Today's Tip: Quantity The effort that it takes to do something once is nearly the same effort it takes to do it ten times. I find I have to start five projects just to finish one! Build a process and practice it, doing steps in bulk helps build consistency. #art #mtg #alter

The Cat Who Wore Sunglasses (1963) - I recently watched this fun whimsical movie and the visual motif is such a joy that I just can't help myself at this point ha ha ha Happy Friday! Ask yourself what is joy? Available commissions open #cat #mtg #magic #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters

Gemstone Caverns [[illegible]] - really happy with how it turned out but maybe next time I won't do white text on a silver background ha ha ha #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgproxy

A couple more fish for the pond - slowly working through my backlog and found these leftover from building my fish deck #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgproxy #fish

Hey! Listen! - Elvish Spirit Guide alter featuring Navi from Ocarina of Time #mtg #magic #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters #zelda

Mixed feelings on these, had a lot of fun but not thrilled with the results. Got done and remembered there's a whole other printing I could have referenced 🤦‍♂️ All good, it helps me rethink my process! Debating doing another with this commander or moving on #mtg #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters #edh #cedh

More cats, more sunglasses One of my favorite pieces of advice is to give yourself permission to "make bad art" because it gives you space to ask yourself why you care #art #acrylic #painting #cat

Recently watched this wild movie called The Cat Who Wore Sunglasses (1963) and it made an impact on me. It's about a cat wearing sunglasses and when you take them off everyone changes color to indicate their true nature. And it's a critique of authoritarianism. #art #acrylic #painting #cat

Roger Rodger Whiffed on color matching the background but otherwise happy with how they turned out #mtg #magic #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters #cedh

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

Wait wait wait If North Carolina hasn't had a budget in over a year How are the politicians getting paid? Seems to me they'd pass a budget in a fucking hurry if they missed a paycheck Fucking snakes and they're still on "Well we said May and were hoping for June but July seems unlikely" #hell

The Cat Who Wore Sunglasses One of those movies you hear about and then one day when you actually come across it you hit the play button so fast it breaks the sound barrier. Can confirm! It slaps. (And is also a critique of authoritarianism) #cat #sunglasses #mokol youtu.be/UslfIJlm_kE

May every step you take lead you away from suffering

One too many mental breakdowns and not enough medication, I think I'm done

Necropotence - slowly working towards a proxy cube #mtg #magic #alter #proxy

Birthing Pod Proxy - in retrospect I could have done a gold border but then I'd be retrospectin about this silver one instead #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgproxy

Damnation proxy based off that one explosion in Akira #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgalters

How is it Wednesday already Transmute Artifact Proxy - started out as a meme and I like the end result, only thing I wish I'd done differently would be a silver border rather than the gold #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgalters #art #acrylic

Today marks 11 years since I last had a cigarette. Addiction is a disease, not a moral failing. If you are struggling please know that you are not alone. Cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, social media, lottery tickets, it's all self medication. What's worse, the misery of comfort or the pain of change?

Ever write something crazy in your notes app late at night and then stare at it in the morning? Mine from last night just says "Unionize America"

Bleh I've got a bad case of the brain funk and my therapist canceled today wamp wamp

Finally got around to adding amber to my deck and decided to redo diamond and chrome too #mtg #proxy #mox

I can hear a truck idling at a frequency low enough that I can feel it and am going to lose my fucking mind here in a second I can triangulate where they are and they have just been sitting there idling for like a fucking hour it's not like gas is $4/gal or anything ffs #hell

Came across some sweet Rothko inspired lands on Reddit and got inspired to make these, since I'm an abstract landscape painter it just made sense #mtg #magic #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters
