It was just something that slithered out of the festering stew of my unconscious mind.
