Good morning, a colour / environment study from yesterday. Keep feeling like I’ve not been pushing enough and I must catch up!
New Year stress… <:)

I’m so excited to finally share a piece I painted for the new #MTGLorwynEclipsed set! I had so much fun painting all that foliage, and huge thanks to my amazing AD Deborah Garcia for trusting me with this piece. 💚

The house belongs to no one.
It appears when the road grows long and the night turns cold.
Its doors open willingly. Its lights glow warmly for the lost.
Gods save the fools who trust its welcome.

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times
Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well:

The inks of dawn
Our expedition embodied the desire to find a new hue for our souls. After a year of travel, on the first day of the year, we arrived at the borders of our world. There, we discovered the color of the unknown.
Happy new year 2026 everyone! 🎆

Endlessly delighted by the Wuk Lamat print I got from @dreadwyrmtrance.bsky.social at Holmat, I just had to put her on my workspace wall. She just looks so kind and supportive ❤️

I'd really like to dig into some Monster Hunter art in the coming year. Any particular monsters you guys would like to see? I have a tiny list of names that keep popping up at cons.
I still haven't played yet, but I now own a copy of Worlds just to get a feel for the game and universe. <3

Fourth and final MtG proxy I made this year for a friend. :) I had the most fun with this concept and I tried to go for a kind of faded/vintage postcard look for the colors.

Third MtG proxy made for a friend for Christmas. This was probably one of my favorites because I really enjoyed working with the black, white, green, gold color palette.

Second MTG proxy made for a friend for Christmas! This was probably the toughest card for me since I've never drawn a dinosaur before and I really struggle with vehicles, but I had fun with all the textures in the piece.

I can finally share this little project I worked with a friend on! Earlier this year a friend contacted me to make some art for proxy cards of our friend group's favorite MTG commanders for Christmas. I've been working on these in secret since June. I have a few others I'll post separetely.

Thank you guys for a great HolMat!!! The cats are already trying to prevent me from leaving again, unaware that their churus are funded by cons.

If I ever tell you at a con that I’m going to draw a character and I don’t, it’s not that I lied, it’s that I have a queue of 10,0000,000 characters I want to draw, and the character I promised is in there somewhere 👍
