An impressionistic drawing. It depicts a dark figure in a white stone mask thinking only of emptiness and nothing. Behind them is beauty.
My latest. Maybe I should start titling these.

I really like the show Trollhunters.
Have a good one!

What’s your favorite GDT film? Mine’s Hellboy 2. The nonstop creativity of that movie continues to delight me.
I just rewatched Blade II last week. Haven’t seen it in a long time. That movie rules. Most scenes either set up the cool shit you’re about to see. Others explain the cool shit you just saw. And everything in between is cool shit.
A picture of a ghastly face that appears to have been carved into darkness. The inside of the big eyes and big mouth is blue. It’s meant to be a ghoulish twist on a Jack-o-Lantern. The space around the face is meant to look marbled. But doesn’t. I tried.
Don’t limit the art you create. I’m a writer, not a visual artist. But the drawing I’ve done these last few days has opened up space in my brain. And my writing is getting better.
Branch out. Have fun. Make art.

A painting of a person in profile on paper. It is white and purple and black and seems to be in the process of taking form. It was done by Clive Barker.
“What matters is there’s something in you which is unique to you…Not being the next Clive Barker, not being the next Stephen King, not being the next Steven Spielberg…what matters is being the next whoever you are. The only whoever you are.” - Clive Barker

A pen and marker sketch of Batman. He is mostly blue and black with white eyes.
Last sketch for this morning…
Had an itch to draw Batman.

If you watch the new HP show you're actively funding JK's hate campaign which is furthering the genocide of trans people, especially in the UK. And yes, we are under an alert for genocide because of it. The shift is clear to see; bigots feel emboldened to spew hate and send death threats to trans-
A sketch of a humanoid figure in front of an expressionistic brick wall. They have a wide hat, a long jacket that could be wings, and a blue outline that ripples like magic.
More art…
This one has a name. But they won’t tell me.

Sam Kieth showed me there are no limits to what a comic artist can be. Don't try to fit into a mold. Draw how you draw. RIP to one of a kind.
The publishing playing field isn't level, and we have to stop pretending it's a meritocracy when it so clearly isn't.
Only way to redress that even a little, is to uplift the work of afab, queer, and PoC writers.
Read wider and discover a world out there that is vast and strange and beautiful.
An illustration of a feminine shadow figure that may be alien walking through a dungeon with hints of technology. They have a lantern. At the end of the corridor is a tank with a creature inside.
An exaggerated illustration of a male human who is vomiting up a black tentacle while his hand transforms and stress lines radiate from him.
As part of my attempt to make creativity the center of my life, I’ve started drawing to relax.
Reminding myself that art isn’t about perfection, I followed the whimsy and don’t hate what I’ve made.

Glad I’m not alone. Thanks for sharing!
The corporatization of independent art makes my guts mad.

Ruth Hallensleben - Along the Bodensee at Mainau, Germany, 1961

I once wrote a story where outer space itself spit an asteroid at Earth to kill it. And the night sky became an angry face made out of stars.
It was neat. Even got published. Not bad.
