A sketchbook lays on top of an open art portfolio. The sketchbook shows a half-inked drawing of an angry looking dwarf king with a bajillion braids holding an art staff. Two black and white comic pages are visible in the open portfolio. They include images of a masked woman, a dwarf in armor, and three young boys.

How about some Game Grumps art?

Danny do love his stegos.
Art drawn on a computer that looks paper-cut or cloth-cut. It depicts a blue stegosaurus with purple spots (some shaped like stars) and yellow, sparkly plates. He is running at the viewer, stepping out of the main picture and into a black frame. The environment is dirt/jungle/plants with a bush with orange berries in the far background. There is a man riding on the Stegosaurus's back. It is Danny from Game Grumps. He's wearing a black shirt with the NSP star logo on it in red. He's wearing jeans with ripped knees, and is throwing up the metal sign. Both Danny and the Stegosaurus are smiling.

Pen drawing of a colossal scale feminine figure with eyes of the black of space with stars and long black curly hair spilling down over their back and shoulders as they stand ¾ profile over a landscape twisted landscape of skinny towers rising out of a sea of fluid, organic shapes of floating gems in blue, pink, purple, red and green and small figures with smooth copper discs for faces in the foreground. The being is haloed by a giant gas giant planet in copper and pink in a purplish-blue sky with spiral patterns of stars in the sky.

the old editions of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark need to be put back in schools again, if for no other reason than I'd feel better knowing more kids were being put through the spidercheek rite of passage.

As long as I'm dying on hills: kids need access to horror stories.

Children out there have and will go through absolutely horrific things that they don't have the words for, that they can't process on their own. Kids already know monsters are real; they also need to know monsters can be survived.

I'm struggling right now to make art. Please bear with me and afford me some patience, my comrades in art.
Pile of the bodies High at austerlitz and Waterloo Shovel them under. Let me work, I am the grass I cover all. and pile them high at Gettysburg And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun. Shovel them under and let me work 2 years 10 years and passengers ask the conductor What place is this? Where are we now? I am the grass. Let me work.

This is a bat theric! Her name is Grey! I always have trouble deciding how to dress a character whose wings get in the way. This isn't perfect, but the alternative is piercing the wings. I mean, she's already got a few piercings, so I guess a belt wouldn't be a stretch.
Sketch of a bat character. She has large wings, is wearing a headset for talking, and has some feathers in her hair. Her feet are backwards. She is wearing a shift of cloth that goes around her neck and between her legs.

first of all ; do not start your big epic comic right away. i know you want to. i know it's beautiful in your heart. make a 10 page comic first so you can get used to panelling, playing with word bubbles, etc. ALSO ignore the webtoons format. listen to me boy. do not make a vertical scroll comic

#surreal #macabre #PenAndPaper #TraditionalArt #DarkSurrealism #DarkArt #Art #InkSky #GrimDark
Pen drawing of a human with a face that has it's skin distended and stretched, tubes and cybernetics surrounding the head in the armored cowl with the left eye replaced by a single, black lens. The flesh fills the hollow of the cowl while the rest of the body is encased in an armored space suit showing signs of wear as he strokes his pet, a multi-limbed amphibious looking creature with 6 legs while standing in front of a portal that shimmers with purple and blue energy while shadowy forms lurk and try to form in it, hinting at creatures on the other side unable to come through.

Anyhow. I have to go get blood work done this morning to make sure the med I’m on isn’t causing cancer in my lymph nodes.

Still have prints and zines available, and smaller commissions to help cover these sudden medical bills ⤵️

I am suddenly having a lot of medical bills coming in, and am still waiting to either get a call back on a job app/SSDI app. The birds are being taken care of, so ko-fi tips are going to this now, along with sales of #art and #zines

To be fair, letting the scenes play out in my head and coming up with the words for them are two very different processes.

Well, here it is.

And I'm down for the count on work again because the dry weather has made my eye start acting up again. I can't work on artwork for long still.

TYSM to people who have donated so far. I've been quiet about it but it really does help so much.

Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Google Play, Libby/Overdrive, itch. If there's a digital platform for ebooks out there, you can probably find The Dark Side of Super and The Backwards Knight.

Ask your library for them.

Same with physical locations, or directly through me for signed copies.

Image of a book, The Dark Side of Super, on a broken glass bed. Red arrows point to tropes in the book: Twist ending, Super powers...with a cost, Thriller, Multi POV, Snarky Characters, Urban Fantasy, Normal People...?, Novella.

I have two characters in book 3 who are based on the Game Grumps more than just a little. This is Dylin and Deni, who captain the D&D WorldVS show.

In case you are wondering, Dylin has been cursed by the fae. He's part wyvern now.
A drawing of two characters against a plain yellow background. The one on viewer left has short brown hair with pink streaks in it, is wearing a purple shirt, and is belching pink fire. The one on viewer right seems slightly upset by the fire, considering his curly grey hair is on fire.
