I forgot about the internet again. 💀

Anyway I realized I never posted any of the paintings I did for the 20th anniversary edition of GRRM's 'A Clash of Kings'. I did 26 paintings in 6 months and spent the next few months playing Animal Crossing New Leaf hahahah

These are the two of Daenerys and her dragons.

At the request of @sweetnyss-sketching : it's Frankie! She is helping.

Am I back? Maybe!

Your art is cool, do you hava any other blogs where I can follow you? like twitter or Devianart?

Thanks!  Yes, I do, though I’m not very active on any of them at the moment.  I’m really busy illustrating George R.R. Martin’s 20th Anniversary CLASH OF KINGS (the 2nd Game of Thrones book) and don’t have any time for personal art until it’s finished, and I’ve never been great with social media upkeep in the first place.  :x In any case!Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenkcannonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/navateInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/navate/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/navateDA (don’t update much): https://www.deviantart.com/navate

The Longest Night. Done for the Hellebore Collective for the winter solstice. Will Tumblr flag this? Probably. I'm still on the fence about whether to keep posting here.

I had a hell of a week (a funeral, a migraine, and elections), and fell behind on work again. I'm feeling better today though, so here is another finished detail shot of my personal piece 'Crescent', which I will be releasing in full shortly along with some process images

Time doesn’t heal all wounds. Some are too deep, too enduring, too painful to ever leave you.

Is there a reason you don't use society6 much?

I honestly forgot I had an account there. I never made sales, and I disliked the limitations (design & quality control).  I’ve since opened my own store at http://navate.storenvy.com/”>Storenvy that is kept up to date, if you’re looking to purchase prints. :)

Your Tumblr is awesome! Plus, your Carmilla is sooooo beautiful. I keep going back to look at her. Will draw more of her in the future?

Thank you!  I don’t have any plans to paint Carmilla again; I’m focusing on my own characters and designs for the most part. :)

Hi! I wanted to thank you for the content you put out. I first found you years ago when you put out that skin tutorial on deviantart, and it changed the way I paint. I’m glad you have a patreon so I can support your work there! Have a nice day 😄

Thank you so much!  

I hope soon I have the time to get back into creating tutorials; I do miss them.

Detail of my latest personal piece, Crescent. It took a surprising turn at the end but I'm so happy with the result. The full painting is currently a Patreon exclusive until I have time to format prints and put together step-by-step images etc for it. I'm swamped right now!

[laurenkcannon]

My first Month of Fear piece! I had a lot of fun doing this, between the textures and the spooky gothic lady. The dress is inspired by I Do Declare's amazing designs. See my Patreon for process images.

Belly rolls! WIP detail. I'm saving all the layers for this piece (something I never do) and will have the .PSD file available to all my backers on Patreon once this painting is finished. :)

[laurenkcannon]

WIP detail. I am loving how this one is turning out. You can see the full image on my Patreon, and once it's finished I'll be giving a fully layered PSD to all Patrons.

WIP detail. This painting is taking a long time, but I love how well the background turned out.
