put it all on black
Drawing of an armless centaur-like creature in black pencil-like strokes, his face in silhouette. He is coming down from a leap with his back legs kicked up and his tail raised, his torso turned towards the viewer. His middle section is broken into segments from which blue wiggly radiating lines emerge. In the corner of the drawing is a cartoony simplified silhouette of a horse head smiling.

split tongue
Flat colour illustration of a werewolf with a thick mane of curling hair and humanlike hands. He has a serpent coiling around his body in nonsensical knots and a bristling coat of arrow shafts protruding from his back.

self restraint
Painting of a man being grabbed at by multiple black hands with a texture like volcanic glass. One of the hands covers his face leaving only his eyes looking out to the viewer as the other hands tear at his clothes. He holds one of the hands' wrists while his other hand stretches up to cradle the head of a dead swan. His outstretched arm has the exact same odd texture as all the other hands and arms grabbing him. The background is abstract and multicoloured.

Action!
Digital illustration resembling an old newspaper advertisement. Three black horse-shaped things stand together. One has the head of a studio camera, the other has a head like a studio light, while the third has a featureless face with more biomechanical elements. The horses are rendered with an organic, ridged texture, with dull highlights resembling wave-form shapes. In silhouette behind them are more normal-looking horse shapes mimicking their poses. Text in the bottom corner reads 'Lights. Camera. Action'. In the background are four stripes in a gradient from brown to yellow. There is some measure of wave-shaped distortion around the bottom of the picture.

what if it's not me?
Digital painting of a shiny black horse in a foggy twilight field, his head down to view his own reflection in a pool of water. In the pool, he is depicted standing in a field of golden barley, distorted and rippled. The plough constellation shines above him.

#TheFinalPam
A digital drawing of The Final Pam, a woman in a fancy, fur-collared dress, white-rimmed sunglasses and a bouffant hairstyle. She's smiling at the viewer, fingers steepled, and an there's an explosion behind her. Dialogue: "Hello again, the Smiths. Is next time now. Did you remember to invite Pam?"

I had the thought that fauxnicorns might be a little bendier than regular horses as a result of lion dna used in their tails, making them a little more flexible overall. Not sure!

High Tide 🌊 ✨ Hey guys I just finished this new painting in my ongoing series of paintings called ‘A Starry Place’ where I explore spaces that are meaningful and nostalgic to me. This piece is inspired by overcoming insurmountable challenges.
