👋🏼 Greetings, traveller!
📖 I'm a book wyrm, full time on another planet!
🐉Favourites to draw are creatures, plants, and fun weird things!
⭐️ Collaborations welcome!
🎨 Website in bio!
An elegant women with deep purple skin and white web-like hair. An interpretation of Lolth, the Spider Queen. She wears a black and red gown adorned with spider-web lace. With a spindly, hooked dark crown on her head she lounges on a velvet couch. Her upturned nose breathes in the scent of a hot cup of tea in her hand. Her wicked smile and deep red eyes are focused on a point off to one side. A rich brown table, covered in cobwebs, holds the rest of her afternoon tea set up - A cute spotted tea pot and some jam sandwiches. The environment looks a little too cosy and delightful for the Queen the be in. Perhaps she's simply visiting her next victim. The image of Krampus wrapped in a central circular design. He crouches over menacingly, tongue lashing out, horns tall and curved slightly. Burning coals for eyes, he looks down at the wall of white handprints painted below him. He curves his birch branch whip above him, passively. The style is shaded almost like a cave painting with dotted shading. The line art is white on a contrasted dark red background. A colourful, smooth, sweet design of a sassy and proud to be themselves tree! Their curves are unapolagetic and the cheeky smile matches the rosy cheeks! Adorned with multicoloured leaves and flowers the colours of the pride flags. This gorgeous gorgeous tree knows they're slaying! Next to the image is a catchphrase "Yggra-still here, still queer!" A play on the name of the world tree in Nordic mythology 'Yggdrasil'. Title: "BRAIN FOG" Subtitle: "Motion-Sickness Mania" This character art is in the style of a classic vintage comic book, I play a young woman in our game of 'Masks: A New Generation' RPG. Brain Fog, as she is called by the public, is a mutant experimenting with her psychic powers on lab rats, to later thwart terrorising vampires with horrid nausea! The ground beneath her enemies spins while they're under the influence of her sickening power, they see everything doubled and they feel her phantom fire! When there's an oil slick in your eyes you know Brain Fog is nearby! Her eyes are covered with a tasselled veil. Waves of fabric adorn her shoulders while the rest of her mauve and tan outfit is well put together, functional and sits tightly, ready for for a fight! Her black hair tied back in a pony tail, her army of rats run after her as she is in motion, casting her psychic oil-slicked energy behind her, making her appear nauseatingly blurry to her enemies. The power from her hand taking the form of an eel. In response to the subtitle, she also says "Yeah... I have that effect on people." The background is a mix of tasteful muted colours, pink, yellow and cyan, with a lantern held by a chain subtly in the background. An in-game reference to something from her backstory. This is listed as Issue #1 for 95 pence, inspired by the many loveable comic book covers.

Alas! Nearing the end of the year now, once more I present my Art vs Artist of 2025! 🎨

It's tough to divide the attention between all my interests at once, but somehow I find the time! 🎉

Have a splendidly restful holiday everyone! 🎄
A selfie of myself in the middle, surrounded by my favourite works of 2025 including: King Kiwi, a portrait of my friend's dog. Watering can with flowers coming out of it. An illustration of a creature design I named Mors per Picem. Character design for a new RPG system I started playing, her name is Skuld, the Danse Macabre. A piece called Muscida, displaying a bear skull with gold leaf around it. Muad'Dib, a small illustration of the hopping mouse from Dune. Thurisaz, an illustration from my runic series, a rune for thorns. And lastly, the sketch portrait of the Mors per Picem creature when I was still designing his head.

Muad'Dib 🐭
A delicate weekend drawing exercise! 🏜
Dune's own kangaroo mouse delicately posed in front of a crescent moon. Beautiful black eyes and poised fluffy tail, tiny hands with large feet and large pink ears! Perfect for a desert dweller.

The Danse Macabre 💀

Character design of mine for our Beacon mini-campaign!

I'm playing a Lifeweaver Elemental of life & death, seemed fitting for this time of year! 🕸
A vision of black and white, the everflowing dancer stares down at her foe through the stolen clay mask. Pale garments trail behind her as she grins with understanding that she has won. She wears cuffs of black metal, the skin that shows is cracked like drying earth, she beholds 3 other masks similar to the one she wears now. Her eyes, like brightest stars, display the promise that a bargain will be struck this day, or your life is theirs to dance to. Momento Mori, Momento Vivere. The Danse Macabre.

The pose of a dancer with wonderful flowing attire. A veil over her head and a mask over her face holding a very cheeky grin. Her skin resembles cracked clay.

I finally figured out what was wrong with my tablet and managed to get back to drawing! 😭 The way I turned shrimp so fast!

Anyway, here's a light sketch of my new character!
Sketch/line work of a dancing woman, mask affixed to her face in a cheeky grin. Clothes flowing behind her. Hands gracefully outstretched.

Everyone may be familiar with Merida from Pixar's Brave. During a 2022 drawing competition, one of the prompts was to draw the hero as the villain. I chose my favourite Pixar movie, Brave! So here we have an angry looking Merida in a "what-if" world where she never broke the curse, so is out to hunt down the witch that she blames for this curse. Her unique outfit looks somewhat dishevelled and darker, long ginger hair unruly and wild, the bow always at the ready.

Oh hello #Portfolioday! Here’s some of the stuff I’ve done:
Digital drawing of a winged veiled woman using one of its wings to partially cover a horned child from the light above them both. Shades of brown hints of teal. Digital painting base on a sculpture angel by Lorenzo Bernini bastardized. The head of the angel is now two blooming flowers obscured by a sketchy pink neon skull, complete with horns and halo. The background is textured with a non repeating pattern resembling a script. Digital portrait of a masked woman. Tones of pink, grey and yellow. Large coiled snake bares its fangs in the foreground. Digital drawing of a white barn own standing on a plinth with a mutated mouse in its talons

QRP with your yellow art! ⭐️
Adrift in the clouds kissed with a golden sunrise, a figure floats. A lush, green eco-system graces their entire body with trees, rivers and birds. Laid back and dormant, their arm reaches up into two parallel suns. One bright orange, the other pure blue. The suns are being absorbed into the entity as if it were life's first breath. This is Ymir. The birth of Midgard.
