INCOMING 2026 SNEAKY PEAK! I’m super excited for next year and I already have a few projects in the can but these tight crops are about all I can show without giving them away. Any guesses on what the New Year holds? As always, speculation will be entertained but neither confirmed nor denied.

🔥🤣🤣🤣🔥 For those of you who’ve been around for a bit, this is probably an (ironically) hilarious post, since I don’t do content that isn’t much beyond what would be classified as PG13. That said, the gods of social media still often frown upon me.

Tigra is possibly my favorite Marvel character of all time, going back as far as Giant-Size Creatures #1 . This little pinup is based on a piece I did a few years back. I always wondered how it would look if I turned her into Tigra…and now I know. Rawrr! #tigra #tigrathewerewoman #pinup #marvel
