For those wondering, a cluricaun is basically just a drunken leprechaun.

This is a logo design for an imaginary bar where all types of magical little folk can drink their cares away until the sun comes up. The only catch is that you can't order whatever you want. You could if this were a CAN-tina, but this is a CAN'T-ina, so you'll drink what you're given and just be happy it's free... considering you CAN'T pay for your drinks and all...

Yeah, all the Irish people I know are drunk more than they are lucky (myself included), so I had to represent. :#1: It's also my tribute to the work of Alan Lee and Brain Froud who make the most fantastic drawings and paintings of things that don't exist. =D

It must be all that searching for the four leaf clovers that had driven then into this turmoil of drunken frenzyness..and potatoes of course...;P

I love things that don't excist...myself included...as they can be any shape,size and colour,depicting anything that is not really there..my kinda world...it's also a realease from the realitys of the real world:D

You are one of the very few who knows what a cluricaun is, and among the very few to do anything with them! Wonderful image!!!

"Faeries" by Brian Froud and Alan Lee is the book that introduced me to the wonders of drunken leprechauns, and it's one of the best presents I've ever received. I owe all of my inspiration to that book... and the tons of alcohol I consumed to make it all seem real.

Thanks again for looking!

No. Sadly... you CAN'T. ;p

I always thought the Cluricaun were some kind of gruffy Lorekeepers. Drunk, gruffy lorekeepers of course.
Very well done. A definite :+devwatch: from me.
(and a little thanks to *SpottyWuff for pointing you gallery out to me).
