I FUCKEN FINISHED!!! As always, it took me 2 months, but I got there in the end.
The final illustration of a pink silkmoth with beige and brown upper wings and vibrant pink lower wings. Oh, and an incredibly fluffy body. A close up showing the detail of the furry wings.

Ink portrait of a witch holding a black cat. She has long orange nails. Ink drawing of a creepy looking doll with a tear falling from its eye. The tear is colored orange which kinda makes it look like blood. Ink drawing of a fairy kneeling down to hold and inspect an acorn. There are fallen leaves around it.

Holding a card with an ink drawing of a black billed magpie perched on a post. Lots of bright orange in the background, looking splotchy and like flames.

Dream Walking in the Fields of Your Youth

An Atlantic puffin surrounded by seacampion. He isn’t quite asleep or awake. His mind wanders to his youth. Sounds and images scatter across fields of his day dreams. He misses when things were simpler but at the same time imagines making different choices

Raccoon bowl, 2025
Front facing view of ceramic raccoon bowl. The outside is mottled brown/gray, and the inside is black. There are two black ears sculpted on the rim, as well as a sculpted snout under the eyes which are underglazed on. Side view with the ears and snout on the ride side, and now we can see the tail on the left side. It's short and stubby because I didn't want it to break off lol Three-quarter view of the back, with the tail in the front-left and the ears in the back-right. Three-quarter view of the front with the face in the bottom-left

the highly camouflaged least bittern 🍂sat down and painted for the first time in 2 months, it was much needed. 5 x 7” acrylic on clayboard
a photo of a painting of a least bittern. the bittern is propped up on some branches staying alert for some food. the similar browns make the bittern hard to see, especially because they're so tiny compared to your average heron.
