If you live in Texas, whether you have moved recently or not, check your voter registration, and keep checking it. Check it weekly until you vote in the November election. Don’t let your vote be taken away due to “clerical error.”

started watching #xfiles 2 years ago today, so here's some paintings where I tried to pay homage to the show and experiment with style a little

digital painting of a dark room with a big round window with greenish blue light streaming through it. on either side of the window, there are human skeletons. against the window, there are dark silhouettes of Mulder and Scully, with Scully holding a flashlight

dark forest with jersey devil spreading its wings, lit by two flashlight beams

an illustration of Scully in the foreground, holding a gun, with bright red blood smeared on her face. Mulder is in the background with a bright red flashlight. there are green silhouettes of trees behind them

Mulder's apartment with soft orange light streaming through the blinds. his desk is cluttered with various books, landline phone, mobile phone, sunflower seeds, mugs, a can of pepsi, and pencils. there's also a lamp and a bulky computer. Scully is sitting in a chair with a file in her hand. Mulder is standing next to her. there's a fish tank in the corner of the room
