The cover for WE'RE HERE 2024. An illustration (in watercolor) of an earth-toned wild hunt tapestry with muted rainbow-y accents. The lead figure is a brown-skinned elf man with long hair and an antler like crown. He has top surgery scars and wears rainbow-fringed hose with thigh high boots. He rides a massive white elk. Other figures include a tan skinned falconer, a chubby darker skinned femme archer with a fro, a knight riding a unicorn with her girlfriend riding behind her, a faun with a pan flute, a shirtless bald person with fantastic eyebrows and long nails blowing a horn, and four fey looking hounds. There is also a rainbow pastel jackalope and three rainbow pastel ravens that seem to also be members of the hunting party. The foreground is made up of Millefleur style depictions of pansies, green carnations, lavender and roses.

Very happy to share that my wild hunt tapestry painting for the We're Here 2024 ( @neonhemlock.bsky.social ) cover has made it into Infected By Art Vol.14!

Death's Gentle Descent
I've been playing Hades and thinking about Thanatos (and that beautiful pinned butterfly keepsake!) so here's a Leyendecker study that went quite wonderfully awry.

Painterly portrait of Peter Falk as Columbo, cigar in hand, mac on and twinkle in his eye

Thank you for 14k!!

Here's a Columbo, may he bring you luck 🥲

Achilles and Patroclos, standing next to each other in front of a raging fire. Achilles is outfitted for battle and looks wistfully into the distance, while Patroclos ties some laces of his armor, also looking sad. Behind them and above there's the mosaic of a warrior in his chariot.

My assignment for Winona Nelson's SmArtschool class: Choose a favorite book and illustrate a cover for it.

I picked "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, and my goal was to capture a similar bittersweet tone as the novel has.

WOWIE THIS IS GORGEOUS

Hades style commission for @ammywolff.bsky.social

I’m excited to share my finished piece, “Memento Mori”!

This took me approx 45 hours spread over the course of 2 months. I work full time, so I was only able to work on it after work and on weekends.

What’s your number 1 take away from 2025? Mine is clearly this: We’re not going anywhere.

Digital painting of a knight in armour carrying a shield im trans pride colours. There is a heraldry unicorn with a bloody horn rearing up on it. Above the words Resist Rejoyce Remember. A decorative border shows dandelions.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance.

They won't ever be able to get rid of us, no matter what. No amount of hateful legislation can change the fact of our existence.

Happy N7 Day!!! I love these games with a tender and reverent love, and I'll definitely return to drawing more fanarts.

And which Mass Effect characters are your favorites? Who would you like to see in my paintings? I'd love to hear!

Watercolor painting of a harpy woman. She has blonde hair bellowing upward, her entire body is covered in feathers, and her legs are leathery and ends in bird feet with sharp talons. Her wings are half folded, and she is standing on one leg over rocks by the sea.

A painted illustration of Occtis Tachonis from Critical Role campaign 4. He is looking over his shoulder at the viewer, cravat and suit slightly ruffled with the motion of turning, and his patchwork fox Pin is curled comfortably over his shoulder and half-nuzzling him, fluffy tail arcing around behind.

occtis won household fave status in like 3 seconds tbh 💚💜 #CriticalRole #CR4

another study with the new procreate brushes that I’ve been chipping away at 🦉

Who is the villain in this story?

Also, hire me for your studio. I like to paint lotsa stuff

Crying Knight in a black shiny armor on a red background

A painted illustration of Astarion from Baldur's Gate 3. He's walking down a sheltered stairway on the streets of the city, one hand holding a dagger while the other holds a blood-soaked kerchief. While his upper body is obscured in shadow, his red eyes shine through with a eerily satisfied glow. Blood runs down the steps behind him in his trail, implying he has freshly fed.

At last, an Astarion painting! I have long wanted to depict our favorite pale elf, and finally he spoke to me and brought this painting forward. And what a blast it was.

Pentalion the Paladin is an evil saint I did for Draw Steel. I had a lot of fun with this one >:)
