I’ve been so inspired to draw more that I finally got around to touching up my first sketch of my character Barbaria (copyright pending) versus the Winged Freaks! I’m dying to ink this. Graphite on Bristol Board. #noaiart #supporthumanartists #fantasy #barbarian #comicart

Hand and arm studies. Like most artists, I struggle with hands and fingers, but with a little help from #burnehogarth I feel like I’m improving. Graphite on tracing paper. #noaiart #anatomy #hands #fingers #traditionalart

Introducing Serrator and Serpentine. Also size comparisons with Barbaria and Pyrandra. Had an awesome time at #lightbox today. Met some incredible human artists and it’s nice to know that we’re all out here just trying to tell our stories. #noaiart #supporthumanartists #characterdesign #fantasy

Wasn’t lucky enough to win the portfolio lottery at #lightbox this year, but I’ve been hard at work on it. Here are some excerpts for my characters. Published my website as well. Hoping to meet and connect with new people to start collaborating and creating! #noaiart #characterdesign #fantasy #krita

Studying my comic hero John Buscema’s work has really helped my anatomy, gesture, and overall design. Sam Wilson is my favorite Captain America, but Steve Rogers is a classic. Colored pencils but I would love to ink this piece. #noaiart #fanart #marvelcomics #captainamerica #traditionalart

Really inspired by @dawnmcteigue ‘s recent #wonderwoman piece. She captures the human figure with near perfection and helps with my gesture woes. #noaiart #dccomics #fanart #coloredpencil #justiceleague #pinup #traditionalart

Reflections of the Bat… Bruce is still that traumatized young lad despite all of his training, gadgets, and cowl. Originally penciled in Graphite and inked and colored in Krita. I need a lot more mentorship with color 😅… #noaiart #batman #fanart #dccomics #shadowofthebat #mensmentalhealthawareness

Hot Court Summer… Sensational She-Hulk: Immigration Attorney at Law. Art is political; deal with it. If you’re gonna draw pinups, make sure it sends a meaningful message. Penciled in colored pencils, then inked and colored in Krita. #noaiart #shehulk #fanart #comicart #marvelcomics #krita

More fan art! @tabi.lift is a fitfluencer and cosplay goddess, and is the closest real-life human Chun-Li we’ll ever experience. I learned a lot from my last inking attempt and I think this is a huge improvement. Ink and Copic Markers on Bristol paper. #noaiart #ink #traditionalart #fanart #tabilift

#captainamerica Number 1 (2025). I took artistic liberties with adjusting the original 1941 cover to reflect current events. America: you need to go sit in your corner and think about what you did. Ink on Bristol paper. #captainamerica #noaiart #traditionalart #ink #comics #marvel #fanart

Sometimes you have to put your not-best work out there to show what you’re learning and what you’re trying to improve on: rendering and HAIR 😅. Another ode to Pam: ink with Copic markers. #noaiart #fanart #figuredrawing #traditionalart #ink
