Bruce Brenneise 🔜SCG Houston & Baltimore

Aw, thanks!

❤️

Thanks, Robbie, definitely glad the right mood is coming through!

Thanks, David! I enjoy working on full-art MTG cards, but the one difficulty is that it means extra work extending the art to playmat size if it seems like folks want that.

I've been getting a LOT of people asking for this one, so sure, who am I stand against the will of the masses! 😅

Thanks for going into it! My own experience with pens so far have oddly leaned harder on cheap ballpoints, but those also sometimes leave splotches of ink where I don't want.

Why do other ones make you angry? Always curious to find new good pens for a variety of things.

Thanks!

Thanks so much!

Thanks, Wendy!

I was recently honored to have my work featured on the cover of SFF magazine, @bcsmagazine.bsky.social. To the left, the cover, to the right, the full piece!

Thanks!

Still really proud of pulling off this artist proof painting! Those cards are a SMALL surface to be painting on.

Thankfully, I've got two and a half weeks at home. Then the long march begins with Houston and Baltimore. See some of you there!

Yeah, I asked the client what their favorite relic for defect was!

Thanks!

The defect is an excellent robot to kiss, hahaha!

They headed off to their new home! "The Defect", 20x24" acrylics. I had a really great time with this one.

You are correct!

Yeah, great nickname, I think!

I want to talk about generative AI because of the defeatist impulses chronicled in this article. While simply expresssing a defiant attitude cannot always change lived-in reality, in certain cases it definitely can. This is in part because, early on, a conflict can exist at a perceptions level. 1/?

Day 2 of FanX! Come say hi if you're in Salt Lake City this weekend: booth AA 244

Thanks, Erika!

I'll be at FanX in Salt Lake City this weekend! Come say hi if you're there; I'll be at booth AA 244. I'll have a bunch of this unimpressed astral Albatross at the Docks of Bral keeping me company.

Thanks! It was so much fun to paint.

Thanks!

Yeah, one of my earliest clients!

That's the freelance artist life! Doing cool stuff for lots of different games, books, etc, for about ten years now. :-) Glad you enjoy them!

Yeah, I felt awkward that I didn't have time to actually hang out that time, that week was a crunch! Hope we get to properly catch up next time. Full body tackle hugs definitely appreciated!
