Whale Boy - 2020

Another quasi OC of mine, also originally conceived from an InkTober prompt. This was my third crack at ole' Whale Boy and I love the color palette. I also want to one day get this umbrella made 🐳

A glittering fruit tart from Lefkos Pyrgos Cafe in Astoria, NYC, whose fresh and decadent taste still rings loud in my memories 4 years later. This ended up being a great study in lighting, reference, and still life. #art #myart #digitalart #food #stilllife #dessert #photoshop #illustration #artist

Shen Comix @shenanigansen.bsky.social · 14h

Panel 1: Shen is looking down at his hand from a somewhat bottom-up perspective, saying "y'know, I think it's time I learned to draw hands."

Panel 2: We focus on Shen's hand from his perspective. It is very simplistic, looking sort of like a water-inflated white rubber glove with 3 fingers and a thumb.

Panel 3: The text says "*horrible cracking noise*" as the hand transforms into a realistic 4-fingered hand (albeit still paper white, as that is Shen's skin color). The panel is decorated with a spiral of chaotic, shaky black and yellow lines.

Panel 4: Shen is looking down at his hands, which are now both realistic, large 4-fingered hands. He says "Oh HELL yes. Now time to get that YAOI MONEY."

If there's one record I'd have to take with me on my trip to the Underworld, it would absolutely have to be the Rockin' #HADES Soundtrack 💀

I listened to this album a lot in my early 20s during a time of starting college, working my first job, making new friends, and figuring myself out 🦍

#WiccaWiccaVC Day 6 Monster House - A Record That You Want To Gatekeep: "Forever" by Mystery Skulls

Id never want to gatekeep something I love, but this album was such a huge influence on me & it took me 11 years to get it, so I can imagine being snobbish about it 💀

This is a Political Piece about that one time I totally got scammed into spending $9.00 on a shitty New York Hotdog and my friend admonished me.

I found Texas Moon by chance at @cactusmusic.bsky.social in Austin and had no idea about its sister album until I saw it online later! I'm glad to have gotten my hands on both.

birders, feast your eyes! my “extremely accurate birds” calendar is back by popular demand, and my illustrations are more realistic than ever! i do believe this new edition is the most anatomically-precise collection of bird illustrations ever drawn!
