Illustration, in greens, ochres and yellowish neutrals -- view from above through the limbs of a tree, dark green leaves frame Kirsten, with short blonde hair, wearing a blue dress, crouched over the prophet in the middle of a road. He is laying flat on his black, in old torn up and patched pants, suspenders and a dirty grey tshirt. She is closing his eyes. A pool of blood spreads underneath his head. Around them, three knives and a shotgun radiate out from their figures. It's a sunny day.

Death of the prophet, one of seven interior illustrations for Folio Society's edition of STATION ELEVEN. This was such an interesting piece to draw -- the death of the prophet happens in the middle of the day, in summer. A sunny death scene is a delicate challenge. It goes on sale tomorrow!

i know common can't rap to save his life, but whoever decided he should act instead has far too many dissapointing-ass movies to answer for. if that man has any sauce at all, it's store brand & on clearance

brush and ink drawing of the x-man STORM with a Mohawk haircut

a couple of years back at a local comic show i coaxed my partner baloneyfeathers.bsky.social (AKA SOPH FRANZ) to draw punk Storm from the X-MeN. I just put the original art up on our store along with a few other things store.fareldal.com/product/stor...

if i didn't constantly wear carhartts with those big side leg pockets i can hide my phone in, i'd be about the clip. not having to worry about sitting on your phone or having it akwardly in your front pocket it key

his influence will never die for the people who actually MAKE culture. but yeah, it would be great if the normies gave his genius more credit. i remember watching him on sesame street (rerun, i'm not THAT old) but litterally everyone on earth should praise that man

I still mask indoors because we as a society have chosen not to implement indoor clean air standards despite absolutely having the technology and ability to do so.

We left what is a social burden on individuals, with terrible consequences.

Been working with EnergyTrust of Oregon on a multiyear project about bridges from different parts of the state. The siren song of landscape painting has started to allure me, and i’ve been enjoying the change of pace playing with gouache textures.

I hold firm to the idea that new people are learning old information for the first time all the time, and it’s normal not to know things. If you’re a journalist (lmao with a Substack, no less) pretending the NYT is fair and balanced about trans people, you’re being malicious. Nobody is that stupid.

being happy khamenei is dead is completely rational/understandable! dancing in the street and chanting "usa-usa-usa" and "we love you bibi - we love you trump" with people in maga hats and usa/israel combo zionist flags means you are a piece of shit!!!
