I'm so sorry. This sounds horrible to deal with.

The #inktober word of the day (9) is #heavy

That word brings to mind one thing. My dog, Hunt. He’s about 100lbs of fluffy #gsd sweetness. I love him so much.

Inktober day 4 is #murky

The water and the night may be murky, but the company is worth it.

Inspired by Creature from the Black Lagoon, and The shape of water. Gillman is my favorite movie monster.

It’s Inktober day 2! #weave

Weaving brings to mind spiders for me. So here’s my spider monster weaving braids into his mate’s hair.

She’s reading one of my favorite monster series by the amazing @tiffanyroberts.bsky.social check that out if you haven’t already.

Happy Inktober! 🎉

It’s day 1 and the prompt is #mustache
When I think of mustaches, I think of Burt Reynolds. Back in the day, Burt did a photo shoot on a bearskin rug. You should def google it. 😋

Anyway, I decided to recreate this pose with my orc OC, Gryg. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

You guys. I got to do the cutest commission. ❤️ Jaymie wanted a couple’s piece, with her and her husband… but make him a Minotaur. I am all over this!

If this is something you’d like to do with your partner, or you just want an imaginary cryptid/monster partner, hit me up for commission.

I’m a couple of days late, but I just had to do something fun for the 50th Anniversary of Rocky Horror Picture Show! I will never forget the day I was watching VH1 as a kid and it came on and blew my little mind. 🤯 Instantly obsessed.

You guys! It’s release day for Lilith Stone’s new book, Minding the Minotaur! I got to do two awesome commissions for her for this book and I am psyched to read it.

Happy Friday! ❤️

Cats are bad. Even I orc ones.
I don’t think I’ve ever drawn anything chibi-ish. Did I do it?! 🫣😅🤷‍♀️

Sometimes you just have to draw a silly little guy. Modeled after my fat brat, Bean. The polydactyl (extra) toes are intentional. 🤪
