Our first monster this month is a zombie frog, controlled by the Frog Necromancer! Where is it going? Are there more?? What is its unholy mission? Can we eat them?
I had hoped to have the other minions from the Sunken Dungeon Denizen poster ready as well, but the month is still young! I am still mis...

We are back from Dragoncon! It was awesome and inspiring, and I have returned with refocused goals, maniacal plans and burning obsessions! And today I'd like to share them all with you in this Monster of the Month Update post.
First, Dragoncon was incredible and we had such a good show!
We are back from Dragoncon!! It was an awesome show with a lot of great energy and amazing people. We had a blast meeting and hanging out with a lot of you who were there and who came out to our panels. Annie and I both really excited to dive back into painting, especially with Halloween almost upon ...

Dragoncon is just a few days away, and we have been busy boxing, packing, panicking and getting ready for setup! So I thought it was high time for some previews! For the next 3 days I will be doing daily posts of the new originals I will be bringing to the show. I will also post some pictures...

We did a ton of Martian sketches, a poll, some full color characters, released a new brush setโฆ aaaand then a huge storm came through and smashed our house with a tree. (5 trees actually...) We were just outside on the porch watching the storm roll in under a greenish sky and saw...

Quick report from the road!: As I mentioned last week on Discord, I have been away on vacation doing some on-location drawing. Today I wanted to share a few shots from the last leg of our trip, where we have found all the hoofed mammal reference an artist could ever possibly ask for.

Yesterday we did a brief Ted Talk going over some of the issues with AI generated art, and how artists should respond to it.
As promised, here is the VOD for any of you who missed it!
Quick post today because May is going to be a month of pure chaos. (I can't explain why, I am NDA'd on an amazing project which I can't wait to share with you later this summer!) While the posts may be a bit lighter, I am still planning on livestreaming on Twitch this month on our usual Wednesday 10A...

Well folks, it's been fun, but as you can see, art is a losing game and anyway my illustration career has clearly reached its dismal and inevitable end. But we still need money here, so WE ARE CHANGING THIS PATREON TO DOG POSTS ONLY.

We are kicking off 2023 with this cuddly fellow! "The Were-Bear". Definitely not to be confused with a Care Bear, the Were-Bear is less known for friendship and kindness, and more known for mauling and horrible rage. Still, he is fluffy and probably gives good hugs.
With him I also have a...
