Wren

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

A large board cut out of a scrawled and scribbled ghost. There are 2 kids running from the board cut out with scared looks on their faces. A third child laughing from behind the board cutout of the ghost, implying that they tricked the other 2.

Hello there! Latinx horror artist here! I’d love to be considered if you haven’t already picked someone!

Here’s my portfolio: www.wrenrios.com

An illustrated cover for a short comic called The Hearth by lainey williams. A cabin sits in a clearing in a snowy forest. The small windows in the log cabin are lit yellow and there is a trail of blood through the snow leading to the door. Smoke rises from the cabin’s chimney to surround the title. On either side of the smoke are illustrations in the style of Karelian embroidery, showing stylized geometric patterns in red thread. On the left side embroidery section, there is a depiction of a woman kneeling. her hands are stained red and she wears a headscarf. Opposite her is a woman standing. Instead of a left arm she has a wing. Over the top of the image, two geese shaded in red fly over the cabin and smoke. The trees all around the cabin are shaded in dark blue.

The Hearth (1/21)

A sapphic horror comic about witchcraft and hunger in the dead of winter.

In a dimly lit room: a girl is startled standing near a crystal ball and candles on a table. The crystal ball appears to be breaking and lighting up it's surroundings. A plume of a smoke like form is emerging from the crystal ball. You can make out distorted and pained faces in the smoke.

Week 2: The Crystal Ball Reveals... 🔮🔮🔮

A Bluey fan art illustration by Wren Rios, it shows the interior of the Heeler household. There’s a shoebox and a jar in the foreground, bugs crawling in and out of each. Some bugs on the floor as well. There’s a butterfly in the air above and to the left of Bluey who’s stood confidently in the center, she’s wearing a striped tie and a pen in her ear, holding a clipboard in one hand that features a rudimentary drawn house with a bug in it. She’s stood beside a large briefcase and behind the briefcase is Bingo who’s cautiously hiding with a worried face.
