The cover of a book entitled A DEMON'S NAME UPON YOUR LIPS. At the bottom is the subtitle: A Sapphic Romance of Melodia, by Madeline Konrad. A woman in a red flowing corseted dress, on the right, looks longingly upon another woman in blue military dress. The woman on the left bears a hardened expression. Surrounding them is a border of various specific flowers.

Hello Folks,

I stumbled upon this novelette yesterday and it let my live shine brighter! 🌠
It is such a beautiful and heart warming story. I want to share it with you! 🥹❤️

I recommend reading it. And I'd like to support Madeline. She is a queer artist from US.

Made these for a friend a while back. It's Mae Borowski from Night in the Woods! Two facets of her, at least. Really oughta replay that game at some point, especially now that it's autumn... 🍂

Drawing of Mae Borowski from the game Night in the Woods. She is an anthropomorphic cat with dark blue fur with red highlights in her hair, and big red eyes. She is holding a knife.

I found some old fan art I did of October Santerelli's story Glimmers in the Night. This is the main character Jeth, the witch's son, pre and post the events of the story. Go check out October and their excellent work at: @okwrites.bsky.social

#fanart #magic #witch #characterart #transauthor

Drawing of a young man before and after an arcane transformation. On the left, he has dark hair, wears a long hooded coat and fingerless gloves, and carries a messenger bag. On the right, he appears more confident, his skin more saturated and his hair white. His coat is more tattered, but is covered in sparkling star-like dust. He holds an arcane jar in one hand that he is looking at with a somewhat cheeky expression.

Oop! My hand just slipped and wrote a 3,300 essay about Silksong.

Alas.

I should have it ready and polished on my blog in a few days. Monday at the latest!

3/3 More profile pics. I rocked another elfy looking one for a while that I edited down and recolored from a fuller illustration. I like where I landed recently, will probably keep it a while until I get indecisive again. Ever evolving, ever elfing ahead.

1/3 Thought it'd be fun to do a retrospective of the various profile pics I've made for myself through the years. The first is the oldest I could find, then I tried something vaguely Disco Elysium-y before settling on a comfy standard I kept for years.

The last of these pen and ink experiments I'll share for the moment. Had an idea for an armadillo dragon and just went nuts. Tried to make this look a lil vintage, like something you'd find in a weird ttrpg zine from the 80s.

#PortfolioDay #inkdrawing #armadillo #dragon #fantasyart #vintagestyle

A giant armadillo-dragon steps over the hilltop, bathing the land in bilious fire. A tiny spearman is rushing in to fight it while an archer takes aim nearby. A civilian cowers beside a knight with their shield and morningstar up, and an elven wizard in the foreground takes a break from reading their tome to look at the viewer.

Two gay bank robbers coping with the disappointment of a heist gone wrong. They'll get 'em next time, probably.

#PortfolioDay #penandink #bankrobbers #gaydudes #gayart #inkdrawing #theinherenthomoeroticismofabankheist

Two would-be bankrobbers hold hands before an open vault door, one consoling the other. Behind them in the vault, a pedestal is empty of its treasure. Someone clearly beat them to it, but at least they have each other, and some leftover dynamite.
