Klaus

The world calls him many things: Father Christmas, St. Nicholas, Kris Kringle, or simply Santa. ⁠

But folks up north just call him Klaus 🎅🏻⁠

Finished up my version of Klaus that we started on stream this week! This started out as a traditional sketch that I did for fun and was vibing with it so decided to finish it digitally. I loved the movie Klaus and took a ton of inspiration from it and sprinkled in a bit of viking inspiration in there as well. I did some research and discovered that a lot of the traditions of Santa stems directly from Odin which I thought was super rad.⁠
