this is my final drawing on watercolour paper. if there's something crazy-wrong looking, let me know by 6pm pacific time. Far West Almanac is a free, bi-monthly music and culture magazine that focuses on the Americana rock 'n' roll scene and smoking weed and all that. I'm doing the next cover. The main article is about Gogol Bordello.
The Spirit: The Spirit is a creature who exists without boundaries. She is pure energy with an equal mix of human and animal. In Order to thrive she must feed off the energy of a living creature, preferably a human. When she appears she brings he human sacrifices to a state of human being, equal to her own. While they are in this state they experience euphoric ecstasy, but they can't sustain t for long and eventually their souls are drawn out of their bodies and into the body of the Spirit. The Spirit aides in this with a hypnotic, repetitive dance. The spirit does not have much of an inner life to speak of, and appears vivacious. She is the pinnacle of energy that cannot be contained.
