Art vs Artist 👁️👄👁️

Denton is such a nice slice of queer/alt heaven in North Texas. I always love being there.

Vending the Denton Comic Art Expo until 5pm today at the Denton Civic Center!

Oh nice I didn't know that!! There's a lot of cool stuff popping up there these days

I'm taking a temporary break from playing Silent Hill f to vend at Denton Comic Art Expo this SATURDAY! This is a free event and one of my favorites of the year. I'll have my original art as canvases and prints, also stickers, keychains, and patches!

Here's a time lapse of my Year of the Ox sticker design!

5 days of study, 30 minutes a day this week

Saving each day as separate layer group to keep track and get back into my groove

Real artists always make better things than LLM/AI slop programs ever could. We artists add color and life to a burning world that is full of greed, hate, and despair. Nothing a “genAI” program generates has any soul or life to it. It is no supplement for art made with love and heartfelt effort.

Image of a book cover for "the king in yellow" it features a wizard looking creature in a demonic white mask and yellow cloak. He is floating over a dark lake with two similar looking women below him. They are looking up to him in awe

"I cannot forget Carcosa where black stars hang in the heavens; where the shadows of men's thoughts lengthen in the afternoon, when the twin suns sink into the lake of Hali; and my mind will bear for ever the memory of the Pallid Mask." Robert W Chambers, The King in Yellow.

Our little Hazbin Hotel fan musical cast wrap up at TFS! I played Vaggie and it was such a a pleasure to flex my inner theater kid! Ludo was also a gem to chat with at the cast party.

I was the one who played, Vaggie!! It was a pleasure meeting you, Ludo!

I am interested in doing book cover work so this was my first foray into designing an illustration around a book cover.
