Started watching episodes of Fearful Symmetry from the @dungeonscrawlers.bsky.social and it is such a treat. Decided to do some drawing for fun tonight and sketched out some fanart of @rhiannonheld.bsky.social ‘s character Artemisia.

We need to identify burnout earlier!

In issue 6 of READ BEFORE BURNING, I explain why that's so important, present the results of my research study into early warning signs of #burnout, and discuss ways to use those signs for early recognition / intervention.

Purposefully set some time aside today to work on some art! Returning some focus to this Astarion piece while listening to an audiobook and it’s bringing so much joy.
🎉💖

Just digitally inking some tieflings having coffee. It’s just coffee, it’s not a big deal for my PC or anything (it’s a big deal).☕ 👀

A sketch of two tieflings sitting and enjoying a coffee date.

I've seen an old misunderstanding going around; that libraries don't benefit authors. But they do! A lot! Here's how:

One of my current #wip pieces; Tunuk and Biorni depicted in inks from @erinmevans.bsky.social ‘s Books of the Usurper series.
Tunuk gazes moodily down at Biorni, a horned rabbit skull.

Made some headway last night and this morning with this piece. Watercolors just feel so healing and cathartic to me. What’s one of your favorite art mediums?

Moving from sketch to water color stage is such a leap of faith/trust the process moment for me. It’s exciting and nerve-wracking every time.

Managed to get the of border (mostly) done today, which is a bit faster than my usual drawing pace. Grateful that some sketching time opened up today .

Started a new piece today—excited to see how the watercolors and inks go with this one.

Astarion featured in a side profile portrait casts his gaze downward. He is sketched in a bordered circle, which will later feature mementos of his character.

Got some time to sketch this morning, so I drew my tiefling wizard OC, Lumen Mothwing and his familiar Glim.

Lumen, a tiefling wizard, looks fondly down at his Luna moth familiar Glim, who is resting on his hand.

Hey there! I’m Molly, fantasy lover and book-wyrm, a forever tiefling in ttrpgs and an inks and watercolor artist who occasionally delves into digital.
St. Asla and Yinii from the Books of the Usurper Series by Erin M. Evans. Jester from Critical Role Gandalf fighting the Balrog. A Lovecraftian inspired Deep One gazing in awe at some Eldritch power.

“You shall not pass!” Digital piece I made a while back of Gandalf fighting the Balrog. Love this scene in both book and film form.

Pencil & ink pen drawing of Nanqii Four-Oryx ul-Hanizan from @erinmevans.bsky.social’s Books of the Usurper series. You can catch glimpses of him and other amazing dynamic characters in Empire of Exiles and Relics of Ruin.
Naqii, a horned Orozhandi merchant, gazes at viewer through half closed lids. A small smirk plays upon his lips. His horns are adorned in jewelry and his long hair frames his face. He wears an ostentatious feather-trimmed coat.

Decided to make one of those Art vs Artist 2024 compilations. I’ve enjoyed rediscovering how much I enjoy ink and watercolors and working on small surfaces while continuing to learn more about digital art. Looking forward to continuing on these paths in 2025.

Love a good skritch-scratch sketch session. Figured out the pose for the Dragonborn Fighter OC. 😊 ⚔️ 🛡️

I colored that illustration I did of @erinmevans.bsky.social’s awesome character Yinii from Empire of Exiles and Relics of Ruin! If you dig fantasy, mystery, or just awesome books, check these novels out! Also that QR code works, so scan it!

A horned young women in ornate robes conjures a QR code in ink for the fantasy books she stars in. This is Yinii, a sorcerer from the novels Empire of Exiles and Relics of Ruin, written by the amazing Erin M Evans. These books are a blend of fantasy, mystery, romance, political intrigue, and are some of my favorite books of all time!

Wanting to start another run of BG3 . I love using my PCs from other ttrpg campaigns and creating Tavs inspired by them. Looking forward to trying out some mods to further the experience. Here's a few of my characters turned Tav. 😊
