I drew this to submit to a themed art book a while ago but didn’t finish it in time for the deadline. For some reason found the motivation to ink it today.

Black and white high contrast ink drawing of a grinning pinup style woman, she is crouched looking over her shoulder wearing ballet boots, open crotch underwear, a butt plug tail and holding a riding crop

A recent sketch that I don’t hate yet, from the infinite pile of unfinished ideas. If I could just finish anything I’ve started I would be so prolific. Haha. #morbidanatomy #darkart #selfportrait

Messy pencil sketch of a female-presenting figure standing 3/4 to the viewer with arms held above the head. They have a short mullet haircut and are glancing sideways at the viewer with a somewhat sad expression. They have a large eyeball in the armpit and the torso is obscured with the suggestion of unrealistic internal organs and tendrils spilling out, reminiscent of an anatomical Venus figure

I enjoyed just discovering that Lunar New Year 2026 is #YearoftheHorse as I’ve been coincidentally drawing a bunch of horses the past couple of weeks. Well, Kelpies and Unicorns anyway as I can’t draw anything without adding an element of surreal or fantasy to it. I’m not a reality fan 🤷🏼‍♀️

Pencil drawing with very deep shadows and bold lines of a Kelpie, portrayed as a horse with a skull face running with mane and tail trailing behind to suggest wind and speed

An acrylic painting in greyish green tones with red background of 2 hands in a mudra pose. The wrists have red details reminiscent of exposed flesh and the rest of the hands have the suggestion of bones, hair and teratoma

Inspired by the recent Corpse Flower (Titan arum) bloom at my local botanical garden. It only blooms for a short period every few years smells like rotting flesh, which attracts pollinators. I guess I’ve been thinking about death and decay a lot lately. #darkart #morbidanatomy #darksurrealism #art

Anatomical Venus or Abjection and the Corpse (acrylic gouache on paper mounted on birch panel) #abjection #monstrousfeminine #bodyhorror #disintegration #art

Acrylic-gouache painting on a cradled birch panel. The subject is a stylized woman back to viewer looking over shoulder, with an oversize butt and extra long arms with oversized hands. Her skin is grayish green and her right side is cut away to reveal inside reminiscent on anatomy but not anatomically correct. She has long red hair floating up to the left top corner of the image. In the top right corner is the suggestion on the internal anatomy of a breast

“Anatomical Venus” I’m attempting to share what I’m working on more frequently! I usually don’t like doing this (I hate 80% of my stuff when it’s finished). I’m liking this one *so far*. It’s based on a drawing from a few yrs ago #gouachepainting #workinprogress #artprocess #morbidanatomy #darkart

Pencil sketch on aged yellow paper of female figure sat holding knees to chest with face half hidden behind the knees. The toes of the feet are morphing into roots or branches and spreading across the bottom of the page. There is the suggestion of a unicorn-like horn protruding from the forehead

“Metamorphosis” (2019). One from the archives I just dropped off for Superchief Gallery LA Hidden Gems group show opening May 17th. Maybe see some of you there? :)

Ulorin Vex @ulorinvex.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

It’s been a rather long time since I drew anything in this vein. Guess what show I’ve been watching lately haha. It was really fun doing something purely illustrative fantasy.

Fantasy art pencil sketch of a winged woman on her knees holding a large sword by the hilt with the blade piercing the head of a creature laying on the ground in front of her. The creature looks like an orc that has been infected by cordyceps from the video game The Last of Us

Very cool recent shoot with @jamiemahonphoto.bsky.social The catsuit is by Jane Doe and horns by Bubbles&Frown 🖤

Caucasian model with slim curvy figure wearing a very shiny transparent fully covered latex catsuit. There is black latex appliqué covering forearms, legs up to the thigh, crotch and breasts and it has pointed shoulders. She is also wearing a black latex hood with open face, gothic makeup and a headdress that is reminiscent of Maleficent.

The image is shot against a background with a dark violet gradient that is lighter at the bottom and there are magenta highlights

I gained a few followers from the hardcover challenge (hi!) so thought I’d make a profile for my modeling work. My vextraterrestrial handle was taken so in an attempt to be very confusing (and mess up my searchability) I’ve used a nearly identical handle to this one instead! :p

Ulorin Vex @ulorinvex.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

Judging the February @hardcoverart.bsky.social #hardcoverchallenge It’s really hard! I love a bunch of them for totally different reasons. Thanks everyone who took part. It’s always really cool to see how artists interpret my model photos

Ulorin Vex @ulorinvex.bsky.social · 09/03/2025

And now for something completely different! These are some sketches from 2019-2021. I have this tendency to start a series, get really into it and if it’s unexpectedly popular (as these were on IG) I stop making them because I have this dumb thing against making repetitive things to be popular.

