In this episode of Radio Wasteland, we welcome Andy McGrath all the way from across the pond to enlighten us about our English cousins on cryptid experiences. I went in wondering what we would find and we found that there was a lot more there than we could have ever guessed.

Live, Believe & Dream! See You There!
Although recognized only by a few cryptozoologists, the Shadowsnake has been sighted by many photographers - as evidenced above.
The Pope Lick Monster is a legendary half-man, half-goat creature reported to live beneath a railroad trestle bridge over Pope Lick Creek in Louisville, KY. Is he an escaped circus freak or the product of an ill fated union between a local farmer and his goats? No one can be sure. Some rumors blame him for a train derailment. Some claim he frightens travelers into leaping from the trestle to their deaths, while others say he holds them down on the tracks himself ala’ Snidely Whiplash. Travelers beware! He lurks in wait……
I created this Pope Lick Monster for the “cryptid” prompt for Mab’s Drawloween Club 2018.

My first entry into the book for my project, the Dryad was my test to see how well I could twist typical human anatomy to make something fantastical yet believable. Dryads, in Greek mythology, are typically female tree spirits, youthful in appearance, who look to be made out of wood, and typically have their life force linked to a tree.
My way of presenting this, was to use the grain of wood to mimic joints, having random twigs growing out from her body, to have vines crawling up her, rooted feet and fingers ect.
Done with fine liner and water colour pencil, this took about 1 hour.

A Nessie diptych I stitched up as a surprise for a far-away friend and fellow cryptid appreciator. You can see the metallic floss mixed with DMC pretty well at this angle. It's stitched on what I think is linen from my fabric stash.

A friend of mine told me about these cryptids native to Michigan. Apparently witchy dogs are phantasms whose preferred prey are teenagers who park in secluded areas. I drew this on top of one of my photographs I took in a foggy park one night.
Since about 2006, Lake Windermere has produced about ten 'lake monster' sightings. Reports date back to the 1950s of a strange creature living in the waters of Windermere, just a few hours drive from the infamous Loch Ness. Our guest Andy McGrath, cryptozoology enthusiast and author of Beasts of Britain with over 25 years of research and obsession about the unknown creatures weighs in on Windermere’s lake monster named "Bownessie" named after the nearby town of Bowness.

EVOLVED - TEXT ONLY
For the prompt and the title I took the clue from an old analog drawing of mine. But I expanded the prompt with a description of another painting from the eighties, which included all kinds of sea creatures as uniform decorations.
The first image in this series was created with Contemporary Surreal. Much later I duplicated it , text only, for a challenge.
I liked the idea so much, I ran several different versions in different modes, some with text only, some with a seed image. The results were largely very interesting, so eventually I made a special collection for it. Check it out here: creator.nightcafe.studio/collection/KjkvnAI1xX91rYwWggRr - from time to time I may add more.
PROMPT:
Portrait of Old Man General Peckerhead in Purgatory; golden helmet, uniform decorated with crustaceans, Alphonse Mucha, h.r.giger, cryptid taxidermy, Bogomil's Universe, imperial colors, surreal fantasy
An entry in my final book for my project "Creatures and Cryptids", a project inspired by fantasy creatures across the world. The project featured things from vampires to more obscure creatures like the "Krasue". This was my entry on mermaids, or merfolk. Taking different mythology into account, the version I decided to depict was a more sultry and violent pack hunter. I took real world animals into account, giving her gills and webbed limbs. I made her colours blend with that of sea weed, giving her more, while still beautiful, of an alien/ethereal look. I wanted the book to appear handmade and aged, so I intentionally smudged a few lines, and kept the paper withered. I chose this style after researching some amazing ways people have depicted mythological creatures through out history, such as medieval wood carvings, or even more recently, TV shows like "Grimm".
Done with fine liners and water colour pencils, this took about an hour for both pages, not including research time and brainstorming, which would push the whole time total to about 2 months,
