A bit late to be sharing, but my son wanted to be a Fortnite-inspired Doctor Doom for Halloween, and I spent more or less every waking moment for a week working on that costume in one way or another. First, a concept drawing: The fabric available in town was olive green so I did the concept in olive and darker green trim, but Indy wanted gold trim, which was going to look terrible with the olive, so I went to Dublin to search for a darker green fabric, and came…
Because there’s a huge amount of stress going on this week, I’ve decided to set my very funny paranormal romance, SOMEBUNNY TO LOVE, free on Amazon Kindle through November 6th (affiliate link). Hop-fully it’ll give you something to read while you stand in line to vote, or if you just need to unplug and find yourself stuck into a guaranteed hoppily-ever-after for a while.

I’ve been drawing just enough now to remember that I think I could be pretty good at this if I practiced a great deal more. It’s inspired me to, well.

But yesterday I got to get started on it, and… I’ve talked often about how I tend to get to the 1/3rd mark in any book, no matter how long, and hit a wall that I have…
It struck me recently that I could do sketching during gaming and other zoom calls that weren’t Art Zoom (which i haven’t been to in ages, mea culpa), so this is a little art dump of stuff I’ve done…pretty recently. The face/head was very difficult on this one, but overall I’m kind of pleased with it. Adorka stock photography model for both this and the next one. I’m…less pleased with this one, but the hair and shoulders are pretty good, I think. This one the model kindly complimented me on…
