What if a bounty hunter fell in love with his acquisition?

This is the question that led to the creation of my co-authored book, Cohesion and Chaos.

Pre-order today! Releasing December 20, 2025.

Ebook: a.co/d/dVThfSd

Physical: aberrantarchives.myshopify.com/products/coh...

book cover of Cohesion and Chaos, the title at the top in white font. In the foreground stands a figure, but we only see his right arm holding a dark blade with a rune-etched crystal at the pommel. Underneath the hilt in the middle ground of the composition are the two main characters, Ilai and Ysella, looking at the figure off the page. Ilai is the tallest of the two, his dark curly hair framing pale features and a low set brow. Through his left brow is a faded scar that streaks cleanly to his cheek. His eyes are brown, and he has a beard and a severe focus. He's dressed in furs at his shoulders, a long cloak, and a rugged leather jerkin. In his right hand he holds a sword, but not at the ready. To his left is Ysella, a head shorter than Ilai. She has light, but tanned skin, blue eyes, and brown, curly hair rustled by wind. She has a look of both confusion and fear, her left hand resting on Ilai's left arm. Behind Ilai, she holds her own sword in her left hand, keeping it hidden from view. She is wearing furs on her shoulder, her cloak billowing to show her longer leather jerkin and light blue long sleeved shirt. She has a scarf around her neck. They're standing among fur pines shrouded in fog.

I hate doing this at ArtFight time, but art trades aren’t going to pay my bills, and my day job isn’t enough this time. I’m pinching pennies for rent but won’t have enough for insurance, phones, or food.

Influence map challenge for the @ohkaycafe.bsky.social server featuring what I’ve drawn inspiration from most in 2025. #meme #influence #closethippie #ohkaycafe

A collage of pictures on an orange and yellow page. The top text reads “Closet Hippie’s influence map”. The pictures (left to right top to bottom) are Ramona Flowers from the series “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off”, the cartoon characters Panty and Stocking, Closet Hippie (the artist’s recent chibi self portrait), a photo of two women in tank tops and bell bottom jeans sitting on a yellow and brown Firebird car, 3 characters from the show “Rings of Power”, a vintage looking red fairy drawing, and an illustration of a woman in a white dress holding a feather by Alphonse Mucha. The text on each image corresponds to what the image portrays.
