Day five: The Bookhouse Boys

I wasn’t sure what to do for this piece, and finally decided on a more elaborate insignia for the secret society based off the pine tree and sword design on the patch Harry gives Coop in season 2. I love the resulting image a lot more than I thought I would, I’ll probably do another version in color (or maybe a linocut!) once Inktober is over.

ID: A black and white pen drawing with a square composition. In the center is an upside down sword over a pine tree. The tree’s roots reach upwards and wrap around two branches that form the right and left border of the piece. At the bottom is an image of two hands clasped around one another flanked by maple leaves and seeds. In the background are two mountain peaks with rays of light behind them, which transition into a black sky with white stars and sycamore trees. End ID.
