Artwork of a siskin bird in flight. Graphite & coloured pencil plus acrylic on moleskine sketchbook. Finished with a few digital brush strokes. The bird is mainly yellow tones and grey/black with a very pale background.

My friend Anna is trying to raise funds to end the dental pain she has suffered for years. She's just about given up hope. Socar has had this procedure so knows how much pain Anna is in, and how much this helped. www.gofundme.com/f/please-hel...

Kevin literally never misses. Anything he's selling, the Botanica Tarot, those gorgeous pins, would make a great gift this season, IJS

I loveee theseeee

I haven't! I'd love to. This pattern here has gone through so many iterations this whole year, the journey of learning about pattern design and what feels "right" in a pattern is still so new to me. I'm afraid of committing myself and falling short of expectations. But this is encouraging to hear!!

Thank you! 🥰

I can finally show one of my favourite paintings from last year! This was a commission for @illumicrate.bsky.social which was printed on a blanket included in a recent Afterlight box.

Auroras are my favourite natural phenomena and i'd love to see them some day, so i'm very glad I got to paint one!

I want to thank @joel-rocketco.bsky.social who very generously allowed me to draw from one of his beautiful hummingbird photos. 🩷

"Insomnia"

I drew plants I pass on my evening walks home from work, in my little neighborhood. I wanted something quiet and dark for this, because sometimes we're just quiet, and dark.

Hey all, do I have any UK based concept artists following me (or who knows anyone) who would be up for a long term 22 month contract working on Dragonwilds at Jagex? Remote with a very occasional day in office in Cambridge. Development experience and fantasy genre work is a must. Mid level role.

I definitely need to figure out what is going on with my bluetooth not recognizing the little guy's existence, I like having a backup plan! And yeah it's so convenient for traveling when it does work.

I have the handheld! I must have bought it in a surge of confidence like a year ago. It came in clutch the last show I did, my bluetooth wasn't working on my phone for the normal little square thingy. Anyway I love it!

I can't emphasize enough how obsesses I am with this drawing series.

Have you been eyeing the Chromatic Fates #Tarot deck? Please check out this sick 25% off sale I'm running for Black Friday right now.

I'm also adding my Bright Queen dot-grid sketchbooks to the sale.

Every sale supports me and my ancient cat's pretentious diet!

I was a comp sci major in college minoring in art, spending my time drawing and not doing programming labs.

I had a professor sit me down during a review and basically tell me that the only thing I was proving was that I liked art but not enough to major in it (my other grades were mediocre).

A large room is flooded with golden light and reflection, as a large dragon just breathed fire.

The spam continues, I hope it's not too anoying, turns out I had a lot to add as available prints ;)

Would you maybe be interested in some more dragon?

A woman with pale skin, white hair in two braids, and delicate gold tattoo on her face floats in the night sky with a full moon and starry sky behind her. She is wearing a thigh length purple dress with long sweeping sleeves. There are glowing blue lines etched on the fabric of the dress, and two ribbons of light with geometric patterns are trailing behind her. A ring of magic with glowing orbs is circling around her as she floats.

Commission work done for YeetMaur A dark skinned man with dark brown hair and a beard framing his jaw, dressed in a white robe and dark brown pants crouches with one hand on the ground as he swings at demons with his katana. The enemy demons are dressed in red rusting armor that looks worn and damaged. The scene is set in a bamboo forest with a path cutting through it, red banners on either side of the road. It appears to be in the afternoon, with a rich orange glow streaming in between the bamboo.

A man sits in his study, contemplating a dark, box shaped artifact, while a dark spirit looms behind him. This was a commission work done for JacenLandry

It's my birthday today! ☺️
If you could spare a repost, it would be much appreciated!

Sloppers fuck off. If you can’t do it yourself maybe learn to be happy as the audience

Have you tried the new Procreate brushes? I was trying to get a creamy, painterly look, but it all blended together into a muddy mess 😅 I still love the painterly style, so I figured out some tricks to make it work!

I made a video about it ~ find it here: www.patreon.com/posts/tutori...

These colors are to die for 😍
