This clip is from 2019. This was a larger piece and here I was using a Kuretake synthetic fountain brush pen rather my usual Chinese brush.

The 2nd edition of the Blood Moon Tarot is finally here! This weekend will be the 10 year anniversary of beginning this project, when I started the first painting for the deck. I was very much in the space of The Fool as I began a new adventure.

A painting of The Fool from the Blood Moon Tarot. It depicts a person standing before a giant, cosmic gateway beyond which a vast landscape awaits. “Before we come into this world we exist as a part of the void. We are nothingness, and though that may seem frightening, it allows us infinite potential. If we are nothing, we can become anything. This card is one of new beginnings: our first breath, our first choice, our first step in a long journey. The Fool is the hero who must adventure through the unknown and learn the lessons offered in each card of the Major Arcana.”

Jesus Christ.

It was my birthday recently and I sincerely considered not living anymore.
The worst part of all is that the parents who once supported me fully in being an artist sent me an AI generated picture of a caricature of themselves holding a birthday cake with my name spelled incorrectly.

A bit of silliness from 2021.

Kong's first line is taken directly from the 2007 BBC adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford.

Single-panel comic drawn in brown pencil. Godzilla and King Kong sit facing each other on mounds of rocks, taking tea, with an elegant tea set on the ground between them.
Kong: 'What is all this agitation? Are the summer gloves come in?'
Godzilla, waving an unfolded letter with a ribbon and sealing wax: 'Why, an invitation, to be sure! To Mothra's garden party!'
Kong: *Gasp!*

Wow, this is really nice. Thank you 💚

that being said, I love the Blood Moon Tarot by @samguayart.bsky.social as a queer fever-dream of mystical otherbeings that dismantle binary gender at every turn, with a beautiful take on the elements. it’s a deck I can trust—I always feel like I can see myself and my people reflected in it.

“what tarot deck is the most queer?” you fool, they are all queer, the major arcana depicting life’s effervescent journey of transformation from the twinkish Fool to the ethereal naked lady World
