Eyes of Kings.

Quote something random from your phone

Why did I search this in the first place? Why crab? Battery is exactly 69%?? Did I really need to save this? it is all a mystery
Phone screenshot searching "wicker vs rattan" on google with two ads at the top; on the right is a wicker (or rattan) loveseat, on the left is a huge chair (?) shaped like a crab.

Post-Halloween spooky comic. Check back each night until it's done 👻
Something Different: a comic. A pumpkin-headed man looks at the audience silently, then blinks and tilts his head. He then looks off screen with a startled look, saying "Oh shit, right, the story." He starts explaining. "So as I was saying..." The last panel is a flash back to a night scene, on an isolated ranch house near some woods. It's raining hard, and a silhouette is framed in the bright window. "It was a dark and stormy night."

Imagine telling a scary campfire story like "no I swear this is true, a friend of a friend of mine knew someone kidnapped by a ghost, this is real" and then getting to the end like "so I'm making this bit up, but this is how the story ends-"

Anyway why is the 5th Hell House not found footage

Commissions! Probably not final as client usually has some revisions and is currently very busy, but I wanted to put these up to say my queue is currently empty, and if you wanted art from me (portrait, halfbody, full body, anything) now is a good time!! Link in reply, signal boosts appreciated.

A (slightly belated) wedding gift for my brother and my new sister-in-law :)

I printed it for them and did gold leaf on the big ring (which was based on the big gold hoop they had instead of a wedding arch) and oh my god I have never used gold leaf before, that stuff is a menace

I just finished this up in a SmArtSchool mentorship class with Sam Weber. 😊 The assignment was to create an illustration with an original character, and I went with my current D&D character 😅
A woman with a shaved head in gold armor stands among dark briars. The briar thorns pierce her armor and skin in a few places, and she hangs her head in a defeated posture.
