My work for @exandriaartists.bsky.social Tourists’ Guide to Tal’dorei: North East! I was assigned Griffins, Harpies, and Giant Eagles and decided to explore them by making clay whistles of each. #criticalrole #criticalrolefanart #tgtt

#CriticalLoFi

A digital painting of Liana and Rei’nia Saph from Critical Role’s Exandria Unlimited: Divergence in a modern lofi setting. They are sharing a large window seat in front of a night-sky view with a prominent full moon. They are in a cozy setting, surrounded by shelves of photos and knick-knacks from their histories, as well as some that reference Celia Rose Gooding.

Here’s the piece I did for the @exandriaartists #Critical LoFi project: Liana and Rei’nia Saph, from ExU: Divergence. Celia’s performance was so incredible, and it was a challenge and a joy to bring this project to life.
My first time animating!

Asha at the Critical Role Tenth Anniversary Party, waiting Very Patiently for her wife. Made for @exandriaartists #CR10Party just a little #CriticalRoleFanart to celebrate ten years of #CriticalRole

A digital painting of Asha, from Critical Role: Downfall dressed in a skull head-dress and fur cowl, a rib bone corset and skeletal gloves, and a skirt of dry, twining roots. She holds a glass of wine, looking down at the viewer intensely. Her chest is carelessly exposed.

My piece for @exandriaartists.bsky.social #AGERewind Project!
I chose to update a piece I did of the Wildbros on Rumblecusp, working with a style I’ve enjoyed playing with digitally the last few years.

First Activation of the Astral Leywright ☀️⛵💫☄️🌸
My piece for the Calamity: End of an AGE project hosted by @exandriaartists.bsky.social. Mixed media on illustration board. Been real excited to share this one :].

#AGECalamity #CriticalRoleFanart #collage

A non-representational collage comprised of many pieces of printed, painted, and colored paper. The overall composition moves diagonally across the piece, with the lightest colors and most of the metallic gold elements focused in a diagonal line from the top right to bottom left corners. The center also contains many star shaped pieces, in contrast to the blob-like shapes that form the majority of the rest. From the center outwards the colors change from white and gold to pink, purple, orange, and yellow, out to teal, blue, and purple. An image of a sailboat on the ocean is located slightly off center, surrounded by a purple halo cut from paper. The piece is signed in the bottom right, reading 'Cecil 2024'.

"Things are expanding once again, Zerxus..." Calamity is possibly my favourite actual play Ever, and it was so satisfying to paint the moment shit goes absolutely sideways in conjunction with @exandriaartists.bsky.social ! #AGECalamity #criticalrolefanart

Emhira watching over Ayden. Though he cannot save everyone, he will still try
For @exandriaartists.bsky.social Calamity Project
#AGECalamity #CriticalRoleFanArt

Fanart of Critical Role: Downfall. It is a moment where Ayden holds a dying man's hand and attempts to heal him. There is a sad realization on Ayden's face, seeing the invisible golden thread leading away towards Emhira, who stands at the door quietly watching on. Ayden is on the right of the painting, his left hand reaching forward and glowing. In the background there is a doorway with sunlight pouring in, and Emhira stands covered in shadow.

The destruction of Zemniaz during the Calamity, above what would become known as the Zemni Fields 💥

Second #CriticalRoleFanart for the #AGECalamity project! @exandriaartists.bsky.social

#art #conceptart #criticalrole

Painting of a floating city exploding into small pieces flying into the air, one colliding with the ground in a large explosion, lighting up the idyllic countryide landscape and muddy lane. The sky is dramatic, with rings of magical energy and and lightning emenating from the city.
