Hagfish study from a photograph. I love how they wrinkle.

There's some Alison Art in here! The little statue and bowl of mystery stew and noodles are mine.

In 2019 I made lil 16 page Roland zines. Roland, my fursona, is a witch and I read a lot of research journal articles to invent a new magical practice from scratch that would make sense for him, as a bearded vulture. A few people ended up thinking it was a real thing.

I made a funky little bird patch for a friend a while ago and received word today that it is finally going to be applied to the ass!

This suit looked like a little guy nervous to go to school on its first day so I drew it real quick

Study from a photo of a crab. The original photograph I worked from is by Tin Yam Chan, who (as I understand it) is an expert on deep sea crustaceans and has tons of great photos.

Some patches I made a while back are off to a new home in Wales.

My mom and I are very clumsy so broken dishes happen fairly often. We save the shards and periodically make mosaics out of them, especially if they were nice bowls or things we were attached to. Here's today's!

I need to stop trying to finish my drawings too far past this point

Doodling it.

Want to draw this scene so I'm doing doodles to see what I like the look of. My visual imagination sucks so I have to "think with my hands" (as @thorazos.bsky.social calls it) and I do tons of thumbs of ideas before I do anything big.

A linen shirt with some holes has been sent to me to fix and patch over with an elaborate patch. My first step, though, will be putting a patch of fabric behind the hole and stitching all over to stabilize it, so the hole absolutely cannot spread. I love to stabilize.

Just sharing this because I have determined that Darth Maul is the hardest character to draw from anything because the facial tattoos are basically expression camouflage. God damn.

A page I submitted a while back to a little library community anthology zine.

Diary check. I am once again playing with stickers. My boxes and folders of stuff I cut out of magazines are getting too full so I need to use them more.

This was the initial Walda sketch I made after I first had the dream a while back. I forgot the cute companion surgery robot had bloody hands in this one.

Just a cat and a juicebox gone fishin'

Hell yeah, I love the guy on the left, they look like they have so many good stories about adventures

Was going to make this into a sticker but I lost the painting when I moved! This was based on an actual leaf I found on the ground. You can see I was using the rest of the paper to test colors for other stuff.

I lost this painting. Cannot find the physical copy to scan in. Oh well.

Two studies from photographs, each approximately 10 minutes, before bed.

In Burns, OR, I recently stayed at a house where about a dozen California Quail (Callipepla californica) would swing by the house every day to check the yard for morsels fallen from a hanging birdfeeder. Took a shot at drawing a male in ink. #birds

(cont'd) “Do I know you?” he said, his voice even more mellifluous. “I do, don’t I?” (Here's the version that's just Christopher Carrion)

I drew a spooky scene from Abarat Chapter 16: The Universal Eye by Clive Barker “Now what is this?” he said, so, so softly. He narrowed his eyes, taking off his glove and putting his naked hand on one of the screens as if wishing he could reach into it and seize hold of the girl herself.

You're very lucky, you know. Angels almost never take human spouses. No one in living memory has attended a wedding such as this. Don't get cold feet now.

For decades after that horrible wedding, the occultists, esotericists, and other wizards present would say that the groom had been so very polite, that it had even attempted to impersonate a human for the sake of its bride

Watercolor painting for my mother of her cat, Hanna Mae, a contortionist

Stay in the loft. Vampires don't need permission to come into the barn. Stay in the loft.

Self indulgent stuff based on things I made up as a kid. I have a lot of fun when I can just say it's fine to break every rule of composition and design and go on vibes only

I love the way that things I make look as WIPs And I like to get to draw characters I made up when I was a kid

Elephant shrew who is a loveable step-dad. #furryart

Making some highly-tactile sew-on patches out of scraps of block printed fabric. Process pics to follow in replies.

Old art based on a dream I had long ago about people who are wardens of a castle full of monsters.

I have slowly been working on this picture of someone who lives or sleeps in a barn loft realizing there's been a vampire incursion. I own a few amateur handmade quilts and have been thinking of them as I come up with this one.

Eventually I wanna do a big art in top down perspective based on a dream I had in high school about the groundskeepers of an antient castle belonging to a bedridden vampire. I don't know if my notes can make sense to others.

Goblin Week 2023 approaches! Here are some old goblins I made for Goblin Week 2018. #GoblinWeek

Another True Detective reference with Roland, I made a discord sticker of him doing the "smoking drugs while checking phone meme" for when people post some crazy shit.

Rediscovered an old drawing of Roland with Chazz and Mef, just a redraw of a True Detective screenshot. Mef is sitting on Chazz' lap, it was the only way to get all three of them in the shot from TD.

I have still been working on high-texture sew-on patches. These are great for tactile people. The big one: $135USD; about 6inx6in The smaller ones: $45USD each; about 3inx3in Email: art dot alisonrobin at gmail dot com

Quick study from a photograph of an owl

This is the monster/one of the main characters from the big writing project I worked on as a kid. I redrew this guy for the first time in ages a few years ago, I'll always have a soft spot for middle school me's ideas.

Closeup of a doodle. One little conceit in Roland's design is that he has gums and teeth when I feel like it. It's best explained by his relationship to fucked up magic (he is both witch and witch doctor), but just as easily explained by the fact that toons can do just about anything when it's funny

An old drawing of Chazz and Mef, Roland's best friends.

Old drawings of my darling musk turtle, Sippy.

You know my horror-loving ass would have been tuning in every week. More info in the quoted thread.

I turned a scrap piece of badly-faded block-printed fabric into a patch for my pants by stitching over where I thought maybe the pattern used to be. From a distance it seems fairly coherent, but up close you can see the chaos.

Study of a photograph of a stoneware sculpture by Larry Nelson (who makes delightful ceramic teapots that look like they're made of metal pipes), but I got distracted and made some changes so I could focus a little bit longer

Old mostly-study from photo reference.

Vampire with sunscreen, human with agoraphobia.

Some Lancer RPG inspired sketches.
