close-ups

Line practice of a reference photo. I got carried away with figuring out the background framing.

Process for my Haunted Manor illustration.

20-30 min sketch practice.

My first ever MTG alter for my dear friend @goberthicks.bsky.social 👁️👄👁

Finally releasing this as a print. The zine was a super success, but if you'd also like it on your wall, it's currently 30% off! (As well as everything else in my store!)

1 hour study from the Dark Shadows movie.

Another sketchbook spread. I attempted to use some wet media and the paper did not respond well. Live and learn.

Hades and Persephone are tinted, lightened, cleaned up, and printed out on 12x16 Sanders Waterford 140lb hot press paper. (note this method only works with a printer that uses pigment-based inks, as pigment based ink is fully waterproof. Dye based inks will unfortunately bleed when wet 😭).

From the End of Nature subset of my gallery work, a cautionary tale, “All good things come to an end...” 2/2 #art

20-30 min pose study that I had found on pinterest. I never save my quick study photo references which bit me in the butt later when I decided to use this sketch as a test for some traditional supplies.

Something a little spooky for Friday the 13th. I painted this last year during Edward Kinsella III Art of the Cover course. The piece was suppose to be a cover for Craven Manor by Darcy Coates.

60 minute portrait study, was testing out different brushes.

Process for "Japonisme" I worked differently than usual, building the illustration up from brown and green and adding additional subtle colours near the end.

Pencil Crayon Sketchbook spread. Practice + Play with studies and interesting colour choices for fun.

20 minute study sketch that I prettied up.

I bought some acryla gouache awhile back and decided to make something in my comfort zone. I like to start this way when trying a new media, keeping it simple by focusing on values and how the media mixes without worrying about colour mixing.

Happy to share that my illustration "Japonisme" has be selected to be included into Infected by Art Vol. 14. This was the first piece I worked on during my SmarterArt School mentorship with Sam Weber.
