I had the chance to sit down with the incredible Natalie Kreider, Harless Snyder, and Aliana Rood to chat all things Fable Frames for #MTGLorwyn

Hope y’all enjoy the peek behind the curtain!

Also please forgive me for the pun toward the end 😅

Anxiety is deleting a post from three days ago with a spelling mistake and then immediately regretting it thinking someone will notice and think I’m silly for deleting/making the mistake in the first place… what a wild ride 😅😵‍💫

My Toph art was finally shown off for the Secret Lair: Avatar: The Last Airbender super drop!

I was happy to illustrate the greatest earthbender in the world for this drop and as a bonus, it’s in the frame I helped design and illustrate for #MTGxATLA!!

Dropping today in the Encyclopedia of Magic Secret Lair drop, you can find my Field of the Dead card!

While it’s an honor to work on Magic every day, joining the halls of the other Magic artists I look up to is a life goal achievement.

I’ve been waiting for this one for a minute.

Not only was I able to contribute to #MTGxATLA with the Elemental Frame design for the set’s showcase treatment, but I was also able to create art for said treatment as well!

Want to bling out your #MTGxATLA decks? Check out the Borderless Battle Pose, Borderless Elemental Frame, and Borderless Double-Faced Saga cards.

Two new cards from the upcoming #MTGxATLA set. The one on the left, Fire Lord Azula, is the Borderless Battle Pose version of the card. It depicts a woman, halfway crouched, and punching downward, flames emitting from her hands. The right card, Fire Lord Zuko, shows no card text but is the Neon Ink Borderless Battle Pose version. Both cards have a black, red, and orange color palette.

Two new Borderless Elemental Frame version cards from the upcoming #MTGxATLA set. The one on the left, Sokka, Tenacious Tactician, shows a stern-faced Sokka pouring over a map of the four nations. The border around the card text shows elemental-looking yellow swirls. The card on the left, Iroh, Grand Lotus, has the same styling. Iroh appears graceful while he firebends.

With #MTGLorwyn debuting at #MCAtlanta, I’m excited to share a few cards for the Fabled Frame Treatment I had the pleasure of conceptualizing and illustrating frames for!

I love how this frame design pairs with the incredible artwork in the set and I can’t wait for everyone to see more of it!

My small contribution for this new MTG sci-fi era. I'm feeling some of the vibes I had when Mirrodin came out.
But please, if we play together, don't mix fantasy cards with sci-fi ones...thank you.

And lastly the return of the Galaxy Foil used for #MTGEternities lands, from basics to the bonus sheet!

Mana Confluence. Digital renders, foil effect not shown. Plains Card Type: Basic Land — Plains Tap to add {W}.

Station Mechanic (implied by the "12+" icon) Once stationed, you may: Tap: Add {U} for each artifact you control. Piotr Dura's illustration shows a massive, domed structure with glowing towers and hovering architecture, observed by a silhouetted creature. Sci-fi opulence mixed with fantasy. Gemstone Caverns Card Type: Legendary Land If you're not the starting player, and this is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield with a luck counter (if you exile a card from your hand).

Haliya, Guided by Light, illustrated by Eleonor Piteira for the Magic: The Gathering set 'Edge of Eternities'. A young black woman dressed in light armour with an orange cape and holding a sci-fi-looking axe, stands triumphantly on top of a pile of dead enemies in dark bulky armours. Behind her there's a flat orange planet against a light purple background with stars, while the silhouette of a ship flies by.

In a white and black frame with stylized wild roses and grapes, three skeletons in the three graces pose are holding three glasses, in which blood is being poured by a bleeding heart. On top, Mars is laying down, covered by a purple cloth, with stylized red roses around and a halo made of roses and ivy in a medieval manuscript style. Behind everything, a red wave of blood and a stylized sun.
