We stood on the cusp of a hazy fairy tale, picking flowers in the Ochre Meadow as we tried to catch the whispers of the ghost stones. The presence of Summer was at our sides, but the cold of Winter was all around us
A graphite pencil drawing of a winged creature walking through a forest with ancient ruins. A unicorn person walks at their side, holding a basket of flowers while a mink person watches the two of them from atop a crumbling stone fountain. The fountain is shaped like a bull's head and water spurts from its throat.

Posting the silly boobie potion here because it's the only place I can post it. A little inspiration came from the 1828 miniature self portrait Sarah Goodridge painted of her breasts.

I sometimes feel afraid to share my moments of happiness. I don't want to take away from how grave the state of the world is. But I've had so many days where a single smile from a stranger made a huge difference for me, so maybe I should share happiness, in case my smile can help someone else too 💜

Every day I wake up with the Malo Mart song as my alarm and it never fails to scare the shit out of me for some reason. Anyway...here's a closeup of the face of Our Lady of Red Ravens from the last post.

I've been pleasantly surprised at how many people have felt the sense of nurturing in this piece. What about you? Do you find this piece unsettling or sweet or both? Album art for the band Shivera

When playing Donne Toi la Lune as the Huntsmink, you have the option to start hunts of your own, which could be useful for battles. But be mindful, for the Huntsmink is already an erratic character to control, and giving into the Hunt tends to be a setback to the player’s progress with him.

You feel ill at ease among the pines.  Something dreamlike and dreary makes your head swim with the shifting shadows as a low buzzing whispers beneath the wind. Then, a blinding light, artificial stars screaming from the ruins as they manifest the glinting maws of the Cosmic Static that hunts you.

'TRiCK' A one-off fake video game piece that I'd love to do more concept work for someday. Unlike Donne Toi la Lune, my main project, I'd actually love this to be a real game!

All things return to the earth and become something new. All things in nature function in a cycle. When I feel like I'm getting buried beneath blackened earth, moments of beautiful life always find a way to creep through, reminding me that something wonderful might still grow from the heaviness

Sit for a spell, be idle in your repose. The stillness is as much a part of your journey as the blood on your hands, as the ache in your bones, as the static in your mind

Mob Psycho 100 seriously undid me in the best way. Finished it two days ago and I'm still emotional and beyond inspired. The paint on glass techniques used in some of the animation blew my mind. I really needed this show in my life right now 💜

‘ Remember the days when you’d wait for me at my mountain? Before you forgot my teachings beneath your own ego Before the shadows grew beyond her light Before the darkness hid my heart and made you forget me? And now, the weight of a memory returns to you, and you’ll bear it indeed.’

Here we go friends! (This time with a link) If you've ever wanted to be a part of a tarot themed gallery show in a fantastic venue may I suggest you apply to ARCANA: Painting the Fates. It'll be here in CO in a fabulous gallery and welcome to traditional art of all types! tinyurl.com/5ct6ztx6
Ad for "ARCANA: Painting the Fates" that has that text left justified and a gold banner that says "An International Art show" over a black bar to the left and some of ARCANA overlaps a watercolor painting of a representation of 5 of pentacles with a hooded figure in a green robe with red hands and a wolf face backed by a golden sun and surrounded by stylized plants with gold berries

A white mink turning into smoke with his paw balanced on a rock that's growing an eerie corpse-like face.  In the distance is a forest with a great tree that's growing in an oddly architectural shape.

The look of more "amateur" art is some of the most precious to me. The beauty of seeing something so truly, and earnestly hand-made is overwhelmingly wonderful. If you're newer to art, you're perfect and I love what you're making

I only did ONE! One personal painting in all of 2024. The rest were tarot paintings. I’m so looking forward to going back into my creepy peaceful world again. 去年は、ただ一枚だけ私的な作品を描いていました これ以外のはタロットだけ 自分の平和っぽく不気味の世界に戻今年、るのは楽しみ🎶 陰陽 Onmyou Sumi and liquid acrylics

Life and death. A pair of yin Yang wolves are protecting a curled up baby. The baby is in the belly of a skeleton. The wolves, baby and skeleton are in a bed of marigolds.
