In a vast chamber lined with square concrete panels, a woman grips an iron ring to hang suspended in a sideways T. A taut chain extends from the ring on a diagonal down to another metal loop where she anchors her bare feet. Gravity tugs on her fiery orange hair as she reaches down to touch a broad band of mist. The hood of her loose white top spills down as do both sleeves, one bunching at the shoulder to expose her armβ€”her torso prevents it from falling fartherβ€”while unobstructed the other sleeve billows loosely. There is some curvature to the wall behind her, which tapers inward at the top. Boards are tacked in staggered lines extending ladder-like up the wall. A grungy tactile delight, the place looks weathered with tattered cloth draping the concrete in places. A variety of openings are covered by rusty grates or metal plates.

THE REACH (1999)
Acrylic on Canvas - 48” x 30”

Almost a Lumen painting, in which figures are trying to work their way out of enclosed spaces and get into the light.

I used a model for this one and it was quite difficult for her to take this pose and hold it long enough to capture the gesture. 1/3

drawing of a teal skinned goblin with dark green hair standing somewhat facing away from us and twisting to face us. she has a mischievous expression. she's wearing bright orange chaps over black leggins, an off white tank top, and black fingerless gloves, with her feet wrapped in bandages. she has a tail with a tuft of fur on the end of it the same color as her hair

looks like it was designed for FDM printers, and I have a resin printer. however I have the kind of resin made for articulated figures, I'll just have to add my own supports.

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves.
Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone.
That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins.
If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after.

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

photo of a sketchbook page featuring some doodles of a more realistic nidoking. What this is not a photo of is that blokees nidoking figure who really thought this was about him. The ego on this guy is out of control.

The very fact they actually used real animation cels for this short film in 2026 is absolutely insane and awesome. Probably the best music video I’ve seen in a LONG as time. Pure artistic eye candy.

I’ll be excited to model literally anything but I’d die to get to work on some dragons or anthros again! They’re so much fun for me to make - so meditative too! So if you have any cool OCs you’d want a bust of … I’m your fella 😎🧑
