Pen sketch of a two storey defence building made of stone blocks. There is a doorway, flanked on both walls by small openings or embrasures, accessed from a flat roof over the lower storey. Steps lead down from ground level to this lower storey which has a doorway in the end wall and a window in the loner wall.

Pen sketch is a doorway and recessed window embrasure in a wall made of stone blocks partly rendered worn concrete.

If you see this, post funguys.

Nikolas Roerich (1874-1947, Russia) was a traveler, mystic and painter. He was mainly interested in Slavic paganism, Scandinavian sagas and religious myths from medieval Russia. In his work he tried to evoke a bygone world in colorful patterns in which people lived in harmony close to nature.

Going to start up Animal Crossing for the first time in years, just to see if the island has devolved into a Lord of the Flies bloodbath in my absence.

Hopefully Nook's desiccated corpse isn't hanging from the flagpole.

A tossed about ruin atop a pile of rocks, capped with crumbling Tower base.

A skinny tree on top of a cliff with mountains in the background. Wind blows leaves past the tree toward the viewer.

An old stonework wall with an open doorway. Behind the doorway trees can be seen.

A closeup of a rat terrier having an existential crisis.

Trying to ramp up for October-drawing-event, so here’s some old pictures.

Working on a sketch for a character I’m running in a friend’s d&d game soon.

Putting this back up again because it is one of my favorite things I've made.

An ancient ruined tomb set into a rocky ridge-side. Stairs the right of the tomb entrance lead to grassy hills above. Stone blocks can be seen littering the landscape. The tomb-face shows three stoney entrances. Before the tomb is littered more stones.

A sci-fi desert landscape in which a tower can be seen in the distance. The tower is made up of dome shapes and a large globe on top. In the foreground can be seen the outlines of travelers with some kind of beast of burden. Rocky outcroppings dot the dunes.

A sci-fi scene in which some sort of facility is seen in the background, made up of towers and various shapes. Satellite dishes and an antennae are installed on some of the roofs. This facility sits on a rocky ridge. In the foreground a skeletal figure in a space-suit lies among the rocks.

A tombstone or some sort of stone slab sits among stones and a dead tree on the top of a grassy hill. Ivy covers one side of the stone, and writing or carvings can be seen on its face.

Here's some random ones from my new sketchbooks. I like having a bigger one and a littler one at the same time.

A panting by Nicholas Roerich of an American landscape in Arizona. A wide river is running through a desert landscape between two cliff or canyon sides. The background portion is painted in blues and the foreground ridge is painted in brown.

Speaking of ol Roerich, I only recently learned that he did sons paintings in America in the south west.

This is from his Arizona series. He also did a number of sketches and paintings of the ancient pueblos.

(Nicolas Roerich - 1921 from his Arizona series)

A painting by Nicholas Roerich of the Himalayas. A large range of mountains is lit by either a rising or setting sun. They are colored in blues, purples, and pinks. Clouds hang low around them, and a fog obscures the foreground where the foothills can be seen barely peaking out.

Nicholas Roerich traveled up through Sikkim and through the Himalayas all the way to Siberia on a spiritual pilgrimage gaining inspiration to paint beautiful paintings of mountains.

All I got for references is a google image search inundated with AI trash.

(Himalayas by Nicholas Roerich - 1933)

A snowy mountainous scene, with a snowy fir tree featured in the center. Snow is draped over broken paths along the mountain.

I keep wishing for snow, thus the snowy mountain sketches

A cabin in a snowy mountain scene. It sits on a snowy bank overlooked by rocky cliffs.

Before bed, doodlin on my iPad

A winter mountain landscape scene. Among snowy crags can be seen three pine trees. Overlooking them is a cabin, stairs cut into the rock leads up to the cabin.

Another little winter scene, this time with a cabin.

A snowy mountain scene, featuring a pine tree and a scraggly dead tree.

A bit of sketching on procreate before bed.

Brrrrrr

Hilarious meta-observation about algorithms and, I guess, active users. I have ~4,500 followers on Twitter vs ~110 here.

I shared the same thing (the illustrated whitewinter dnd map) in both places. I got more responses (and visibility) here.

JOESKY TAX: flee the four-armed albino snow ape!

A good point well made.

I wish bluesky allowed editing after-the-fact, but I will endeavor to be mindful of that going forward.

A version of The Tower Major Arcana tarot card. A tall tower, with the roman numerals "XVI" engraved into its base, sits on a jutting outcropping of rock. It is being struck by lightning, causing an explosion and five rays to shoot from the opposite side. Three windows are aflame and two people can be seen falling from them. Behind the tower groups of clouds block out most of the starry sky.

A lake scene in digital brush ink. In the background, across the water, an island with pine trees can be seen, shadowed in contrast to the light breaking through trunks and boughs. In the foreground, the bank is also shadowed, showing the shapes of cat-tail plants and tall grass.

A mountain landscape scene. Snowy mountains in the background, made up of four visible peaks, rise above a rocky foreground. The mountains are alight while the foreground is contrasted in dark. A small shack or cabin sits in the foreground with a spindly fence. A window can be seen to be lit up.

A scene showing the side of a mountain. A rocky and cold looking mountainside upon which can be seen an old cabin or shack. More mountains can be seen with little detail in the background.

A few more older arts.

A version of The Tower tarot card, a lake scene in (digital) india ink, and two cold mountain scenes.

Trying to get myself juiced up to do more; it's been awhile since I've done some serious art.

Hopefully this change in social media will herald an increase in motivation.

That is one gorgeous birb

Thank you!
