Hi! I'm a storyboard artist, but in my not-getting-paid time I work on my own illustrations and webcomic, A Cosmic Narrative. It's snippets of an alien's travel journal. Microfiction scifi-fantasy anthology of sorts.

#Portfolioday #webcomic #art #painting #drawing

A painting of a woman with a gun and flashlight walking thru dark tunnel with pipes running along side it. She has short blue hair and cyber punk looking electronic glowing tattoo on her forehead, it matches the glowing circuit on the gun and flashlight. She is looking offscreen down a lighter tunnel running perpendicular to hers. The light from the tunnel illuminates her left side. It also illuminates a liquid like monster behind her. It's gooey hand reaches for her in the darkens. It has glowing eyes and a huge gapping mouth that is just barely visible in the darkness.

A painting of a scene in front of a destroyed house, two men hug each other while a beam of light illuminates them in the darkness. The man facing the us has a grimace of worry on his face.

A painting of the night sky is lit by green and blue auroras. Stars are behind them, mountains in front. In the foreground is an elven woman sitting cross legged on the end of a pier over a lake reflecting the lights dancing in the sky.

Journal page of a sketch of an older man looking down in confusion and a weird little critter with a huge snout looking very cute. Text reads: What was he suppose to do with this little guy? He was never an animal person. They are smelly, dirty and so unpredictable. He liked his life orderly, clean and....boring he now realized. Maybe he could use a bit of companionship...and dirt? The little guy rubbed up against his leg and hummed. Yes, this might be nice after all.

My therapist has to remind me constantly that just because I'm anxious something may happen doesn't necessarily mean it will.

I don't think I've post this lil guy yet, all finished! The eyes shrank too much to tuck an LED in there, but I still love it! #ceramics

A left hand holding a palm-sized ceramic pumpkin, with a wicked smiling face carved into it. The face has been lined in black, the exterior is a bright pumpkin orange, and the lil stem is brown. The background is a grey floor.

Yak, yak, yak. Her roommate just wouldn't shut up.

And it wasn't even interesting chatter, like the new magical spell discovery or the big shake up in the government. It was gossip, rumors, who was doing what with whom.

Rolling her eyes, she didn't want to listen about their neighbor Bob's new hookup, but her oversensitive hearing couldn't tune her out, or Bob last night and his very loud and active sex life.

it’s creepy season, did you know about haint blue? I grew up in Charleston which has a lot of practices that came from the enslaved African population. A lot of people just accept these things and don’t know where it comes from. The blue porch ceiling is to fool ghosts to think it’s sky and move on.

A pen and color pencil drawing of a rhinoceros with a house-shaped burden on its back. The rhino is mostly grey. The house is purple, yellow and brown with the number 20 and letter “w” and a scissor headed bird on the front. There is a long brass pole that extends out horizontally from the structure that has a orange pumpkin dangling from it

Daily bunny no.3102 wishes they had checkers

Three bunnies are afloat at sea, on a yellow inflatable life raft. They have a few supplies, and look bored but not too worried. It is a calm, dusky evening, and there is a seagull nearby

I just listened to a long lost record from 1948 of my mom as a toddler with my grandparents and great grandparents. At one point an old plane could be heard in the background. My Nana had what sounded like almost a transatlantic accent.

That was a very cool experience.
