For those who have been to the @criticalrole.bsky.social pop-up, you may have noticed I have a little something on the wall. I re-did the piece!
Cheers to a fantastic and wonderful wedding next week!

Really stoked that this cover I did for Tori Ann Martin got released!
A Hansel and Gretel retelling, Witch of the Shadow Wood is going to be a beautiful love story that I cannot wait to read!

Art vs Artist 💚

A young woman with reddish blond hair in a Victorian updo sits in an intricately carved stone throne. She looks with a mocking smirk at the viewer, and an elegant silver crown dangles from one hand. Monstrous hands with long black nails reach from behind the throne, and are scoring deep gouges into the stone.

It's me, a white person with shoulder length wavy brown hair, red framed glasses, and orange lipstick.

Hahaha that’s a perfect analogy! I usually don’t mind a lot of the parts of doing it, but lately it all feels like screaming into the void and I’m just sick of it hah

Dan English 🔜 IX 2025 @danenglish.bsky.social · 9d

For someone who used to have a career in marketing…I am apparently not very good at marketing my art lol 🫠

Hi. I'm Riola. I enjoy depicting characters in complex poses and angles. A character's personality is very important to me; it determines the mood I convey.
I'm currently accepting commissions for October on VGen:
