Hi #PortfolioDay
I'm Carson, a Chinese Canadian illustrator who's been working in freelance illustration since 2012
I've run my own t-shirt company, made emotes and overlays for twitch streamers, and also worked on a couple indie games.

I'm also a partnered twitch streamer - I stream 4 days a week!
A digital sketch of a woman-like shape made of gnarled wood, flesh, and flowers. The majority of the upper half of her head hollowed out and missing. In a void in the figure's back, the face and hands of a woman peers out, cold eyes looking at the viewer. A digital sketch of a nightmarish elk made of humans, bone, and gristle with its head raised toward the sky. A four armed figure wearing a helmet holds up a small object that looks like a foetus. A digital sketch of a person holding up a gnarled staff to ward against a large horned and feathered creature and several other humanoid creatures. A digital sketch of a 3 armed woman. Between her palms is the brightly glowing form of a cat. Erupting out of the cat are various flowers and plants. The woman is a teal colour, and the flowers are a warm purple.

Hey friends!
Happy Monday!
I have a ton of things to do, and I want to wrap up these two illustrations today if possible (likely not, but I'm being optimistic)

So let's get to it!

It's figure drawing day again!

Today's focus will be on foreshortening - something that I'm often not great at depicting, so we're going to challenge ourselves today!
Come follow along!

Thank you to all the amazing folks who showed up with open hearts and open wallets and helped us raise $375 for @porpoiseorg.bsky.social today as part of #SaveTheVaquita Week!

We drew 20 Vaquitas, which is sadly also our most optimistic estimate of how many are currently still alive.

My friends, it's time to #SaveTheVaquita!
The Vaquita is the world's most critically endangered marine mammal, with less than 20 left alive.

But together, we can do something about that!
Join me on twitch to raise funds for @porpoiseorg.bsky.social and raising awareness for gorgeous animal!

Here's how the non-dominant hand illustration went

I completely forgot to share how it turned out!
Drawn entirely with a brush and ink in my left (non-dominant) hand and made up on the spot without any planning or pencils.

If you've ever drawn something with your non-dominant hand, I'd love to see
A brush and ink illustration of a woman with horns and hairy wing-like shapes coming out of her back. She is resting her hands on a circular shield-like shape. A severed head with its eyes covered lies next to the shield. Around this is a frame made of stone and covered in flowers and a banner that features a sword and a crown. This was drawn entirely with my non-dominant (left) hand.

Cats are fed, litter boxes cleaned, and they've terrorised the house.

A digital sketch of an ornately carved guillotine, an old man with a false crown made of weeds and twigs looks down pensively at a pile of heads that sit beneath the guillotine in the foreground. Through the hole of the guillotine we can see that his hands are shackled. The blade of the guillotine hangs above his head, ready to drop.

This was my procrastination drawing today instead of getting actual work done.
But I'm happy with it anyway. Time well wasted/spent.
A digital sketch of a woman sitting on a gnarled tree, looking off into the distance at a distant tower that appears to be made of gigantic corpses that have melded together. Further behind that, a gigantic skull looms on the horizon bathed in light. the skull appears to also be made of giant corpses

Hey friends,

During the month of September, my community on twitch unlocked the creation of subscriber inspired "tarot-like" cards!

These ones aren't any of them, just examples of esoteric drawings.
But we'll be starting them today!

A digital sketch of a hare with fungal growths erupting out of their eyes and their fur. A moth-like bug sits upon its open mouth, the chitinous back of the insect forms a face. The hare itself also has human hands as front and back paws. Above their head, the Lepus constellation can be seen as white dots in the sky. Flanking the constellation are two additional hares, their backs are covered in fungus. Surrounding and also behind the hare, various plants are growing. Two blooming hyacinths are prominently featured. A digital sketch of a beheaded woman, holding her head in her hands, her head replaced with wrapped twigs in the shape of an inverted triangle and decorated with grape vines. A toad and a snake sit on opposing shoulders. A digital sketch of a person seated on the dirt, with some plants growing around them. Their head is turned to face the sky - their face erupting in branches, leaves, and flowers, some of which have skulls in them. A digital sketch of a four armed woman, she has multiple wings growing from her body, and a feathered growth on her head with 6 glowing eyes. Above her head floats a strange chakra-like structure above a thin crescent shape.

Did a much shorter stream today, but it was the first actually traditional art stream of mine in a while.

This was drawn as part of an art challenge - to draw a whole illustration with my non-dominant (left) hand.

Thanks to the wonderful folks who came and hung out with us while we worked on this!

Here's a previous non-dominant hand illustration, I think this is from 2018?
Made up on the spot, no pencils or planning ahead, ink and watercolour with a brush.
An ink and watercolour painting drawn and painted with my non-dominant hand. It's a painting of a long dead warrior, now a skeleton, foliage growing on their remains, a while python slithers across their corpse.
