here are some more recent studies because why not

study of the art from Daring Waverider by Winsu Tan. The image shows an anthropormophic otter wearing a purple and teal checkered vest under a leather and pearl cloak. They have a dangling pearl necklace with an intruiging magical looking pendant shaped around a blue sphere. The otter is using a large shell as a wake board as they use kites in the sky to propell them with waves splashing. Beyond we can see lilly pads, tall grass with cat tails and some small fishing boats. Further in the distance is an obscured building and a blue sky filled with clouds

photograph study of a fruit bat hanging from a tree branch. the tree branch and leaves are loosely painted in a few strokes, while the bat fur is detailed and looks soft. Mr.Bat is hanging from the branch looking at the viewer with puppy dog eyes. The wings are curved in a way that parts are stretched thin showing the bright light from the sky.

Thanks for the tag! Here are few of my favorite studies

A study of a scene from House of the Dragon, Alicent Hightower is standing in front of a fireplace, from her expression and eyes we can see she is yelling in distress and crying. Her right hand is gripped to her chest with her index finger pointing at herself. She is wearing an elegant deep green dress that has flowing sleeves, the left of which reflects the fire behind her. We can see she is holding the hand of someone that is seated out of view, but their arm and hand are visible, it appears to be a childs hand. Behind Alicent, we see her daughter looking at her, slightly blurred. In the foreground is person seated just off screen, we only can see their sleeve and shoulder

digital paint study of the scene from KPop Demon Hunter where the derpy tiger decends into a glowing puddle. The tiger is looking at the fallen over potted plant in the foregeound. the 3 eyed bird with a top hat, Sussy, is on his head giving no cares. The tiger is blue with large red and yellow eyes. behind them is various plants illuminated by the glowing puddle

Caraxes the Red Wyrm from "Fire and Blood" and House of the Dragon. A long snake-like slender red dragon, his head is similar to an alligators with devil horns and a beard of horns. Mid-stride, he walks awkwardly forward with one wing in front. In the distance is the castle Dragonstone and beyond the sky shows a sunset

The violent jump from 2019 to 2025

A giant turtle wearing sunglasses floats through space. There is a mushroom house on the turtle's back. The mushroom cap is purple with pink spots and has a large cartoonish telescope with a green eye visible in the lense. On the left side of the cap there is a castle tower. Behind we see a teal and purple galaxy made up of thousands of stars

CW: MEDICAL DRAWING OF ORGANS like... it's on the other side, attached to the stomach..which is underneath the organ he removed... which is like half of the torso...

Medical drawing of human organs

a cut out of a human torso ahows the Liver covering nearly the top half of the torso, with the gall bladder and stomach BENEATH the liver. ATTACHED to the stomach is the spleen. Below we can see the colon wrapping around the small intestine and finally at the bottom is the bladder.

this surgeoun doesn't even know the spleen is attached to the stomach at the left side of the body, but removed an organ that is ONTOP of the stomach, and takes up like 8 times more space

The shelves reach all the way to the ceiling, each packed with enough wheels of cheese to stock all of skyrim. Beneath the shelves are baskets filled with various cheeses and meats. In the foreground on the bottom left of the photo we can see more cheese stacked on a table.

I've been working on my portraits too! Price list is coming real soon if you are interested 😋

Master Study, done in Procreate, of the famous Madame X by John Singer Sargent.
In this study I focused on how Sargent depicted the colors in this piece, but avoiding blacks. The darkness in this piece is achieved by high saturated warm and cool tones that give off the illusion of darkness. Even the dress is not black but dark saturated reds and blues. Her skin is stark pale compared to her dark dress. She has auburn hair with a small tiara shaped in a crescent moon. Her arms draped down her side. Her right arm twists to show her pale forearm with her fingers delicately resting on the table beside her. In her right hand we can see she's holding her gloves that match her dress, bringing attention to the bright wedding ring on her finger

A quick 40 minute sketch of a young woman in marching band attire from Marco Bucci's Proko class Understanding and Painting The Head. The background is bright peach to soft reds indicating a sunset behind the figure. She has orange bright rim light on the right side of her face and hat. Her head is slightly tilted to the left with a look of calm concentration.

Fantasy portrait of a halfling woman. She has wavy brown hair, a white loose-sleeved shirt with green overalls and a brown skirt. Around her honeysuckle flowers are falling, one falls into her hand. The background is a splash of color, light violet at the bottom that transitions to sky blue at the top with bright yellow bursting from behind her.

Face Study of Ben Stiller in Zoolander doing the hilarious "Blue Steel" expression

but really though it's a very rewarding hobby 🍞

a loaf of jalepeno cheddar sourdough sitting on a cooling rack on my kitchen counter. The oven spring is larg revealing a crackling orange browned crust. Because of the fat in the cheese this loaf basically fried itself.

crumb reveal of the jalepeno cheddar sourdough. various pockets of cheese and peppers are througout the crumb. Some large bubbles can be seen but the crumb looks bouncy and chewy. I need to make this bread again..

Fan art of Seregios, a wyvern from Monster Hunter. The yellow and red wyvern is diving towards the viewer with its claws extended. The scales of Seregios are pointing out giving the impression of a pinecone opening. The background is a desert with sandstone caves surrounding the viewer.
