Without downloading any new pics what's your energy going into 2025?
A drawing by Hans Holbein of the death and the Maiden. They are making out sloppy style and the Maiden is guiding Death's hand up her skirt

There is something about the tediousness and intricacy of etching that really soothes me. I love spending so long on just the one image. Here is one of my works in progress.
A picture of a zinc plate, etched with intaglio techniques. It represents a naked figure in a fetal position, face obscured, gently pressed in the beak of a giant bird. Two prints of the same etching. The figures are starkly white on a black aquatint background. It represents a naked figure in a fetal position, face obscured, gently pressed in the beak of a giant bird.

I wish the most tolerable (even pleasurable) of Christmas celebrations upon all of my favorite freaks.
a gouache painting of a woman sleeping an agitated sleep, two grinning impish monsters sitting atop of her chest. This is a pastiche of the famous painting The Nightmare by Heinrich Füssli, and the monsters are Gremlins from the movie Gremlins.

Gazing back.
A naked human figure is floating atop a body of water, a dark shapeless monster with a feline face looming over them. They contemplate each other.

I really enjoy doing these water paintings, especially the transparency/refraction part.
A serpentine figure with a human face is wriggling in the water, their gaze to the sky.

This picture of @fredtingaud.bsky.social with a Christmas hat looking like a cryptid. It's a meme to me.

A leap of faith.

A gouache painting of a naked figure bent over a body of water, trying to fish out elements of a face inside. Their immersed limbs appear distorted, perhaps because of refraction, perhaps because they're dissolving.
