Two surreal demons

Created for a production-related commission by generous patron D. S.; each is done with acrylics on leather-workers' paper, 30 cm. high.

Please let me know if you want me to illustrate your aliens ...

Iridescent cute "troll" girl

Commissioned by generous patron J. B. R., a pretty and energetic "troll" character who is more insectile than human beneath her skin. Please let me know if you want me to illustrate your own unique characters!
