The back patch is 16 inches tall, enough to really fill the back panel of a denim jacket or vest, say.

Black and white drawing of a worn out new england farmhouse nestled inside overgrown trees and grass, being hit by lightning. Behind it a mountain looms and the lightning reveals a skull-like shape.

This is one of my favourite horror pieces I've ever drawn, and I've got prints and canvas back patches of it available at the Danforth Arts Market this spring!

Amberspire, our dice driven science fantasy city builder, will release MAY 6!

Roll dice, grow a city, forge alliances, interact with an ecology, and read a history of the future.

A long haired girl, sitting at a cluttered art table in a cabin, is dreamily thinking of another girl. They're both camp councilors, and the other girl is the swim instructor.

Getting a summer job as a camp councillor is a great way to make money, expand your horizons and meet all sorts of exciting, new people...

Instead of a newsletter I'm going to do a blog post on my website every Monday. I posted one yesterday about some postcards I was commissioned to do. www.katedaviesillustration.ca/blog

Delighted to share my new cover for Ben's upcoming book :-) tales of connection in a lonely universe. Check it out and support independent comics!

i think we're putting together something magical, transporting, surprising and beautiful for you all, and I'm getting really really excited about seeing it all come together this spring.

For years, Graceware has gotten away with abusing the DMCA because they've targeted large platforms that comply quickly with takedowns, or individuals without the resources to push back.

Then they fucked with us, a non-profit organization with a special interest and an expert legal team. Whoops!

Tomorrow! I have an essay in it. Well, it's sort of an essay. It's technically an essay. It's an essay I wrote like a poem because I get to be like that if I want to be like that because writing for games is fun and writing about games is also fun! bsky.app/profile/inkl...

QRP with your skull art.

I've drawn many a skull in my time but here's a coupe I like

A new small joy I'm indulging in once in a while; walking down to my local 2nd hand bookstore and picking up a book of poetry by an author I don't know.

So many of these books are funded by the Canadian Council for the Arts.

I really hope we continue funding passion.

She’s coming together 🐰🐶🐨🐭

The cover of the zine! In the centre is a screenshot from The Shape of Water of a woman with her hands against a tank containing a humanoid fish man. They look at each other longingly through the glass. The Title of the zine is: So you've seen The Shape of Water...A beginner's guide to monster kissing movies

screenshot from Tsui Hark's Green Snake. Two women in are sitting very close to each other in the grass, surrounded by huge flowers. One, in a pink dress, looks down, deep in thought. The other, in a teal dress, looks at her sister in concern

A screenshot from Agnieszka Smoczynska's The Lure. Three mermaids are snuggled together on a dingy grey bed beneath a disco ball (it's a weird movie). The one in the middle wears a dramatic red wig, and holds the other, younger mermaids protectively. The younger ones are suckling from the older one's breasts.

Screenshot from Jean Cocteau's Beauty and the Beast. Belle, a beautiful young woman, looks in a mirror, listening intently as the cat-like beast, in flamboyant dress and cape, holds up a key and gives her instructions on how to return to her family.

In a fit of procrastination, I did a new copy edit on this zine from last year; I forgot to share it for Valentine's Day, but if you're still looking for love, you can download my Beginner's Guide to Monster Kissing movies for PWYC on Gumroad! allisonotoole.gumroad.com/l/monster-ki...

It's this looser approach, a really nice contrast to my much tighter inking.

I unlocked something with digital painting in 2025 that really satisfies me like never before. I'd like to do some more of these in 2026. If you need some cover art hit me up.

And thanks to everybody's who's been supporting me and dad through this — we quite literally couldn't have done it without you all.

It's been rough getting back into the groove doing illustration while dad's situation remains unresolved, so I have to rattle my tin cup again to make sure my rent is and other expenses are covered. Every bit helps: ko-fi.com/O4O8CAE3

I can't begin to tell you how cool these are in person, but DAMN they truly are, and you should take advantage!

hey bsky folks, we're planning a trip to London and South Wales this spring, and I'd love to hear folks' recommendations for great food, museums, hikes, and more! I've never been to the UK before and I'm so excited!

i don't want to post another 'hey help me top up at the end of the month' kofi link because honestly how long can this go on? but getting back into work — my work, i.e. just drawing things — instead of packing things up or cleaning or prepping for hearings is so fucking hard right now
