Treating myself to some colors todayyy

A horned jousting helmet with some autumn leaves in the background and sun icons on three sides.

Something from the ol' comfort zone for the beginning of autumn

another study with the new procreate brushes that I’ve been chipping away at 🦉

Wisptober 2025 : Hidden

"It felt as if someone was Hiding behind the curtains of the old dusty classroom."

Beast oh Beast so burning bright,
In the forests of the night:
In what distant deeps or skies,
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?

A boy with spiky hair, pointless suspenders, and a shirt with more buttons than you ever need sits next to a young girl with long hair.

I love these kids

starting inking this soon

Was very lucky to do a cover for a reprint of GODS OF JADE AND SHADOW by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Arcadia Books 💚

A Lightning illustration I did depicting her whacky moogle costume for Lost in Cult’s magazine Lock On 006

Kai x Luka obsession

genAI can never do what artists do. Art is an expression of self, a machine replicates. Everything we do is unique and special because so much of us is in a drawing, performing, writing etc style

thank you!

#portfolioday hi! i usually do editorial but am looking to branch out and try new things

a heavypaint star wars fanart of luke skywalker and darth vader but i made both of them medieval knights. luke is on his knees in full armor with his face to us, leaning on his sword clutching the handle with his right hand in glove. there’s a green stone under his sword’s guard. he’s mostly hidden in shadow with a white spotlight falling onto half of his face and the upper part of the armor. the iris of the eye on the side of the face that’s hidden in shadow is red. there’s a crack on his breastplate, from his heart up towards his head. darth vader is just a red silhouette behind luke. his helmet is intact, but it’s fractured (it was also really easy to turn it into a medieval one). he’s standing in profile, hands in gloves on the handle of his sword with a red stone under the guard.

digital drawing of three characters from dishonored games. corvo attano is sitting in an armchair with his daughter emily kaldwin on his knees, both of them sleeping. emily’s dreams are certainly lighter than her father’s, as she is slightly smiling in her sleep. she’s holding samuel’s carved boat in her hands. corvo is definitely tired as heck, as he definitely always is. his head is lowered down and his left hand is almost touching the floor. there are emily’s drawings and an origami steamboat on the floor below them. there’s a coat with a big collar fading down on corvo’s shoulders, and a silhouette of the outsider standing behind the armchair, like a suspicious guardian angel he is.

a digital painting with three characters from kingdom come deliverance games standing one before the other: lady jitka, hans and henry. first comes lady jitka of kunstadt standing with her back to us. she is dressed in a dark reddish dress with white rim that slightly opens her shoulders, and a white waistband. she has black hair and warm skin and looks very delicate. next, standing face to face with her but looking sideways, is hand capon, her almost husband. he’s highest of the three of them, dressed is almost all white, with yellow hues. there’s somewhat lost look on his face. he holds jitka’s right hand in his left one up, but it doesn’t look like he’s doing it willingly. behind him, almost lost to the background and to the figures before him, stands henry. he’s holding his sword in his left hand, wearing a red glove. the blade of the sword stays between hans’ and jitka’s shoulders, not letting them come closer to each other. henry’s face is barely visible behind hans’ shoulder but he’s looking at jitka. not with hate, not with jealousy, more with acceptance and awareness. henry’s holding a wreath full of flowers and a red ribbon in his right hand. hans’ right one, instead of holding jitka’s, has found the wreath without having to look, and his and henry’s finger are touching. jitka knows. she’s looking down, trying to reach them with her fingers, but alas. that heart is already full. there are herbs’ silhouettes in the background. according to the list of plants with symbolism on wiki, here’s their meaning. astragalus for hans (your presence softens my pain), heliotrope for henry (emblem of faithfully devoted love), and rue for jitka (regret, sorrow, repentance, grace, clear vision , disdain).

a heavypaint drawing of two figures in red light on a dark background. a girl is floating in the water with her back to us. it looks like she ended up where she is by accident, since she’s dressed up casually and she’s got her school bag with her. the mermaid is swimming up before her, tail is long and patterned. she doesn’t seem to mind the girl being there.

Here's a thread of a couple traditional artists to check out.

Сигорский Василий Николаевич / Vasily Sigorsky (1902–1978)

A family of 3, outlined in green, hide behind a roaring bear, as large foreboding black shadows with nightsticks and helmets lurk behind it. A green star outstretched at their feet as they try to hide from view. Text at the bottom reads in call caps: "SHIELD YOUR NEIGHBORS"

SHIELD • YOUR • NEIGHBORS

Here in #LosAngeles, we protect our neighbors at all costs.

a painting of two siblings sitting in the middle of their room. it’s nighttime and they’ve built a pillow and chair fortress with a bedsheet as a roof. the room is dark, but there’s light and color inside their little space. they’re having fun.

something from april, 2022 (slightly revisited)

ミサミサ🖤 #DEATHNOTE #デスノート

a sketch with two monochrome figures on a dark background. a girl is floating in the water with her back to us. it looks like she ended up where she is by accident, since she’s dressed up casually and she’s got her school bag with her. the mermaid is swimming up before her, tail long and white.

the may is almost over and i’ve got no mermaids >:[ that’s bad behaviour, gotta do something about that 🎣
