White staircase illuminated with led lights (out of necessity!), a gallery wall with 5 framed images and a raven holding a small lamp. Upstairs a skylight showing a grey-blue November sky.

Got these on the wall, the first frames aren't perfect for the print, but I wanted it in our pink entryway so they'll do for now. And it's apparently incredibly hard to take a good pic of the staircase "gallery" ๐Ÿ˜… I love the prints๐Ÿ’• thanks again, @nicktankard.bsky.social !

Acrylic painting of a landscape, small lake surrounded by pink, red trees and foliage in the foreground, yellow clouds, large sky with a hint of a castle in the distance. The tones are very pink, peach, turquoise, style is abstract and loose. The painting is against a grey wooden outdoor wall.

Finished a painting, and it is *a bit* ridiculous, so decided to share. I always marvel the way I adore subtle tones and simple palettes in artworks, but can mostly produce insanity in my own paintings ๐Ÿ˜…

The customs tax is not small, (depends on value, from these over 40โ‚ฌ), but I was prepared. ๐Ÿ˜Š it does limit my buying from the UK but these are SO worth it. So no worries!

Indeed, otters are cat mermaids, seals dog mermaids. I don't make the rules

After nearly a whole month of being unable to work on these, it feels good to have made another one. Started this one yesterday and ended up wrapping it up this afternoon.

One of those commissions where the stars aligned perfectly. The client wanted a picture of the Magic: The Gathering character, Kiora, summoning Arixmethes, a gigantic living island. It turned out to be one of my favorite pieces in my body of work to date.
