The holidays are here!! It's pretty unusual for us to go on holiday a full three days before Christmas Eve, but it's still much-needed. Usually, we have school until the 22nd and I remember one year when we had to work up until the 23rd. (Which is...

Hubby and I were watching "The Eagle of the Ninth" with Channing Tatum and Jamie Bell last weekend, and it hit me how much Jamie Bell looked like Orym in that movie. I asked Hubby to hit the record button, which he did, but then he hit the delete ...

This took a while. But our heating is up and running again and I have my head halfway free for art!
And as of last episode, I feel very much vindicated that Orym is indeed in love with Dorian, and I hope we'll see the Blue Boy at the table a...

I've been iin love with the Spelljammer setting for over twenty years (since I first learned of it). It's D&D meets Treasure Planet. Does anyone here remember my art from ~2002 of two Dark Elves in 18th century uniforms? I need to dig so...

One of the fun pastimes in Critical Role fandom: redrawing screenshots of the players as their characters. Last episode had me check my blood pressure real quick (it was fine, strangely enough), but that was *so* stressful!

As brilliant as Inktober/Patreontober was, it's always good to leave that deadline-heavy time behind. My health is a mess, sadly, and November is one of the worst times at school, so some comfort zone art is very much in order.

Happy Hallowe'en, everybody, with Jess' fun prompt of "purrmpkin"! I can't believe I did it. 😅 And with new blind spots, too. Weirdly, drawing and painting (digitally) is still the easiest thing, among the three end bosses of reading, driving, ...
