Past paintings for Every Day Original (everydayoriginal.com/artist/Matth...) Usually I do a Pride-adjacent piece for June. My question is: Are there any animals folks are itching to see me paint? I default to Ungulates & Birds so I want to know if there are any fun critters I'm forgetting about.

Latest commission!

"I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend" Follow @wraithmarked.bsky.social for updates on my illustrated Frankenstein release 🫀

Serra Medusa #MerMay Don’t be fooled by this mermaid’s delicate appearance. Her translucent tentacles are reaching far, keeping predators and nosy scientists at arm’s length. Her touch can cause strong inflammations and death, earning her the name ‘Black Widow of the Deep’.

personal work is oxygen to the artist. it's non negotiable. like exercising or going on walks a few times a week is a basic necessity to humans. if you forgo the bare minimum for too long, you will crash & burn so pick up the pencil today, now even, and draw something just for you.

as a professional illustrator working for Magic, D&D, etc and handling tight deadlines on the daily: my advice is that you must spare time, at least a few hours a week, for personal work. and above all, your personal work should please you to create it

Dust Jacket Illustration - Butterfly Swords

Gorgóna Gorgóna This mermaid seems to have sprung directly from Greek mythology, living in perfect symbiosis with snakelike water creatures that have attached themselves to her head. Sharing prey and predators alike, they are an effective combination.

"Time Travellers", cover artwork for a project that got cancelled. The idea was to show protagonists that could easily travel through various eras and places, and look like they could potentially assimilate to any of them. Medium: Photoshop CS6 and Wacom Intuos 4, as always.

Riding the Sunset Eunice Lytle on Corn Puddin' and Stagleader T'hulavi on his Peakhart Doe, Maci. Both "equestrians" and outlanders in their souls, they take great joy in rides in the outskirts and wilderness of the Savage Frontier. #artsky #ocsky #ttrpg-ocs #digitalart #illustration

Had the May art bug again, seeing my #Mermay pics from a couple years ago made me want to create more. Can't go wrong with a classic red head mermaid! Having some fun choosing my colours with the physical color cube palettes from @sarahrenaeclark.bsky.social too. #fantasyart #traditionalart

And evergreen advice for any kind of alarming email/phone call. Something I have struggled to remember when I've been phished, for real.

a reminder that wholesale copying artistic photography for a painting is often still plagiarism, even though it’s two different mediums

Update #2: Quicksilver, a detector for AI-generated music. Most folks today are not aware that AI-generated music (entire songs generated by AI models) are growing rapidly. Today, there are more AI-generated songs than human-created songs arriving each week on platforms like Spotify.

If you are dead stuck with something and can't get better despite trying it's likely not you being "talentless", but the method of studying not working for you. I've told this story before, but when I was in the art college I was considered borderline hopeless when--

Good morning. If you are intimidated about starting that project you want to do because you don't think you're "ready" yet, remember:
