An image of the whole composition. Painting is done on a maple slab of wood with live edges. The composition consists of a sheep and a livestock guardian dog, in this case an Anatolian Shepherd. 

The dog is positioned below the sheep, with his eyes cast upward in a reverent and submissive way. There is blood around the dog's muzzle and the dog is wearing an old style of anti-wolf collar, with long silver spikes that mimic the 'rays of light style halos' in medieval depictions of saints. 

While the dog is mostly in true to life colors, the sheep is done with pink wool, a white face and ears, and blue shadowing. The sheep is positioned above the dog, with her eyes closed as she nuzzles the dog's forehead. The sheep has metallic golden eyelashes. Above her eye, there is just the hint of hard nub, implying old horns that have been removed.

Closeup of the dog gazing upward at the sheep, reverently. Details of leather stitching on the dog's collar can be seen, as well as purple shadowing around the dogs eyes, ear, and shoulder. Additionally, the metallic silver of the anti-wolf spikes is visible.

Detail closeup of the sheep's face. The blue shadowing is seen more clearly on her face, which looks peaceful and ethereal. Her eye is closed and her eyelid is blue.her eyelashes are golden. The blue shadow hinting at old horns is more clear about the ear

Painting done on a wooden canvas that was cut to look like a postage stamp. The postage stamp border is white. The main image is of an unsettling deer looking directly at the viewer. The painting is made to look like a trail cam picture, with the main colors being dark green, grey, and white.The unsettling deer has 5 pairs of antlers, two at the top, two sets curling around the deers face, and two hanging down. The antlers have green eyes with rectangular white pupils between the tines. There is a red and blue outline on the antlers. The deer's mouth is open and it is holding a green ball of some sort. The deer has large canines and bottom incisors visible in its mouth. There is text on the painting that says "metes quod seminasti" in a digital font.

"St. Vitus Wakes the Over-sleepers" St. Vitus is an Italian saint, and like many saints, he wears a lot of hats. He's the patron saint of exorcisms, wild dogs, protection from lightning strikes, dancers, and protection from over-sleeping. Manifesting the wakefulness needed to exercise demons ❀️🌈❀️

A gouache painting of the Pescy Bird, an amalgamate mythical creature that is part parrot-phoenix and part salmon, created by Mumbo Jumbo on Hermitcraft for the PermitMaster challenge "build the most well rounded mythical creature" the peach bird has four heads which are King salmon heads. There is a small human figure in a boat in central frame, pleading up to the Pescy bird for aid in one of its domains, the sea, the sky, and struggles

Canvas is a quatrefoil shape. A brown lamb is the central figure. The lamb has seven metallic golden horns on his head and seven eyes arranged below them. The eyes are brown, with red rectangular pupils outlined in blue. The lamb has metallic gold eyelashes and iridescent shine on each eye. The lamb has a US 100 dollar bill in his mouth and a tag in his right ear that is decorated like a US flag, but the flag is inverted from how it would normally hang, implying the flag is upside down. The lamb is bleeding from a slit in his neck. The blood spilling out is pink, blue, and white. Despite the fatal wound, the lamb looks unafraid and calm. There are golden trumpets in the corners of the painting, two each facing each other for each corner except the top    point, which has the trumpet facing down at the lamb. The background of the painting is matte black, except for a iridescent red, purple, and blue glow outlining the lamb.

An acrylic and watercolor painting of an "archangel" subduing "the devil" The archangel has a hyena's head, but the color palette is not natural hyena coloring but instead deliberately white, blue, and pink. The archangel's face is turned down, snarling at the figure underneath his foot. The archangel has a rainbow cloth wrapped around him and black and brown wings. The archangel has golden chains that have been broken, a golden sword pointed down, and a golden halo. The figure underneath the archangel's foot is an old white man with blonde hair and a bad orange spray tan in a blue suit with a white collared shirt. The figure is sprawled ontop of a large pile of bills in the light and dark green of US currency. There is gold text running down the wood panel to the left side of the archangel that says "we will survive"

A sketch done in blue pencil of two hyenas facing each other, tearing a Nazi flag apart with their teeth. There is mauve text above the flag that says "Kill" in loopy cursive, and below the flag "Nazis" in the same font

Profile view of a wolf done in watercolor pencils. The wolf's primary coloring is shades of blue mimicking the natural color gradient of a gray wolf, with a pink tongue, yellow teeth, and dark purple gums. The wolf has her mouth open wide, the top of her muzzle wrinkled in a snarl. There is a strand of saliva connecting her canine tooth to her lower jaw.Her one visible eye is orange and partially obscured by her cheek as she looks incredulously down at the viewer, challenging them. There is text on the picture, the word "huh?" Written in dense zaggy purple. The background is like green.

The picture is of a blue and white wolf from a slightly different angle. This angle emphasizes the downward angle of the wolf's gaze, daring the viewer to test her.

A watercolor and ink painting of a hyena emitting smoke from their mouth. The hyena's front right foot is foremost, followed by a snarling face with prominent fangs. Out of either side of the hyena's mouth, smoke billows in yellows, purples, and whites. The hyena is making eye contact with the viewer. The hyena is colored in yellows, purples, black, and white. The background is a wash of red. The painting's style is meant to evoke similarity to Japanese art of the Edo period
