Happy Thursday, folks! Here’s an automated soldier from M:tG’s distant past. I used Chris Rush’s original design as my starting point. You are missed, good sir Knight. #throwbackthursday #art #conceptart #automaton

I really appreciate the close-up of the peafowl, considering how well everything tightens up at full size.

This winter isn't ending. I really need some warm sunny spring.

Behold this stunner of a cover design by @teanwitch.bsky.social! It's so delicious I want to eat it.

It hurts to be alive sometimes. I get it. I know how that feels. There’s no rule in the manual for living which says you have to do everything by yourself, including things you couldn’t possibly know or manage on your own. We’re allowed to lean on each other when we need to. #mentalhealthmonday

Bless your head, Ursula le Guin. Your work not only helped me escape when I needed it most, it opened my mind to the world around me without my even realizing it at the time. That's stuck with me to this day. You're missed.

As the clan’s strongest grappler, and a fearsome warrior, Eshki took the mantle of leadership and the title of Dragonclaw. #MTGTarkir

I don’t think I ever shared this one here? Meant to go back for a better photo but that was like 4 months ago now. Finished when there was almost no daylight left. Had a spur of the moment sesh at the Dayton wall back in November. Quickie with some scraps

Hey all you Sweet Boos. Happy Thursday! I came across this thing I did for the Star Wars RPG, way back in the day. Only after the assn was complete did I think of drawing this thing scratching its ass on the leg of an Imperial Walker. Bummer. :/

Art therapy piece from 2017. When I drew this I was in a very, very dark place. Don’t listen to the inside voices, don’t listen to the voices coming at you from the outside. They’re wrong. Nothing but white noise. Remember you have allies. I’m one of them. Don’t jump. #mentalhealthmonday

In honor of my 666th watcher I give you a sneak peek of my work on the Mind Flayers for D&D. I was tasked with inventing what a Mind Flayer "city" might look like and boy howdy, did I have fun with that. Behold the Chamber of Orcus and the Pool of the Elders:

A while back I was painting dinosaur saints, and while the JP dilo is a travesty it DOES bear the Wi-Fi symbol well lol. So, St. Dilo of Wi-Fi lol. Debated on sharing this one but it’s worth a chuckle so whatever lol #dinosaur #jurassicpark #atheist #painting #noai #fantasyart
