~ Urban Bestiary ~ . [ SUVvehiculus Blasfemioforus ] . A particular race of the most common SUVvehiculus Familiaris. The natural habitat of the SUV is the countryside, where they can roam freely and happily. The exemplar brought in big cities, probably dued to a stressing lack of space to rest and feed and move, became irritable, aggressive and in time merely EVIL. The species diversificated, and the Blasfemoforus converted to a carnivore diet and a less meek attitude. They feed on pedestrians, are totally unaware of any traffic code whatsoever, and can be spotted in any city. The high tax of reproduction made walking in the street dangerous: the SUV can't wait to skip a Stop sign to prey on naive people crossing the street, and at times, the most bold of them can be spotted even running on sidewalk, with the typical verse "Fuck the police". . . I'd like to joke but this happened for real, some days ago. (I inverted watercolours and markers for this illustration: what do you think?) . . . #urbanbestiary #suv #elghaelsùv #creature #fantasy #fantasycreature #vehicle #citylife #urban #illustration #illustrative #markerdrawing #watercolours #drawing #expressive #expression #gesture #gesturedrawing #doodle #traditionalart #traditionalcolors #funny #vignette #ig_milan (presso Piazza Tre Torri, Milano)

~ Urban Bestiary ~ The Human Jukebox (Papagenus urbanensis) is a species brought to the edge of extintion by social stigma and annoyed music lovers. A natural shy creature, it becomes quite noisy when some music starts to play, whether in the outside or in their head. Then, each exemplar is forced to start singing or humming, regardless of their own tuning or location. . . . #sketch #sketchbook #urbanbestiary #bestiary #fantasy #illustration #illustrative #gesture #gesturedrawing #singing #papageno #humanjukebox #citylife #drawing #traditionalart #mixedmedia #traditionaldrawing #watercolours #marker #city #landscape #irony #ig_milan #instaart #instadraw #traditionalcolours (presso Milan, Italy)

Announcement, announcement! Trying to fight the lack of inspiration (my webcomic @thelastbacchae is happily keeping me very busy), I'll realize some illustration about... Peculiar people I meet around my city. I hope to make a little Bestiary out of it, and so for a start, here's a "cover" for the project. . . . #sketch #sketchbook #urbanbestiary #milan #ig_milan #vivimilano #monster #illustration #illustrative #mixedmedia #watercolours #markers #coloured #traditionalart #traditionalcolour #architecture #stylish #graphic #doodle #drawing #instaart #instadraw #fantasyillustration #citylife #torrevelasca #conceptart (presso Milan, Italy)

~ Urban Bestiary ~ . [ Gerus Sheldonensis ] . This is a particular species that dwells solely on public transportation. Suffering from a congenite and typical form of Benjamin Button Syndrome, there has never been spotted a young-looking exemplar. It's not at all intimidated by humans, as a matter of fact it can become quite annoying, in a very passive-aggressive way. Because it doesn't matter if the whole tram is empty, if you're the only one seated, and there's plenty of other places to sit on. You'll always, constantly, unquestionably be seated on their spot. . . . #illustration #urbanbestiary #urban #citylife #city #publictransportation #milan #drawing #traditionalart #traditionaldrawing #traditionalpainting #watercolours #marker #mixedmedia #monster #thatsmyspot #funny #irony #instaart #instadraw #gesture #gesturedrawing #illustrative #expressiveart #sketch #sketchbook (presso Piazza Tre Torri, Milano)
