My friend @gooseberry_cheese and I decided to tackle inktober together this year. The prompt list we're using is the Creature Feature list and he took the odds while I took the evens. So this is my first inktober entry for this month. I'm excited for the next prompt :D . . . #inktober #barnowl #owl #bird #gingko #gingkoleaves #plant #whiteink #blackpaper #creaturefeature https://www.instagram.com/p/CF2hxSSHGD5/?igshid=196uvl3pxkgwr

I just realized, I never posted this drawing. I did this as a gift for a friend. She was having a bad day and so I drew this to cheer her up. She now uses it as her desktop wallpaper which is pretty cool! . . . #digital #digitalart #digitalpainting #art #wolf #space #nebula #blackwolf #blueeyes #painttoolsai #desktopwallpaper #desktopbackground #gift https://www.instagram.com/p/CEQvW-annZO/?igshid=da2nolfggfju

So I was browsing the art of one of the artists I pull a lot of inspiration from and decided to take some of the realism I've been practicing and apply it to a character or creature of mine and this was the result. I'm actually really happy with it and surprised I could even pull something like this off... I just wish the details showed up better without having to zoom in lol . . . #digital #digitalart #creature #creaturedesign #character #characterdesign #OCs #originalcharacter #painttoolsai #creepy #eyes #blindlion https://www.instagram.com/p/CEQrYgEH7MS/?igshid=ni8ey3pi2jfa

I did an art trade with PinkishHue#9932 on discord. The first drawing is what I did of their character, and the second is what they did of my character. . . . #arttrade #digital #digitalart #sticker #characters #originalcharacters #OC #OCs #painttoolsai https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFRoH-HYZH/?igshid=1wf0quj3bldm1

I've been working on backgrounds and putting my creatures into those backgrounds. So here's a drawing of my alien dinosaur thing that I keep drawing lol . . . #different #dinosaur #aliendinosaur #alien #aliencreature #creature #creaturedesign #character #originalcharacter #OC #characterdesign #worldbuilding #digital #digitalart #painttoolsai #background #redwoods https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFQ9NQH100/?igshid=3p8ffxuqtmuv

I got a new tattoo on Sunday that I kept forgetting to post a picture of lol This time it wasn't so nerve racking as my first tattoo and I am really happy with how it turned out. Thanks @scr8pn, I'm definitely coming in for more tattoos in the future 😋 . . . #tattoo #crow #runes #svartr #valknut #infinitetattooandartgallery (at Infinite Tattoo & Art Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFPu86HQHm/?igshid=kqgnxk5231yq

So this came from a doodling session with one of my online friends. We were trying to think of what to draw and my friend started drawing a gallimimus and saying that it should be chunky. He was only making the body chunky, so I told him that he had to go all out if he wanted to make the galli actually look chunky. So I made his neck thick as well as his body and then I decided to finish the sketch and put it on redbubble as a Tshirt with my chunky porpoise lol Also, he's got one of those number one foam gloves that says, "Theri" on it because he was cheering on a therizinosaurus that was fighting a t-rex . . . #dinosaur #gallimimus #chunky #digital #digitalart #digitalillustration #dinosaurart #theisle #theislegallimimus #chips #messy #therizinosaurus #tyrannosaurusrex https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFO1H0nxbA/?igshid=1v0caflu2d0ws

On a trip with my family to help my grandma with a yard sale. Brought a sketchbook and my Prismacolor pencils so I could draw and I ended up just drawing more of my character lol sorry. I did put him in a snazzy tailcoat though because at one point I joked about sculpting my character, dressing him up and taking him to prom. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDFJ6z4FwiJ/?igshid=cvcqln7v33yo

I've still got some art to do for people, but I decided to take a quick break to draw my character I had almost forgotten about. Feels like it's been a bit since I drew something for myself. I love this guy so much, he's so weird and I relate to that lmao . . . #originalcharacters #ocs #aliencreature #creature #alien #creaturedesign #characterart #characterdesign #facialexpressions #practice #refrencesheet #Different #digitalart #digital https://www.instagram.com/p/CC0IwXVnqrs/?igshid=5uvutkjpit38

I've been doing a lot of these headshots for people lately so here's 2 more. I've been trying to get these done in between finishing the bedroom downstairs lol Funny story with the duck drawing. Some random person who asked me for advice recently thought I drew the duck for them for free. Apparently they thought since they liked ducks and I had talked to them they were entitled to free art from me. I've never had that happen before. I very frustratedly told them it wasn't for them but for someone else who also liked duck and it seemed like they were embarrassed by their mistake. Damn right you should be embarrassed, my art is not free for you just because you talked to me once 😊 . . . #digitalart #digital #art #artgiveaway #commissions #kingsnake #snake #duck #woodduck #idontdofreeart #headshots #cosmo https://www.instagram.com/p/CC0IEzRHnQI/?igshid=tewroh5p71un

I sculpted this guy last week but finally got around to taking some better pictures of him finished. I made myself a custom Kaiju based on the salamander I saw in california. Imagine this guy traveling via the ocean and laying waste to cities, leaving a toxic slime trail in its wake. I would love to see something like this in another Pacific Rim movie or something. . . . #sculpture #sculpey #kaiju #pacificrim #salamander #dragonheadcaterpillar #crocodile #creaturedesign #creatureart #art #creature #alien #aliencreature https://www.instagram.com/p/CCc_jxJHtxB/?igshid=ba78ubvn2mh7

I did a short art giveaway the other day in the hopes that I could get more people interested in getting art from me. Three winners were chosen at random and I drew these three pieces for them. The first 2 are original characters and the last was the winner's bearded dragon, so I decided to draw her as she was instead of drawing her cartoony like the others. I am actually really happy with how these all turned out! And the winners were all very happy with their art. 😊 My hand hurts a lot. My poor fingers really took a beating today, I've been drawing almost non-stop all day and I still have more to do tomorrow! . . . #originalcharacters #characterart #painttoolsai #painttoolsaiart #beardeddragon #alien #aliencreature #creatureart #plush #allosaurus #digital #art #digitalart #digitalillustration #artgiveaway #headshots https://www.instagram.com/p/CCc-1Unnpbt/?igshid=1w100m7ocqjxq
