commission for @sabattons.com 🖤

been pouring all my energy into work, deadlines, treatment, appointments, navigating nonsense. looking forward to seeing friends this weekend, basking in autumn. if new art is sparse this week, that's why. I am conserving energy for a damn good drawtober ; the esoteric, erotica, explicit.

The Innermost Castle, seat of the Princess. These halls house her scores of ladies in waiting, who serve her in isolation as she toils towards some mysterious end. Without windows, it is hard to tell whether the castle is simply hidden within a larger edifice, or buried deep beneath the earth.

as someone whose work has been repeatedly stolen, uploaded to pinterest, only to find their custom designs on other characters or apart of ai-generated "costume design" spreads, I really wish other artists would stop taking unsourced images from pinterest for "draw your oc in, like this" prompts ):

I'm not participating in a blackout because the point is moderation and others want me and those like me gone, and I would much rather continue to occupy the space I helped build rather than give everyone a chance to feel how much "better" it is without me. why wither when you can be a thorn.

I can draw anything. I can make characters as abstract or grounded as I please. I can put them in peril or paradise at the flick of a wrist and the wisp of a whim. I can tear them to shreds and they'll be fine because I decide they're fine. Because it's all fake. You are trying to chain daydreams

and really, I do not believe that everyone needs to "get weirder now," or that everyone needs to "make more nsfw," etc. what I do believe, however, is that everyone should look to those already making that work and sit in dialogue with them. support their work, substantiate their humanity.

all I draw is "sexual content involving risk of death and serious injury", so I am announcing that I will be evaporating on october fifteenth per that rules and regulations of this platform and the kind souls my mere existence seems to endanger.

it chafes me when platforms put forth these moderation guidelines that use the jargon of safety, inclusivity, and community before detailing all the kinds of art that ought be banned, shunned, persecuted. why is it that "community" always looks like absence, never curated abundance.

COMMISSIONS OPEN! a handful of sketch slots are open before I take october slots! dynamic poses, simplified details. $150 base price, +100 per additional character. all characters, pairings, properties welcome 🖤 reposts appreciated. much love to you all 🫀 ko-fi.com/c/8bd1345b20

Historically accurate rendition of an Oceanus Procellarum Mercenary. Such attire was everyday among high-ranking officers in the rebellious barons’ armies. After the Treaty of Phobos, many were forced to resort to banditry to sustain their life of excess. - Inspired by @armouredelf.bsky.social

"Pray for me, O my friends, a visitant Is knocking his dire summons at my door, The like of which, to scare me and to daunt, Has never, never come to me before..." - John Henry Newman (Picture: John Farleigh) #PhantomsFriday #poetry #poetrysky #ghost #gothic

my claims were denied (fighting them, don't worry, and hopeful, but the situation remains stressful and precarious) — that being said, I will be opening up a few more sketch slots as a sort of tide-over between this month and next. aiming to open them tomorrow evening!

I'm dragging a dead deer up a hill

this is the first year in my career that I've not had a single new commercial opportunity, much less the stable workflow of years past. my stolen costume and character designs turn up next to ai-generated "worldbuild" inspiration aggregates, illustrated book covers + editorial are elusive. screams.

Support the artists you like now because tomorrow you might not be able to find them.

commission slots for october thru december are open for both illustrations and comic pages! i have a limited number of openings for each this time so it's first come first serve 🦇 vgen.co/vampbyte

against the body’s better judgement I will be trying to power through the experimental sketch commissions today and tomorrow in order to open more. keep thine eyes peeled 👁️‍🗨️

queer artists drawing bellies, drawing broad shouldered women, happy trails, the curve of arm fat, wrinkles, scars, stubble, girl dick and t dick, cellulite. I see so many things that we're supposed to be ashamed of rendered lovingly, with intent, not just "all bodies are beautiful" but with desire

I love seeing queer artists draw bodies. Queer attraction and beauty has such range to it, and I love seeing body types and parts that we've been told are ugly drawn with such care. I love getting to see the body from so many different perspectives

Oh! my friends, but this is man-killing! Yet this is life.

woke up to my cards having been compromised and my accounts having been drained for near every cent to my name. may whoever is reveling on my dime at least have good taste. pray let it put good food or bespoke fashion on the table.

from one mouth to another and every other after

"but art should be accessible" it is, you can learn to draw, paint, collage, sculpt, make pixels. right now, starting today. art has never been more accessible monetarily nor physically than it is now in this age. access to artist labor and machine production is not an accessibility issue.
