a simple line drawing of a cityscape, punctuated by the violent impact of a human figure with a large abstract wing emerging from it. A digital color illustration of tall, thin, old growth trees in a forest which appear to lit up from within. At the center bottom of the image, a female figure drinks from a sake cup as a bloom of smoke emerges from her head. Around her are robed figures seated as if they were rock formations. Large fruit hang as abstract motifs within the trees. A panel of transparent hands, palms raised together, nests in the center of the image. A digital ink drawing of a human figure viewed from behind as they stand next to a pine tree while looking at the silhouette of a city in the distance. Their clothing drapes on the ground similarly to a pool and then forms a rivulet of water that "leaks" out of the panel into the frame. A digital watercolor painting of an altar for Guanyin with lit incense and a small basket of citrus fruit laid before her. The altar is in a lush courtyard garden, guarded by a solitary black cat. Succulents, bonsai, ferns, vines, flowering and fruiting trees, and plants of all kinds surround the altar, as incense smoke wafts into a pale blue sky.

Really enjoyed playing through the demo for Vholume, new game by one of the Straftat/Babbdi devs and featuring music by 1000 Eyes (Signalis composer).

In love with the architecture, the hidden little snapshots of lives lived in an impossible space.

I created this website to showcase Black Canadian industry veterans in animation a few years ago. It's appropriate to bump it up again this Black History Month.

For my followers in the EU, there is an European citizens’ initiative you can sign to demand the full suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement.
If you are for BDS this would be a huge step up.

Sisters of the Speaking Tree 🌳🌞
A watercolor and ink drawing of a large, gnarled, overgrown tree with eight faces appearing in its leaves. The hollow of the tree holds a headless statue, and a person is genuflecting before the statue. The tree is surrounded by water and a large swamp, along with the ruins of stylized stone arches.

It's #secretsamol once again! This year I drew Ms. Chantilly Scathe and her train flerting with Pickman for Navigatorsnorth on tumblr!
Ms. Chantilly Scathe shoves a bouquet of roses on Pickman's face while hanging from her train. Pickman recoils back in surprise as confetti pops out of the train's door and doves fly out

venus in capricorn turns four years old this month, so I'm posting the full comic here to celebrate. 1/15
Front cover for 'Venus in Capricorn' by Jules Valera. Drawn in black and white, the outline of their face is barely visible through a flurry of snow and noise. A row of empty white panels lines the bottom of the image. Black page with the outline of a frayed rope net in the middle. A tiny snowflake melts delicately on the edge. Text reads VENUS in CAPRICORN - After the passing of a long, dark season, the reflection speaks.

The Long Way Home 🌕🧭
A digital ink and watercolor painting of a brown-skinned figure carrying a paper lantern and staff as they walk through a path in a stylized forest leading to a standing stone archway. The moon hangs above the canopy, and a decorative motif lines the top and bottom of the image.

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

River Snake's Bride 🐉🌺
A watercolor and ink drawing of a pale green serpent growing leaves and flowers off its body. It encircles two figures, the first is wearing long feminine robes and jewelry while the second is wearing tradition pre-colonial Filipino garb and holds a sword. Each of them is accented by a white bird and a moon and sun symbol, respectively.
