“Misty Woods”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a dark, closed-in forest with breaks of sunlight and fog. Streaks of light shine through the dense canopy as a small, hidden feline watches the surroundings from a safe enclosure.

Messed up on my current large art piece so I made a small painting to keep myself from ripping said large art piece up.

(Will try to salvage it later or tomorrow, but, yeah. Frustrated and feeling like a failure.)

Enjoy the watercolor while I mope.

…ever wonder why some frogs are so very aLERT?! 👁️👅👁️
(Vegan formulationavailable, not safe for humans. May contain mosquito larvae. ReeeeEEEEK!)
🐸💜🐸
A marker, ink, and paint pen drawing of a fake bottle label, rectangular 2.75x1.5”, with a pink frog on a dark green background with a graded red and gold border. The frog is facing left, and has large gold eyes with tiny black pupils in the center. Overlaying the frog’s body is an angled white ribbon, with red text that says “FrogaLERT tablets 100mg”. Above the frog is written “keep your peep all night long!” in silver text on the green background. This is a joke about caffeine pills.

My drawing of Shambles, York was finished on 10th January 2022. In the centre is the 3 storey 41, 42 Shambles, a 15th century building that seems to be having a whispered talk to numbers 7-9 across the way.

Pencils drawing of a narrow, almost deserted, street. There are timber framed and brick buildings to either side of the narrow roadway. The buildings on the left appear to lean over the street.

The image depicts a futuristic sci-fi scene. At the center of the composition is a woman in a skintight cybernetic suit. She floats in the air before a huge glowing energy core emitting a bright golden-orange light. The figure is illuminated by a contrast of cool turquoise and warm orange tones. The character's hair flutters, and dark lines run around her.

Found this sound advice to myself on FB memories, 10th January 2018: "Time to stop and think about the whole image after spending the afternoon drawing details. Some of the values look a bit out".

A doorway in King's Manor, York.

#ArchitecturalIllustration
#pencil #drawing
#ArtShare
A nearly complete pencil drawing of a doorway. It has an elaborate coat of arms above it with animals to either side of a shield. The doorway has a richly decorated arch supported by highly decorated jambs. Some of the stones of the lower part of the wall are yet to be completed. A modern interior can be seen through the doorway.

Just fucking help people. If you can do something to fix a problem, and it costs you nothing (and in cases like this, *actually helps you too*), just do it, for god's sake.

Sometimes it doesn't matter who made the problem, what matters is who's in a position to sort it.

I wanted to do another ink piece for a while and seeing all the hype for the new Nurgle Warhammer releases got me keen to paint a Rotsword Knight.
I think this is one of my favourite things ive painted in a long while!

Ink on bristol paper- 9x12"
Ink painting of a huge bloated knight in heavy armour. A heavy blade is hefted across one shoulder, circular ornaments hang off the chest and the armour is pitted and corroded from corruption. A single antler protrudes from his head.
