Mild mannered artist by day, mild mannered gym rat by night. It's always such a joy to meet new people, be it online or in the flesh, aether or other!
Life does indeed imitate art, though for me Hunter Thompson may be kind of an extreme example.

We needed a Bride of Frankenstein- Tank Girl mashup.

Inspired byBill Moseley's super cool prosthetic makeup in Silent Night Deadly Night 3, where he plays a comatose serial killer with a transparent dome where his skull should be. I added some Constructivism colors, just because I thought it looked cool.

For my dear wife, nicknamed Kitty for reasons lost to time.
I call her Tiger Lily too, as they are my favorite flowers.

Leninstein, because Soviet-era Frankenstein's monster needs to be a thing.

I'm not at all knowledgeable about Pokémon, mostly due to the fact that I'm hopeless where video games are concerned! They are fun to draw though!

A while back I drew an amabie based only off of a description of what they're supposed to look like. They're sort of like mermaids with three tails, and sometimes a bird-like face. They appear in Japanese folklore, usually with an important message to deliver.

Another #unicorn done this time in blues. Maybe it's an Arctic unicorn?

"I don't know if this hairdo is really me..."
Inspired in part by Death of the Endless from the Sandman comics. I always liked her. #comicbookart #sketchbook #artsky #illustration #art #drawing #sketch

My dear wife loves unicorns, so I gave it a shot! I'm going to have to mess with colors a little more. I think I really like the blue and black though!

Vespula Maculifrons, the eastern yellowjacket. We see a lot of these around the northeast US. They are either motivated solely by malice and hate or just want some space around their living areas.

Some #occult doodling tonight. Baphomet represents a union of opposites. And besides, goats are fun to draw.

Also from Japanese folklore comes the story of Cow Head- a story so terrifying that no one who hears it survives! It's such an evocative name- what unimaginable horrors would something called Cow Head bring?

From #Inktober past, the prompt here was "Corruption". I thought of EC Comics, and the corrupting influence of horror comics. (Or so they said.)

Sukima-Onna, the Gap Woman, seemed appropriate for #Halloween this year. From Japanese folklore, this woman peers through cracks and gaps in your home. One of the odder but somehow scarier stories from #Japan I've heard!

From #Inktober past! Here we have Meg Mucklebones, from 1985's Legend. Is it weird that I was kind of on the villains' side?

What are your influences? For me, it was growing up watching old B movies- The Crawling Eye, Man From Planet X, and most certainly Robot Monster among many others. Here are a couple old #sketches from a few years ago.

An old #drawing based on Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring- I always wanted to see her smile, stick out her tongue, make a face, something like that!

It's been over 20 years, 3 continents, 5 countries, 3 US states and millions of shuffles, and time to retire my old Rider-Waite Smith Tarot deck. This was the deck that I learned Tarot on, and perhaps for that reason keep coming back to.

Tarot Aces- I went for visually interesting rather than accuracy

We all started somewhere, as far as art is concerned.
This was a simple piece, really not much more than me thinking it looked cool. Ink and acrylics on canvas

Disco Slenderman isn't real, he can't hurt you.
Also, Disco Godfather is a fxxin' awesome movie and I will indeed die on that hill.
