Kati D.

Hey thank you!!! I'm really excited to flesh this one out.

A personal work in progress (no affiliation to anything, just playing with font illustration more). Excited to get back into some darker stuff. I very much want some metal album covers under my belt!😈 #art #drawing #sketch #wip #noai #noaiart #metal #nature #fantasyart #illustration

Just have to say, I am SO proud of my home state of New York tonight.

I don’t get to post client pieces too often lately. Here’s the progression of a TCG illustration I’ve just wrapped up this morning! ⛏️ #art #drawing #sketch #wip #illustration #fantasyart #dwarf

Hey all. Long time no see - I'll be posting more often again. Here's tonight's work - A long overdue personal art sesh. ⚔️☀️

Artist Interview: Kati Drinkwine An artist interview with the illustrious Kati Drinkwine.

We did an interview with Kati Drinkwine (@absinthe-arts.bsky.social) all about everything! She is super talented and as I found out, more of a hardcore gamer than I knew.

If you wondered about her work on our Kindred comic or beyond, its all here. Check out Kati and give her a follow.

"There’s some stuff about me that I’ve been ignoring for a long time. I’m afraid of that stuff. But it’s part of who I am. As long as I know the shape of my soul, I’ll be alright.”

Finally able to reveal my illustration for The Beer And Now + Foxes Den collab! This will be my first ever local label, and I am very lucky to do a piece for a meadery that is very special to my heart.

Hey I appreciate that! It's been an absolute honor to be involved. You seriously deserve all of the hype this is already gathering and I can't wait to see where this goes!

Now I can get behind that! 🏴‍☠️

Hahah yeah I have a bad habit of that. I'll have much more time to get some new work out finally - let's just hope the internet doesn't switch to that ID requirement model or I'm out for good 😅

A quick doodle done this evening, putting some thought into a potential label design. Stay tuned! 🍓🍌

I am an artist looking for work, sorry!

My latest years-long comic gig is coming to close in about a month, so I'm on the prowl for new work. I'll be following up with an updated portfolio asap. For the time being, if anyone out there has any leads on new/ongoing projects that need a 2D concept artist/general illustrator hmu!

Can’t remember the last time I’ve sat down and vibed through a personal piece. I’m going to be doing this way more. I’m tired of hiding because of AI. I exist and I want to be seen again.

Here are some OC commissions I've done over the past couple of years. I'll be working up a current pricing sheet soon but if you've got interest in similar work, hit me up!

Finally on the mend, but still feeling the drain from this awful flu. Feels nice to be able to get a little work in today. Here's a #TCG image I finished a couple weeks ago, I really enjoy the color palette especially!

Apologies for being pretty quiet here! I’ve been taking a break from social media, much needed. Once I get over this flu and handle our move later this month, I plan to start posting art far more frequently. I appreciate all of the new follows and I look forward to checking out your projects!

Really struggling with various online communities I used to dearly enjoy giving in to AI slop. I’ve lost several friends over it recently, even dropped one of my absolute favorite bands for doubling down on using AI as a shortcut.

I need to make a better effort to find communities here on bsky.

Haven't posted in a minute. Just got through the TCG sketch - it's always a breath of fresh air to work on fantasy art.

Thinking I'm going to step back into watercolor + inking in my free time, at least as client projects start to wrap up.

I'd love some recommendations for: A sketchbook that can hold through inking/watercolor and has decent tooth to it - brushes - watercolor brands!

Gorgeous!

Also, it's definietly not a positive to admit you're in a workforce minority, and willing to do outsourced cheap labor for a company that is openly dropping DEI practices. That business doesn't have to stand with you, they get to use you and move on. Have some integrity.

Man, it makes me really sad to see freelancers defending places like Fivver.

Getting outsourced by companies like Nike, notorious for paying pennies on the dollar and then paying a 20% fee to the platform on top isn’t the flex you think it is.

Sooo swamped with work, been working 10-12 hour days for the past week. Can't post anything, all NDA :( Apologies for the lack of art ya'll, believe me I'm excited to get in on some personal projects asap!

Haunting. Love it!
