Not that I was upset about that or cared about it at all.

Mermaid Julian for MerMay. With compliments to my friend @solelle.bsky.social, who recently mermaided by babies the Bells Hells!

Vanitas. A vanitas is a specific type of memento mori painting.  Memento mori says you will die. Vanitas says and everything you did before that meant nothing. #deathstranding

WIP. Been a few since I set up a physical maquette to help with composition and lighting/material ref. Ghosts of the Dutch masters guide me ✨ Been thinking while working through this that the day I let AI "make art" for me is the day you can take me out to pasture. The journey is the entire point.

Maybe he’s born with it, maybe it’s that *checks notes* your father’s dead on the ground and you’ll never have the opportunity for him to know you as anything other than a drunken reprobate.

Welcome home, Darling 😍🧛🍷🩸 Cover for the upcoming novel by @tkingfisher.com and I just can't wait to get my grabby hands on it as well. And the audiobook read by Neil Newbon!! Fan dreams come true ❤️ #bg3 #BaldursGate #Astarion

I’ve been doing some Caravaggio studies and a despondent (and probably disassociating) Sir Julien Davinos felt like good practice <3 #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanart #JulienDavinos

This was going to be even more annoying than I had anticipated, and I had anticipated a pretty high level of annoyance, maybe as high as 85 percent. Now I was looking at 90 percent, possibly 95 percent.

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Hi #PortfolioDay (again)! I'm Lyn, a freelance illustrator who loves painting shiny things on pensive and stylishly dressed characters 💎 I'd love to work on TTRPGs and especially with Darrington Press one day! 💼 myportfolio.iamagtools.com/u/lynaiss 💌 Lynaiss(at)outlook(dot)com #fantasyart #ttrpg

You remember that day on the Beach? My guiding light betrayed me. #DeathStranding #DeathStranding2 #HiggsMonaghan

Here's the cover illustration of Astarion by @tkingfisher.com , a Baldur's Gate 3 novel, that I had the immense pleasure of painting for Penguin Random House and Wizards of the Coast! Cheers, darling! 🥂

One of the hardest + most important things to learn as a creative. Stop waiting to make your “opus” — keep going, get better

Keep on keeping on. More brutalist concrete and desolate landscape studies. Been pushing myself to refine my own sketch to final processes, and fallen back in love with some of my core texture brushes. #deathstranding

Same as it ever was. #deathstranding #deathstrsnding2 #deathstrandingfanart

it do be like this sometimes

Ain't no turning gazer for you, Sam. #DeathStranding #DeathStranding2 #HiggsMonaghan

First post here! 🌿✨

May I interest you in a WIP of Higgs in these trying times? #higgs #deathstranding #deathstranding2

what do you know, I’m just a bad believer 💘 #CriticalRoleCampaign4

Speed run of the Prince of the Undying raising some funky lil guys in Shadebarrow for the skeleton war. Made for @exandriaartists.bsky.social's Tourist's Guide to Tal'Dorei. One flesh, one end? 💀✨ #TGTT #CriticalRole #criticalrolefanart

It's my birthday! As a gift, can I ask you to share my art?🙏 I love drawing vibrant fantasy illustrations, especially in the field of TTRPGs. And speaking of TTRPGs, check out the post below for more fantasy goodness ⬇️✨

I could not be more excited to see where this takes us. And the world building? I’m gonna need to block out some time every week just to draw love letters to expand these locations, they own my whole heart 💜✨

We're here and we're queer all year long, but this month we're extra fabulous about it. 🌈✨

Horizons 3 features an interview with legendary DM, improviser, & philosophy major Brennan Lee Mulligan! We sat down with Brennan to talk about creating memorable antagonists, villains, and systems of power. Subscribers can read the interview on our website or on Patreon.

Did I ever share this here? Painted this a few years ago after reading all The Locked Tomb books in under two weeks because truly, they are that good. Pulpy covers my beloved 💜✨💀

And last but certainly not least, a cover for "The Twilight Mirror," Book one of the Evon Hytroga Chronicles. By Evon Hytroga, about Evon Hytroga... @exandriaartists.bsky.social #CriticalRoleFanart #CriticalRole #CriticalRolemance

Sometimes you just lean into making chaotic things that bring you joy and then an exceptionally talented friend is all hey so, collab? Creatives are the best. Also excuse me because I think I need a cold shower 👀💀

When this project first came up (heyyyy) I wrote a long list of options, but this was the first I painted and spent the most time on. The matron and her champion, in their resplendent 80's bodice ripping glory. @exandriaartists.bsky.social #CriticalRoleFanart #CriticalRole #CriticalRolemance

If you like fake book covers (and smut) as much as I do, then today is your day, friends! First up is "Break the World" by the prolific Mike Hunt. One of my #CriticalRolemance pieces for @exandriaartists.bsky.social #CriticalRoleFanart #CriticalRole

I need to add trees to my growing list of things to do studies on, because without fail whenever I start a piece full of confidence, I am immediately humbled realizing I have never seen a tree in my entire life.

While I attempt to be more active on this platform, thought y’all might like to know that when not painting, in the past year I have taken up *yarn* and I love anything with bright colors, geometry, and textures. I started with knitting but found crochet far easier, though hope to level up both.

I am both thrilled yet also want to face the challenge of the abandoned medical center. Friends I am *conflicted*

CW for body horror. Been working on some new art slowly but surely (with an ever growing list of things to paint) but in the interim, maybe I interest you in some weird lil guys?

It feels unreal that campaign 3 started three years ago. Jrusar will always have my heart 💜 #criticalrole

Can’t believe Bells Hells' adventures are coming to an end :( #criticalrole

What's sexier than wizards? A book trap resulting in imps stealing ya stuff. I had the absolute pleasure of illustrating James Introcaso's "Terrific Trappendix" for Horizons issue 2. Find this and other delightful ways to terrorize your players in our newest issue, available at WildmagePress.com!

As an illustrator, I idolize other artists who work in bold marks and often see mine as sloppy. Something I’ve looked to refine as I grow as an artist. With the advent of generative AI being a drain on resources and art theft, I have new perspective to love my human-made marks. Messy and all 💜

Yall the art and game design in this issue is something else. So proud of everyone who worked on it!

Horizons 2 is officially incredible, exceptional, and stunning!

Friends, the Midnight Court needs your help! Kyle, who is truly the best of us and one of my favorite people, lost his home in the LA wildfires. If you have the means to help him in the aftermath, it would mean the world <3 gofund.me/5fcd8ea6

CW: body horror. Somnovem Omega, Aether Crux. Rework of a piece from 2021 (left). I pushed my skills with the original but knew if I studied more flesh I could make it even better (read: worse) in time. Putting the Aeor in aeorta ✨ #AGERewind #criticalrole #criticalrolefanart

I have recently tried to remind myself how much hanging out with other creatives fills my cups. Visual artists, writers, musicians. Storytellers of all mediums. I’m so lucky to know so many of you. Picture semi related. I painted this a while ago and now have begun to make it flesh 💜✨
