BEEF

High-contrast black and white ink illustration of a bust portrait. The figure wears a bucket hat and white-framed sunglasses reflecting small figures in each lens. Their face is covered in scratchy hand-drawn symbols — an 8-ball, tally marks, X’s, and crosses — with a jagged, bared-teeth grimace and ‘NIX’ lettered near the chin. Dagger-like marks and scrawled symbols run down the neck. A runic ‘JIMMO’ mark appears in the upper left corner, and partial lettering reading ‘BEE’ is visible on the sleeve.

Blue and gold illustration. A spiral vortex dominates a night sky, ringed by concentric black line work with a glowing yellow center. A trail of yellow eyes, each marked with an “O,” grows in size along the upper left, watching the spiral. Bottom left shows an industrial skyline of smokestacks in silhouette. Bottom right, a yellow-lined figure with spiked hair, a jagged scar down one cheek, and a cloak bearing a bat emblem and the letter “S” looks on. Signed “Jimmo” in the lower left corner.

…and a piece for the *new* book. #wip #artsky #blackandwhite

JIMMO@oldjimmo· Jul 11

last piece for the book I’m working on

Black-and-white ink and photo collage. A large clawed hand, rendered in loose ink linework, reaches down over a rain-streaked dark background. Below it, a vintage family photograph shows a group standing near water beside an old car, alongside a separate image of a soldier holding a child. A small horned or antlered figure with hanging beads appears in the upper right. Faint handwritten text reading “the olde nor—” is visible near the bottom, partially obscured. A second clawed hand appears in the lower right corner. Torn paper edges frame the composition.

reference material. also just a nice flower. Have a nice day. #artsky #islandsofno #blackandwhite

Black and white close-up photograph of an allium seed head — a dense, spherical cluster of small star-shaped florets on a thin stem, set against a dark, heavily blurred background of tree foliage with scattered light spots.

JIMMO@oldjimmo· Jul 7

Illustrated portrait of a figure with wind-swept blue and green hair, round green goggle lenses, and an open, shouting mouth. Lit in split red and green tones against black, with a speech bubble reading “THIS SHIT IS FUCKED.” The letters “No” mark the upper left corner.

big fella came around last night

Black and white ink illustration of a towering antlered, humanoid figure standing at the end of a quiet residential street at night. The figure’s face is dark with white outlined eyes and streaming tear-like lines running down its body. Swirling spiral cloud formations fill the sky above rooftops and bare trees, with a dark octagon shape (resembling a stop sign) floating among the clouds. Houses with lit windows sit at the edges of the road.

Hi, I’m an artist & writer. World-building across print, books, and objects. Thx for hosting 🖤

Black and white illustration of a large, hooded figure with a masked face, cradling a snarling rat image against its chest. The word “RATTUS” repeats across the figure’s midsection in overlapping text. Cryptic symbols appear on either side. A row of downward-pointing arrows lines the bottom. Text reads: “For dessert we have war cake.”

Black and white ink illustration titled “BOYD.” A massive dark figure with a mask-like face and wild hair walks across a rippling landscape at night. It carries a small human-like figure in one hand and a studded club in the other. A church steeple appears to the left, a deer stands in the distance to the right, and two crescent shapes curve through a starry sky above.

Black and white ink illustration titled “The Warden of Deep Cove.” A dark creature’s head emerges from a stippled expanse surrounded by large outlined flowers. Behind it, a narrow canyon opens onto a night sky with a full moon and stars. A dotted path leads from the canyon mouth toward the creature. Islands of No appears in the bottom right corner.

Dark, atmospheric ink illustration of a lone figure walking toward a large brutalist building topped with a cross. A single glowing doorway near the top casts thin beams of light down toward the figure, who stands within a small circle of light. A full moon hangs in the hazy night sky. Scattered dots suggest birds or debris drifting through the darkness.

Terrible Tonee. Tonee the hound.

