i'm A, would love to draw some more collections of symbols & glimpses in any form (covers, posters, etc) #portfolioday

2 risograph prints. one is a collection of images: a molted cicada shell and a bundle of plant stalks trailing off into tendrils & tied by a yellow ribbon over panels of train tracks surrounded by grass & trees under a reddish sky; the dark entrance to a tunnel; a shadowy crowd. the other shows foliage hangs around a looming cave mouth—total darkness hides whatever may be inside. in a small panel above, slashes of red spill out into swirls of teal & ochre. risograph printed cover art for Side Story: an assemblage of panels showing glimpses into different scenes and symbols: ruins in an arch, a doorway over the sea, a ladder against a tree, a kite in the sky; dice, knucklebone, hourglass, clover chain. a comet sweeps over scattered flames, suspended between a starry night sky & a nervous system. symbols (an eye, a sickle, a drop of blood, texts on a phone, a mushroom, lightning, a mirror, a bird) are arranged in small panels around the scene. a biological tree of life poster: small panels show examples of animals from different phyla, including spiralia (octopus, giant clam), chordata (birds, mammals, fish), amblacraria (urchins, sea stars), and porifera (sponges). behind them are curving branches of a symbolic tree, in shades of blue. other panel sequences show different cellular processes, and the sun & moon in endless procession.

We have a ways to go to our goal but the next one is 5000 letters. Help us get there if you live in NYC and want increased and stable funding for our public libraries. Also, please ask other NYers to send a letter to the Council member too: actionnetwork.org/letters/city...
City Council, we demand half a percent of the overall city budget for libraries!
In response to the NYC FY2026 Budget, adopted this June, the Brooklyn Public Library, the New York Public Library, and the Queens Public Library released a joint statement thanking City Leaders for in...

Patrons get weekly access to the process of my next project, a false materia medica titled "On the Preparation and Use of Medicinal Divinities".

An image of two humanoid figures side-by-side, one with the head of a bird, the other with a star for a head. A crowned eye and a set of tangled, alien ribs is drawn on their chests. Behind them are circular star maps, and further back abstract organic tubes. Parts of them are labeled: eyes, mind, suffering, desire, flesh, blood. The title reads: "On the Preparation and Use of Medicinal Divinities by D. Taphanel"
