hi #PortfolioDay - available to make otherworldly work from 2025.
TTRPGs, board games, more vinyl covers and concept + visdev stuff for games/film/tv would be cool!
illustration for Haunted Table's Triangle Agency adventure 'rom dump' - of adventurers zapping out of a barn window - a horned cyclops witha book of spells, a protagonise-looking goblin girl, a blue demon with some kind of spirit mace. A grim reaper hovers in front of the crescent moon. Illustrated cover to the monkey man soundtrack vinyl. The monkey god hanuman opens his ribcage out, behind Dev patel's head. Hanuman's tail is a flaming circle that frames the figures, which dev patel graps. There's flame, blood, fleshy vomit. the busts of two figures, one looks in pain, as they're having their vocal cords yanked from a hole in their throat by the other, who clutches them in a bunch with their furthest hand. With their other hand they concentratedly use a stringed instrument bow on the vocal cords. A rainbow bridges the heads, and is dotted with fantastical music notation. Their busts rest above a small basin. a dark starry background, and a blue room where a bed sit next to windows looking out to the night sky. Psyche lies naked on a patterned bedframe amongst plants, her white hair arching around to the foot of the bed. She looks in wonder at Cupid - who is illuminated by the three candles she holds up. Cupid appears as a fleshy mass, strung within a halo, from which arrows eminate haphazardly.

I am leisurely making my way through Ursula Le Guin’s “Always Coming Home” and I came across a poem I just have to share.

The ending especially slaps.
ARTISTS Written on a white plaster wall in the workroom of the Oak Society in Telina-na. What do they do, the singers, tale-writers, dancers, painters, shapers, makers? They go there with empty hands, into the gap between. They come back with things in their hands. They go silent and come back with words, with tunes. They go into confusion and come back with patterns. They go limping and weeping, ugly and frightened, and come back with the wings of the redwing hawk, the eyes of the mountain lion. That is where they live, where they get their breath: there, in the gap between, the empty place. Where do the mysterious artists live? There, in the gap between. Their hands are the hinge. No one else can breathe there. They are beyond praise. The ordinary artists use patience, passion, skill, work and returning to work, judgment, proportion, intellect, purpose, indifference, obstinacy, delight in tools, delight, and with these as their way they approach the gap, the hub, approaching in circles, in gyres, like the buzzard, looking down, watching, like the coyote, watching. They look to the center, they turn on the center, they describe the center, though they cannot live there. They deserve praise. There are people who call themselves artists who compete with each other for praise. They think the center is a stuffed gut, and that shitting is working. They are what the buzzard and the coyote ate for breakfast yesterday.

Important context to "more/better training" arguments: the murder of Renée Good was a product of that training by someone who has trained others.

(I've seen same in civil rights cases; by moving where he did, he was intentionally generating a pretext to shoot her without genuine risk to himself.)

NEW: Jonathan Ross is former National Guard and Border Patrol and has been part of ICE's SWAT equivalent, a team leader overseeing FBI, ATF, and IRS agents, and a firearms instructor, according to testimony obtained by WIRED. This is from @hudsongiles.bsky.social and me:
ICE Agent Who Reportedly Shot Renee Good Was a Firearms Trainer, Per Testimony
Jonathan Ross told a federal court in December about his professional background, including “hundreds” of encounters with drivers during enforcement actions, according to testimony obtained by WIRED.

I think my portfolio site is down at the moment, but here's some of my stuff!
www.sajanrai.co.uk/portfolio
illustration of a a slime green mech hovers over red hot melting ground amidst a dark cityscape. a strange stout mecha, freshly landed pens up at the top. A figure stands grandly, surrounded by long trumpets emerging from the capsule. The landscape is a grassy, sunrise in a forest clearing. a figure with long dark hair and red eyes stands smiling. With both hands and their teeth, they calmly open a huge circular hole in their body. Blood pours profusely and the hole is full of hands. A window behind them shows a purple night scene illustration of a bust portrait of a person wearing headgear. It covers their eyes and is ocercroded with logos , stars whizzing around their temple, they are unhappy with this bullshit.

You gotta remember they punished me and have withheld payment for an entire twelve-issue run while other artists were allowed to publicly post drawings of DC characters joking about Kirk's death or killing ICE agents because I'm an underclass and it makes bosses insane when I shit talk my betters.
