2 work in progress sketch poses of my original character Vania she has long silky gradient darker pink hair, brown skin, pink eyes with heart pupils and a little horn between her forehead. She loves to wear white so she’s in a small flowy white off the shoulder top and underwear.

It has been so much fun to draw my OCs again, and especially on stream getting to see how many people love Vania really makes me so happy and proud to have created such a Character 😭 I can’t wait to draw more so many more soon!!

Illustration of Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein from Netflix. A homage illustrating Elizabeth in her wedding dress hovering above The Creature gently caressing his face as he looks up at her in tears as he holds the maple leaf for her. Surrounded by warm light, butterflies and branches with a backlight of the symbolic window from Victor’s lab shines behind them. Framed in a hand painted golden border featuring Maple leaves and the head of Medusa above all. #FuckAi

My homage to @realgdt.bsky.social’s Frankenstein. I cannot thank you enough for the gift of Mary Shelley’s work through your eyes.

“Don't write or draw for money. Do it because you love it...” I mean, yeah. Obviously we enjoy doing it, otherwise we wouldn't BE doing. That said, it'd be cool being paid and supported enough to simply live as creatives, and in turn, have the freedom to create wild new things without restraint.

quick messy sketch idea of one of my ocs Vania. She’s a single horned succubus staring at the camera as if she’s taking a selfie

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

hey, uh, y'all *do* know that chatgpt *is* generative ai, too, right? it's not just art. gen-ai is not just stealing & scraping the internet for art, it is *also* stealing & scraping the internet for all types of written word.

you cannot be anti gen-ai and still use chatgpt. all gen-ai is harmful.

Close up shot of The Creature’s face surrounded by Elizabeth’s loving hands. We see his eyes watering staring up to her and all his intricate markings of how he was created. And of course, a peek of a maple leaf

Close up shot of Elizabeth looking down at the creature looking sad but lovingly. She’s engulfed in the warm light of the intricate window behind her adorned in her jewelry and wedding gown.

That’s such a lovely compliment, the way Guillermo’s mind works and how he sees the world is always perfectly beautiful yet haunting so I’m glad I could at least try to capture the same feel!

Any other artists that struggle with chronic pain / illness how do you even keep up with art ? I feel like all of last year and the beginning of this year has been so difficult 🥺

Fighting the medical system and trying to find the energy to do what you love is feeling impossible rn

being an artist is just decades of going "ugh I wish I knew how to draw" over and over again until you die
