Fireball Hello guys, this is one of the illustrations I did for the new D&D player's handbook! It was fun to explore how to paint such strong color harmony. Until next time, guys, enjoy! @Wizards_DnD @DnDBeyond #dungeonsanddragons

Wanted to share this amazing essay from artist Dave Palumbo. Who btw is an incredible artist so he definitely knows what he’s talking about! So well written, and I agree so much with this. Worth a read: muddycolors.com/2024/04/the-…

If enforcing gender norms requires a constant state of surveillance and censorship then they probably aren't as biological or innate as you think they are

The common theme in all of the struggles currently happening in creative industries is that we are ruled by greedy, uncreative people whose only life goal is to be as wealthy as possible. I mean, that's probably always been the case, but it feels especially stark right now.

A fun thing about generative AI discourse is when ai advocates claim aggrieved artists don’t know how the tech works. But when you ask ai advocates how it works, some anthropomorphized nonsense like “It LEaRnS aNd Is InSpIrEd JuSt LiKe YoU” always creeps up. It’s embarrassing.

Finished my DnD character from lockdown campaign! Chee the Kenku Bard. She's supposed to be a white Jackdaw but ended up looking a bit pigeon-ey. Painting is hard 🥲

I only want art made by human beings and I want those human beings to be paid well and stoked about living their dream

Americans: I use miles and pounds Europeans: I use kilometres and kilograms Canadians: [snorting a line of assorted measuring systems] I'm 5'3, I weigh 150lbs, horses weigh 1000kgs, my house is an hour away and I drive 80 km/h to get there, I need a cup of flour and 1L of milk

#skillnottalent One of the first images I did five years ago for my D&D campaign, and one of the latest, as a commission piece. Just keep doing your thing. Progress will come. Enjoy the journey. #ArtistOnTwitter #dnd #dndmaps

I finally had the chance to finish a painting for myself! For this month's fantasy lady I bring you an updated look on my very first D&D character that I used to play (who lives rent free in my mind as a very cool forest paladin🌿🌱)
