It's a bird of relatively raven-like nature! Sculpted in paperclay and plaster over a plastic-wrapped plasticine base. My feathery friend is now ready for a sealer, and several coats of paint 💅

Very mysterious, very strange...what could it be? 🤔 Cast your votes now!

"A Rare Sight"
3.5"x5.5" graphite drawing on moleskine paper.
A plant you'll never find in all the records of botany.

Fully fired and ready to go! For a first attempt, I'm very happy with how it turned out (and even more happy that the gift seemed to be well-loved 🫶🖤)

I really appreciate everyone's support for my first sgraffito piece 🥹 I made it as a gift for my friend's birthday, it was a very important year for her so I wanted to do something special 🖤

Here's a couple more angles of the piece before it went into the kiln~

A freehand 'sgraffito' design on a bisque-fired mug using only a barbecue skewer as a tool. It was my very first attempt at the technique and I had no idea what I was doing, but it was a very fun experience!

"Faun" - graphite drawing

Slowly working through documenting my art backlog and storing things properly, signing and dating things, finishing old WIPs, all that good stuff. I've got about 3 years of stuff waiting on the sidelines, so wish me luck!

Closeup of "Mooneater"
11"x14" Green micron lineart on bristol board.
The lines are much cleaner than my usual work, so I'm thinking it would probably translate very well into a tattoo.

I realized I never shared the finished front of the hand sculpt! Taken just before the first bake so it's extra glossy~

"Apple of My Eye"

'How many more pieces, I wonder, would make a monster a man? I have studied every contour of their bones, every whistling melody of their vocal cords, every perfume of their flesh - but still, I cannot say. I know at least this piece is precious indeed.'

A nice closeup of that meaty stump before I added the loop the pendant hangs from (which, of course, covered most of the detail 🫠)

The first work session on a miniature wall-plaque creature.

Sculpted with medium-hardness Monsterclay on a small sheet of plexiglass.

A small drawing from 2017 unearthed from the folders.

Look at those beans! 🐾

To make sure I didn't crush all of the detail on the other side of the hand, I baked the clay before adding any meat to the palm.

Hand-sculpted (ha) in super sculpey, a prototype for a small run of bronze pendants.

Hello, Bluesky! Just your local monster artist dipping a toe into this wild west. I make drawings and sculptures (mostly wearable) and I like to write stories about my creatures~

This here is a resin mask of my character the Mortal God of Paralysis. There will be plenty more soon!
