SIX OF CROWS X WHAT WAKES THE BELLS

After his sister is cursed by a vengeful goddess, a former pickpocket must steal a relic from the most powerful man in the city to save her. But he can’t pull it off alone, and not everyone in his ragtag crew can be trusted.

Left to right. Top row: A foggy city with a spire in the background. The hands of a clock approaching 12. Smoke from an explosive in a building. Middle row: A man in a waistcoat pointing at something. “Tick… Tock…” A man in a waistcoat sitting down. Bottom row: Silver coins covered in blood. A group of people standing inside a clock tower. Rain on a cobblestone street.

Your monthly reminder:

Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

🌊The Angler's Bride🌊

My heart is a sunken altar. There, I thrive. There, I keep a ledger of bones. The deep remembers what the surface forgets.
A sea siren sits above a pile of bones with schools of fish, bones, and a giant angler fish around her.

I’m really excited to share that I won the Frank R. Paul Award for Best Magazine Cover Art! My painting Stasis, a self-portrait about invisible illness, was featured on the cover of Uncanny Magazine Issue 58 🖤

#art #painting #portrait #illustration
“Stasis” is a portrait painted by the artist Zara Alfonso, and is the first piece in her series about invisible illness. A portrait painting of a girl with skin so pale she’s almost translucent, her lips are tinged blue and she gazes upward through seemingly unseeing eyes. Pale moths and winged insects cover the expanse of her face and body, blending into her skin in places.

digital art, a satyr like figure with some exposed bones and a skeletal tail wearing a colorful skirt made of fabric strips with two big red braids. The figure's hair seems to be made of fabric, is teal and has the same colorful strips incorporated into it.

A bride in a white dress stands looking out a stone arch at a red moon while holding a bloodied knife. Her hands and hair are red with blood. The bottom of dress descends into a puddle of blood dripping off the steps.

A more modern #dnd commission this time, Felicity :D
Painterly bust portrait of a pale woman in her thirties, arms crossed and expression fierce as she looks to the viewer. She has blue-black hair cut in a shoulder-length bob. She wears a leather jacket over a tank top and has deep red lipstick. The scene is dark, lit by a cool overhead light with a fainter orange glow off in the background.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a gorgeous piece of cinema like Guillermo’s Frankenstein 🖤

Cover illustration by Eleonor Piteira of the book 'The Bloodweaver' by C. N. Kuster, featuring a young man with eyes closed, holding a spiralling ball of blue magic in his hand. Through the light of the magic we can see the bones of his hand. He's wearing a uniform with a knife on his belt, and there is a landscape of vineyards on the background.

A drawing of a man standing with his hands clasped in front of him. He wears a neatly tailored jacket with diamond motifs in black and grey, and his face is obscured by a silver mask with serene face and a thorny crown. The drawing shows both the front and back of the design.
