--Automaton Artist-- I don't remember exactly what prompted me to make this one, but I vaguely remember that this automaton lady was supposed to be an artist, with her multiple arms helping her work on multiple projects at a time. Something I wish I had sometimes! The things floating right by her are some of her tools, and the doodle off to the side is just - a random doodle, I guess, I can't remember what I was thinking of for that one.

-- Rain World - Unfortunate Development --

Rain World is a game where you run around as a small creature called a slugcat in a vast world where everything and its mom wants to eat you. It's both highly addicting (I've already put 30-something hours into the game myself) and highly challenging, and I've never felt so much mortal terror in a game before. And there's no area in the game that gives me quite as much stress as Unfortunate Development, a dark, dingy series of rooms full of weird cancerous wall-growths and their mobile equivalents, the Daddy Long Legs, all of which can insta-kill you, and all of which you have to parkour past in fluctuating zero gravity.

--Hollow Knight Pocket Siblings-- When I was coming up with ideas for my Hollow Knight speedpaint, I ended up doodling these things as a possible T-shirt design. I might use these as actual T-Shirt designs, too, if only because I think they're cute!

--Dragontaur Centipede Creature-- I like giving my creatures more limbs than really necessary sometimes - I'm not sure why, it's just something I love the look of. In this case, though, even I think no dragon-centaur creature needs THAT many legs!

--Oronae Design-- Remember the elflike beings from Lonely Reflection and Oronae Caverns? This is a design I doodled for an Oronae character with a more sagelike look. I'm thinking this one may be a leader of some kind, but other than that no ideas for her character yet.

--Dragonlike Humanoid-- A desert-dwelling, mask-wearing creature I drew during my first year of college. I like this design a lot so I'm probably going to try to revamp it at some point as an actual illustration!

--Random Creature Sketch-- I don't remember exactly what I was going for with this creature, but it's an interesting critter to be sure, so I decided to share it!

--DreamBlight Avatar First Draft-- When I first started doodling concepts for my avatar, I kept trying to make the mask look similar to my logo. While I ended up going with something a little more space-themed in the end, I still like this original sketch, and kept it around!

--Dragon Design--

A dragon concept!  Went for a sleek and streamlined look here, so I think I may have been going for at least an amphibious dragon, since that would make sense for a frequent swimmer.  There are also doodles of another random dragon's head in the bottom right corner.

--Marker Experimentation and Doodles--

First page from my sketchbook, here we go!  This is from a couple years back, when I was experimenting with a new set of artist's markers and seeing how I liked using them.  The amount of colors they have is limited, but I'm still pretty proud of how this particular doodle turned out.  The character I used is one of my original characters, and the pencil doodles are the same - the little furry creature is a pooka, or at least a first draft of one (semi inspired by the pooka design from The Spiderwick Chronicles) and a keen eye may notice that the boy in the bottom right resembles the one from my Shadows and Reflections Kelpie picture!

--Artemis Fowl Troll Concept Art--

The Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer were my favorite books when I was in middle school - and still are one of my favorite book series ever!  I mean, what's not to love about reading about a 12-15 year old criminal genius matching wits with fairies with laser guns, megalomaniac pixies, and more?  So I decided it was high time I drew something from the series, and ended up deciding on the trolls - big lumbering predators that usually live underground, but sometimes end up on the surface and cause havoc if not contained.  Originally I was going to go for a paler color scheme - since they live primarily underground it would make sense for them to have little to no pigment in their fur - but I ended up going with a more earthy one instead.  It just looks more interesting, and it still kind of makes sense, since the colors would let them blend into their environment down in the caves.

It's been a while since I've posted anything - so sorry about that!  Hopefully, the news I have now will make it up to anyone who wants to see more from my page.

   Firstly - I have a new art piece I will be posting later today, as well as a new speedpaint/art timelapse of it that will also be posted!  So you'll be getting something new and hopefully interesting to look at.  

Secondly - I've decided that since it takes me so long to get gallery pieces done, I'm going to start sharing sketches from my sketchbooks with you guys!  These will be anything from random doodles to character and creature concepts, plus maybe WIPs of pieces I do in the future.  I'll begin posting pictures of said sketches tomorrow, once I've got a page set up for them here!  I'll also be updating my personal website, so keep an eye out there too if you like!  I'll leave a link to it at the bottom of this post since it HAS been a while since I've shared it.

--Road Trip--

A bunch of anime felines go on a road trip!  This picture actually got a reward and went to auction at Nan Desu Kan, an anime convention I went to, and I'm still really hyped at it doing so well!

--Alicanto Sighting--

Alicantos are mythical birds from Chilean mythology that eat gold and silver and incorporate the metals into their feathers, and are said to either lead people to riches, or lead the greedy astray underground.  I wanted to try my hand at drawing a metal bird just for the aesthetics, and I really like how this ended up turning out - though I DID have some trouble with the gold veins in the walls.
