Frog tries to spur Toad into cleaning his house, kinda in a passive-aggressive way if you ask me. Toad hides under the covers. From "Tomorrow" In *Days with Frog and Toad*
โToad,โ said Frog, โyour pants and jacket are lying on the floor.โ
โTomorrow,โ said Toad from under the covers.
The talk to your friends app and the witness the horrors app being the same app is not great for the mental health is it

this is kind of why I've recently lost the taste for (most) current horror film/tv. Getting beaten over the head with "the real monster is trauma" is stale and it just makes me want to go back and watch low budget 80's and 90's creature features to enjoy some freakish whimsy.

Dark painting in classical style, depicting a woman in a white dress with her back facing the viewer, wrapped in red fabric. The face of a man peaking through the darkness, near the woman's bleeding neck.
Book mockup of the first illustration.
The Dracula cover I worked on is finally revealed.
I am very stoked about this project, because doing a cover art for a classical book is a dream I didn't know I had, and also because they agreed to have the cover art minimalistic and elegant, and I AM SO HAPPY ABOUT IT.
OMG!!!
Calling on my ancestors for guidance but the only one who answers is a weird eutherian rodent-mammal from the early cretaceous period. "EAT BERRY SLEEP UNDER ROCK" it says. Pretty good advice
color sketch showing a fantasy romance scene. A tall satyr-like monster bends down to kiss a human woman. They're dressed in 19th century fashion and stand in the doorway of a warmly lit manor house.
Between the shadows.
Still chipping away at this piece, I'm at the exciting stage where I have to stop ignoring the background and actually draw it ๐ซ

I know The Black Cauldron isnโt everyoneโs fave, but I found it to be the most fascinating Disney flick for just how much quality went into a film that was so mid, and for just what they snipped out of the final product youtu.be/SzVOpGgyqJE?...
Jane Baer has died at 91. A titan, she worked on 'Sleeping Beauty,' co-founded Baer Animation, supervised 'Roger Rabbit,' and advocated for her fellow artists. Few careers trace the evolution of late-20th-century American animation as completely.

3 panel sketch comic featuring the Mandalorian and Grogu. Din Djarin sits at a table with Grogu, holding a tablet as Grogu draws on it. Final panel reveals Grogu's drawing is a big squiggle next to a little squiggle.
In honor of finally getting a 'Mandalorian and Grogu' trailer, here's one of my favorite Grogu comics from a few year back
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms just delivered the most terrifying, bone-crunching, horribly plausible depiction of medieval combat Iโve ever seen.
This series is pitch perfect. Writing, cast, direction, everything.

Sorry to get radical but I donโt think itโs my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I donโt like any part of it, so I wonโt. Iโm missing out? Good, thatโs what I want. Youโre worried about me missing out? Thatโs fuckin weird, man.
The thing no one tells you about pursuing art professionally is that no matter how good you get, you will look at other artists and go "wow, I wish I was good like they are..." every day of your whole life๐น
to love, that sticky thing that binds each dark drawing of mine.
