Digital painting by Victoria Maderna. A mouse pollinating a squash flower with a brush, a butternut house in the background. Painting of a little witch on a comfy chair with a black cat and a crow. She has her shoes off and there's a spellbook and wand on a table next to her.

It was always a bit of a tense moment for Jacques, but it just was by far the best hot chocolate you could find.

I have said before and will say again that it is such a loss that we no longer get covers of this caliber for fantasy books.

This art is by Jean-Léon Huens. These covers are for the Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander. They lit my imagination on fire as a kid.
Young man in a red tunic bearing a sword surrounded by armed glassy-eyed monsters A red robed horseman with a skull face and stag's antlers rides through the forest, the horse rearing back, a shaft of light falling onto the scene A red haired woman in a red dress and a boy in a blue doublet stand in front of a huge black cauldron. In the foreground, three cackling hags. A boy in a blue tunic with a dagger tries to get a sword away from a giant orange cat

Day 22 of #septempera - autumn.

The scent of rain, the wind on your face, the soft crunch of dry leaves under your feet. Perfection.

Back to the scheduled programming😊

I really love the punk attitude blackbirds have to pecking the ground. This is no gentle peck. It's "I'm fucking shit up" and I'm here for it.

An illustration of a kid running (walking?) with his bird friends. All the birds decided to walk with him. The kid is holding a net for some reason which escapes me at this point. I think I originally wanted all of them to be chasing and catching insects, but I ran out of time. Done in Procreate.
