Hi, I’m Emma, an illustrator, comic artist, and sculptor with a propensity for drawing dinosaurs, monsters, aliens, and spaceships, but especially dinosaurs.

I'm working on a sci-fi story with all of the above. Except dinosaurs, oddly no dinosaurs.
I’ve been poking at this model kit for a while and it’s been more work than expected.

It’s a horribly produced kit. Edges don’t line up, panel lines are raised for some odd reason, and the guns are nothing like the original cg models.

Patching, sanding, resculpting.

The decals are also crappy.

I was blessed by a Christmas miracle!

4 parrots at once, from left to right; Cricket, Pickle, Emmett, and Lancelot.

The only one missing was Juno, off doing her own thing.

It’s rare they stop doing crime long enough to chill together.

The elusive creature slumped on the couch is yours truly.

I’m so excited for this! I love Riley’s writing and it’s always inspiring.

Logging in to my X account and seeing I still have over 2,500 followers when I haven't posted anything there in over a year and moved elsewhere...

@blackshirtboy.bsky.social is always worth a repost!

If you’re going to refer to me as a terrorist and an enemy of the state simply because I’m trans, then I feel I’ll need to step up my game.
I finally finished this piece.

My homage to the late, great David Lynch.

"Fix Your Hearts or Die"

Prints and stickers are available in my store. Also 8x8 prints without the words.

I have episode ideas and skits written down, along with a celebrity wish list, for a revival of "The Muppet Show" that I've been poking at.

The more I poke at it for fun, the more annoyed I get with the current state of The Muppets.

That's right, this may come as a shock to you but I do have non dinosaur art and it can be yours.

I once had to write a 6 word autobiography and it goes like this:

"Intended paleontology, ended up in art."

All of my spelling and grammar mistakes in my posts come from me always hitting the character limit and then chopping up my sentences to fit. Then not noticing I butchered something until after I hit post.

My alt texts are usually far more eloquent because I have more space and feel less stressed.

The notorious abandoned octopus comic that named "The Emirgible".

It was about an octopus that fabricates a suit out of things it finds from ship wrecks and explores dry land.

I abandoned it because while I was working on it "The Aquanaut" by Dan Santat came out and I lost all momentum.

I was going through files on my computer and found my first digital art piece from way back in 2003.

Again, I was never taught how to make art digitally and I absolutely hated it until 2019 when I was gifted a Wacom by my wife.

Even back then I was making art with dumb jokes.

Bird are dinosaurs!

A silly doodle I did while babysitting my printer while I get ready for the next convention.

Those who see me at conventions know that I'm always willing to talk about how I do my art, from process to research and more!

So if you've ever wanted to ask me a question, go for it.

Even if it's only tangentially art related, or you're curious about me as a person, I'm keen to overshare. 😬
Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.

I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

I’ve seen so many movies more than 6 times.

Is it not a normal thing to watch movies over and over again?

I don’t do it as much as I’d like to these days, but if I posted gifs for every movie I’ve seen more than 6 times it would take me the better part of a day.

The rare booth sketch.

If you ask nicely, and I have time, I can sometimes be convinced.

It was also itty bitty.
