Queen Forfallen, for the D&D Forgotten Realms books. 18x24 Oil on Board The Queen of the Rusting affected Norlanders. This was a fun one to tackle, I had worked on the concept side of things for this book as well and it felt nice to come full circle on a finished interior. AD: Emi Tanji #dnd
Emeritus of Conflict - 18x24 Oil on Cradled Board This was a fun one for the Secrets of Strixhaven set, my tiniest brushes got a bit of a workout on all the costume details. AD: Ovidio Cartagena #mtg #mtgsos #strixhaven
Beyond the Quiet - watercolour and acryla gouache on Arches 300lb rough paper Painted for Magic: The Gathering's "Edge of Eternities"
Chorale of the Void, for MTG Edge of Eternities. When I saw the Monoists in the style guide I was hoping to get an assignment that tackled that faction, so I was stoked to get to do this one. 18"x24" Oil on Board AD: Taylor Ingvarsson #MTGEternities

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone and signing cards at MagicCon Vegas this Friday! I'll be bringing along a new assortment of artist proof originals and a new lineup of colors for my handmade leather dice bags.
Teval's Judgment, my one piece in Tarkir. This one was a fun challenge to get across the more abstract concept of preparing to be judged to receive either pain or a benefit. 14x18 Oil on Board AD: Forrest Schehl #MTGTarkir
Just got back from a very fun MagicCon Chicago where it was great to see everyone, chat with con goers, and sign cards all weekend. While I was away, @amico.bsky.social shared his fantastic article with the Waterhouse master study I made for him on an artist proof, I'm happy to finally show it off!

Also coming along to MagicCon this year, my newly designed leather dice bags that come with a handy life counter pocket and include a life counter. They have a walnut or padauk accent on the front with a brass inlay, and come in a variety of hand stitched leathers.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and signing cards at MagicCon Chicago! This time around I'm bringing a few pre painted proofs I'll have for sale at the booth, all done in inks and 24k gold leaf. #magiccon #magicconchicago
Marauding Mako, my one card for Aetherdrift. This was a goofy assignment, but I had fun with it. The brief asked for a female shark folk and that took some push and pull, I chose mako anatomy for the head shape before the card was named. 14x18 Oil on Board AD: Deborah Garcia #MTG #MTGAetherdrift
"Think Twice" for the Foundations set of Magic: the Gathering. 16x20 Oil and 24k Gold Leaf on Board AD: Dawn Murin #MTG #MTGFoundations #Art
