For some reason yesterday it seemed really important to draw naked kissing instead of getting any actual work done. But look! I drew her hands totally without reference. Actually I drew most of this without photo reference (I did use ref for his head angle), which means it took me hours (this sketch is my third attempt) but I think it was time well spent because I learned a few things :)

Artwork to kick off 2025! I did this piece for a friend in celebration of her getting a literary agent for her YA fantasy novel. She gave me a few concept options. "Let's do the one with the moths!" I said. "I can use them as a design element. It'll be fun," I also said. Ask me how long it took to draw and render all the fucking moths 😅

Dropping by to say how excited I am for your mermay piece(s--if I'm lucky). All of your art is such a delight from lines to finish. Facial expressions and braid details are always perfection! 💕💕💕 It's a joy every time you show up on my dashboard.
Wow, what a lovely comment to wake up to! This makes my day. Thank you so much! ❤️🥰 (It takes flipping forever to get facial expressions right, so I'm glad the work is appreciated!)

I didn't discover these books until way past my teens (nicotine habit already acquired and later broken, with effort) but they changed my brain chemistry. You're not wrong about the monsterfucking
Re reading the Modern Faerie tales at 30, last time I read them, I was 14:
Tithe: awwwe this book influenced me so much. I had rats as pets through HS and early 20s cause Kaye had them and i thought Kaye was cool. Thanks for the nicotine addiction btw
Valiant: so thats where the interest in monster fucking started.

Some bookish artists got together for an April Fool's joke where everybody had to draw the 'Spiderman upside-down kiss' pose featuring their favourite book characters or OCs. I signed up for playful Kaye and long-suffering Roiben (but he loves it really, even though he's got a sticky nose now 🍭)

Don't stake me darling This may be one of the more ridiculous things I've drawn. Apparently I can't do vampires without melodrama (and bats). I wanted to see what would happen if I did all the colour digitally, and it's a bit more garish than my usual but I don't hate it
