I'm sharing these again to pin them to my profile so new people can look at them (if you're new, hello)

Acrylic, 3' × 5'. A figure in a red coat inspects a wall of limestone in the fall.

Ink and wash drawing of the doll and the bath messengers from bloodborne. A distant looking woman in a victorian bonnet and shawl is standing behind a bush. There is a bird bath full of small, gaunt, humanoid creatures in the foreground with candles at its base

I have yet to draw a better bug than this bug I drew last year.
I think it turned out so well because it was a real bug that I befriended that summer. I hope he had a good life

Earlier I was drawing what was in front of me to distract myself from pain

A sort of psychedelic ballpoint drawing of a car. The plate reads "why?"

Some lino is slippery. I've managed to avoid any stabbing so far, but have had some close calls even when trying to cut away from myself

I got to try it for the first time just a couple years ago. Fun medium, it's become a favourite

I heard that including a face does something for the instagram algorithm, so I tried it and it actually worked... Which is terrible news for me, it means I have to keep doing it

I have reluctantly started making videos for instagram again

All the numbers are wrong at the moment, I planned to glue accurate numbers over them but haven't done so yet

Possibly the largest ink drawing I've done. It's a full bristol board sheet.
I'm no letterer but I had fun with the text. Inspired by an old sears catalogue