Red pencil sketch outline of 7 pairs of nude legs spread wide and stacked on top of each other, unintentionally reminiscent of 7 chakras or stages of the moon. One of the pairs has a subtle vagina dentata and one an eyeball peeking out.

Red pencil sketch outline of nude lower torsos, one female and one male. They are joined together at the waist as one. The alchemical Rebis or Great Hermaprodite, which represents a union or balance of opposing forces. An attempt to reconcile my gender fluidity.

It’s hard to make new art atm. I wanted to share these little watercolor sketches I did a few years ago. I know it’s probably better to stick to one recognizable style as an artist but I just enjoy experimenting too much and have so many vastly different ideas. Also trans rights are human rights ❤️

Stylised watercolor sketch of a slender nude trans woman with long hair flowing in the air. Head looking gracefully and confidently upwards and turned away slightly, one arm above her head. Her body is a mixture of mauve and deep blue colors with dark rose pink hair. Painted on white buff paper. Witchy goddess vibes.

Stylised watercolor sketch of a medium curvy nude woman with full natural breasts. Standing straight with head turned away. Hair flowing in the air. Her body is a mixture of green and violet colors with deep violet hair. Painted on grey-green paper. Green forest goddess vibes.

I knew this was coming.. still couldn’t manage to read all of it. Thanks to Lila Shapiro for doing so much research and to all the women involved for sharing their experiences. And the women who didn’t feel able to come forward too, I hope seeing this out in the open provides some catharsis

Took a little break for the holidays, both social media and work so no new art updates atm. However! Look at these sweet treasures I got from the recent Oddities Expo in LA! Vintage portable embalming kit and a Spotted Hyena (I think) skull!

Photo of a vintage traveling embalming kit used by morticians, comprising 7 large glass bottles and a selection of metal tools

Top down straight on view of an animal skulls presumed to be a hyena. It has a very large sagittal crest

"Blind Love" This was done for the cover of the October 1999 issue of Cthulhusex Magazine, and remains an distillation of everything I was into at the time. It found new life when it was featured on the Coilhouse blog in '07. It was my way of introducing Courtney as a character.

If you see this, post a unicorn you’ve painted/drawn 🤍 (I only have the one.. sort of! An older piece from 2018 that I’m still kinda fond of. Needs a redo!)

Illustration of an albino woman wearing pony boots and a unicorn head harness riding a flaming Red Bull. There is a small purple butterfly hovering below the bull’s face. The piece is referencing The Last Unicorn animated film

Just got back from a lovely weekend exploring Death Valley. I’ve been here many times now but this landscape still feels like another world. Back to posting artwork tomorrow!

Blonde woman in sports wear and hiking boots standing on a rock and looking off into the distance. The location is Titus Canyon in Death Valley national park

Two ravens perched on a sign above the Death Valley National Park gift shop. They’re looking off into the distance and the light is hitting them in a way that highlights the neck ruff feathers and eyes

Finally getting round to reading this, hoping for a bit of inspiration! Any other fans of the Morbid Anatomy Blog and Library here? It doesn’t look like they’re on BlueSky yet

Photo of the book The Anatomical Venus: Wax, God, Death and the Ecstatic by Joanna Ebenstein. The cover art features a close up of the face of a 19th century life-sized wax bust of a dissected woman

An older (2018) drawing based on model Nina Kate. A mix of graphite, charcoal and white ink. It’s more of a study really; it was very small. I’ve been revisiting older work that I was really pleased with at the time in an attempt to inspire myself out of burnout.

A stylized graphite and charcoal drawing on grey toned paper of a woman’s head. She has small demon-ish horns, long black hair with a pointed fringe and a septum piercing. Her hands are floating crossed in front of her face, they are drawn in outline only with white ink

WIP sketch Lady Sylvia Marsh/Medusa mashup. Just messing around… I’m having a bit of an “I hate my art” phase and wanting to try different styles to get out of a rut

Unfinished line drawing sketch of a stylized Medusa head. She has oversized fangs in the manner of Lady Sylvia from Lair of the White Worm film

Eek over 600 followers already. Hi! Here’s a very rough new piece I’ve been playing with. It’s more stylized than my usual drawings (still obsessed with Medusa as a subject though). I wanted to do something that could maybe work as a tattoo.

Stylized rough line drawing in pencil of the head of Medusa. She has extra long fangs as a nod to Lady Sylvia in The Lair of the White Worn film

Temple of Medusa. I think this is the best drawing I’ve made and it’s very meaningful to me

Greyscale pencil drawing of a powerful, statuesque nude (artistic) Medusa, front-facing with defiant facial expression. She has 4 arms reminiscent of a goddess, 1 is holding a sword and 1 is holding a helmet. The helmet is a tribute to the original Clash of the Titans film. The suggestion is that she has survived and defeated her attacker
