I’m home after a fantastic couple of weeks in Japan. Based in Tokyo we had a couple of days out to see Mt.Fuji, and finished the trip at the TokyoMTG Super Magic Artist, where I did a demo painting. Many Thanks to the folks at TokyoMTG for inviting me, and for organising a great event.

Airecon was a great show. The best yet. I also keep myself busy sketching over the weekend. Here are some of the results.

First day at Airecon went well. Thanks to everyone that stopped by. Roll on the rest of the weekend.

I’m exhibiting at Airecon this coming weekend. I’ve just finished up some Dragons to take with me.

Enjoying a short break in Spain. First day wandering around Malaga. Great baroque Cathedral and castle spanning several centuries.

"Freeport" Ralph Horsley 30" x 20" Acrylic To see more of Ralph's work see the IX Arts website imaginativerealism.com/artists/ralp...

Enjoyed the Atkinson Grimshaw exhibition at Leeds Gallery. A couple of pieces I’d not seen before.

Very happy to announce that these two pieces have been jury selected into Infected By Art Vol.14, and that Freeport won Bronze Honours in the oil/acrylic/watercolour category.

D&D, MtG, and personal work. #portfolioday

Darkness Descends, another card for Lorwyn-Eclipsed. I have always liked the Kithkin. It was good to revisit them, even if under perilous circumstances. Oils on oil paper, 18"/46cm x 12.5"/32cm AD Sam Padilla Shared with permission ©WOTC

I'm excited that Lorwyn Eclipsed is finally being released and I can share my work on this set. These two land cards are the Lorwyn/Shadowmoor mirror of each other. Thanks to the AD Sarah Wassell for a very fun assignment. ©WOTC

I've been accepted into the GenCon 2026 artshow. Looking forward to being back after taking last year off. I'll certainly have prints and posters of Freeport with me!

Welcome back, artists! Quote post with an old piece that you still like!

When not busy sketching commissions I like to do my own on the backs on my artist proofs. Arrtx acrylic markers and Unipin Brushpen.

Artists on gallery! #CommandfestMainz

Very happy to have been jury selected back into the main show.

Arrived at Pyramide, Mainz, Germany, for Commandfest.

Artists, quote with your red art

ya tengo esta masterpiece de @ralphhorsley.bsky.social por fin enmarcada 💙💜❤️

I’ve been working on some Clown Token alters for Commandfest, Mainz, this coming weekend. The alters are all based off robots that feature in my Unfinity card art.

I’ve been enjoying sketching with the Arrtx acrylic paint markers. Trying out a new set.

I’ve signed a lot of Boseiju’s this weekend, and this is a full alter, channeling my Bosk Banneret.

It’s been another busy day at Eternal Weekend Lucca. Lots of signing and sketching. This was a fun one on the back of a Selfless Savior AP.

All set up in Lucca for Eternal Weekend. Doors about to open.

Just arrived in Florence on the way to Lucca. Spotted the Duomo during the landing.

I had a great time meeting all the Players at the Magic Regional Championships in Antwerp. Plus I got to hang out with all these great artists.

Keeping busy sketching at my table. @Magic regional championships - Antwerp

I’ve arrived in Antwerp for the Magic Regional Championship. The journey was car, plane, bus, train, taxi. I feel like I’ve collected a full travel set!

Freeport is now available as a poster print. ralphhorsley.etsy.com/listing/4407...

This is the last of my Hurkyl’s Tecalls artist proofs - so thought it deserved a full acrylic repaint.

Looking forward to visiting Antwerp this week.

Stepped outside my hotel into sunshine and a great view across the Mersey. Nice start to the last day of MtG Spotlight Liverpool.

Table sketches on the backs of artists proofs.

Saturday morning, and Spotlight Liverpool is in full flow.

All set up. The show has started, and cards have already been signed. Mtg Spotlight Series - Liverpool

Staying in Liverpool docks for the MtG Spotlight series event. It does look good at night.

IX Arts was fantastic. Great to be at a show solely dedicated to art. Now just repacking to head off to Liverpool to be with more great artists.

More Illuxcon art Here from @ralphhorsley.bsky.social

Yeah @ralphhorsley.bsky.social is a master

Artist Proof sketches. They’ll be coming to IX with me.

I was lucky enough to work on the DnD/Stranger Things collaboration - Welcome to the Hellfire Club. These are a few all featuring Drew. I have always had a love of inking, so it was great to flex those artistic muscles on these. ©2025 Wizards | STRANGER THINGS ™/© Netflix. Used with permission.
