After seeing the latest trend of slop, instead of letting it get me down I tried to do something positive for once. I revisited a drawing I made a few years ago and made it in my style, inspired by Ghibli. I really enjoyed making this and think I’ll try do some more!

An illustration of a girl with dark hair, holding a map. She’s sitting on a cliff with a wolf companion. The wolf is larger than normal and is wearing a saddle with a sword strapped to its side. There is a lot of foliage and a tree behind the wolf. There are mountains and a lake in the distant background.

Wanted to do one last bit of Severance fanart after that awesome finale! Drawn with pencils with colour added digitally. #severance

A pencil drawing of characters from the Apple TV show Severance - in the foreground on each side there is a drawing of Gemma and Mark Scout looking at each other. This is overlaying another drawing of Mark S and Helly running through the Lumon building’s hallways. The image is red in the middle and bleeds into blue for the portraits on each side.

I didn’t get around to doing Inktober last year. Recently got a light pad and decided to finish one of the ideas I had for it! I added digital colour and shading on Procreate for the finished drawing. #inktober #drawing #isometric

A couple of self portrait studies I did over the weekend! First is mostly acrylics with some details added with Posca pens. The second is all Posca pens and a different style for me! Lost the likeness in the 2nd but had fun trying something a bit different. Going to tackle a bigger canvas soon!

Some FF style black mages made with Posca pens. They’re so fun to use!

I’ve been playing around with using 3D in my process - these are some drawings of items in the D&D campaign I’m in. I used Nomad Sculpt for 3D and Procreate for the drawings on my iPad.

Having fun figuring out #pixquare making characters from a D&D campaign with my friends! #pixelart

Pixel art of a group of D&D characters. From left to right - a female half elf monk, a male halfling ranger with his familiar, a red pseudo dragon. In the middle is a male tall half orc paladin, then a male halfling bard and finally a female elven rogue.

I finally deactivated my Twitter account and deleted the app. Feels great to leave that place behind. Here’s some of my art! #goodbyetwitter #artist
