Did a 2nd Vizzini & Westley for a collector last week on WhatNot. Plus a D'Orc card! Tonight, in honour of friend & pin-up artist, Stef Wilson's birthday, I'm doing a busty witch sketch: www.whatnot.com/user/jmdwrit... Tweaking the format & changing nights after this week! #traditionalart #ACEOs

Since it was posted on their socials, here's an in-progress shot (inks on board) of The Clockwork Wizard novel, Foundry of Souls. (1/2)... #humblebrag #WIP #traditionalart #TheClockworkWizard

So if you go to the Dead World TCG website ( deadworldtcg.com ) you can see four of my six cards for the upcoming After Life set (coming October 2026). They're also taking pre-orders on cases and boxes before the launch. ... (1/2) #CardGames #DeadWorldTCG #gaming #GameArtist

All set up for the Tarot Goddess Events' Witch Market in Harrington, DE. Today and tomorrow, 12 - 5pm. Dark Fantasy & Horror: novels, comics, art prints, OA, t-shirts, stickers & Creature Coffins™! #TheWitchMarket #TarotGoddessEvents

The art for my variant cover for Gobblers #4 regular and risqué. I've really enjoyed every one of the three covers I've done for Bad Kerry Studios. Cover work is great, when I can get it. If you want to own one or both covers: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gob... (through Sept 4) #GobblersComic

Tonight is the last week of Princess Bride warm ups on my WhatNot. Then a special show next week, and then I'm switching up my days and times going forward (testing out some new things). "Boo! BOOOO!" ...(1/2) #PrincessBride #BooLady #TheAlbino #TheAncientBooer

Chadhiyana's eyes have always been one of my favourite things to draw, in black and white, in colour, now and since early in her strange publication history (beginning in 2012). ...(1/2) #Chadhiyana #makingcomics #indiecomics #TheGirlwiththeFireRingedEyes #traditionalart

Yet another recent project is live! My variant cover(s) for Gobblers 4 (regular and risqué) are available now. Grab either or both: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gob... Campaign ends September 4. And if you manage to get in VERY soon, you'll get one of those mini mummy figures, too! #Gobblerscomic

Back into the fray this weekend as I join a few good friends at the Witch Market, this Saturday and Sunday in Harrington, DE! Second year in a row. #TheWitchMarket #TarotGoddessEvents

Scenes from Cape Cod a few weeks ago. Visiting friends. #CapeCod #DnD

Another set of Princess Bride warm ups & Full Metal Alchemist Commissions last week. Just two more Princess Bride weeks to go before a special show and then the Spooky Season warm ups commences. www.whatnot.com/user/jmdwrit... #MiracleMax #MiracleMaxValerie #FullMetalAlchemistWrath

This little guy was a fun character to create. The design took a few passes, but something about a skull-faced monkey sorcerer sounded awesome. For Chadhiyana: Curse of the Rakshasa coming soon from A Kid and a Comic #Chadhiyana #CurseoftheRakshasa #AKidandaComic #characterdesign

The Raven issue 5 has arrived, with a beautiful cover by Theodore Tso and my almost meditative recollections on The Creature from the Black Lagoon. It's been an honour to not only contribute to this publication, but also to be a co-editor on it. #TheRavenNewspaper #TheCreaturefromtheBlackLagoon

Rachel made a friend on our walk today. #cats #catfriends

Aside from meeting Warwick Davis, I sold another OA this weekend (seems to be happening more this year). We had some good food, saw some good friends, and I got to spread out a bit. Thanks to everyone who helped make this a great weekend. (And that Yesferatu t-shirt is available on my Etsy shop).

Rachel and I did a thing. I rarely want to meet a celebrity, but meeting Warwick Davis was a must. Wonderful man and enjoyable interaction before we took the photo. We're going to cherish this one. #WarwickDavis #WillowUfgood #WickedWWarrick #ProfessorFlitwick

Rachel's first Monster Mania & I got moved from the back corner! Now near Michelle Santiago & Buffalo Bill's House! Still in the Grand Ballroom! Coffins, art, books, comics & stickers of a horror & dark fantasy nature. #MonsterMania #MonsterMania67 #horrorcon #horrorart #horrorauthor

I hate to have to redraw these panels. I really liked how they were coming along. But *every now and again*, I forget how verbose I can be, even for comics. #amarting #makingcomics #Chadhiyana #comiclayouts #sketch

Finished the inks for the homage piece (after Noriyasu Togakushi's original Castlevania box art). Adapted for the upcoming Chadhiyana: Curse of the Rakshasa for A Kid and a Comic, inspired by Castlevania. Pen, brush & ink for this. A color version is coming soon. #amarting #traditionalart

An excerpt from Matt Spencer's Changing of the Guards: “This Empire’s still growing up, Shrira. Some diseases it’s better to catch when you’re young. Those enemies you’re talking about, we’re the ones who made them—... #ChangingoftheGuardsnovel #grimdarkfantasy #grimdarknovel #indiepublishing

Last Wednesday's WhatNot was my biggest commission night yet. 9 cards. Started with The Princess Bride and moved through Full Metal Alchemist, orhers's OCs, and even Pokémon. Every Wednesday at 7pm EST: www.whatnot.com/user/jmdwrit...

The one two punch of great shows every August. Monster Mania this weekend in Cherry Hill. All my old favourites are coming with me, plus a couple new items. Books, art, coffins, and comics. #MonsterMania2026 #darkartist #darkwriter #horrorartist #horrorwriter

Two of my favourite pieces just sold at Fan Expo Boston. Still plenty of others to choose from, but these were hard to let go of. I love Hellboy and Nosferatu. At least they went to a good home. #HellboyArt #NosferatuArt #originalartforsale #OAsale

Artist Alley table 1325 at Fan Expo Boston on the corner, near the wall between autographs and the alley. Here with my comics, books, art and stickers. Plus taking commissions. All weekend long! #FanExpo2026 #FanExpoBoston2026 #darkartist #darkwriter

It's not often I post a "packing up orders" pic (but I know it's a thing). I'm also *trying* to post more (mostly because I should and have to with how much busier I'm getting--no flex; just a fact). (More below...)

An excerpt from Matt Spencer's Changing of the Guards: Several times before they got there, Ketz started going limp or convulsing backwards. The wounded often got like that right before the last of them sputtered out. ... #ChangingoftheGuardsnovel #grimdarkfantasy #grimdarknovel #indiepublishing

Just some little things coming together, on top of all the other work I've been doing. #WIP #amarting #watercolors #catart #jackolanternart #HalloweenArt

Vizzini and the Dread Pirate Roberts. Warm up sketches of the Princess Bride going all month on my WhatNot, and nearly all of them will be connected cards, too! www.whatnot.com/user/jmdwrit... #WhatNotArtist #ThePrincessBrideArt #DreadPirateRoberts #Vizzini #Inconceivable!
