Contributed to a food panty fundraiser and got this as a thank you. 😸
Brick stenciled to resemble a red and white can of soup, including the slogan "soup for my family"

I've been tracking my food intake lately and a recent typo brought me this gem from the user-contributed database. 17.5 kilos of protein? Um...
Food entry from my fitness pal's database. "Jude from geometry class" serving size 2.0 geometries. 15 calories, 5 carbs 17,581g protein.

A tip of the hat to this fancy couple, sighted on my morning walk. #morningwalk #dailyphoto
A pair of Sandhill Cranes each standing on one leg in a suburban front yard.

Gobtober 30: cursed

Not really happy with this one, but that's life!

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A tiny goblin reads his magic 8 ball - outlook not so good. He is unhappy

Looking up at high tension power pylons. They stand out against a blue sky with scattered white clouds.

Gobtober 28: hermit

I considered drawing a goblin saint who lived in a stump while birds and squirrels brought him breadcrumbs and little bits of veal. #FatherGuidiSarducci #doodah But a head sticking out of a stump seemed a little boring. So - tarot!

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
The hermit tarot card, but the hermit is a goblin.

Gobtober 27: pest

The chipmunks in our yard actually do this with my tomato plants. One bite out of a tomato, then toss it aside. Sometimes, they only leave toothmarks and don't even take a bite!

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A tiny goblin sits beneath a tomato plant, munching on a tomato. Next to them are three more tomatoes each with a single bite out of it.

Gobtober 26: elemental

Elemental chemistry is the height of gobbo science

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A hand drawn sketch shows a Goblin professor wearing a tweed jacket with elbow patches, and reading glasses on a chain around her neck. She points to a projection on a screen next to her which shows the elemental table, featuring elements EA, WA, AI, FI, & an unknown fifth element. Silhouettes of three goblin students attending the lecture are seen across the bottom.

Gobtober 24: dragon

I chickened out on drawing a dragon. But I think I found something that still minimally meets the prompt. Roll for initiative!

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A goblin Dungeon master leans over his screen to roll a d20. A battle mat has miniatures, including a dragon. To the side is a can of soda with a straw and a half eaten slice of pizza.

Gobtober 23: undead

I'm kinda surprised at how long it took me to think of ghosts as undead. I guess I think of undead as unnatural creations, but I think of ghosts as a natural outcomes (no necromancer required) Anybody else have this division?

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A fresh grave is topped with a grave stone bearing the inscription " GOBLIN R.I.P.". A candle in glass rests on the grave. A thin line of smoke ascends from the candle, gathering into the face of a goblin.

Gobtober 22: gross

Decided to be inspired by movies about ogres living in swamps.

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A goblin oozing from eye, ear, and nose munches on a rat-sicle that it holds by its frozen tail. In their other hand, they hold a balloon that is an inflated frog. They wear swim trunks, and stand calf-deep in a bubbling pool of mud in a swamp (also containing grasses, cat tails, and circling flies.

Gobtober 19: thug

This prompt seems kinda racially loaded for my US-trained brain, so I spent some time thinking about non-racial uses of the term. The old phrase "jack-booted thugs" came to mind. These guys fit the bill.

Gobtober 19: thief
This is inspired by a friend's 3-year old who was discovered one morning eating cookies on top of their refrigerator. It left me then, and leaves me today, at a loss or words.

Gobtober 18: guard

While the guard is in duty, there's nothing to worry about.

Tried to do a little shading. Not happy with how that turned out. Maybe I need a big fat smelly pen?

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A goblin guard leans with arms crossed against a safe as big as him. His eyes are either squinted or closed. He wears a cap & tie, and carries a sword in his belt.

Gobtober 16: archer

Technically, the actual archer is "just off-screen", but i think this fits the prompt well enough. Gobliam Tell?

Gobtober 15: scavenger

Goblins are always looking for a way to pull in a few extra bucks...

#quintessence #gobtober #oddartwork
A barefoot goblin wearing sweatpants and a tshirt has pulled an empty bottle from a trash can and placed it into a bag marked with the recycling symbol. Cans and bottles are visible within. Their shirt rides up over their belly, showing their navel. The trash can is full to the brim with garbage - tin cans, a banana peel, a bone, and other unidentifiable garbage fills the can. Two flies buzz over it.
