A monkey. Rather, a bunch of squishy bunkham that gives the illusion of a monkey. Oil on paper.

Dear #portfolioday we meet again! I'm Yorgos and I mostly work on book covers and art that looks like this! ⚔️ www.cotronis.com ⚔️

For this Portfolio Day's #Portfolioday, it's all about #pirates #skypirates #spacepirates and sexy #queerpirates Pirates. Always more pirates. I have come to the conclusion that at least %50 of what we romanticize about pirates is totally true and totally worth romanticizing.

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

I often find learning comes from getting out of my own way. Sometimes unlearning bad habits. I also think when you dive deep a craft becomes inextricable from who and how you are, so you end up sorting yourself out as much as the craft. Painted with a mouse. #digitalart #fantasyart #warrior #dnd

Cheers for all the #murderbot love, folks, and hello to the new followers! Unrelated, another study inspired by Mark Boedges that I put a spaceship in. #digitalart #scifiart #spaceship #spaceshipart #markboedges

More #murderbot art; still in that mood. Loving the show so far, and feeling optimistic for future seasons. This piece is from Network Effect, which would be...seasons 5 and 6? May we be so lucky. This and a few others are still available as prints through the weekend: www.tommyarnoldart.com/prints

"We have 45 seconds to get out of here before we both die." From Compulsory by Martha Wells Happy #murderbot day! Big fan of The Murderbot Diaries and can't wait to watch the show. A huge congrats to @marthawells.com and everyone who worked on the show. #scifiart #digitalart #murderbotdiaries

I have lots of feelings about Disney and Star Wars these days, but there is a lot of it I will always love. Watching #Andor was the most I have enjoyed Star Wars as an adult. Here is a tank trooper. #starwars #digitalart #sketch

Grim Oak Press has just released the front cover of their latest Grimoire Anthology to be published at WorldCon in Seattle this August. It features my new Empathetic Robot painting and appears on the program catalog as I am Artist Guest of Honor for the con. Data Mining 24" x 20" Oil on Panel 2025

There is an ant that has been hanging out on the mesh screen of window going on 8 hours now. I want to ask it, are you bored? What are you doing? Do you want to go home? Can you go home? Do you have a home to go back to? I'll probably never know... #ants #antz #illustation #digitalart

How about some art? Sketch that started as a Schmid study but then somehow ended up with a spaceship in it. #digitalart #sketch #scifiart #richardschmid #spaceshipart #illustration

Working with TJ always rules.

Hey Hey! I´m new here, have a look at what I do:

Cover image reveal for @jamieroe.bsky.social ‘s The King’s Bow! It was a delight to get to paint some furry non-human faces. Book drops June 20th. #fantasyart #fantasy #digitalart #author #book #bookart #animalart #anthro #fantasyillustration

What a tease! Keep your eyes on this space for a cover reveal of my debut epic animal fantasy, The King's Bow. #lovebook #lovebooks #readers #reading #readingbooks #readingcommunity #epicfantasy #fantasyauthor #fantasybook #coverreveal #bookcover #book #books #booktease #anthro #author #authors

It's now been over a month since Trump sent innocent man Andry Hernández to one of the world's worst prisons because of "Mom" and "Dad" tattoos. Like the others, he is being imprisoned with no contact with the outside world. Don't let him be forgotten.

Going down the greyscale sketch rabbit hole for a minute. Any McElroy fans out there? A year late on this one, but I'm sure he's still out there, hearing your wishes.... #taz #theadventurezone #mbmbam #mcelroys #fungalore #chillvibe #heheardyourwish #digitalart #coneptart #sketch

Hi #portfolioday! I'm Julie Dillon, and I'm a freelance artist working mostly on MtG cards and book covers. Here are a few personal paintings I've done in the past year. :)

Hello dear #portfolioday folks I’m still alive and at the tail end of my three year plus tarot project, Witches Thoth. The first two paintings are ones I finished early on. The other two are works that I’m still very proud of. www.artofhopedoe.com

It’s #portfolioday , baby. Sci-fi & fantasy illustration, publishing and games. Sketch Art. Digital and traditional! Sky pirates!? Worlds where, somehow, against all odd, we all make it. charlesutting.com #illustration

2022. An oldie but a goodie. Thank you to a dear pal for cutting his beard like a sky captain, which inspired the piece actually, as opposed to the other way around. During my "capuchin monkey" phase... #illustration #art #scifiart #digitalillustration #spacepirate

Another day, another study. #digitalpainting #portrait #sketch

Some close ups of this ‘ol thing. Look at all those marks ‘n stuff. #oilpainting #traditionalart #scifiart #robots #painting #art

“I’ll Put My Rock on Your Rock.” (2020?) A older one and in many ways feels very rough, but in other ways I still love and stand by. Done working with Chris Remmers, who isn’t on here but is a baller. #oilpainting #scifiart #solarpunk #sandbatterypunk #robots #painting #art #traditionalart

This study kills me every time

Throwin up some more older paintings from life, to get em on here. Almost three years ago now I think, but I still quite like this one. Done at the Georgetown Atelier here in Seattle. #oilpainting #figurepatining #study #allaprima #georgetownatelier #seattleart #gageacademy

I just really really can't wait for #Murderbot to hit Apple TV. I will randomly post this information until my needs for Media are met. (I painted this for the Subterranean Press special edition of The Murderbot Diaries - I love how @marthawells.com writes action)! #booksky

Sure, what fun! If you see this, post something RED. Unused cover from several years ago, slasher horror. #bookcoverart #art #illustration #bookillustration #red #horror #slasher

Another oil study from life, hanging with my folks at the Modern Color Atelier, including but not limited too @kimberlytrowbridge.bsky.social Booyah #oilpainting #allaprima #figurepainting #art #sketch #study #chairart

Every Gurney book I own has been well loved, since the original Dinotopia back before I could read the words. Just received my preordered copy of the new Artist Guide to Sketching. Its wonderful. Thanks @jamesgurneyart.bsky.social for the knowledge, wonder, and inspiration. #sketching #reclaimanalog

And let's rick it off with the cover for FIREREND by @emmakennedywrites.bsky.social In Emma's own words: 🔥 multi POV 🔥 heist with unlikely allies 🔥 queer & nonbinary characters 🔥 political intrigue 🔥 twists & turns 🔥 crystal-based magic #art #fantasyart #bookart #illustration #digitalart #noai
