health-related post I debated posting about this given my general lack of activity here, but I guess it helps me to voice my thoughts into ether when it is something significant in my life. I had a salpingectomy (sterilization) last thursday, which is something I've wanted for a very long time --
yesterday we drove out of the city to see the Perseid meteor shower. The light pollution makes it hard but we were able to see a few 'w' Two days prior we saw a REALLY bright one and it startled me lol. It felt bittersweet going back to the city but all the more reason I will cherish that evening
Look at this Nasty Little Rabbit! This bunny looks friendly and fun but it is actually the mastermind behind a coordinated attack on Beorn's carrots, known in history books as the battle of five rabbits. It was very nasty business. (for MtG: the Hobbit, AD: Colin Boyer.)
obsessed with Rebecca Black's newest song and music vid, it's so sultry 🖤 I'm happy for her success :3
Behold: my most complex illustration to date! This is the cover for Thistlemarsh by @mooreacorrrigan.bsky.social as part of its @illumicrate.bsky.social special edition, and it's full of tiny details, symbolism and references to the story! I'll add close-ups below because clearly it deserves it ^^
so grateful for friends that are amazing wordsmiths and writers, they wield the pen with great power 😭🖤 I am but a worm
I realize I forgot to post the interiors shot for the Pilgrim's Inn ! Then here it is. I've always loved rpg taverns, so I couldn't pass the occasion to make one ! #conceptart #gameart
thinking of the time I finger-painted a face because I misplaced my apple pencil and I was too cold to look for it -> final #art #commission #dndart
some pictures I took at a strawberry farm and I just want to take a moment to geek out at the lighting. Look at that gorgeous hot red/pink subsurface scattering (picture 1) and the lovely ambient sky light reflecting in the shadows. (feel free to use these photos as studies)
Hey artists!! Post some art you made from before Bluesky!!

I think we’re long past the “ai bad because of stealing” argument and fully in the “ai is also actively and tangibly destroying our planet why are you even trying to use it as an art tool at this point” stage
I swear I never learn my lesson. Taking a quick shitty phone selfie > spending 30+ minutes on pinterest/internet trying to find just the right hand pose reference EVERY. TIME.

I'm sorry Cool People of Bluesky (TM), I'm trying to be more active on social media and especially here but I've had a lot of work in the past few months and not enough bandwidth left for social media... but I have so much new art to share! As an apology here's a little sketch from 5 months ago ^^
rewatching eva with my bf because I'm actually excited for this !! Finally a collab I can get behind :D

I saw a disclaimer in an ebook the other day that said, 'This book is 100% human generated. I'd rather write a story that might have lumpy bits than generate a soulless, passionless, piece of crap." I'm thinking of adding something like that to my next book if I ever get around to writing it.
