ppl who still commission their favourite artists even in this era where everyone is broke and genAI is being pushed on us at every opportunity—you are appreciated more than words can express!!!
Really looking forward to hopefully adapting my dark troll Mih'dia into a Haranir!! Art by @saltmatey.bsky.social
Concept designs for a Grim Reaper and his scythe. His skull is decorated similarly to a Mexican candy skull with markings such as crosses, hearts and the Roman numeral XIII. He is making multiple expressions most of anger or screaming. His head is surrounded by flames and his hands are wrapped in chains.
Doodles of my Cowgirl OC Issy and her living gun Merrie Symphony. Issy is posed in different ways wielding her numerous guns while Symphony is similar expressive.
Concept sketches of Phylum, an antagonist for a friends series about anthropomorphized flora and fauna creatures. She is meant to be the ultimate Apex predator, taking inspiration from monsters such as the Xenomorph from the Alien franchise and Wildmutt from Ben 10. She is often snarling or drooling, covered in a similar secretion on her skin and has a long bladed prehensile tail as well as retractable horns obscured in her hair.
And some OC concept design stuff for good measure 😏.
Last picture are two characters me and @saltmatey.bsky.social had as teenagers that we paired up together. Now we’re old…so so so old…
I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.
Hi guys, my senior dog has been loosing his hind legs mobility and it got worse, i need to take him to the vet asap, i'm opening 2 comm slots! 🙏
Oooooh you want one
Artists feel pressured to make new art too quickly at the moment. Normalise artists fucking disappearing for months. Just walk off into the woods for a year and come back with a single sketch. It’s good for you
I drew Snoopy from memory… again! This is my third year in a row drawing this guy. I think I’m going to make it an annual tradition.
You dare mistake me, a majestic tiger, for a mere cat?
Something’s wrong with your sight, I’ll tell you that!
Let me lick those glasses of yours clean!
Quoth a tiger the size of a bean.
She’s so cool #BloodRayne #BloodRayne2
I think about coughing up my sparse money to youtube to avoid ads but who knows, with the rate of things — youtube premium will develop a youtube premium + because they’ll slip ads into regular premium lol
Absolutely criminal that some youtube ads are whole fuckin videos snuck into other videos and i have to get up and find the skip button when im trying to listen peacefully as I do my tasks
Two versions: Velavie posing as she comes out of the water, left version using shade magic to cast a shadow over her face to protect her from the sun. Right is without.
No swimming in the high sun for this elf.

Why Doom Scroll when you could Scroll Doom?

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.
Worried for my dog son’s health. Don’t think i will make it out sane if I lose him

Every single element of life is either more deadly, more expensive or more inconvenient (often all three) today than it’s been in decades & it’s purely because our robber baron overlords decided to dedicate the entirety of the US apparatus to doing barbaric & culturally suicidal white nationalism
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.

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.
I paint my nitemares.
