Spent a lot of time on this piece of art for my novel, this are some pics of the process.
I spent hours straight writing the same words over and over again, mostly with my left hand and holding the pen in weird ways.

First attempt at making dried blood paint doesn't go right.

Looked through all the words I wrote, inked the ones I liked best, traced them on a makeshit lightboard onto this receipt in light pencil, then inked them. This is halfway through.
