Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

"Time to deal with the widows and orphans"

Or

"Needs more bleed"

Forever in awe of the lighting skills of @bifanoland.bsky.social

Love ginkgo leaves. Good idea

I couldn't be happier

Look at this beautiful pocket knife. @forgedelalune.bsky.social is a master crafter! I can't wait to hold it 💙

Eee! So exciting!

Thanks! I'm not used to working in large format so it's always a fun challenge

I don't think I'll do a snake again, but I am a fan of the black ink with gold. I have one myth in mind, just need to sketch it out.

photo of a wooden skateboard on a stone background. Illustration is done in black marker and depicts the upper body of a curled heron head and beck, with part of a wing. A golden snake curls around the heron. A golden crescent moon hangs above.

Photo of a wooden skateboard on a deep red background. Image is drawn in black marker, depicting a hound, crouched, head back over the shoulder. A golden snake entwines and dog. Gold also highlights a disk behind the dog's head, some of the collar, and a golden dagger to the left.

It's charity auction skateboard season again — picking up my board this weekend.

Photo of three square stacked game boxes. The boxes are off-white with an colourful illustration of three fishing animals on the cover, a bear, otter and raccoon. Title reads Friendly Fishing.

If anyone likes to look at portfolio things, I just updated my site to include the 'Friendly Fishing' board game

Some sketches and creative process stuff included.

Tension headache is the best guess right now, so magnesium, mindful posture, stretching and screen breaks seem to be working. Fingers crossed.

Ugh I'm so sorry you deal chronically :(

Ok I don't want to jinx it but… this might be my first headache free day since Nov 15th.

Wahahaha I love this so much

That's satire… right??

An illustration of a loon biting a white snake in half with an 8 pointed star above its head. The illustration is very high contrast in red, black and white.

Some cute trailcam captures from this week, including some wrasslin' coyotes

This is smart.

When I first got my iPad I went "aw yeah now I can draw from the comfort of my couch" and immediately messed up the muscles of my back from my terrible posture.

I say this as I sit cross legged on a chair hunched over like a shrimp. Do as I say, not as I do.

Sit properly and you'll save yourself so much money in massages and physical therapy.

Right. I've been eating some of the costs for years. But by all means, we can try sending it by owl.

The way this made me laugh out loud
