An artist. But also a musician. It really just depends on the day.
Exquisite Corpse by Poppy Z. Brite

A very intense read that may be a bit too much to stomach for the overtly empathetic and those with weaker constitutions. Masterfully written within its context overflowing a well of despair and bile.

Hemwick really is such a big ass cat when you see him like this.

Decided this is my go-to. It never steers me wrong.

Years ago I did a little sketch of the Imp from DOOM 2016. Long after that I decided to give him digital life!

I’ve also got a cacodemon sketch. Should I give that the same treatment?

Tonight’s glass is filled with a Canadian whisky called “Legacy”. Pretty smooth, all things considered. Would be dangerous in a mixed drink ‘cause you’d hardly be able to tell.

Can’t remember if I ever posted my first digital self portrait. Well, here it is with a couple backgrounds anyway. Hopefully I’ve improved on the next one I do!

Getting older I’ve started getting more into whiskey. May even call me a connoisseur, or becoming one.

Especially since cannabis is no longer safe for me. 🥲

Just finished @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social’s Veniss Underground. As a former SFX artist, this world seems like a dream to take on with practical effects.

Reading Balzac’s War at the end has made me want to try my hand at sketching Jamie/Flesh hound too… so maybe that’ll happen soon.

An awkward gesture? He turned around and did it a second time! Does this not look deliberate?

How anyone can see this as anything but a nazi salute is deliberately glib.

And fyi, the “Roman salute”, also known as the FASCIST salute was molded to become the nazi salute. THE PROBLEM IS STILL THE SAME.

Drew up a turtle ship/sub for my wife’s DnD campaign.
His name’s Leonard.

Sketching digitally is still weird to me.

Made gyoza 🥟 for the first time tonight. First dumpling by hand actually. I’m no Japanese grandma, but I’d say these don’t look half bad! Now to taste them once cooked…

Usually when I post photos of myself it’s usually like my pfp or old modeling/spfx makeup photos of mine. But I figure I’d rather stick with who I am right now than just focusing on the past. So, here’s some proof of life!

Embarrassing how long I had to scroll to find more art I made. I really need to kick it back into gear! But I’m being kind to myself about it.
Made this when AI started getting big and stealing art.
It may not be my favorite as far as technique but it was born of strong emotion!

Dog eyebrows evolved due to our direct impact as humans on their domestication.

So now this 100lbs nugget can give me the puppy face without his eyes showing.

Rude. But also we love him so much.

A cauldron of witchy delights!

Kind of a departure from other stuff I’ve done, but I’ve been trying to work on styles I’m less familiar/comfortable with to broaden my abilities.

So more vibrant and cute stuff will pop up!

Monsters can also dress up for Halloween!

A lil’ fella I drew up in October.
Done with POSCA markers, liquitex paint, and ink.
