My art in 2025!
A ton of character work. Designs, color palettes and anatomy was the focus. Some character renders with lighting studies as well.
Several mapping studies, including topography and strict top-down views.
Environments! Heavily referenced studies.

Hopefully more improvement in 2026!
A line up of several different colored cats of all sizes. Two character ref sheets, one of a fluffy tortie named Visage and one of an orange a white thin cat named Animosity. In the middle is a purpleish cats with tufted fur. Three rendered cat designs with soft shading and bold rim lighting. Three maps: one of an island in a river, one of a culvert in a cliff face and one of a lake and the surrounding area in topographical view in sepia Four landscape studies separated by slanted black lines: the ocean coast at sunset, a swamp at night, a field with rocks at dawn and a live oak forest during the day

🔸 Roadrunner's Celestial Highway 🔸
Mixed media painting, 2.5" x 7"

Here's the finished roadrunner! The original will be available on my patreon tomorrow (www.patreon.com/sasharjones), and I'll have playmats and prints at MFF this coming week.
A wide format traditional painting of a roadrunner in a vividly colored landscape with chamisa shrubs in a semi-abstract landscape. Both the roadrunner and the environment are in bright hues of orange, pink, turquoise and violet.

New kitten alert!
These 5, 6.5wo, came to RCC yesterday. They have URI and parasites. They are with foster mom Renee. Last evening we did their FeLV/FIV test(neg), vaccine, anti-parasitics, microchip, and started antibiotics. Donations always appreciated.

Five 6.5 week old kittens with URIs cuddle puddles on an outdoor loveseat. Two ginger boys, calico, tabico, and tabby/white girls. They have decent weight for age. Super lethargic from being sick. Ginger 6.5 week old kitten just after intake. Calico 6.5 week old kitten. She was the only one with a bit of performative spice. All five kittens after all their tests and treatments, a bit of clean up, and a good meal.

Never walk into a cage willingly. If you're already in one: break out.

Digital faux linocut. Another plan for the future. #art #tiger #quotes #fauxlinocut #printmaking #linocut

I made some designs for my concepts on Life, Death, Order and Chaos. The entities are not necessarily cats, but the cats of the world would think of them like this.

They are the embodiments of the origins of magic.

These dancers are a common sight at Minneapolis protests and cultural events. Protesters are gathered around as they wait for the protest against ICE to start in south Minneapolis.

Ceratosaurus nasicornis. A new illustration of this very distinctive Jurassic predator.
#SciArt
A digital portrait illustration of Ceratosaurus, a carnivorous Jurassic dinosaur, identifiable by the three horns on its head- one on the tip of its snout, and one above each eye.

Life advice for the ages. Those doing wrong want you tired and hopeless. But stay angry. And when a chance is in front of you: bite back.

Digital plans for a real linocut. I'm anxiously awaiting a press to make this stuff possible with my RSI in my hands.

#art #tiger #resist #linocut
The image is digital art made up to look like a two color linocut print. It features a geometric twisting snarling tiger. It's flanked by the text "Stay Angry" and "Bite Back" that follows the contours of the tiger.

I feel a strange need to repost this art. Sometimes art needs reposting y'know? Like this art. Did you know lionesses sometimes take out their males when the pride is under intense pressure? Apparently bees, ants, & termites do this too. #art

Available as a print! www.inprnt.com/gallery/pala...
Digital artwork with a square aspect ratio. It features six highly stylized lionesses in a pride circling a slain male lion. The male is shown from top-down view while the females are shown from a side view. The lionesses have mandala patterns in their fur. The dead male lion appears skinny and old. The style is similar to a vintage print on textured paper. The color themes are gold and red. The bottom right contains the artist's signature and the the word "yong-gi" which is a Korean word for courage.
