I started replaying FFvi and listening to the Adventure Zone again. It had to be done.

Last weekend, my piece was in the art auction at the Silver Millennium Masquerade Ball in Albany, NY. When I was coming up with my concept, I wanted to combine my two favorite things: Sailor Moon and Art Deco travel posters. I had so much fun making this.

Any game that has musically-gifted ghost animals for me to draw is alright with me!

Fever Dream by Lydia Guadagnoli

This is my piece for the Light Grey Art Lab Midnight Show. You can purchase prints and check out the other amazing works here!  

“Awhile ago I had the flu along with a high fever. I managed to drift off to sleep and found myself in a chaotic dream where I was staring down into a pond with koi fish swimming in it. After some time I began to notice the patterns on the koi fish were beginning to depict familiar silhouettes such as flowers and animals. But the one that stuck out to me the most was a very graphic skull. I was so startled that I woke up and couldn't fall back asleep for the rest of the night.”

100 Weird Birds

Hey friends, I fell behind on posting a weird bird a day on tumblr, so here are some of them in one big post.

100 Weird Birds: Day 16

The Hooded Warbler lives in eastern North America. They nest in low areas of bush in woodlands. Hooded Warblers are often the victim of brood parasitism by the brown-headed cowbird. This means that a cowbird will lay an egg in a warbler nest and the warbler will raise the chick as if it were its own.

100 Weird Birds: Day 15

Day 15: The Little Green Bee-eater for my 100 Weird Birds project. This bird is prone to seasonal movements and is widely distributed across Africa and Asia. Green Bee-eaters are not morning birds as they are somewhat sluggish and huddle in groups to block out sunlight from their faces.

100 Weird Birds: Day 10

The Long-tailed Bushtit for day 10 of my 100 Weird Birds project. The Long-tailed is a common bird found in Europe and Asia and can live in a variety of climates. When building nests, a bird with a failed or broken nest will move in with another couple and become their “helper” when raising chicks.
