Gesture studies. Win: Useful practice. Win: Can be fun. Win? A little frustrating at times (like anything, I suppose) & that's a growth opportunity for skill strengthening. Looking for guidance? New skills? A bit of fun? My class starts in September at The Atelier theatelier.org/study/classe...

It’s out! Digital illustration I painted in 2024 for Arkham Horror 2026 Core Set. @fantasyflightgames.bsky.social I designed the gesture, lighting, & color to help tell the image’s story. After my sketch was approved I hired a person to pose, and worked with a photorapher pal for reference photos.
