'Hand of Stolen Glory' art I did for the Season of the Witch kickstarter! Had a lot of fun trying some new techniques in Procreate here. 😄 Be sure to check out the project if you like spooky DnD things, the higher reward tiers are going fast!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/rob...

Illustration of a disembodied hand missing its ring finger, which has been replaced with an ornate, prosthetic-like piece of jewellery. Occult tattoos sprawl across the back of the hand.

"The first joint of a witch’s ring finger is removed when they reach maturity, the middle joint follows should they be lucky enough to their thirtieth year, and the last joint joins its fellows if a witch makes it to fifty. Most registered witches don’t."

Bayor's Burden I'm so excited for the @soulframe.com Fall Update! #Soulframe #SoulframeFanart

Helmetless Bayor, with a sad/frustrated expression, looks at a broken sword. The sword is hanging upside down in front of him, and glows with a golden light. The meteor Osuraxi is faintly blue in the background. Bayor is framed by raven wings. The painting is done in a loose, tarot card style.

Hi, #portfolioday I like painting people and swirly magic. nikkidawes.com

Beau stands in front of Caleb in a library. Beau has her fists clinched, with one raised, ready to strike. Caleb is gathering dunamantic magic while clutching his book. They are both in their high level uniforms.

The Hex from Warframe dressed as fantasy table top characters. Aoi is a barbarian with a large metal arm and Bonewidow themed. Quincy is a ranger with a rifle and has dog companion. Lettie is a thorny rose-themed druid. Eleanor is a warlock weaving dangerous magic overhead. Arthur is a paladin in plate armor. Amir looms dangerously in the background.

A black woman with dark skin delicately holds a glowing feather quill pen made of magic. Magical words and scrolls swirl around her. She's has a natural afro and is seated in a wooden, upholstered wheelchair. She wears a teal robe with gold accents.

A group of three older witches having a garden party and drinking tea. One witch is making a vulgar gesture with a candle stick as the other two look on in amusement.

Baby's first sketch sculpt! Trying to learn a new thing and it's kind of exciting to not really know what I'm doing and just learn by getting in there and trying things. I hope improve it as I learn more and hopefully have a finished sculpt eventually. Program: Nomad Sculpt

Devil of Tau My submission for the TennoCon 2026 Community Art Showcase #warframe #tennocreate #warframefanart

Roathe from Warframe on colorless, burning rubble in the destruction of Tau. The piece is a reference to Alexandre Cabanel's "The Fallen Angel" that depicts Lucifer being cast out of heaven.

Here's the cover I did with Penguin Random House for Faith Hunter's novel Unpredictable Magic (available July 14)

A young woman with pale skin and chin-length red hair blowing in the wind holds a magical staff. Her left hand glows white with magic and she is covered from shoulders to feet in a billowing dark blue velvet cloak. The staff has a glowing blue crystal. The background is downtown Chattanooga, TN at sunset.

Well my P@tre0n peeps got their 24 hour head start, so if any of you want a pet portrait I have a limited number of slots available. These will be in oils similar to the piece below. This will help with Baku-Noodles biopsy procedure he needs ❤

My DM is a cruel master

Ayy, got to paint best girl Karlach for D&D's new Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide. :D Painting the coronation scene was such a fun challenge as well. AD: Emi Tanji

Hank, a blonde human clad in green leather and padded armour, kneels before a priest. He's wearing a crown, and have a blue embroidered cloak with fur collar trim. Behind him in the cathedral is some guards, and the rest of his party members. Rose petals are falling down in celebration of his coronation.

Karlach, a red skinned tiefling clad in leathers, is sitting on the ground with her hand clasping the hand of her sparring partner. He's a tanned human man, dressed in a short leather jacket, and purple shirt. Karlach's wood training sword lies down in the right corner. On the level above them, Shadowheart is dropping a few gold coins in into a smirking Astarion's hand, having lost the bet on the sparring match.

The skybox has me in a chokehold so I had to do a quick painting @soulframe.com #soulframe #soulframefanart

The Envoy (player character) in Soulframe standing on a patch of long grass. Their back is turned as they gaze toward the fortress in the sky as clouds billow around it. The sparrow lands on their outstretched hand.
