I drew this in 2021 and found it again recently. Thinking of taking a couple of these guys and doing a full painting of them 🤔 what kind of shenanigans you think they’d get up to? #illustration #painting #smallartist

elon musk is the saddest lil loser in the world. nobody loves him, his little cock doesnt work, his finances are tied up to massive debt, his vanity projects constantly fail, he can't form a fucking sentence and his face is starting to slough off like melting cherry garcia ice cream

are any artists actively putting "Anti AI" statements up on their site? I'm thinking of doing it, but then I've heard that you're a lot less likely to get booked freelance because they are actually *seeking* that """skill"""

Painting in various panels showing a moon, some skulls, a glass and a fig tree

A highly experimental painting I did last year where I took various sketches from my sketchbook and knit them together into a single canvas. In the end, like usual for me, it ended up being more of a sum of its separate parts. It’s 24x24 inches and all in acrylic #painting #art #contemporaryart

This is lil Smokey. One cat of four. He’s terribly fluffy, extremely affectionate and has a comedically high voice #cats

Trying to get my #art uploaded everywhere! This one’s called The Bravest Chipmunk and it’s about a little chipmunk that lives in the zoo and makes dangerous journeys into the predator cages for magical items! It’s painted in #gouache #fantasyart #illustration

Thumbnail illustration of a boombox and cassette tape with hand drawn text overlaid that says: Small Joys with Mothman. The overlay text sits nestled between two cute illustrations of Mothman--a grayish black bat like creature with bright red eyes.

Small Joys with Mothman is an ongoing series that’s meant to serve as a reminder that peace is usually found in the smallest and simplest of ways.

New Substack + YT video up. Links below.

This little digital painting was done deep in 2021 lockdown in our little 1 bedroom Baltimore apartment. Felt like the damn walls were closing in and I kept fantasizing about a magic staff that would let me open a magic door to literally anywhere else. #digitalpainting #illustration

totally! it's so frustrating! for me, at least, with men there's always a dice roll whether or not they have some insane fringe view that they only bring up after you hang out 2 or 3 times... I got tired of having to ghost dudes for being weirdos or creeps

I haven’t uploaded much here so let’s change that! I painted this little bear in their wood shop just making a piece of furniture- something I enjoy doing a lot too! Ironically I painted this before we got a foot of snow here in WV! #wvart #appalachianart #appalachia
