another card illustration i did for MonsterCon TCG www.monstercontcg.com #art #commission #BRart #tcg #illustration #fantasy

Full shot of a stylized, cartoonish cityscape.

The architecture is a mix of rounded, dome-like structures and more angular towers, all in shades of light and dark purples, blues, and pinks, with lighter accents of white and beige. Water features, rendered as cascading waterfalls and a central fountain, are prominent aspects. The fountain is a light, creamy off-white with blue elements and has a large, round basin with swirling water and elaborate, shell-like, teal-blue supports. A figure, possibly a wizard or sorcerer, dressed in a dark robe, is depicted near the fountain. Light effects suggest glowing or magical properties.

The ground is a muted pinkish-purple. The overall scene is a vibrant and detailed cartoon rendering, with noticeable gradients and a distinct style that leans slightly toward fantasy or magical realism. Birds in pale, muted colors are flying throughout. The structures and the entire scene have an almost surreal quality, evoking a fantastical setting.

A marker illustration of my Dragon Age Inquisition character, Inquisitor Berylin Lavellan, an elven woman with long black hair and purple face markings, striding forward with her staff and a green trail of magic coming from the anchor in her left palm. Her coat is swirling around her, red ribbons flaring out, and she looks at the viewer.

Layered consciousness of the invisible man. (Inspired by the 1933 movie.) - I can finally post the full version of my contribution to the “Print’s not dead” zine! Hope you’ll like it. #art #TheInvisibleMan

A black and white digital drawing of a naked man split in layers. We see his muscles, skeleton, nervous system and circulatory system all fitting within each other sandwiched between the front and back sides of his skin. In the background there’s a portrait of that man wearing a suit, except his face is transparent and only perceived thanks to a bandage loosely wrapped around it. To its right there are gloves, dark glasses and a fake nose referencing the disguise worn by the main character in the 1933 movie “The Invisible Man”. On the right side there’s an old syringe and a vial of some chemical formula.

'Dandelions,' was painted by the Danish artist Bertha Wegmann around 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth.

Wait till they hear how every famous painter always had models posing or just straight up painted on site. Mucha was super into photos and would put grids on prints to copy them. Rembrandt used camera obscura. There are no rules to art and anyone who tells you otherwise doesn’t want you to succeed.

Mucha’s final painting vs. photo reference he took with a grid laid over it for accuracy

It's been a full year for Zenon's character! 🎉🥳 In celebration i've decided to draw something more special for them (yeah now with a whole complex background no less!!) - afterall she's already been a steady source of inspiration for quite a while 🧡🧡🧡 #art #OCs #dnd

An orange tiefling (Zenon, they/she) is performing a tarot reading session in a tent. She is smiling mysteriously while holdin "the Sun" card in front of her right eye. In fron of her on the table stands a candle, a stack of cards and of gold coins. The tent looks festive and bright with a lot of colours, plants and tapestry.

The study has been published in Nature. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED. • www.nature.com/articles/s41...

SUMMARY
Health records of MORE THAN 280,000 individuals revealed that those who received the shingles vaccine were 20% LESS LIKELY to develop dementia over the next seven years than those who DID NOT receive the vaccine.

ABSTRACT
Neurotropic herpesviruses may be implicated in the development of dementia. Moreover, vaccines may have important off-target immunological effects. Here we aim to determine the effect of live-attenuated herpes zoster vaccination on the occurrence of dementia diagnoses.
To provide causal as opposed to correlational evidence, we take advantage of the fact that, in Wales, eligibility for the zoster vaccine was determined on the basis of an individual's exact date of birth. Those born before 2 September 1933 were ineligible and remained ineligible for life, whereas those born on or after 2 September 1933 were eligible for at least 1 year to receive the vaccine.
Using large-scale electronic health record data, we first show that the percentage of adults who received the vaccine increased from 0.01% among patients who were merely 1 week too old to be eligible, to 47.2% among those who were just 1 week younger. Apart from this large difference in the probability of ever receiving the zoster vaccine, individuals born just 1 week before 2 September 1933 are unlikely to differ systematically from those born 1 week later.
Using these comparison groups in a regression discontinuity design, we show that receiving the zoster vaccine reduced the probability of a new dementia diagnosis over a follow-up period of 7 years by 3.5
percentage points (95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.6-
7.1, P=0.019), corresponding to a 20.0% (95% Cl =6.5-
33.4) relative reduction. This protective effect was stronger among women than men.

We successfully confirm our findings in a different population (England and Wales's combined population), with a different type of data (death certificates) and using an outcome (deaths with dementia as primary cause) that is closely related to dementia, but less reliant on a timely diagnosis of dementia by the healthcare system.
Through the use of a unique natural experiment, this study provides evidence of a dementia-preventing or dementia-delaying effect from zoster vaccination that is less vulnerable to confounding and bias than the existing associational evidence.
This study was funded by grants to P.G. by The Phil & Penny Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience at the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute, Stanford University (KPI-003), the National Institute on Aging (R01AG084535), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (DP2AI171011) and Chan Zuckerberg Biohub-San Francisco.

The Ghost

A hooded character with a face only defined by white slits for eyes sits on some rocks. the inside of the hood glows with a golden sheen with the exterior of the hoodie and pants being a darker cold blue. blue vapor and smoke waft around the figure who is encircles by gold lines. Two white glowing swords skewer the figure in the back and the stomach is severed with a single line. There is a ghostly crown above the figure's head.
