I haven't posted anything in a while, but I am working on things! Here's some new character art for my upcoming novel, which I should have a timeline for publication next year.

Here are the Bugatti Brothers, DeSade and Defile, enjoying some time on the beach. Art by David Paul Seymour.
Two identical twin brothers on the beach. One brother is in an orange floral shirt, and the other wears a green floral shirt. DeSade wears sunglasses, holds a beer bottle, and has a sword and spear strapped to his back. Defile holds his arms open and smiles at his brother, and has a sword strapped to his back as well. All images and characters are copyright Chris Culbertson and Vistari Studios.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Yule, and simply Happy Holidays, whatever you may be celebrating!

This is Kiersten, a major character from my upcoming novel. She is ready for the holidays herself! 🎄🎁❤️✨
A beautiful woman with long, blonde hair and wings like an angel stands in a seductive pose. She holds a red robe up to her breasts, making it look almost like a ribbon. The robe barely covers her, and its belt hangs down strategically to block any actual frontal nudity - above or below her waist - in this spicy yet still "PG-13" rated image. She wears a pair of earrings, though only one is visible in the picture. It is a glossy red ball that dangles near her neck and jawline, and has a white pentagram on it. Her robe has a fluffy white ball centered in her cleavage. The background is red towards the bottom and fades to white near the top, with snowflake patterns behind her. The image and character of Kiersten are Copyright Vistari Studios and Chris Culbertson, All Rights Reserved. A website address is included in the watermark, www.vistari.io. The image is signed by the artist "Opal" in the lower right corner. This artist was commissioned by Chris Culbertson for the purposes of promoting Vistari.

Happy Lemmy's Birthday, to all who celebrate ♠️✨
A picture of Lemmy in honor of his birthday. He is wearing his famous hat and a black western shirt, and he is raising his middle finger to the camera as a greeting. Text superimposed over the picture reads, "On 24 Dec 1945 In Staffordshire England, a child was born. They swaddled him in black leather and lay him upon the bar. 3 wise men came bearing whiskey, marlboros, and a bass guitar. They named him Lemmy and he became a god. R.I.P. Lemmy Kilmister"

Alright, here's a quote from the first chapter of my WIP, "Vistari." I plan to finally have the first novel in this series published sometime next year.

Upon hearing DeSade agree to let her join his adventuring group, Laius is full of gratitude...

And sass.
Upcoming author Chris Culbertson shares a quote from the first chapter of his novel "Vistari," planned for publication next year. In the image, text is superimposed over an image showing a beautiful non-human woman named "Laius." She has black hair and slightly pointed ears, and is wearing lingerie on a balcony overlooking a city skyline. The text reads "...It's so thoughtful of you to say I can come too! That's more than you did for me last night." "Certainly," DeSade said as the rest of the group burst into laughter. "Wait, what?" Laius is full of gratitude, and sass.

This is a scene from the second chapter of my work-in-progress, Vistari. I wanted to go ahead and share a little bit of artwork here, and I'll share more as I get closer to publishing my first book. The artwork was created by "Opal," who has done several pieces for my story.
A daytime mountain scene with snow-capped peaks and a partially-cloudy sky. A white snow dragon flies above the mountains, attacking a small figure that stands near the top of a mountain with its icy breath. The figure defends itself with a magical shield of fire.

Hi!

Here's the cover (& bonus character art!) for my WIP, which I've been working on for a few years now. If all goes according to plan, it will FINALLY be published sometime next year!

It's a spicy fantasy/sci-fi series. I won't share it on Twitter anymore, but I'll share it here 😎🌟💯

Words to live by from Stephen Fry.

FYI - Some of the artwork that I will eventually get around to sharing will be spicy 🔥 Consider yourself advised! 😎

Some backstory on Vistari:

Vistari has existed in one form or another since 1992. In 1995, I opened the Vistari Lounge, which was a little hole-in-the-wall punk rock club in Azle, TX. This was our calendar for Oct. '95, with some awesome local DFW bands 😎🤘 "Star" was the club's mascot, even then
