An illustration of two elven men cuddling in a messy bed. The smaller man on the right, sleeps on his side with an arm under the pillows and the other rests loosely with his hand underneath his head. He has tan skin and long red hair, he wears gold hoop earrings with blue gems and red tastles at the ends. His right arm is covered with golden birthmarks that cross over his back and along his bottom lip and chin. His long hair lies loosely around him. He’s being held by a larger man behind him, who wraps his arms around his waist, pulling him close. He is older, and has half black/half pale gray skin and hair. He buries his face into the back of the other man's neck, smiling to himself in his sleep. He has medium-length wavy hair in a mullet style, a lot of body hair, and deer horns that sprout from his forehead. A wavy, abstract-style tattoo can be seen on his left arm. The scene takes place in a bedroom, where the morning sun just barely peeks in to the right. There is a JJJ logo in the bottom left, dated 2026, and the handle JacqJohnsonArt is typed underneath.

Sometime after the fall, when they can finally rest. 🌓✨
One of my new favorites of these two. I'm so proud of it!

Review of Black Gold by Tony C Scott on Amazon Title: Bravery at 60 degrees north Review: Rollicking swaggering audacious delight - from the very first page when I realised that it wasn't a dismembered *fish* we were talking about. In fact pretty much the whole way through, it was gobsmacked joy at the absolute nerve of the writer "did he actually just do that?". There are magnificent set pieces deftly handled; the locations true to life; the characters are engaging and the dialogue pitch-perfect. And if the bad men are killed a little more than is really necessary - well that's all to the good, isn't it? Do the job properly, after all - as the man says "God save me from f****** amateurs".

Look what you're missing.

I spent wayyyyyy too long making them yesterday, but it’s worth it because they have me giggling and kicking my feet. LOOK AT EM 😭🧡

It's called #BlackGold for a reason... 🛢️

An illustration of two characters embracing in a low-lit bar scene, where glasses hang from a rack on the ceiling and two wooden cups sit on the bar behind them. On the right, an older shadow elf man presses his forehead into the forehead of a younger high elf, both of them are smiling, and the younger man is crying tears of joy. The high elf has one of his hands in the other's hair, caressing his jaw, while the shadow elf wraps a hand around his waist. The high elf has long red hair tied into a long ponytail, yellow/orange eyes, and golden birthmarks (like veins) that travel from his bottom lip across his chest and across his right arm. He is wearing a golden breastplate and gauntlets, which show off his muscular arms. He has many golden accessories, such as gold bands on his biceps and golden hoop earrings that end in a blue gemstone and red tassels. The shadow elf has half-white half-black hair, which in this illustration, fades from white to black from the front of his face to the back- As if he is illuminated by the other man. His skin also fades darker, from light gray to very dark. He has dark gray antlers, big ears adorned with silver jewelry, and wears black spiked pauldrons, a black cloak and waist wrap that reveals his chest and stomach. The scene is intimate, showing a slight golden glow illuminating between them. In the bottom right hand corner is a JJJ signature dated 2026, with the handle JacqJohnsonArt typed underneath.

"Though the last time we were around each other, I found myself hesitating, But I know I would not now, my love."
Denizen and Prosperity the night before the fall, their reunion. 🌓✨

A digital pin-up illustration inspired by Hudson William's photoshoot for Wonderland Magazine, of a beautiful elf man with long red hair being undressed by many magical green hands. He has yellow/orange glowing eyes and golden birthmarks (like veins) that travel from his bottom lip across his chest and over his right arm and from his torso down his left leg. He has dangling golden hoop earrings with a blue gem and red tassels. The clothes being taken off of him are a pair of black pants with golden buttons, various multicolored fabrics around his waist, and a black vest. He smirks confidently while looking to the side. In the bottom left-hand corner is a JJJ logo, dated 2026, and has the handle JacqJohnsonArt typed underneath.

Everyone wants a little Prosperity... 🧡✨
Another pinup featuring some magical hands! Wonder who's spell that would be... haha
