Shift Change (2025)

2025 limited color fantasy pet portrait of two cats on a chilly evening

in a cramped guard house, one long haired black and white cat lounges near a wood stove, his boots and scarf barely off him and his coat hanging by the door. Another, grey and white, pulls on his outer coat and steps towards the door. their shack is full of yarn, leaves, mud, books and notices.

this piece was commissioned as part of annual gift exchange between two buds. I had a bunch of different fanart to select from but around that time I was playing the 3ds ports as part of language study, and the games notions of fraternity (especially in a band/through music) were front of mind.

an illustration of an elf with their back facing the viewer, looking over their shoulder and posing with one arm held out to show off the fringe of their sleeve. There are lots of swirling fern tendrils around them. The colours in the piece are cool green and bright blue.

Disciplined Duelist - for Magic: The Gathering's Streets of New Capenna AD: Sarah Wassell The first painting I completed for Magic and still one of my favourites.

A man strides across a dimly lit hallway, brandishing magical gauntlets. He rolls up a sleeve in anticipation of a fight to come. The shapes of the composition are angular and art-deco-inspired.

Looking at ways to raise the cold hard cash needed to print this comic. I don't have anything against kickstarter, but I'd rather just rely on preorders to help fund the printing. Would you preorder this comic? It'd be about 68 pages, risograph printed, probably around $15.

not for nothing, but in 2020 i wrote about the ethical choices we make as commercial artists and tried to update Milton Glaser's classic "12 Steps To Design Hell" list. 6 years later, my list of hypotheticals already seems sorta quaint www.ssense.com/en-mx/editor...

I didnt take many pictures at the time, I didnt want the ability to look back at my home or neighborhood or regular running routes all misshapen and cracked, and I figured other people would mostly have it covered.

So happy I got to help the VGHF with this, and looking forward to helping more in the future! They have been an incredible research for our book project and also for my own general education on preservation and history, and also just plain fun (Sega Channel!!), and I'm glad I got to repay the favor.
