I’m the goon that whips out a knife and runs full tilt at the guy that just killed every single one of my colleagues with a katana.

Two colour illustration of Barad DΓ»r, with Sauron's eye at the top. surrounded with the ring inscription in elvish. the sky is red with sparks and ash floating in the air, the tower is above a fiery chasm. The front doors are glowing red with silhouettes of chains and armouries. A cloud of ash conceals the horizon. This will be a banner and riso print first. Digital prints coming later this year.

Shout out to American evangelicals trying to bring about the return of Christ by deliberately becoming the beast from the book of Revelations.

Woven tapestry in cream and red wool. The word NO in big red letters above an angry red face. Im about to finish my first tapestry on a new loom I built last year. Here's a practice I did a while back that has been great backdrop for zoom calls.

Illustration of a stormy sea with waves converging as an orb lifts from the water. The lines are blueish grey on a greenish grey noise textured background.

Ill tell you this much, if I believed Jesus was about to return to judge the world I would not be proudly committing a genocide.

I can feel it approaching, The Bald Man’s Jubilee, the two weeks in the year where you can wear a t-shirt with a beanie.

Illustration. The Witch King of Angmar sits atop a fell beast, perched on the ruins of Osgiliath. He is surrounded by orcs and fire. The mountains of Mordor are in the distance. the sky is lit by volcano fire.

I think the trick is to make it look like you know how to make money when what you actually have is rich parents.

I hate when you put so much effort into a creative project you think is ACTUALLY unique and has potential, just to find out someone else beat you to it

*puts on tinfoil hat*: one of the intentional purposes of gAI is to cause climate change. The eugenicist billionaire class want that. It’s part of the plan.

2 colour illustration that will be a flag and risograph. In spiky white black metal type the word MORDOR at the top. A cruel iron wall with spiked towers on either side fortifies a gap in the black mountains. In the foreground the Mouth of Sauron rides a dead horse caring a black banner with a red eye on it. Blasted/jagged rocks litter the ground around him. In the background Barad DΓ»r stands emanating a hateful aura. A white road leads from the fortress through cruel open gates. This is for a convention in April/May. Ill release it as a digital print towards the middle of the year.

Decided the original lettering was a bit too too legible.
