Not @brandonsanderson.com making me say hell yeah while painting this morning. Brilliance. Art has saved my life..no…MAKING ART has saved my life. Creativity is our birth right.

A vaporous spirit floats up out of a deck of playing cards that’s also a source of water. The spirit has its hands out in supplication/invitational display. It wears a steel helmet with deer antlers coming out the sides.

Weird time to share art, but I’m finally allowed to share the cover of my next book, THE SHIP OF DEATH, from @harpercollins.bsky.social & Avon A. (9/29/26) Expect some other posts w/ choice blurbs and preorder links! Illustration: Peter Strain/Design: Julianna Lee. Editor @peterkispert.bsky.social
