“God's a house. Which is not to say that our house is God's house or even a house of God. What I mean to say is that our house is God.”

hi johnny truant hiiiiiiii
sketch + explanations under break
^ sketch/lineart since you cant really see it in the actual drawing lol.
afaik, theres no real concrete description of what he looks like (aside from very vague stuff + his arm scars), so i just made some shit up based off his lifestyle lmfao.
i reallyyyyy wanted to make the golden ratio blue to match the house, but it just didnt look good no matter how i twisted it around - dark blue just didnt pop.
im happy with this in the end, though - i think i made the vision work.
i love johnny too, his footnotes were a breath of fresh air after the Horror bits of the navidson record. though i am taking him at a bit face value, i.e. assuming johnny is like a real person and kind of just ignoring some more creative theories on his identity.

Just gonna dump some of the house doodles here. It’s really hard to try and convey the immortality of a house, and some other thoughts too.
Also been trying to convey that one paragraph from the book where Holloway and his team are venturing through the house that should lead out to the backyard, but instead Karen is standing back out there with nothing but the sky, grass, and silence.
I like the idea of it being this infinite sprawling landscape, but only being confined to a house and the space that surrounds it. It is infinite yet finite.
Can’t fully word my thoughts, but I like to describe it as being “Just a 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦.”
