An illustration of a white bird flying through tall black canyon cliffs at sunset, with a river flowing beneath, the water catching the colours from the sunset. Inspired by Fjaðrárgljúfur in Iceland.

Yeah! Personally I'd wanted to return to doing more traditional work for a couple of years but it's definitely been an additional factor to spur me on.

Same, I'm feeling more excited about making art than I have for ages, despite... all of that... But it brings me some comfort knowing many people do care about genuine and passionate artists, human creativity and connection through art will always be powerful

I was charmed by their shared resemblance as so many caterpillars look completely different to their final forms.

QRP with your flower art 🌻

I've never been firmly in either camp when it comes to digital vs. traditional, both of them are great for different reasons. But I think right now it may be more important than ever to connect with art in a physical form. I'm also trying to be less shy about sharing my process, gradually.

These are not concrete goals, but this year I really want to improve my art and to make more traditional work, the two of which go hand-in-hand, I think. I'm a little out of practice but I really have the drive at the moment to experiment with different media so I'm following that!

I love those old buildings surrounded by modern ones! Also really love how you did the water 💙

This looks beautiful, I'd love to see it

This is amazing, I love it!

Trying out acrylic markers (and a bit of alcohol marker) for the first time with these sketchbook doodles! Dreaming of green at new year... hope you all have a good one.

Beautiful art, he's my inspiration 🖤

Here's my #artsummary for 2025!

Despite everything, I seem to have ended the year in a pretty good place. I'm taking some time to rest for now but I'm feeling more positive about my direction than I did a few months ago.

Wishing you all the best for the new year too.

Amazing work as always!!
