Another surface paint for SpongeBob 4! There were painted over models made for either SB3 or SB2. This prop was used a bunch in the film which was really exciting to see!

Hooray! I'm so excited to finally get to share two of the cards I made for the new #MTGLorwynEclipsed set!
It was such a joy to work on these and I'm still pinching myself to see my name on a magic card, how crazy! Many thanks to my amazing AD Jameela Wahlgren who was an absolute joy to work with!

Door of Destinies - for Magic: The Gathering's "Lorwyn Eclipsed". AD: Tom Jenkot
I was asked to use a cut-paper style for this piece, but as I don't usually work in that medium, I thought I'd try and emulate the look using acryla gouache instead! I think it turned out really cool.

one way u can support ur disabled friends is by offering to contact venues/restaurants/etc ahead of time to ask for accessible accommodations for them. it’s a free way to show them u love them and that their comfort is important to u

Lorwyn Eclipsed was the first MtG set where I served as a lead art director. That meant getting to pitch what these special edition cards would look like, and bring on so many new artists from my picture book days!
Some more of the cards I ADd got spoiled today:

if anyone deserves more say in their workplace environment it's post-2020 fast food workers. keep boycotting.
A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things.
Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years.
Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US.
Shareholders are demanding they settle.
Keep boycotting.
