Ahh I've been busy sorting, folding and packing for Harmonic Flow tomorrow at Strangeways FXBG!

Here's the new shirt design, Cosmic Terrene (featuring the Space Toad). It has glitter, and comes in unisex (XS-4X) and ladies (S-3X).

I can't call this one Fairy Ring but that's still the idea.

The waterbrush here is alright. It's probably great for quick layout on the road, and it does restrict the amount of water I can lay down (this watercolor journal is not a fan of big washes), but I prefer natural brush bristles.

If you're around Fredericksburg, VA, you can find me at Harmonic Flow this Saturday. I'll have free stickers for fans, if you mention you follow/found me on social media/patreon/etc.

The Mushroom Witch in a style I mostly try to use with the SPAAAACE Witch! cast. The Space Toad transcends the boundaries of the cosmos and occupies the time and place of its choosing, always. -ink and watercolors on watercolor rag.

The original apperance of the Mushroom Witch from Perna Studio's Spellcasters 3 card set, and the second apperance of the Mushroom Witch (and with Space Toad) in a Perna Studio's card set, Elementals 2.

-Copic markers and ink

Hey y'all, I'm gonna have a theme this week leading up to my event on Saturday, Harmonic Flow in Fredericksburg, VA!

It's prime autumn season, y'all! I did this little painting in my watercolor journal recently for reasons.

The special of series 3, Sake, started as a sticker design, a thank you for the for backers of the original Kickstarter. Upgrading it to an illustration and pin was incredibly satisfying. (15/15)
September 30, 2025 at 5:27 PM
Kölsch is my fav illustration of series 3, despite not really being a beer type I enjoy. (14/15)
September 29, 2025 at 8:54 PM
I knew with series 3 I wanted to have more interactive dragons, hence Dunkel going all in on its beer glass... literally. Also, my first liquid glitter pin! (13/15)
September 26, 2025 at 10:29 PM
When asked about more beer dragons, Hefeweizen was the most popular ask (folks were super enthusiastic about it, unprompted), so it was the first new brew I knew I'd be depicting. (12/15)
September 25, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Onto series 3, Cascadian Dark was suggested by a patron at Tekko one year; deep red, notes of pine sap and smoke, near exclusive brew of the PNW. (11/15)
September 24, 2025 at 7:46 PM
Lambic, the special of series 2, was my second pin design with glitter. Were I to redesign it, I would use transparent enamel on the smokey clouds and a pearlescent effect on the belly/forelegs. (10/15)
September 23, 2025 at 10:40 PM
I perhaps didn't NEED another heavy and smooth beer style depicted, but as I prefer to chew my beer, Porter was going to be represented. (9/15)
September 23, 2025 at 5:42 PM
Brown Ale I always felt like is the sleeper of series 2. I was especially happy with it's head, and the pin design itself, but caramel notes here is often overlooked in favor of chonkier dragons. (8/15)

When I constructed the Drachtoberfest series I decided to keep each set of 5 with repeating themes: a color, heavy/medium/light, dark, a popular, and a special. Some of those themes were combined in each set, but Eisbock here is the dark of series 2, and my first pin design with glitter. (7/15)

Marzen is the official Oktoberfest beer dragon, so also appears on the Drachtoberfest logo, rampant, styled like a heraldic shield. (6/15)

I'll be at the Maryland Rennfest this Saturday in a yellow Drachtoberfest shirt with these Mead stickers! Just ask for a beer dragon (and maybe remind me to apply sunscreen).
September 18, 2025 at 10:05 PM
Mead was my first solo opportunity to do a stained glass design and step up what I would be offering of a more deluxe pin series. The rainbow metal variant was a deliberate limited exclusive, the blue glitter was an oops that's worked out well!
September 17, 2025 at 10:29 PM
Each Drachtoberfest series is 5 illustrations, with the last being the "special" - a less traditional brew.

Mead caps off series 1, and is also the most popular of the sets! (5/15)
September 17, 2025 at 10:24 PM
It was also the first choice of redesign by poll vote during Green and Gold. The Green Ale variant is limited to campaign orders!
September 16, 2025 at 10:16 PM
Amber Ale was inspired by a couple French dragons. (4/15)
September 16, 2025 at 10:14 PM
IPA's design was inspired by the classic Saint George and the Dragon (3/15)

The pin was accidentally oversized back in the day but all new Drachtoberfest dragons exceed two inches!
September 12, 2025 at 8:05 PM
Pilsner came up for vote as a redesign choice but lost to Amber Ale and Stout. Folks love a tipsy dragon, so one day it'll happen. (2/15)
