The restored website will have...

I worked on these mostly Snaiad-related sketches over the weekend.
The owl-eyed monstrosity was ultimately rejected, but perhaps it can come back.
Here it is, as a gift to my two new patrons. I had painted this back in 2017, inspired by the forest graveyards of the "Yörük" nomads in Southwestern Turkey.

A fun discussion where I examine Göbeklitepe, one of the oldest human-built structures on the planet. I question whether this site was the “birthplace of civilisation”, as popularly claimed; or the site of a bloody death cult that fostered tribalism and humanity’s supremacy over nature.

A recently-discovered fossil animal, Eretmorhipis, strangely looks like one of the creatures designed for Snaiad in 2008. I guess this time, Snaiad wasn't "alien" enough :)

This is what I'm working on, most of these days...
