reblogging to my other art account :)

Hey if anyone is in Michigan and wants to check out a cool writer's and author's expo, Realm Makers is happening July 18-20, 2025 in Grand Rapids :) Day tickets for the expo start at $25.

I'll be at table 808A!

Come find me and the limited edition artbook, prints, pins, and a special softcover of Greenhorn Trail that has both the prologue (which you can read here) and chapter 1, which won't release until August!

I also have the softcovers, the standard artbook, and pins available online :) Follow the links in my LinkTree!

is your horse, kin, from that comic, perhaps buck from the hit 2004 animated film home on the range?

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

You know, that's pretty close. The drama, the enthusiasm, the shadowboxing. They'd be two peas in a pod.

Wrapped up this commission recently :)

i just need you to know that i've had to learn so many more horse specifics for a book im drawing and your blog has been SPECTACULARLY helpful; the character is specifically riding a quarter horse which are so specific and most people i find who draw horses have just kinda Stock Horse Type, or only have Big, Normal, Small, rather than specifics. THANK YOU AGAIN for all your horse drawings and guides!!!

Aw yay that's so great to hear! I love me my quarter horses ahahha

And no prob :) Drawing horses is my jam so I'll never stop

A recent commission for @kingsneak :)

His nickname at the ranch is "Fight Club" 😭 🙄

Like, buddy, bring some of that fight to the squirrels how about. Though, it's interesting - I've seen this same thing before in other Hollywood Dunnit line horses: high emotional intelligence/ connection with people + big emotional responses to other horses or "threats".

Basically, big feelings all the time. Which makes him so fun to work with because he gets stuff figured out really fast, but also he's dramatic af about everything.

reblogging my art book to here :)

Preorders for the Sky Cowboys artbook are open!

These are a little different than the Kickstarter version - They're a lovely standard hardcover, but don't include the Kickstarter-exclusive features like the book mark, dust jacket, or cloth binding. The content is all the same, though 🙂

They'll ship after all of the KS orders have been fulfilled.
