Oh hi. It's my birthday 🙂 I have to say that diving into acrylic painting and book illustration over these last few years has been incredibly rewarding, and I enjoy learning more, painting more, and getting older really is quite great!
Cover illustration for "Fusion Fragment" showing a portrait of a woman facing upwards, as a mirror shatters around her. The mirror shards all show eyes of other women trapped within them. Two mask shards are also falling around her face, inspired by Japanese kabuki masks, representing her mixed heritage. Acrylic painting showing Sauron's defeat by Lúthien and Huan at Tol-in-GaurhothBook interior illustration for "Fangs for Nothing", showing the MC Winnie in a castle hallway. The scene takes inspiration from Gothic horror and Gothic romance movies, from the nightgown design to the candelabra. 
A black cat hides behind Winnie's leg, a vampire hides in a dark doorway, and the red candlelight reflects of a suit of armor and several empty painting frames. Acrylic character illustration for a fantasy book commission. The two characters are shown in a sparse, partially destroyed ice palace hall. Both characters have unnaturally pale skin and are clad in black.

Julien senses, even without seeing, that something around him has changed. Unease settles deep within his chest. He knows something is about to happen…  Illustration inspired by episode of Critical Role 4: The Snipping of Shears CR4E3. #criticalrole #juliendavinos #rpg #digitalpainting
In a high-fantasy medieval setting, a well-dressed man with fair skin and long, dark, curly hair hugs his own torso, feeling uneasy despite trying to project confidence. He can't see the ghosts passing and staring at him.

Age of Enlightenment A lecture on freedom and equality in the 1770s. Here I used sunlight and shadow, as well as animals, to convey additional layers of metaphor. Commissioned for a history textbook. Client: Noordhoff Uitgevers
Outdoor scene in the summer, in a country garden in the 18th century: Richly dressed, well off people are sitting around a speaker, having tea. They're in the sunlight. There's a small dog with them who's just been released from the leash. They look at the speaker with interest, open to his words.
Another group of 2 people is fully shaded by a tree, and their dog is on a leash. They seem very skeptical and unconvinced by what the speaker is talking about.
