“Help me name this creature”
This little emerald green Llamhigyn Y Dŵr needs a name and I’d love to hear your best creative / scientific names. What would you call this beastie if you discovered it? The best names will accompany all the printed artworks with credit of course 🙂

They did all the tests; bloods, ultrasound, CT scan, rulled out anything that would need emergency surgery. Thankfully the pain has also been gradually reducing with bedrest which is a huge relief. I’m still waiting on more tests over the next few weeks but at at last we are home and comfortable 💚

A little insight into my sketching process. I like to doodle traditionally because it feels more organic and ideas just flow better sometimes.
Often I’ll scan those sketches or photograph them and refine them further in ProCreate on the IPad Pro

In Cymru folklore Cŵn Annwn are the spectral hounds of the otherworld, with pure white fur and red tipped ears and tails. Their barking grows louder the further they run and quieter the closer they get.

Story idea- Norse God Odin is cursed to reincarnate as an animal until the day Fenrir is free.He is to loose an eye in every lifetime and his memories are intact. Hamster Odin is placed into a shelter and adopted by a women who is strangely drawn to him. She is unaware that she’s Fenrir’s descendant
Right now there’s a one eyed hamster at my local animal shelter and if I had space for another enclosure I absolutely would take home the poor little guy!!! My heart!

Don't worry about perfection when you capture an idea!
One thing that helped me work faster & with confidence is getting ideas on the canvas fast and having fun with it. I scribble roughs for comics without worrying about perfection. The sooner I visualise an idea, the more it can grow in my mind.

Seeing so many companies and even artists using genAI is so depressing and makes me so angry. I hope it will die soon.
You really can see the money eyes in everyone using it, it's just pure fucking greed, that's it.
