A painting of a blue and purple tiger dragon crouched in a glowing blue-green swamp, and lit by mysterious pink light. The dragon has a threatening snarl of an expression.

OH WELL GEE WOW, YOU CAN UPLOAD GIFS NOW!

I guess I've been under a rock.

Animated this PFP for gloryforgood over on DA! It took me about 3 hours. I have posted the Timelapse to my DA and my TikTok if you're interested! (link in about section)

Fuck censorship. They're coming after you next, whether you make porn or not. I have never sold NSFW services or artwork, yet here's my termination from Stripe! Fully SFW, innocent headshots of furries = adult content. This is what we've been trying to fucking tell y'all this whole month!

Drawing pokemon from memory but in a 'vibe off of the design' way and not a 'try to get it accurate' way. Also testing out a looser style for illustration where the color + shading are all on the same layer.

The true reason why the drive-through lines are so long
A digital illustration of a dragon sleeping on the roof of a burger joint ("Up n Away burger" a parody of In-n-out) drive-through at sunset. The dragon's tail is blocking the drive-through. Employees have mixed reactions, both laughing and frustrated. The car line is backing up. Some drivers laugh and take pics, others are annoyed.

As some of you fellow fantasy-art fans have pointed out, Brian Froud certainly seems influenced by Bauer's work, especially early in his career, years before he designed the Mystics for Jim Henson's "The Dark Crystal". These images come from 1978's "The Land of Froud". Great stuff!

do not, my friends, become addicted to cat smell
A comic. Panel 1: A drawing of a black and white puppy. Text reads "MY PARENTS GOT...a puppy! WOW!". The puppy is labeled Shamus. There is a small drawing of a black and white cat with the text "move over, Amity!" Panel 2. Hershel holds Shamus while thinking "Ah...animal". Several arrows point to Shamus, reading "same color as my cat" "same weight as my cat" "soft fur (like my cat)" Panel 3. Hershel takes a big sniff, imagining Amity and what she smells like (flowers, fresh croissants) Panel 4: Returning to reality, Hershel remembers that DOGS STINK? Like poop and trash. Both Hershel and Shamus appear confused.

The exhibit of Scott Eagle's work inspired by mine or used by me for book covers is epic, at East Carolina University. 28 years of collaborations. Scot taught me the power of the ecstatic. 1/?
gorgeous blues with fish glimmering through and a blue bird with flame dropped into that sea a baleful blue eye amid a monster of aquatic demeanor and rainbows shooting out in the backdrop leaves or fronds that end in bird heads while on the green of that whole cities ghost and burn. red flower above. a head of cut up bits of ruler and flowers bursting forth on long stalks that's kind of a headshot