Black and white illustration. Two ships on a dark horizon, dotted lines descending below the waterline to a submarine. Beneath it, a large scratchy face with hollow eyes and the words “FAT FISHES” on its chest, beside a mass of tangled white lines. Signed “jimmo.”

Imperial guard tower (Illustration for a new book)

A dark blue-toned illustration of a lone figure standing at the base of a large, looming building at night. A single bright window near the top casts beams of light down toward the figure, who stands in a small circle of light. A full moon glows in the upper sky. The scene is rendered in a hazy, textured style with scattered marks suggesting smoke or debris. A cross or antenna extends from the roofline. Signed “jimmo” in the lower right corner.

Almotta. seven decks, one problem.

A black and white architectural cross-section diagram of a multi-deck structure labelled “Almotta, Deep Cove, South Bird.” The building is partially submerged in black, with a loading dock at surface level, a lift shaft, and a transmission tower on the roof. Deck Seven at the base is marked with a crossed-out box labelled “B.” The image is printed on crumpled paper with heavy ink texturing.

Thx for the tag and hosting this #artshare! Happy VDay to all 🖤🖤 I’m Jimmo, love the occult, sci-fi and horror. Doing a thing—#12monsters for 2026. Feb is my girl Lil 🧛‍♀️🐍

A surreal, dark illustration of a long-necked figure with a human face and glowing yellow eyes, their hair transforming into writhing black snakes. A large, rough-textured yellow moon fills the background against a teal night sky with a small white star. The figure wears a beaded necklace, and the mood feels mythic and unsettling. The artist’s mark “No” appears in the corner, alongside “IONO.CA,” which refers to a website.

Black-and-white folk-horror illustration of a large ogre-like creature standing under a crescent moon beside a small church. The figure holds a club in one hand and a limp human silhouette in the other. Sparse trees and scratchy ground textures fill the landscape. “BOYD” appears at the top, and a small square in the corner shows “NO” as an artist’s mark above IONO.CA as a website.

Black-and-white landscape illustration of a mountainous island under a dotted night sky with a strange dark moon. A shaggy wild figure stands near the shore while small human figures float in a boat below. Stylized trees and swirling terrain patterns fill the scene. “OL’ WILDE” appears at the top, and a corner square shows “NO” as an artist’s mark above IONO.CA as a website.

Black-and-white portrait of a wide-eyed bearded man staring upward against a distressed, textured background. His expression is tense and uneasy. Beneath the image, text reads, “Cripes! They… they chewin on me up in there.” A small signature reading “jimmo” appears in the lower right.

A few images from an illustrated short story I’ve been working on since October, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘢𝘵 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘶𝘦. Getting close.

A stark black-and-white illustration featuring a hooded, robed figure with a long white beard emerging from a rough, grainy background. Large distressed serif text reads “OUT YE DAMN VERMIN!” arranged vertically across the image. The composition has a gritty, print-like texture with splattered white marks throughout. In the lower right corner is an artist’s mark reading “No” alongside a website label reading “IONO.CA.”

Thx for hosting 🖤 this is the first of my #12monsters for 2026

Black-and-white surreal illustration of a mountainous island under a star-speckled sky, titled “Ol’ Wilde.” A tall, shaggy, humanoid creature stands near a shoreline while two small human figures wade in dark water below. Stylized trees line the slopes, strange faces and eyes emerge from the land and water, and a small animal peers from the left foreground. Abstract stars, a dark moon-like orb, and dotted textures fill the sky. An artist’s mark reading “No” appears alongside the signature, and “IONO.CA” is visible as a website mark in the lower corner.

Got these in the mail yesterday, so pleased with how they turned out #12Monsters #IslandsofNo #DarkArt #FolkHorror #ArtPrint

JIMMO@oldjimmo· Jan 21

Starting a quiet year-long ritual: #12monsters for 2026. One creature a month. This is the first. His name is Ol’ Wilde and you see him around every so often. Usually at night after a good rain as the stars start peeking through the clouds. #IslandsofNo #DarkArt #FolkHorror
