I'm Sam, an enby illustrator on hiatus because of early motherhood.
I love whimsical fantasy art and children's illustration🖤✨🪐🌙

A witch girl with a mushroom hat and a little fluffy kitty familiar.

A white unicorn on a hill surrounded by brush. There's a white tree behind the creature all below a starry sky.

The Queen of Air and Darkness, the Arch fay of the Unseelie Court. An ominous figure constructed with wings and smoke.

A jolly little albino tiefling in a motley leotard and a mandolin in hand.

#Drawtober Chapter III - Mushroom Fairy
The Road of Trials

a small white dragon with fae-like wings trots along, leaving shining white mushrooms in its wake. The dragon is a tiny beacon of light in the overwhelming dark of the woods.

Hey, artist! Quote with your fanart!

It's the season after all 🍂

Over the Garden Wall fan art I made TEN years ago. Some lost kids in the autumn woods. The Beast looms over them in the tree branches. Made with pencil and digital color.

A bunch of nasty foes you might encounter along your way :

Sketchbook pages depicting a few fantasy inspired ennemies. from top left to bottom right : a tiny wizard, a great harpy covered in gold jewelry, a fly-guy thief, a bullfroag in armor with an axe, a regular harpy, a barbarian toad, a frog assassin with a scar on his face and a classic goblin bandit.

Worth staying up for this piece. Something outside of my usual comfort zone and proud of this piece

harpy in watercolor, 2024

Watercolor painting of a harpy woman. She has blonde hair bellowing upward, her entire body is covered in feathers, and her legs are leathery and ends in bird feet with sharp talons. Her wings are half folded, and she is standing on one leg over rocks by the sea.

"3 of Pentacles" from the Whimsy Woods Tarot I'm creating w/ @deborahblakeauthor.bsky.social to be published by Llewellyn in 2027!

I currently have 50 paintings complete! All made with ink, watercolor, + acryla gouache. We loved inserting fairy tales + other favorite stories into some of the cards.

An illustration of three pigs working together to put three pentacle designs above the stone wall entrance to the medieval town. One pig is on a ladder. The others are pointing and discussing. One pentacle is made from straw, one from stone, and the other from sticks.
