⭐ Pinned post! ⭐
I'm Ell! A Scottish comic artist and illustrator (award nominated!) who originally emerged from the north sea.
✍️ I am available for work ✍️

A full colour illustration of a magpie in flight, its iridescent green and blue feathers shaded with pencil lines. It is carrying a stem of variegated ivy that curls underneath it as it flies. A monochrome comic page featuring a character being grabbed by several pairs of hands, holding him down and putting fingers in his mouth. One pair of hands holds up a pair of pliers. A painted waist-up sketch of jean vicquemare from Disco Elysium, a white man with dark hair, spiky facial hair and small round scars on his cheek and neck. He is standing in the rain with his head tilted to the sky, a look of relief and gratitude on his face. His shirt is clinging to his skin and has orange highlights on it. The rest of the colour scheme uses mostly deep blues and purples. A photograph of five different greeting cards spread out on a furry blanket. Each card has a different medieval style lino print design on them, in a different colour. On the prints are a green gargoyle, a red phoenix, a blue pegasus, a pink dragon and a golden unicorn.

I haven't done a huge amount of drawing this year, as I've been focusing on printmaking and crafts for events, but I don't mind the stuff I HAVE drawn (:

Screenshot I forgot I took of a joke in Disco Elysium that made me lose my mind
A screenshot from the video game Disco Elysium. The main character is taking to a young girl who is using a recording device on the ice. She says "a contact mic records sounds from inside things. Like this ice." The Encyclopedia (which is a part of the main character's brain that speaks to him in his head) says "your mangled brain works like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike" the main character (who has amnesia) replies "Yeah? Any news on my wife's name? How about my mother?" The Encyclopedia simply replies "Nope."

“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here

Yolo often stands with his little back toes crossed, which I find ridiculously cute!
You can see vultures don't have bulky feet and talons built for grasping/carrying like other raptors. Their more chicken-like feet are meant for bracing on food to pull at it with their powerful beaks, instead.

So um. We stopped at Tebay services on Monday. They can’t know what this means, right?

Masking helps stop disabled people like me dying, being excluded from society, and avoids passing on this kind of preventable illness. But if that’s not worth the tradeoff for you, consider protecting yourself. Just think about if you really need your face uncovered while sat silently on a train

My severe health problems (which mean I’m currently, as usual, in pain and bedbound) come from common viral illnesses I never recovered from. I was fine before that. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but my worst enemies. Nothing's magically protecting you from becoming disabled. It can happen to anyone.

Things are indescribably rough for small business rn, and I'm so sad to see Quindrie go, but I'm SO proud of @evegwood.com for making it happen in the first place. You made such a huge difference in the scene for creators & worked SO hard. 💕 There are incredible books that now exist because of you.
