#portfolioday

Nonbinary illustrator in nyc - I love colors, horror, trying to find beauty in the strange & unsettling and vice versa 💖

www.skullingway.com

Illustration of a ghostly white arm covered in flowers, butterflies, candy, peppers and sparkles. Unclear if these things are growing out of it or being pushed in

Illustration of the movie the substance. Sue & Elizabeth are naked, facing away & holding hands. Surrounding them are sparkles, eyes, flesh, teeth? Beer, a vial of green stuff, eggs, and strange hand, stars, a tv with a close up of sues lips, and they are sharing a blood transfusion

Illustration of the movie I saw the tv glow. The two main characters are floating on opposite sides of each other on the image, separated by fog, an ice cream truck and the villain ‘mister melancholy’ in a 90’s tv set. There’s two black coffins on each side of the tv

Illustration is the cover for the game ‘the time we have’. The top is a strange cluster of flower growths that also look like fungi. There’s a for separating down the middle with two boys sitting on either side. The one on the left is glowing and has similar growths on him. The one on the right is holding a flashlight

+ a couple more illustrations I personally like

Illustration of the show twin peaks. The setting is inside the black lodge, next to a lamp post with a strong light source is a statue, two hands in a strange formation & a cup of coffee turned upside down pouring out. Underneath is dale cooper walking next to a mirror image of himself. The doppelgänger is looking at the viewer with one shining eye. At the top left and bottom right corners are a symbol of two triangles, representing the two mountain peaks of twin peaks

Illustration of the movie the substance - features both leads facing away surrounded by an bunch of imagery from the films (eggs, teeth, blood, eyes, tv, sparkles, beer, vial of the substance, stars, flesh) in a blue background with tiles on the border like elizabeth's bathroom

Illustration of a two headed pigeon with lots of eyes standing on a coffee cup

A wall of shelves with angel decorations, mirrors, candles, flowers and strange voids and tentacles coming out everywhere

I also do various work in comics, covers, and more 💖

Open for work!!

Cover for my comic, Sparkle. A tv with wings and static floats at the top, looking down on a young girl being levitated up, like a ufo abduction. Underneath is a sinister demon hand, as if it’s orchestrating everything

Three panels of a comic page. A young girl in a hood is seen in the middle, from the back, going through the motions of her day - eating dinner with her parents, walking in a hallway, sitting in a classroom.

The Time We Have is available now!! A tabletop game by @moreblueberries.bsky.social about two brothers in the apocalypse, waiting out a zombie infection that will destroy one of them. I wrote one of the Door cards, illustrated by @egallagher.bsky.social!

Both sides of a card. On the front, a flaming door with a single crying eye looking through a hole in the center. On the back, a public safety alert titled Not So Spontaneous?

Illustration of Mary, Maria, and monster Mary from silent hill 2 - they're all in contained rectangular shapes. Maria is upside down in a cage, mary is just her clothes rotting on a bed, and monster mary is shown as herself.

Illustration of two panels like a comic, the edges are all pearls. On the top left is a bouquet of pink garden roses with blood dripping into it and overflowing out the side, beginning to drip outside the pearl frame. The right shows a lipstick dripping into blood on a hand with pink fingernails. The top right corner shows a pair of lips with shiny red lipstick. The background features purple barbed wire & sparkles on a black background.

Seriously, nyc, we’re lacking in silent hill themed parties. We’ve got the grime, we even at times get the weather and good fog close to the water…..
