The Parishioner is baptized by the Chorus in oil.

The Parishioner damns. The Chorus slaughter.

A couple of years ago, I reached out to @wyrmsfornerves.bsky.social, @cabbagecomics.bsky.social, and @bertacious.bsky.social to collab with me on an experimental parable wrapping up my feelings on this current breed of Christian Fascism.

It's titled MONOLITH.

Merry Christmas one and all!!!

Happy Holidays, everyone!! I'll take the opportunity to share this starter pack full of my amazing fellow colorists!

Drawing of Daisy in a white peacock dress in the hands of Gatsby. Publishing synopsis reads “ In which Nick Carraway develops a parasocial codependency with Gatsby—an aspiring couturier with a fabricated identity— until control shifts within New York’s criminal underworld and a deadly, reignited obsession with a former starlet shakes Gatsby’s grip on reality, thus threatening Nick’s ideal American muse”

✨PUBLISHING ANNOUNCEMENT ✨
At long last, my Great Gatsby retelling - a psychological thriller/drama graphic novel filled with vintage glamour - is getting published! #GreatGatsbyIIE

Despite everything, I feel like I lived life to the fullest this year and made some new works too🥺 #artvsartist2025

Happy Holidays!

Greyscale sketch of a comic page layout. Panel 01: Profile of Emperor Nero, liquid drips down his chin. Panel 02: A woman holds a child's hands. Panel 03: A young Nero shows his mother, Agrippina the Younger, a bird in a garden.

Found some old layouts for a comic about Agrippina the Younger & Emperor Nero I had kicking around for awhile. Never quite developed further but I think about Agrippina's lost memoirs constantly now

I am a bit slow to respond to social media stuff rn but I do love to discuss art-making! Color theory especially is one of my favorite things and I’ve been meaning to put together some quick resources to share with people
