"Pig with Pilsner" was by far the most popular piece I had at Gen Con last weekend. The original sold pretty quick, and so did the prints! Anyone who missed out on getting a print, they're now available on my website. studiorayyan.com 🐷🍺 #art #beer

Gen Con is just around the corner, and I’m tied to my desk creating new work to show. Here’s a sneak peek of a watercolor I’m working on today. #art #watercolor #painting #faerie #fantasyart

Getting ready for #gencon Yikes I can’t believe it’s coming up so fast. 😱😬 Here are some painted proof cards I’ll be bringing. Hope to see you there. #mtg #mtgartistproofs #painting #art #magicartist

Scorba Roused. Another one dug out of my archives, from the Middle Earth card game by Iron Crown. Fun fact: Iron Crown’s business tanked during production of this game and they ghosted many artists on payment for their work. 😡 I can relate, Scorba. #dragon #middleearth #illustration #lotr #tolkein

Here’s another illustration I did for Iron Crown’s Middle Earth card game nearly 30 years ago (!!!) #meccg #middleearth #lordoftherings #lotr #art #watercolor #fromthearchives

"Song for the Sea Serpent" is my latest painting, created for the Dragonlore art show that opened at the Haven Gallery in Northport, NY this weekend. Show runs until July 6. See more from the exhibition here: havengallery.com/portfolio/dr... 🐉

🎉Happy birthday to the sensational Swedish illustrator, John Bauer, who was born on this day in 1882. Bauer's captivating watercolor imagery of elves, gnomes and trolls have inspired generations of artists such as Brian Froud, Charles Vess and, of course, me...

Continuing my Middle Earth illustration archive deep dive, here is the Orc Captain. From the Iron Crown card game. #meccg #middleearth #lordoftherings #gameart #watercolor #art #tolkien #illustration

“Fell Rider” Another illustration I did for Iron Crown’s Middle Earth card game nearly 30 years ago (!!!) Time flies, and so do ringwraiths. #meccg #middleearth #lordoftherings #lotr #art #dragon #watercolor #fromthearchives

Next up is Alatar, another of my Lord of the Rings game illustrations done for Iron Crown many many moons ago. #wizard #lordoftherings #tolkien #gameart #illustration #throwback #watercolor #art #fromthearchives
