Hey hey, #PortfolioDay!

I'm Ashley, a NY-based illustrator who works on book covers, tarot cards, and TTRPGs!

I'm on a mission to do more traditional work, and here is one I made last summer. I'm dying to do more, so keep an eye out!!!

I don’t know if you know this but as evidenced by my changing outfits and the changing light, a drawing can take several hours, several days, several months or even several years. A lot of work is hiding in that beautiful picture

I needed this.
And I keep telling myself: art needs space. Art needs boredom. You need yo get bored. You need yo get your head space empty. You need to start craving for something to get ideas. You need time for walking for hours and just observe. Art needs to grow from being resourceful not dry
For all of the creatives fretting about not being productive, this is a great reminder:

"There's a time to grow and a time to rest"

It's cold and the world is overwhelming. So, I'm resting!
Feeling grateful for plants this morning. Which is such a funny thing to say, but they (specifically my native garden) remind me of the seasonality of life & how there's a time to grow and a time to rest, how planting seeds for the future is something you spend your whole life doing. This is good.

My roommate is a teacher and has reported that ICE has been hanging around Septa stops and depots in the interest of abducting kids on their way home because they aren’t allowed to enter schools. They claimed to be part of a “Septa Strike Force” which does not exist. Boost if you can.

REVOLUTIONARY LETTER #90
Ancient History

The women are lying down
in front of the bulldozers
sent to destroy
the last of the olive groves.

I wanted to do another ink piece for a while and seeing all the hype for the new Nurgle Warhammer releases got me keen to paint a Rotsword Knight.

you've seen my paintings but what about my true passion? Yes I'm talking about reimagining the labyrinth at Chartres as a hedge maze in Medieval Dynasty

Bluesky is being silly and won't let me upload the video from the life drawing session I attended today, so have a little #Melinoë sketch instead~ 💚

It has never been more important in most of our lifetimes than now to make art that deeply offends and concerns fascists.

Do NOT argue with the cop about their probable cause. Let your lawyer do that later, it's what we're there for.

- DO say "I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT." And then SHUT UP.

On the anniversary of the LA fires, I was entrusted by the LA times with illustrating John Wirth’s personal essay about his experience losing his home. I can’t believe it’s been a year, I remember going outside and watching the ashes falling like snow like it was yesterday. Thank you to AD Jim Cooke

This year I want to get good at blocking in paintings more accurately without relying too much on lineart so I’m going to work on a bunch of studies and see where it gets me 😤

Another piece I painted for the new #MTGLorwynEclipsed set! This is Trystan, Penitent Culler...a special double-sided card (the other side was posted earlier). Special thanks to my amazing AD Deborah Garcia for trusting me with this piece. 💜⁠
