Introducing Leshy; the newest addition to my menagerie of fantastic beings. A Slavic fae, Leshy is a shapechanging trickster and a stalwart protect of forests and their wildlife. The nearer Leshy comes to the heart of a forest, the larger, stronger and more powerful he becomes, until his height exceeds the most ancient oak; the further away, the smaller he shrinks, to the point that he is able hide under a blade of grass beyond the forest’s edge. I have painstakingly recreated Leshy’s likeness, at great personal expense and risk to life and limb. The image has been loving reproduced as a decal by the finest dwarven stickersmiths in this world and the seven surrounding realms. Crafted on vinyl woven from an ancient fabric of unicorn tears, ground dragon scales and pixie farts, with a secret gnomish adhesive elixir based on troll phlegm, these decals are durable and weatherproof. A perfect customization for your phone case, laptop, snowboarding helmet, Kia Soul or goblin “Moon Scraper” rocket. Available for purchase at a modest sum, alongside the rest of my rogue’s gallery of fae and mythical beasts, starting this weekend at Urbana’s Market on the Square, and Urbana’s Third Saturdays. #jvsfantasyart #decals #myth #folklore #fae #fantasyart #illustration #workingartist #slavic #leshy #forest #monster #rpg #urbanaillinois #illinois #fantasy #faerie #fairy #forestmonsters #wilderness (at Urbana, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnpbxyYBRYl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14qmzdvcd1i0a
