I can't do analog coloring right now because I'm preparing for my solo exhibition, but once it's over, I plan to take my time and do some analog coloring too.

Traditional art - a stylized gouache painting of a flowering plant. The blooms are pink, and 3 of them have white cats sitting in the middle of each, as if they had grown out of the flowers.

This is where cats come from 🌸

Illustration of a ghost lady emerging from a pond. She has yellow eyes and is covered is what appears to be blood. The atmosphere is dark and eerie.

I'm compelled to repost her from time to time 🥀

The writhing mass of a Shoggoth, a monstrous amalgam of horrific parts, occupies an icy corridor—and much of the frame of view. Ectoplasmic flesh bubbles with eyeballs floating to the surface. Some eyeballs are white with human irises while others are green with vertical slashes or blood red with monstrous black slits. Toothy maws groan to the surface while tentacles probe upward to the ceiling. Tendrils slither and curl while the occasional protruding claw snaps.

I don't know what possessed me to spend time on this hideous thing, but...it insisted on crawling out of my imagination.

Three wide-eyed hares surround a decaying canine head. The back foot of a hare with long claws can be seen in the canine's mouth. A front foot is to the left. The piece is stylized, in black and white.

Swatch card of my cicada ohio themed repeat pattern for horror author Carter Keane. White rectangle swatch card with the text "Babe&Oak cicada repeat pattern for author Carter Keane" with my arch stamp at the bottom right. Inside the swatch card is part of the pattern. The swatch card sits on top of a finer scale print of the pattern as a background. The whole thing is in dark fossil colour way of grey purple and and muted light warm grey.

Plot description for the horror novella MORSEL by Carter Keane for Tor Nightfire on top of the repeat cicada pattern in the dark fossil colour way. Text reads “The Blair Witch Project meets The Ritual, with a generous helping of The Menu, in Morsel, a delicious folk horror novella perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher, Cassandra Khaw, and Paul Tremblay. Lou did what the children of parents with back breaking, poor paying jobs are supposed to do; pulled up her bootstraps, went to college, and got an office job with coworkers who won'trstop talking about their multi-level marketing scheme disguised as self-betterment Determined to lift her ill mother out of poverty before it's too late, and in the spirit of climbing the corporate ladder, Lou accepts an assignment in the rural hills of Ohio. She quickly finds herself stranded in the middle of nowhere with ra sabotaged truck, a dog she's determined to keep safe, and something stalking her through the ancient Appalachian woods. If she can't escape the woods in time, she's going to find out that her job isn't the only thing that wants to eat her alive. Morsel is a chilling testament to the burden of generational poverty and the all-consuming nature of capitalism, where® the monster and the monstrous, in the end, are not the same. Out April 2026!”

A photo of an open sketchbook, placed on a wooden desk and surrounded by branches, hag stones, palo santo, and leaves for decoration. The left side of the sketchbook spread shows two gouache paintings, the top (and larger) one featuring a misty conifer forest with mossy ground and bright white back lighting. The bottom one shows pale blue light filtering through a dark conifer forest. The right side also features two gouache paintings; the top one of a very misty, monochrome conifer forest, and the bottom one of a dark conifer forest with mossy ground and pale sunlight coming in from the left.

Still painting dark forests~

Half Finished Illustration of the Tower of Cirith Ungol in Mordor. In the foreground a black stony path is rim lit with a sickly green light. A miasma hovers in the chasm below. In the middle ground is a cliffside fortress accessible via stone bridge. so far only the top of the tower is lit with the same sickly green. Columns of smoke billow out of the tower. in the background over the Ethel Duath and plains of Gorgoroth, Orodruin churns out a sulphurous fume into the red sky. Gonna add some goblins and whatnot in the foreground eventually. On the right is the working palette. I am using the Sonny Ross Muppet Colour Theory for this one.
