Blayne, Mable, and I had a great time hosting creatives at our @theeastsidesketch.bsky.social booth at the Issaquah Culture Festival last night. Thank you to everyone who helped paint the mural @blaynefoxart.bsky.social created and played the Chaotic Draw Along game. We made awesome art!

I plunged into the grant proposal trenches after I got back from the most phenomenal anniversary trip to Leavenworth, where Joey re-proposed during our photoshoot celebrating 7 years together! How rich I am to have this kind of love! #anniversary #engagement #leavenworth #digitalsketch

New to alcohol markers and not loving them yet? You’re not alone. This medium has many hidden secrets, and Alcohol Markers 101 covers the basics, pitfalls, and what supplies pair well for mixed media artwork using the Ohuhu Honolulu set! Ages 16+. Sign up at f.mtr.cool/vxfdnswffo #ohuhu

I'm still not over this mindblowing exhibit. If you can make it while they're still in Seattle, you won't regret it. Especially if you're a big ole' nature/bug dork like we are. So lucky that my inner child gets to geek out alongside my fiancé! #christophermarley #exquisitecreatures #seattle #art

I had such a cool opportunity recently to draw an Indo-Pacific Tiger Shark and some of its special features. I'd love to get more projects that have me drawing scientific illustrations of animals! #illustration

Creating whimsical art isn't really the mood right now. Creating #protestart is the only way for me to fight the art block set on by being an empath in an era of tyranny. Most of this art I keep in my sketchbook, but it is my loudest voice. #standwithmn #abolishice #iceoutseattle #iceoutminnesota

I got carried away with the details on this piece, but by making a piece too detailed, I realized where I should set my limit. Sometimes less is more. #hyperrealism #stylized #digitalart #rainbowbridge #petloss #petcommission #commissions

I'm sorry I'm not louder. I'm sorry I haven't been before. I'm sorry I can't be as loud as I want to be. I'm sorry to the Good family, the Porter family, and to all the residents of this country who belong here, whether legal or not. I love you all, I'm tired. #IceOutForGood #musicfestivals2026

In 2025, we lost our strawberry pacman frog, Dollop, to a tumor. My fiancé researched keeping a new species to help the heart heal. Similar in grumpy cuteness to the rain frog, the #chubbyfrog aligned well with the previous care methods. Welcoming our new family member, McRibblet! #frogs #dilf #pet

So my fiance and I were GRIPPED by Heated Rivalry to the point we both were reduced to a blubbering mess by the finale. 11/10 top three shows of all time for me, thanks to the talent of the actors, emotional depth, and genuine chemistry. #heatedrivalry #shane #ilya #rozanov #hollander #sketchbook

Another year of making friends and trying new projects at the Eastside Sketch Society's art meetups. I'm so proud of the group we've created and welcome anyone to see what we're about if you're on the Eastside of Seattle! #localartgroup #drawingmeetup #thingstodo #seattle #eastside #issaquah

Art vs Artist 2025 - This year, I plunged back into the freelance trenches and it welcomed me back like an old friend. Through commissions, art fairs, resurfacing clients, and new opportunities on the horizon, 2025 marked a turning point in my career. Just look at that range! #artvartist #bestof9

I love all of the books I've illustrated, but this piece stands as my favorite book illustration to date. The warmth, the singing, and the smells of the kitchen can waft through the pages of the "Merry Christmas Mittens" by Sarah Janco. #christmas #christmaseve #holidays #family #kidlitart #merry

Have you ever wondered why some of the best mystery and crime writers hail from Minnesota? Between the long dark winters, frozen lakes and isolated patches of woods where a body may never be found, it's no wonder it inspires an eerie setting. #mysterywriters #mysterycrime #literature #illustrator

Blayne Fox Art @blaynefoxart.bsky.social · 16/12/2025

In Sarah Janco's holiday picture book, "The Merry Christmas Mittens", I loved drawing all the different families that the mittens found themselves in. This time is celebrated by so many different cultures and people, conventional or not. Order Sarah's book to see where the mittens end up! #christmas

It doesn't get much more hand-made than this. I have such a sweet partner to bear through packaging and stickering hundreds of coloring postcards with me, and I'm so happy to be able to offer them now to you! Come by the Holiday Shop for #handmadegifts

See me in downtown Issaquah this Sunday from 12 - 4 PM at @experience_tea for the Issaquah Holiday Market! For the first time, I'll be featuring my Foodie Felines series as 6" x 6" Mini Prints themed for every segment of the rainbow, so they'll brighten up anyone's home! #shoplocal #issaquah

To this day, this is my favorite first page in my mixed media sketchbook. If you didn't know, I cannot recommend Crescent RENDR sketchbooks enough; they can really take a beating from alcohol markers and wet media and still maintain shape. #AlcoholMarker #ohuhu #copic #illustrator #markers #longboy

Autumn always moves faster than I'd like, but I'm so grateful when the leaves turn. Back in my hyper-rendering era, this was a piece commissioned to be the epitome of autumn, but with a fantastical twist. #albinostag #autumnart #digitalpainting #digitalart #fallart

When working with Baker & Hill, I was tasked with studying and emulating the textures and shapes of Genndy Tartakovsky's backgrounds from Samurai Jack. This resulted in the background illustrations below that were later used for the animated kids series "Weird But True" by Nat Geo. #backgroundartist

Happy Halloween! Here’s one of my favorite spooky sketches with an even scarier lesson for digital artists: organize/save your work on multiple devices using the same system. A lost file is gone forever... this one survived only because of a screenshot! #halloween #digitalart #illustrator #kidlit

As many of you know, our pets are our family. Recently, we said goodbye to our first Pacman Frog, Dollop. Despite vet visits, medication, and multiple scans, we learned his symptoms were caused by a brain tumor that had revealed itself. We made the difficult choice to let him go peacefully. #petloss

The artwork that came out of this experience at Happy Time Studio was incredible, and there was so much joy in the room as I taught kids how to pet, hold, and draw a bearded dragon! We made a fantastical creature with an exquisite corpse game and drew fantasy dragons to wrap up the night!

I usually only take traditional commissions in person, but for October, I’m opening a few slots for one-of-a-kind originals just in time for the holidays! I’ll also be at my last event of the year, on Nov 30 in Issaquah, WA. See examples & pricing: f.mtr.cool/ebjijnvnpv

We saw the sketch last week, now check out the final concept piece as part of a Character Design Workshop with Devon Cady-Lee I took a few years back. While I'm not a fan of the stiff pose, I can appreciate the overall study.

I've minimally delved into animation by illustrating layered character puppets for Baker & Hill. Here's an example of how I was able to layer my files and break down the body into movable sections before sending it to the animator. #cartoonstyle #animation #astronaut #digitalart #illustration

I aim to make classes that little Blayne would go head-over-heels for, and this is exactly one of those classes. Learn from a REAL bearded dragon the different shapes, textures, and tools we can use to draw other reptiles or even fantasy ones! #animalart #drawinganimals #sketching #beardeddragon
