Digital painting of a winged centaur. He has curly hair and facial beard, and his horse half is white, and extremely furry. His human half is covered in tattoos and white body hair, and he is wielding a mace/hammer weapon that is in the shape of a horse head. Digital painting of a pterosaur-like beast called "Wyvern Of The Sea". Its head, neck and upper torso is mostly white, it has a long yellow bill with sharp tips similar to a snapping turtle, a crest on top of its top beak, and an expandable pouch on its throat, similar to a pelican. There is a voluminous pouch of expandable sac around its neck and chest, similar to a Frigatebird, but it seems more decorative than functional. Its lower torso is a black color, with strong bird legs, that have blue webbed feet, similar to the bird Booby. Its tail is long, with fins running on its side, and on its tips.

It has wings that are more webbed than they are feathered, with a protruding thumb similar to a bat's, and three noticeable digits that are flat than they are wiry. It seems this creature is more reptilian and hydrodynamic, than it is avian and capable of flight. Digital painting of an elegant merman. There is a glow of royal blue coming out of a cavity in middle of his upper torso in the middle that extends to his abdomen, and out of two columns of holes in his bottom portion. His tail seems to be a hollow flesh and the blue magic extends out to form his fish tail. There is a royal blue sword on top of the character; the sword is slim and sharp, and the blade is sculpted to have an impaled fish on its end. fairy with giant blue morpho butterfly wings and a faint halo, holding a lantern that attract butterflies.

I haven’t been active, but you know how it is… the longer you put something off, the harder it is to come back.

Watercolour and coloured pencil on hot-press Saunders, 7x10”.

I tried to edit the frame in post, but figured the little imperfections look nicer 🌹
