Only real fans know that Mystery Saja was Garfield all along.

Hey, happy birthday!
I’m Caleb, an artist and art director. I love making art for publishing and tabletop games. Comics, picture books, I love it all.
An armored vampire lord astride a nightmare, its mane and tail ablaze Victor Vallakovich, wizard adept, counterspelling a powerful curse. The Roc of Mt. Ghakis, a massive raven over 3 stories tall, landing on a snowy peak. A tired warrior, dressed in tattered brigandine.

I’m going to be attending Lightbox on Saturday! No table, just wandering and hoping to meet some folks. Hope to see you there!

Can’t remember the time I last participated in a #PortfolioDay, so here’s hoping this makes up for lost time.

Hi, I’m Caleb! I love teaching, tabletop roleplaying games, and doing fantastic art of all sorts.
A digital drawing of a gargantuan raven, its wings spread over a snowy, rocky landscape. A grey, gloomy angel, skin like marble and hair like tarnished gold, wielding a mace in one hand and gesturing to you with the other. A nightmare horse, a demonic steed with fire for mane and trail, the mount for the D&D villain Count Strahd Von Zarovich. A feminine vampire consort dressed in a long red gown.

Years after ceasing to be an art teacher, what do I finally procure? Corduroy jacket with patches on the elbows. My journey to cliché is completed.
Medium (headless) shot of me with a tan corduroy jacket with patches over the elbows. You’re not missing anything. Mostly full shot of me wearing jeans and a tan jacket with patches on the elbows. So professorial.

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula.

Anastraya Karelova, from “Curse of Strahd”, in a mood.
A digital painting of a horrific, bat-like vampire monster with long hair and a tall forehead. Some of you will definitely think she’s hot.

Went to #2025SDCC today. Pretty cool stuff.
Almost as cool as this beaded bracelet my youngest daughter made me.
A beaded bracelet with lettered beads that reads “MAYBE THATS THE REAL PUNK ROCK”

I know you might be going though it, but know you’re not alone.
A digital composition of the word “Punkrocker” arranged like the classic title of comic book superhero “Superman”.

Hmmm.
Even after 40+ years, it’s still invisible to me.

Sadly, my fanart of a Mr. Terrific popsicle is merely “okay”.
A photo taken of a black and white ink drawing. The subject is a “Mr.Terrific novelty popsicle” along the lines of what a child might get once they e shelled over their hard-earned allowance: gun ball eyes all over the place, ice-cream kind of sloppy. It’s not likely Mr. Terrific would be impressed.

Digital art of a teenage girl in a fantasy gown and long wavy hair. There is a blue cast over the entire image. The girl is anxiously turning away from the viewer, as though she’s being pursued.

A distal illustration. An upward-tilted full portrait of an angelic male-presenting figure, pale skinned and bare-chested, clutching a massive flanged mace. His large, light grey wings flutter behind him.

Which Doru are You?
Doru m, from the D&D module “Curse of Strahd”, is a recently-turned vampire spawn, struggling with his transformation. He’s pale and gaunt with straggly brown hair and wearing a plain brown tunic and hood. He’s wearing pulling the lip of the hood as if hiding from the viewer.

bluesky's open, quote one art to promote yourself #artpost
A digital watercolor drawing of a hunchbacked fantasy henchman, the butler of Ravenloft castle -Cyrus Belview - from the Dungeons and Dragons module “Curse of Strahd”. He is constructed of different sorts of body parts - human and animal - with a huge duck’s foot as his left leg, shaggy paws for hands, and scales on the left side of his face. He clutches a very large wooden spoon that drips a green liquid.
