Every day I'll post some drawings until I don't.
I don't have this drawing anymore and it's sad.
Man I miss doing album covers.
Someone commission me to an album cover.

I can’t believe these paintings are ten years old…

This is important to us because what’s happening right now in Congress could permanently change protections for a beloved wilderness area. With everything else going on, this quietly moved forward while most people weren’t paying attention and it should concern all of us.

I can finally share these, two packaging artworks made for Magic: The Gathering's Lorwyn Eclipsed Draft Night box! AD: Lauren Brown
They were painted in watercolour and acryla gouache on Arches paper, with some little digital changes alterations made to give the packaging the polish it needs.

Ghost

Sumi and liquid acrylics.

I’m not sure how to put into words the intentions of this painting, it’s just full of thoughts and emotions I felt at the time. It’s a silent painting, as silent as an owl flying through the night sky
この絵には、なに言えば正直わからない。
感情いっぱい入れているやけど、結構静か
夜の中に、梟が飛んでいるような静か

Scientific observation 🤔
A square chart with corners labeled HUMAN, FURRY, MONSTER, and "FERAL"/ANIMAL. it has various sliding-scale examples of the various ways sexy character appeals can present among the overlap between monsterfuckers and furries. The human corner has a guy labeled "That's Todd", the Animal corner has a dog labeled "That's a dog", the furry corner has an anthro wolf labeled "a dog with a 6-pack", and monster has a pile of eyes and wiggles labeled "eldritch"

It's sitting on a throne made of stone with vines and plants creeping over it and a petrified human head at the top. The basilisk's eyes glow orange and its gaze is malicious An illustration of mother Goethel, the witch from Rapunzel. She stands in the center, surrounded by thorny bushes and between two crooked trees, holding a baby wrapped in luminous white cloth and her eyes glowing a malicious golden color. In the foreground we see rampions growing from golden vines which intertwine like braids; in the background, in the distance and in the middle of a forest, we see a lone tower a mock cover of the Prophet's Paradise, a collection of poems by Robert W. Chambers using the illustration Sleeper. "Sleeper" is an Illustration of a chimera-like being; her head and torso are that of a human with long flowing hair whilst the rest of her body is that of a grouse or pheasant, covered in fur and wings wide open; the tail is snake-like. She stands in darkness, a faint golden halo around her head and torso toe-thrasher, a rat lord wearing a royal mantle made of white fur, thrashing in the middle of a swamp in its hind legs and holding a black flail. in the swamp, there are numerous yellow eyes

明けましておめでとう
I’m late to posting this and for some parts of the world, it hasn’t been a great start.
Last year, I finally finished my tarot, and since then, I have been a bit lost when it comes to my goals in the art world.
