Cover artwork for Petra Lord's Queen of Faces - gold foil edition for the french version by Lumen éditions.
Petra Lord's Queen of Faces, Livre 1 with a logo from LUMEN. A giant face in a starry night sky hovering about blue waves and an academic building. Cold blues and golds, the face is illuminating the surrounding areas. There's butterflies in golds in the sky

My cover artwork for “Mirrorwoven”, by Bori Cser!
A sapphic YA fantasy in a Renaissance Venice-inspired setting - out July 2nd, 2026
a young woman in a red dress, with blond hair and a lute in one habd, faces a large mirror. the architecture is inspired by renaissance Florence & Venice. the girl in the mirrow has red, longer hair. Red-teal color palette, an interior scene: fancy room, playful architecture. in the reflection of it stand two women, seperatavely, holding onto a reiling on two opposing balcony. both shoulder length hair, left flat textured, right curled. a teal, magical smoke cradles the entire artwork along its borders.

An artwork for Polygon I somehow always forget about (2021)
A black, vivid and darker cold blue with yellow lights as a palette. the lights are that of a cinema set, people are lounging in the background, watching two very confident figures crossing arms, as if about to enter combat. It's the actress Kylie Minogue and actor Jean-Claude van Damme! They're wearing costumes for "Street Fighter", the Movie in the 19s. Please don't make me look up which characters they are cosplaying

If you ever feel like your sketchbook as an artist is not looking pretty or artistic enough: take a look at Gustav Klimt‘s sketchbook

'A Touch of Poison' by Clare Sager, cover work for the french translation by Bragelonne.
art nouveau building with iridescent coloring on a blue background. plants curl around the building, with a sun and moon in either respective corner of the lower left and right half of the building. it all frames a woman with red hair in a blue dress, her cheek cradled by a tan man in all blacks. he's a fae

Had a lot of fun adding a CR easter egg or two into this illustration. You can get these beautiful shiny dice now on all their storefronts!

It’s here! I’ve done the box art for @everythingdice.bsky.social Residuum dice set collab with @criticalrole.bsky.social — two of my favorite things 💎
Box art held in greens and greys of a tiefling blacksmith holding up a gem with pincers or idk what to call them. Blacksmith...pincers... they're resting a pickaxe on their shoulder with raw green gems underneath them on an anvil. There's green fire underneath, leading up to a window where you can see a castle in the BG. Above is a plume of green magical swirls. It's framed in art deco elements looking like dice from the dice set. The tiefling wears a messy bun, a confident smile and sexy piercings

Cover #4 of Jeff Wheeler's Harbinger series in french 💍
a cover illustration for Jeff Wheeler‘s ‚Sombre Terres‘, held in yellow, cold browns and grays. A man with brown hair smiles as he puts on a ring on a woman with dark hair, dressed in a wedding gown. between them and below the title is a waterfall. the one below leads to cannons firing, while the characters are surrounded by soldiers wielding flags in celebration. there‘s four circles in each corner, representing (clock wise, top left first): two snakes intertwined - a lotus - a deadly poisonous flower - a ring around a chrysanthemum

‘Share the Burden’ An illustration I’ve done for Daggerheart 🗡️💜 (AD @robotpencil.bsky.social )
Two women against a pink backdrop with a ship and sundown. They're holding a rope attached to a broken mask, with a muscular woman of asian ethnicity doing most of the work tbh; the slimmer one in the back, a daemon featuring horns has greyish skin and an afro. There's water splashing onto a cliff on the foreground.
