Act 1 of a graphic (in more than one way) translation of Seneca's Thyestes. Still very much a work in progress, but I'm having fun! #comicbooks #illustration #mythology #wip

A quick peek at my current project! Just thumbnailing at the moment, which means really truly ugly sketches. #wip #illustration

Slightly silly drawing inspired by Etruscan depictions of pirates turning into dolphins. I think of this as the logical sequel to Herodotus' account of Arion and the dolphin. #art #mixedmedia #gouache #dolphin

I was joking with @sentientnostrils.bsky.social about the Greek playwrights being somewhat like the major pop culture sensations of today, so I cooked up some posters!
