I'm available for art commissions all throughout August! Take a look at what you can get here. I'm always happy to draw your DnD or original characters, illustrate a story, create a book or album cover, Paint a watercolour to decorate your home!

If you want something that's outside my usual style or budget - don't hesitate to email me anyway, we can negotiate something that would fit the bill!

I was planing on making a small personal project with HOTD characters and Aemond was paired up with Daemon. But initially I got tired, but still managed to finish Aemond.

Thank you so much for commissioning me! I had such a pleasure working on your commission and with you as well!

♥️

By the way, there's a timelapse of this piece right here:

I won an office betting pool last week and my boss told me I was required to use the money to treat myself and, let me tell you, did I ever! I used it to have @valerisalo make me an amazing picture of my two most treasured Tolkien characters, Éomer and Théodred!

Anyone who knows anything about me knows how much I love these two, and to see them here in a quiet moment of cousin/brotherly companionship (and both rocking those House of Thengel dimples!) makes me so happy. Every time I ugly cry my way through the Fords of Isen chapter of Unfinished Tales now, I’m going to look at this and heal my heart!

I have never commissioned art before (even just that phrase kind of blows my mind because commissioning art sounds like such a Catherine de Medici move to me!) but Valeria is a lovely person and was absolutely amazing to work with! The whole process was fun—she sent me updates along the way so it was like unwrapping a gift in slow motion!—and she has a ton of beautiful examples of other work on her site if anyone else is in the market!

Thank you, Valeria! 🩵💛🩵💛

Way back in April, I was working on my piece for the Star Trek AOS @aosrenaissance zine. I'd originally planned a four-panel comic, but true to form I only managed to get the main, fourth panel painted in time. However, I did ink the other three, and here they are! Pulled out of my WIPs draw to finally get painted and finished soon, watch this space.

Inked with dip ink pen, Indian ink, and Pentel fude pigment extra fine brush pen on cold pressed paper, each approx A5 size

Today is my BIRTHDAY

Last year was sometimes pretty harsh, but it was full of different king of work. I obviously painted a lot and transformed my style a bit to achieve not only a pleasant and interesting visual, but also to make myself happier and feel more relaxed and confident while drawing.

The best gift for an artist is sharing their works, so feel free to share some of my works in previous posts or share this one with my favourite works!

You can also support me by donating via Buy me a coffee. I would truly appreciate it!

FINALLY, finally after two days of struggles with the idea and composition and characters, I've managed to sketch both Jim and Spock.

At first, I was gonna redraw one of Leyendecker's painting, but I wasn't quite sure that I wanted completely copy his idea, so I came up with this scene of Jim and Spock just casually talking. Spock is listening to Jim so attentively, because he loves his stories from the Academy or earlier times. He enjoys his company so much. I love them.

[valerisalo]

Behold, because I am finally drawing TOS Jim and Spock.

We all are gonna love this one. That's probably the first time I'm drawing them in an illustration.

Both Bones for TOS and AOS to SNW McCoy: 'Wait, kid how old are you?' SNW McCoy: 'Seventeen, sir.' Bones and Bones: 'Oh good, I'm seventeen now.'

I'm just like whenever they decide to get a Bones for SNW they better make sure that actor has blue eyes or people are going to lose their minds.

I guess I am once again opening my commissions.
