One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Black & White Spawn sketch. Pure black ink, heavy shadows, and negative space doing the drama.

#Spawn #Art #FanArt #ComicArt #InkDrawing #HighContrast #DigitalInks #Illustration
High-contrast black-and-white illustration of a caped, skull-adorned antihero standing amid shattered rock and scattered skulls. The figure’s eyes glow white; a ragged cloak billows, and one hand crackles with energy. Bold shadows and sharp contours emphasize the dramatic pose.

Drawn by hand, fueled by hope.“We Are Dreamers.” Fat curves, tight counters, zero apologies. ❤️

White, bubbly hand-lettered script reading “We Are Dreamers” on a wrinkled black fabric background.

Been playing Monument Valley again. Still in awe of its serene architecture, impossible geometry, & quiet storytelling. This study is a small appreciation of the art direction pioneered by Ken Wong and the team at ustwo.

Study of Amazing Spider-Man #93 (Spidey vs. The Prowler).
Romita Sr.’s use of diagonals, contrast, and motion is unreal. Every line pulls your eye, every color hits like rhythm. Classic storytelling through composition.

A little love letter to New York. ❤️
Stylized, simplified, unapologetically bold.

A stylized white "NY" rendered in a flowing, handwritten script that forms the shape of a heart. The design sits centered on a bright blue background, combining visual minimalism with emotional impact.

Marvel's Taskmaster. Made in Procreate. Had the smudge tool set to 100% pressure and wondered why I struggled with the shadow render. Definitely better on the second pass...

Stylized illustration of Batman inspired by the Bruce Timm and Darwyn Cooke art styles. The image features Batman in his classic blue and gray suit with a bright yellow utility belt and emblematic cowl. He is depicted in a heroic pose, gazing off to the side against a bold, minimalist yellow background, with sharp, clean lines and vibrant, contrasting colors that emphasize a retro-modern aesthetic.

Zombie hand "Get Overit" promotional holographic stickers. Distributed at an 'Alive at Five' concert in 2024.
#art #artwork #digitalart #illustration #drawing #stickers
A bold, monochrome graphic featuring a stylized, clawed hand in a rock-and-roll gesture, with sharp, pointed nails. The hand forms the "devil horns" sign, with text reading "GET OVER IT" in a heavy, jagged font across the fingers and wrist. Below, the base of the design has jagged edges resembling fangs or teeth, adding an aggressive, rebellious tone. The black-and-white contrast emphasizes the edgy, punk-inspired style, set against a solid black background. A close-up of two identical stickers placed on a gray laptop cover, featuring a stylized, clawed hand making a "devil horns" gesture. The stickers display the text "GET OVER IT" in bold, black letters across the fingers and wrist. Each sticker has a holographic effect, reflecting rainbow colors under the light, adding a vibrant, eye-catching touch to the edgy, punk-inspired design. The laptop’s Apple logo is visible in the center between the two stickers, and a wooden surface serves as the background.
