One friggin' person away from getting my virtual tophat from the Book Bazaar! Someone go and push me past that mark.

This is an excerpt from one of the short stories in the upcoming hardback book, Fractured Dreams. This is for an exclusive hardback copy of the first three books.

Digital illustration of five mermaids clustered around two pufferfish, one floating upside-down being cradled in one mermaid's hands, the other looking onwards with a silly expression on its face. Surrounding the mermaids are a plethora of sea creatures and flora-- manatees, manta rays, jellyfish, and fish.

Digital illustration in orange-red-purple sunset tones of a Mexican woman in a green taffeta dress reading a book while on a chaise lounge, holding a cigarette in one hand. A white man in a sweater is leaning over her shoulder, hand gently place on her arm.

A digital illustration with orange, green, teal hues of a knight in shining armor, dehelmeted, kneeling on a rug surrounded by candles. In the background people are dancing in a fancy garden party.

A digital illustration rendered in colored pencil textures of a woman in an ornate red dress running up a stairwell, away from a horned, clawed shadow approaching from a side hallway. The scene is flooded in red lighting, with ornate gothic wallpaper, paintings, sconces, and wainscotting in the background.

Arturia, the friendly musician from Laterano, on vacation

She's so passionate about her music, and is always excited to have the opportunity to play for others! If she doesn't have her usual instrument, she can make do. You should let her play Wonderwall for you!

Text Page, Persian Verses (Recto); Portrait of Nushirwan the Just (Verso) https://clevelandart.org/art/1959.330

Mongol interest in the production of illustrated manuscripts eventually focused on Persian epic poetry. The Shahnama, a compilation of the epics and tales of Iran's legendary heroes, was a natural choice; the book included many subjects that suited Mongol taste, such as banquets, battles, hunting, and magical or fantastic events. Seated on the throne in the center of the painting is the Sasanian ruler of Iran, Khusraw I Anushirwan (531–579), descendant of Bahram Gur. Above the king's head an inscription reads, "Picture of Nushirwan the Just." The figure in the elaborate turban to the left of the king is probably the young Minister Buzurgmihr, famous for his wisdom and virtue. To celebrate the explanation of a troublesome dream by Buzurgmihr, Nushirwan held a series of seven banquets. The text around this painting describes the fifth banquet.

More Herodotus sketches to figure out how to draw him.

I get this feeling sometimes when making new characters of strong indecision over how they look. Like, "I'm sorry, dude, that you look weird; I have no idea how you look!🥲"

A sketch of Herodotus, a skinny lagomorphic alien, posing with a lotus flower in one hand and over his heart with the other. He wears a long shirt with spots meant to represent lily pads from his homeworld.

This sketch gives him visible irises.

A sketch of Herodotus carrying a big shipping box of curry mix, smiling and saying, "Don't worry, I heard you!" referring to his long, floppy ears behind him.

Illustration of a millefleurs-style tapestry of two barn owls circling a curled up rabbit. The animals are surrounded by various other plants and animals that juxtapose symbols of life and death, making it unclear if the rabbit lives or dies.

Risoprint-esque illustration of a giant white-bodied oarfish against a night sky, curled around a highway billboard. The billboard says “caution” in vibrating letters against a bright yellow background. Roadside lights and power lines are overlaid onto the oarfish’s body.

Illustration of a rat king (multiple rats tangled together by their tails). The rats are all clustered in the top half of the composition, with their tails forming a loop below. A dripping crown is overlaid on the loop, and the rats all have small crowns.

Illustration based on the The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, where the phrase “albatross around your neck” is derived from. An albatross is tangled in rope, with the rope forming a noose around a skeleton’s neck and tied with a bowline knot. An arrow intersects the knot, and tears drip from the point of the arrow.

miss amin...?

An illustration of an au ra, a dragon-like kemonomimi from final fantasy 14, sits upon a bed. She's in the middle of manipulating a large knit sweater- and whether she's dressing or undressing is clear. The sky is golden, and that same warm light illuminates her.

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

I just finished this up in a SmArtSchool mentorship class with Sam Weber. 😊 The assignment was to create an illustration with an original character, and I went with my current D&D character 😅

A woman with a shaved head in gold armor stands among dark briars. The briar thorns pierce her armor and skin in a few places, and she hangs her head in a defeated posture.
