Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing youβre embarrassed to make, the thing that feels βtoo muchβ because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

Posting this old bookbinding project to remind myself to get back into bookbinding! I wish there were more opportunities for weird/unique things like this in illustration; maybe for a super-special-very-limited edition book? β¨

I really wish someone would publish special editions of Juliet Marillier's books. I mostly just want to own pretty versions of her books...... but also, I would die to illustrate them. π

Earlier this year I won a Hugo award but I think I forgot to actually post about it anywhere. So I've been stuck in this awkward cycle of "I should post about it"/"It's too late to post about it" π But fuck it! Celebrate your successes! I won a Hugo holy crap.

Sometimes I think about how if I were just 10 years older I'd have to make phone calls to discuss illustration assignments. Fax in sketches. Visit ADs in offices. Visit a library for reference images. Mail in originals. It's like a horror movie, I wouldn't be an illustrator.

Currently working on The Saturnine Oracle. This project began as a companion to the Blood Moon Tarot, but Iβve found it shifting and solidifying in its own unique ways. I aim to make this deck darker, weirder, and much more grounded in the realm of my imagination. more:
