A selection of nine portraits - mostly commissioned by various clients as well as two personal pieces. They’re all done digitally in painterly style with visible brushstrokes and deep colours. There are vampires, vieras, elves, lizards, dragons and other humanoid but ethereal creatures.

Two painted book cover illustrations side by side, both showing a pale blond man and a brown-haired woman. The one on the left shows the figures lying down on the dark ground as they gaze longingly at one another. The one on the right has the man holding the woman in a dramatic pose as she awakens to her vampiric powers. Illustrations commissioned by Cat Rector for her novels: Coal Gets In Your Veins and Learning to Bleed.

Two watercolour portraits displaying loose brushwork. On the left - Maelle from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, a young girl with red hair in a ponytail. On the right - a woman with dark hair and flushed cheeks.

Illustration of a drow standing in front of a large white snake with wings. The drow has long white hair and dark green clothing with copper accents. He holds a dagger above his head with blue magic arcing between the blade and his hand. They are in the Underdark, with blue spores and mushrooms surrounding them.

Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. They are at a high altitude looking down into a valley with a river. From left: Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape); Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes, holding a blue palantir); Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff that crooks over and holds a glowing white stone); Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in one hand).

Illustration from first person view, showing a hand holding up an opalescent stone with a hole in the center. The stone has brass filigree, and through the hole is a view of a mountain sheep. The background is a mountainous landscape. There are slight magical effects showing that the view through the stone is a zoomed in view of the background.

An alabaster gargoyle and a feminine figure dressed in black robes with their faces shadowed by hoods. The pair are within a gothic styled church, standing before an altar on a dais, preaching to spectators behind the POV. Candles cast plenty of light in the room despite the flames being purple, and all the decorations and the architecture is gothic in design. They look as though they are in the middle of performing a sermon in unison

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.

La belle dame sans merci by Frank Bernard Dicksee version of Hans and Henry from Kingdom Come Deliverance

Illustration showing the characters from my book Niketas and Ulvar, but mermaid AU where Niketas is a merman. They are both underwater and Ulvar is dying.

Illustration of a boy in a dark, spooky, nordic forest. The boy's eyes are blurred. Naked tall trees, their branches almost stretching towards him, towering him. A faint shape of a bird in the upper left corner. There are a few lights of eyes in the forest, watching him.

An easter witch flying on a broom towards Blåkulla, a cat is standing on it as well. Both have glowing yellow eyes, staring into the camera. Birds are flying around them.
