Here’s my first painting of the year: location visdev for my personal gamedev project, The Wishing Stone! This is Dalterra, the main setting for the story. 🐉 My goal was to work out the design elements of the city, colors and location. I’ll use this as inspiration later for the game’s pixel #art.

Happy holidays from Wren, Candle, and me! ☺️🐉❄️ The kids made a snow dragon. Candle isn’t used to the cold weather. Brrr!!!

If you weren't able to make it out to LightBox Expo, Steward Ng Books was kind enough to stock some copies of my plein-air painting book Scenic Routes! They also ship internationally which I haven't been able to do in the past. All the books are signed!~ stuartngbooks.com/collections/...

Hi friends! I’m excited to share that for the past 1.5 years I’ve been working on visdev for Disney Lorcana! I’ve been helping the worldbuilding team design locations, narrative beats, characters, props, sfx, and more. The first set I helped with, Whispers in the Well, comes out later this year. 🐭❤️

Excited to share I'll be exhibiting at LightBox Expo this fall in Pasadena! Hope to see you there! :D #LBX2025 #LightBoxExpo

Worlds spectator ticket acquired, yippeeee!

The Art of Amphibia book came out today and it’s beautiful!!!! I feel very honored to have a few things included in the season 3 section. Love this show and froggy crew! 💚🐸

Shenron granted my wish!! The Art of #Amphibia is now in stores nationwide!! This book is a celebration - no, an EXPLOSION💥 of the talent on our show. There are so many people to thank for this miracle...but most of all I'm grateful to the crew, the fans, and @tokyopop.bsky.social!!!!🎉

Was in Michigan for the holidays and had to sketch more snowy trees. It's always pretty after a snowstorm! ❄️ #art

The Coastline Keeper 🌊 Been working on this painting for a long time, excited to finally share it! 😊 #art

GO BLUE 〽️

Changing Seasons 🌿🍁❄️ #art

Received an almost final printing of Art of #Amphibia and am sitting here vibrating with excitement just look at this stuff

Hi new followers!! I haven’t been posting much art lately because all my recent work is NDA or part of a secret personal project I’m not ready to announce yet (soon!!) In the meantime I hope you don’t mind a steady stream of older work I’ll be re-sharing! Thanks for being here! 💚

I'm still quite fond of these studies of clouds over the mountains in Burbank! #art

Flygon! Another entry to the TCG art contest that didn't make the cut. Hope I can try again next time! #pokemon #art

Can I post Pokemon on main here on Bluesky? 🤷‍♀️ I won a tournament today! Here’s my team and some celebratory shiny cardboard. I’m slowly collecting all the Scarlet/Violet characters.

One feature I use a lot on Twitter is Lists where I put a bunch of users into a feed to scroll through. I curate these for different categories. I know this is essentially the same as a Bluesky feed, but is there a way to make and quickly add users to a personal list/feed from within the app?

Some of my favorite background paint work from Hailey’s On It! Disney nuked it off D+ for some reason so now it’s a mythical show you’ll have to go questing for to find and watch, good luck! 😅

Dawn breaking on the road somewhere in New Mexico! #art

Hi Bluesky, have some Pokemon #art as a treat 😎 (This is basically all the non-NDA art I’ve done in the past 6 months so you haven’t missed much!)

I love when it rains in LA because you get some dramatic clouds over the mountains ⛰️ #art
