We've finally started playing the game Hum It (80s & 90s music edition) that we got last Christmas. We spent at least half an hour listening to Rod Stewart and Bryan Adams at one point just to clear the earworms out of my head! #retroart #art #procreate #digitalillustration #cassette #1980s #1990s

Isometric illustration of a cassette tape.

Throw back to a 365 day drawing challenge I did based on the Dictionary word of the day - Day 184 (Jul. 3, 2018) | Kafkaesque: marked by a senseless, disorienting, often menacing complexity #Drawing #DrawingChallenge #Illustration #Art #Dictionary #LineDrawing #LineWork #PenAndInk

Red paper background with a circle in the center made up of thin black horizontal lines. The lines get thicker in places to create an image of three hanged individuals.

I've got a headache, so here's a chaos nonsensical isometric illustration that feels like my brain right now #art #procreate #weirdart #fantasy

Isometric illustration of odd buildings and their exteriors. There are features like a waterfall coming out of an exterior building wall into a pond with a rubber duck floating in it. An interior room with a giant arrow on the wall to a hole in the floor with a ladder going down. A room with a spaceship waiting to launch and various wall mounted buttons and knobs. An outdoor pond with a large stone in the middle that has a sword stuck in it. There is a large tree covered in toilet paper.

I have aphantasia. On the rare occasion that I "see" something in my mind's eye, it's gone in seconds. This was the only time in my life that I could draw the idea fast enough to capture it. It's so simple, yet means so much to me. #art #illustration #drawing

Single line drawing of two men with long noses and the words Hoity Toity underneath.
