My art is pointless.
It serves no purpose.
It's social media fodder that quite literally has five minutes of fame before it disappears in the bowels of the feed forever.

And that's something I want to figure out in the new year. A way to give my art more permanence, a little more meaning. (1/2)

Perchta is a large humanoid creature vaguely resembling an elderly woman. Known for entering homes full of refuse, chaos and filth.

Homeowners are advised to evacuate the premises if Perchta is suspected to be present.

Well, I had a pretty good year, in retrospect. In addition to some paintings I'm really happy with, I made two short black and white comics.

Thank you to everyone who has followed me on my art journey this year. I will do my best to serve you something even better in 2026.

🍻🧡

After countless millennia of waiting, at last the Exalted One hath descended from His Throne in the Heavens, His divine voice gracing us with but one question:

"Wouldst thou partake with Me in these chimken nuggies?"

Doth thou dare accept His gracious blessing?

Found a folder in my Instagram saves labeled 'References inspiration' and all that's in there is a picture of Iggy Pop shirtless.

Lost, art thee?

Thou art not the first in these crypts, and thou shalt not be the last.

Come closer, and this humble servant will show thee thine way to salvation.

It seems thou cannot afford not to trust me, lest thy would like to end up as one of the many lost souls here...

Siren Alligators might be the most specialized human predators. These pack hunters have two distinct ways of mimicking our species.
Juveniles thrash in the water near ships, using their face-like throat markings to appear like a drowning person. The pack attacks when someone attempts a rescue.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

I'm genuinely edging this piece, it's been THIS close to being finished all weekend and I just need to suck it up and actually get to it or I'll regret not finishing it when I had the spare time to do so. 😅

Please support your local horror artist suffering through these dark winter months while they do everything in their power to suppress the urge to draw a body horror Santa Claus again.

It's kinda nuts, really.

A 100 years ago the only way to get noticed was to get your paintings into some exclusive gallery or salon and it'd be only seen by locals,
and now I have people from across the world in Tingtangwallawallabingbang, Australia hopping into my inbox to say me my art is neat.

Have you ever been like, “wow I need more hi-res textures to overlay“? well you’re in luck:

I’ve been working through my archive of handmade textures and putting them up on gumroad, so that others may FAFO.

All files are .TIFF, 300-600 dpi, and handmade by me.

Today is my birthday! 🎂
If you like my work and want to make my day, I only ask that you share my art and stories with someone who might enjoy them :)
Or trick your gullible friend for a minute. That's also a good one.

Show your work off, talk about what your happy with, the end results your proud of, talk about how you grew and what you learned in the process and most of all just say you think you did grate with something if you feel it. You being happy with your work is healthy and you should show that as well.
One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.

You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!
