Maybe there is a rule and I'm breaking it πŸ˜† I was using sap green watercolor in this mixture I think. Just watercolor is alright, but i wanted the glitter factor.

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead πŸ“š

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

My #FirstDraftFall story is BanditWIP and it is a dual perspective:
First is Callum, a noble who is obsessed with birds, likes being outside, and doesn’t like talking to people (unless it’s about birds)
Second is Wilder, the son of the Bandit Queen who made a bold choice to try and prove himself

I do watercolor with a hint of color shift acrylic. I used to use just acrylic thinned down, but too much makes the pages stick together.

Your monthly reminder:

Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

I'll be honest, September was low key for me ! There are two I really enjoyed, while the rest read like the same book but different fonts. They weren't bad, but not my favorites either.

October, however, is shaping up to be full of bangers.

A tarot illustration inspired by the Knight of Swords, featuring Ulric Cousland (my own customized warrior human noble from Dragon Age Origins) wearing a black armor with black fur.

He's facing out of the canvas, determined expression on his face, which is bleeding. (Technically, it's a burn wound from a crazed mage in a Circle, but you know how it is with aesthetics.) He's holding the Summer Sword (originally a greatsword of Loghain's most loyal lieutenant and a sword he punished Loghain with, I just added the little thorns/teeth on the blade, bc again. *Aesthetics*). In his damaged ear, he's wearing an earring Zevran gave him. 'It's the one thing that will make this side of me handsome,' he said upon receiving it.

He's surrounded by a pack of dark wolves. All of the characters have yellow/golden eyes, matching the leaves of the birches in the background.

An illustration by Crossroad Art of Cornelius Sawyer and Watt Johnson.

Cornelius, a man with dark hair and glasses, stares up at his companion with a joint dangling from his lips. Watt stares down at him, an awestruck look on his face. He has light hair, a little longer than his companions.

One of the goals we hit on the Kickstarter was a hardback, and @crossroadart.bsky.social has been working on the cover.
These fellas are not the main focus, surrounded by details, but boy are they handsome.

Only 26 days until release!
