This piece was so satisfying and cathartic to work on! A meditation on metamorphosis, I wanted to depict transformation and the juxtaposition of blooming life with equally vibrant decay. This is also the first painting (that wasn’t a commission) that I sold before completion! You can find prints, apparel, stationary and home goods with this design here.
I was in a pastel goth mood when I colored this charming little skull bouquet – I think it looks lovely as a journal or throw pillow! You can find it on my redbubble shop as stationary, prints, apparel, and home goods.
The prompt for this week’s #lifeformdrawingclub was PSYCHEDELIC, and I cranked out this skull-splitter in two sessions totaling 11 hours of drawing time. My hand hurts. You can get copies and merch of this bad boy in my Redbubble shop, it looks particularly bitchin’ on pillows, totes, and dresses.
I’ve started connecting the last few Inktober drawing together into a single sheet, resembling tattoo flash. I also added some gold embellishments, to emphasize all the shining and illumination that are the focus of each of these designs (the fire of the grail, the shimmer of the crystal, the glowing lightbulb.) Working on smaller designs at any given time feels much less daunting than producing a full page image every day (plus, it looks pretty damn cool)! I may sell the finished page when I’m done!
“Hidden”
So, I was late to the game in terms of realizing there were word prompts to follow. The prompt for day 4 was “hungry,” and I decided to go very literal with my interpretation:
Folks on Instagram seemed quite taken by this design, so I cleaned it up and added it to my Redbubble shop.
The response to this cosmic bumblebee has been so positive on my Instagram that I immediately scanned the lil lady, cleaned her up, and loaded her onto Redbubble. I think she looks particularly attractive as a hoodie.
This cosmic bee knows where to find all the best flowers 🐝👁💧
Get your sewing machines ready, because I just added four new patterns to my Spoonflower shop – three different variants of my Crystal Coffin design (mint, magenta, and teal) and a pattern based on my Arthropod Tarot series. Which do you like best?
Inspired by the Lifeform Drawing Club‘s “Mutant” prompt, this moth lady is revved up and ready to pollinate.
You can capture her at my Redbubble shop, where her print is just waiting to be pinned and displayed.
UPDATE: thanks to Lifeform for sharing this Lepidopteran Lady on their Instagram!
