I'm a bit late but here is my fairy art!
Instead of getting close to us once a year, in the Sedimentary Lands fairies are real: they are elusive insects with specialised sound organs.

Chants of Sennaar! I'm devouring that game!

A digital color illustration for a book cover featuring four rows of symbolic imagery and objects. The first row has an ornate pair of sewing scissors, cutting a strip of muslin; tamarind fruit and leaves; a castle made of coral, light, and bone; and a chic-looking tube of lipstick. The second row has a pale swan with wings extended, turkey tail mushrooms, a praying mantis, and a small bunch of lavender. The third row has a golden apple, a repaired vase, a chunk of amber, and an origami start. The last row has two coiling snakes, a cabbage butterfly with lashed eyes on its wings, a bouquet of large roses, and a lotus-shaped incense holder with three incense sticks and green smoke.

The book cover for "False Offering" by Rita Mookerjee. Thank you for trusting me with your work and words. 💚💗

My fiancée is playing Breath of the Wild for the first time so these (100% on-model) airport doodles of Hyrulean Arms & Armor are some of the last doodles I’ll do in LA.

The image shows a scene with bright towers, Jinn that looks like a skeleton, the Queen and the angel from my previous illustration "Angel's Whisper" and chessboard floor with chess piece on it. The story is about the Jinn who can duplicate themselves to play mind games with the Queen. There are mirrors in the middle ground showing intrusive thoughts to hurt the Queen. One image shows the angel stabbing the Queen, second one shows the Jinn kissing the angel, another image shows the angel become a skeleton and the last image shows the Jinn try on Queen's crown. The Queen and the Jinn in their material form are facing each other. The Queen is holding a sword and the Jinn is riding a bright red horse. The floor looks like chessboard with red and blue chess pieces. The artwork has a frame stylized in a similar way as the towers in the background. The artwork is mostly dark with green, blue and red accents.
