The gal’s got Orbs on the brain! You can get some for your brain too. galusaurus.etsy.com
A grinning artist is modeling their handmade hair accessories—flat Orbs with leaves. Two of the leafy Orb clips are held up over the artist’s eyes, creating the illusion of a wild expression.

Illustration inspired by a textbook visual of human kidneys, but it's a pair of echidnas. The animals are all red with little spikes on their bodies, with blue noses and feet that connect to the blue vein running between them. Above, text simply reads a play on words "ECHIDNEYS."

Illustration of a rhinoceros beetle as if pinned for display, but it has botanical anatomical features. The six legs are thorny rose buds, the wings are rose leaves, and the abdomen is a rose in full bloom. Text above it reads "RHINOCEROSE BEETLE."

Just a little bit of wordplay for a treat. 🙂
Illustration of a spider but it's been combined with a berry pie. The abdomen of the spider looks like a triangular slice of pie crust, from which drips eight gooey spider legs and a head of eight shiny berry eyes. The creature is set against a classic red and white gingham picnic blanket, and above it reads simply "PIEDER"

When I'm not creating cursed creatures, I enjoy welcoming some whimsical new friends into the world, such as this bumbulldog and koivalier spaniel fish. 🤗
Illustration of two whimsical creatures set against a color gradient suggesting sky above and water below. Above, there is a large bumblebee but with anatomy of a white and brindle bulldog. It has big bug eyes and ears pointed out like antennae, three pairs of pudgy paws, and a little pair of bee wings. Below, there is a white and orange cavalier spaniel but shaped like a goldfish, with a sweet little pup face, ears, and forelegs, while its fur shapes the dorsal and tail fins.

FROM NOW UNTIL NOVEMBER 12, the public can purchase Mortasheen for the first time ever. Purchase options at the link. I have worked on this setting for over 20 years, the game system has been in develoment for over 15 and it took me over 5 to just make this first book.

Hello, I would like to share with you these two not-so-normal nautili that I drew. 😁
Illustration of two creatures based on the anatomy of a nautilus. However... one is made of tiger parts, with an orange and black striped shell, large cat eye in the center, with the top of the shell mutating into the nose and muzzle of a tiger. Instead of tentacles, a mass of tongues emerge out of the shell. Pictured below it is another nautiloid, but with horse anatomy. The brown shell has a short mane along the back, large horse eye in center, with the shell opening wide with horse teeth as many horse legs gallop out instead of tentacles.

Here's a peek at a couple of the monsters I got to draw for this book as one of the guest artists!
Pen and watercolor illustration of a humanoid fungal character. Their form is green and covered on bulbous shapes and fungal growths. The face only has a mouth full of flat teeth seen below a very large mushroom cap that also draped across the figure's staff. Watercolor and pen illustration of a bipedal tombstone. The body is a stone gravestone with two off-center eyes, indecipherable engravings, and eroded bird forms emerging from it. It is supported by a pair of human skeleton legs that are encased in dirt and roots.

Happy birthday to me! Is this what 38 is like? Pretty sweet.

Photo of the artist who has long bright green hair, and holds a colorfully painted fake human skull in front of their face, wearing home made head boppers with Orbs on top. They are seated in front of a wall covered in a colorful collection of art.

#Mashaween25 day 31 - your favorite Halloween movie.

Of course I must go for an Over the Garden Wall reference. 🖤

Happy Halloween! You have beautiful eyes! 🔘👄🔘
Digital Illustration of a crazed cartoon crow referencing the piece of media "Over the Garden Wall." The crow is sitting atop an open barrel where an alarmed frog is peering up from inside. The crow has its wings outstretched, beak overextended showing sharp teeth, its eyes bulging out in technicolor. Pieces of wrapped candy scatter in the air.

#Mashaween25 Day 30 - zombie

When in doubt, give it inappropriate teeth! 😁
Digital Illustration of a portrait of a crow, but it has glassy undead eyes, and its beak has sprouted wings and is seen flying away. The beak trails green goo to the face of the crow, where a flat face with grotesque teeth is seen where a beak used to be.

#Mashaween25 day 29 - clown 🤡

Now is not the time for me to get into detailed character concepts, so got a little fast and loose on this one. I love them.
Digital illustration of a jester-type character that is an anthropomorphic crow. The purple crow is wearing a long vest with alternating pink and blue panels, pink and blue striped cuffs and spats, a hat with four floppy points, and a yellow ruffled collar. The clown crow is posed as if they are juggling mid leap.

oOoOo, spooky ghost crow! Felt a little stumped for this, but that's okay, I've already made a lot of great hits this month.
#Mashaween25

#Mashaween25 day 26 - mummy 💀✨
Digital Illustration of a mummy seen from the waist up, but it's also part crow. The arms crossed over the chest turn into wings emerging from the wrapping. The wrapped head opens up into a crow beak.

Just a very normal crow hatching out of a candy corn egg for #Mashaween25. 💛🧡🤍
Digital Illustration of a bird's nest with a large piece of candy corn that has hatched open to reveal a baby crow.

Continuing my tradition of recreating a scene from Nosferatu (1922) for the vampire prompt in Mashaween! Crow-feratu?

#mashaween25 #artchallenge
Digital illustration recreating a scene from Nosferatu (1922). The vampire, who has been turned into an anthropomorphic crow, stands stunned at an open window as the sun rises.

#Mashaween25 day 23 - goblin.

Crow beaks for ears because why not!
Digital illustration of a goblin creature with crow features. It is sitting on a tree branch beside a small bird nest with eggs in it. The goblin has murky green feathers, bird feet with wings for arms. Though the face is primarily goblin-ish with a broad fanged mouth, bulbous nose, and wide set eyes, what would be the long pointed ears are just two crow beaks sticking out.

#Mashaween25 day 22 - Frankenstein's monster.

It's a mashup of mashups! I thought I'd take a break from drawing, but this maybe took just as long. 😅
Digital Illustration for the Mashaween prompt "Frankenstein's monster." It is a collage of previous days' crow creatures.

#Mashaween25 day 21 - eye of newt... I guess?? Before this prompt, I never actually thought about what "eye of newt" referred to. Is it literal? Is it floral? Well, now it's this!
Digital illustration of a mutant crow creature for the Mashaween prompt "eye of newt," with inspiration from an emperor newt. It has a beak but only a large central eye on the top of its head, and many pairs of eyes running down its back. The wings aren't feathered but instead covered in little nubby newt toes. The creature's back legs looks like typical newt legs, and the tail is not unlike a crow's tail.

#Mashaween25 day 20 - werewolf, but with a crow. Werecrow? There crow. 👇
Digital illustration of a werewolf, but it is also part crow. The figure is snarling its beak, revealing wolfish teeth. It has a glowing yellow eye, feathery wolf ears, and it has one winged arm raised with bird talons for claws. The dark sky is partly cloudy with a full moon that is a rotund glowing crow.

#Mashaween25 day 19 - snake, but specifically cobra.

…a Crowbra. 😀
Digital illustration of a creature that is part crow, part cobra. It has a crow’s face on a cobra’s neck, which fans out into wings. It stands up on two thick crow legs, with a long snake tail behind it. It is covered in mostly black feathers with grey scales down the front.

Scarecrow crow, but the double crow cancels out, so it’s just… scare!! 😱

#Mashaween25 day 18 - scarecrow
Digital Illustration of an unsettling scarecrow. It appears to be partially crow, with a pointed straw beak and wings, but hidden within the hay are peaks of a human skeleton inside. The scarecrow is jumping out of the tall grass, the sky looking ominous behind it.
