Forgot to post here! For @wowxwowgallery.bsky.social's recent show 'Memories Become Dreams', I wrangled a large (for me!) mixed media piece that cause me such grief but I think it worked?? 'Cry Me a River of Dreams' wowxwow.com/shop/memorie... #DarkArt #PopSurrealism #OriginalArt #ContemporaryArt

Mixed media piece, of a submerged head in a sea of gold. Moth wings hover to either side, as well as a halo of stars. The eyes are also leaking gold. Based on a dream I had, of being swallowed by molten metal.

Thrilled to announce that one of my favorite pieces, “The Magus” was accepted and will be published in the Infected By Art 13th annual!

The Magus is a drawing by Brit Austin of a masc presenting person with long hair and beard, Hozier looking with a white and blue Luna looking moth over the eyes. He wears a crown of branches on his head. He is well dressed in a suit. The infinity symbol swirls above his head and roses trail down in the background. Based on the magician in Tarot.

The scene in “Gender Queer” that these people object to specifically is one about modeling good sexual consent, BTW. It is literally a young person telling another young person that something makes them uncomfortable and their partner listening to them.

watercolor painting: a green four-legged hairy monster, sort of ugly-dog like, with horns and big glowing yellow eyes. His overbite suggests great hunger for snacks.

Just realized I still have a bunch of art that I never actually shared. Shame on me! Here are my interior illustrations for the Wurmpalast project by German musician RiG. It's inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's Ligeia 🖤

Gothic illustration of a mysterious figure looking out an abbey window

Close up on hands opening a casket and brushing dirt off a mummified face. The teeth of teh corpse are gleaming white.

Illustration of an eye peeking through a hole in a curtain. The curtain's pattern is an arabesque consisting of bugs with ornamental legs and feelers. The symmetries are off, as if the bugs were moving.

Illustration of a huge worm breaking from the torso of a corpse while an audience of angels applauds. Yes, it's kinda weird.

Thank you so much 🖤. I'm Matt, a transmasc illustrator. I would love to work on more books, tarot, and ttrpg projects (I also have a secret bucket list desire to paint a mtg card). www.mspencerillustration.com mspencerillustration@gmail.com shop, Patreon etc. : linktr.ee/mspencerdraws

A watercolor painting depicting an anthropomorphic unicorn knight holding a bejewelled goblet. He is dipping the tip of his horn into the cup- appearing to transform what may be blood into pure blue water. He sits within a gilded frame. Behind him is a cracked and tilting chapel that sits on a cliff. Behind and below the gilded frame, is a buckthorn bush with green leaves and black berries. A black serpent slithers through the branches and lifts its head towards the goblet in the knight's hands.

A watercolor painting in olive green-golds, chartreuse, orange and grey. Mist swirls around a robed anthropomorphic owl in some kind of catacomb. Roots crawl down the wall above the entryway. The owl holds a gnarled staff in one hand and a glowing orb in the other. Stone niches behind her display candles and reliquaries. The panels flanking the central image show ornately decorated bones of a deer leg on the left, and on the right, a closeup of an elk skull wrapped in pearls with a semiprecious gem in the eye socket.

The Knight of Wands card for Wyrmwood's Corrupted Tarot. A watercolor painting in hot teal and dark reds. It depicts a dark knight in a horned helm and spiky armor mounted on a spectral steed riding on a sunken path through dead woods overtaken by leafless brambles. He brandishes a flaming torch in one hand and yanks back on the reigns of his rearing horse with the other hand. A wall of thorny vines blocks their path.

A mock cover for "Between Two Fires" by Christopher Buehlman. A watercolor painting of a knight in a hat, clutching his sword and bowing his head. Behind him is a stained glass window featuring hellish flames and an armored demon appearing to raise a mace against the knight. The window is broken, revealing moonlit landscape in the far background.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.
