So this feels like the closure of a chapter. One I wasn't quite prepared for even if I sorta expected it.

DA will live on in our arts. I look forward to following/finding the new projects the amazing DA devs will work on - my heart goes to them.

I met my now-wife through Dragon Age - just before Inquisition's release.

The stories told, the characters I got to create and play to experience them, helped me discover and form who I am now.

My therapist had never seen me as excited as when Veilguard was released.

Dragon age's artists inspired me to pursue art - concept art and illustration - as a career. Matt Rhode was a huge inspiration.

After school when I was lost about what to aspire to professionally - John Epler's story about his own career progression was a much-needed light/direction.

Dragon Age was the game that made me want to work in games. I played games before but this was the first that truly spoke to me.

Dragon age Inquisition was my first game purchase as a mostly independent adult

I've debated, as someone who is not on social media all that much, on whether I wanted to weigh in on the sad news coming from Bioware.

I'm grieving, as are many in the fandom. But the words and feelings of those directly affected by this decision matter most.

Usually stick to 300dpi but with the canvas size set to at least 297 mm x 420 mm or, if working at an odd size, the smaller side is at least 200mm.
It has worked out well whenever I decide to print artwork and I always resize (down) when posting on social media so it doesn't affect that

I noticed a few months ago that my #DragonAge baes are quite thematically aligned with the different seasons. It was absolutely not done on purpose but it was good fuel for an illustration.

Like everyone else I went crazy for #DAI tarot cards. I don't think I ever achieved the look I wanted (shapes are hard) but I'm still really fond of both and my #dragonage OC's even more so

Veilguard has me thinking a lot about all my DA OCs and what they would be up to while the world is being thorn to shreds. My Cousland would be in the thick of it 💪 retirement is not a word she nows

Starting of strong with one of my most popular DA fanart pieces in honor of Veilguard's embargo being lifted. Really excited to have a new DA game to gush over soon (but not soon enough)
