Ghost Bride #PhantomsFriday ~painted on wood using acrylic and ink

Thanks @jackguignol.bsky.social for sharing this pic, so happy the original artwork made it safe to you!

Medieval Beastie🖤 ~Dealing with sinusitis/bronchitis combo right now, but drawing the textures and details seems to really relax my coughing. Feeling sick during summer feels extra yuck, but I can see the light at the end of the phlegm tunnel. #sketchbookart

For me the Summer Solstice means a recharge time before Fall. Gathering my thoughts and inspirations, and truth be told I much prefer the growing night and colder temps to come.

It was a long road to get here, but my debut novel is now available! If you like the idea of a "Gothic Fantasy" novel in which a depressed grave robber is on a mission inspired by Pre-Raphaelite art, well do I have the book for you. mybook.to/ornamentalwo...

Me dealing with the Hellscape weather and it’s only June🫠 #myartwork

It started with a drawing and ended in a cover design for “Ornamental Women” by @jackguignol.bsky.social now available to read! 💀🖤📚Thank you again for the opportunity to collaborate on this project!

Every couple of months I wake from a nightmare feeling electrical snaps all over my body. Aggressive tingles of fear and danger. Whatever darkscape I just woke from starts to quickly fade. All I can recall were these gray lumpy Boschian terrors popping from portals everywhere.

NY friends go check out Shape of Dreams, an exhibition of sculptures by Leonora Carrington at L’SPACE gallery. They also show her tarot cards, beautiful work!🖤

Such a nostalgia hit to find this Choose Your Own Adventure reprint paperback!

Good evening, do you like gothy grave robbers, metal as-fuck bards, and witches with extra fingers?

Sketch inspired by my recent read of “Caesaria” by Hanna Nordenhök. A gothic novel with beautifully written dread and unease. You know it’s going to have a depressing end, but you can’t stop reading.

A spooky weekend spent drawing graveyards, haunted bookshelves, and a Cat-Bat.

Read a horror novella and cheered for the monsters in the house because the characters were so unlikeable.

GUYS THIS IS VERY EXCITING! I have cover art for my novel from the unmatched @munichartstudio.bsky.social and I love it!

Heading into this weekend (month, year, decade)… #phantomfriday

A message from the Mothman: May the week ahead bring you some laughs and silliness. We all need more of that.

Slowly adding to my “Enchanted World” library. As a kid I was obsessed with the commercial for this series! I wished I had grown-up money to buy them and now I do🖤📚

Costumed sketch night at Society of illustrators with the fantastic @fitartmodel bringing the poses and props! So appreciative of the creative time to take a mental break from the insanity going on.

A Cosmic Egg inspired by Easter ~May it bring forth new beginnings, opportunities, growth, abundance, and protection.

Remember these? 🤔 LBB now has a section of "Choose Your Own Adventure Books!" The company has put out a whole new line adapted for the interests of today's young readers, but the classics, such as "The Mystery of Chimney Rock," are also still in print!

Just a reminder, you can purchase signed copies of my weird art books directly from me! unquietthings.com/buy-my-book/

Drifting into the realm of dreams.

Weekend mood ~Trying to disconnect from the madness out in the world

Drawing inspired by recent viewing of a glass bat sculpture and 70s groovy horror mags.

Born on this Day: Edward Gorey, a constant art inspiration to me! ~drawing inspired in his style

I think I survived Friday the 13th… how about you?

Drawing inspired by Medieval depictions of Hell. In Dante’s “Inferno” those committing violence against others were immersed in a boiling river of blood as punishment.

Heading into this week like…and Monday is already EXTRA.

Edward Gorey theme sketch night at Society of Illustrators with fabulous models!

Celebrating the iconic Dolly Parton at Society of Illustrators costume sketch night, the models were fabulous🖤

Creeping with claws out to get through the rest of this week. How is it only January?

Drawing from 2016, happy to say I’m still keeping it weird a decade later.

Study of the head of a bat, 1888 by Beatrix Potter, not only an English writer and illustrator, but also a natural scientist and conservationist #womensart

One of the Capricorn 2026 aspects that especially resonates with me is redefining strength, focusing on self-care and moving away from imposed duty. A reminder that’s it’s ok to say “no”. Cheers to all my caps out there🖤

Morning.

In case you missed it over the weekend, we're back with a new episode to tell you what's good

My protective eye for the year ahead, looking up and forward.🖤

Spent the first day of 2026 visiting the Museum of Nostalgia in Astoria, NY and it was a blast!

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! Out with the negative, toxic and yuck. May 2026 bring forth all positivity and creativity🖤

Wishing you all a very happy holidays!🎄💚

My latest column for @ruemorguemag.bsky.social is out now! Wherein I explore finishing Sarah Maria Griffin’s novel Eat The Ones You Love, narrated by a carnivorous orchid plotting to devour its beloved florist... and, of course, my immediate urge to acquire tiny potted predators of my own.

HATCH THE FROZEN FLESH EGG

Winter Solstice a time to reflect on what has passed while looking forward to what lies ahead. ~sketchbook drawing inspired by this idea
