Currently watching season 3 of The Witcher, so I guess it's a good time to repost this cover I did for The Tower of Swallows ✨

I want to do more weird/surreal imagery. 🤔 Anyway this is from 2018, an illustration for a Tor.com short story; 'The Word of Flesh and Soul' by Ruthanna Emrys.

A respite from your doomscrolling... Here's an old piece from 2016 inspired by Marianne North, a 19th century explorer and botanical artist, who travelled the world in search of flowers.

I am thrilled to have these two pieces accepted into the Society of Illustrators annual! Coincidentally both pieces feature towers, maybe that is the trick to getting in. 😅

One of these days I need to do some elaborate illustrated borders. It's like an illustration within an illustration! Pictured here: 1. John R. Neill, The Sea Fairies, 1911 2. Franz Stassen, Tristan & Isolde, 1900 3. Otto Seitz, Jugend magazine, 1896.

The Omnibus (1892), by Anders Zorn. That streak of light leading up to the woman's face is so crazy and bold and unexpected. I love it!

I'm completely in love with this modernised Hanfu look! It's also great inspiration for illustration; I feel like my characters are always wearing boring clothes 😅

I recently got to illustrate the cover for The Witcher: Tower of Swallows! It's part of a hardcover set being released by @orbitbooks. Every cover in the series is illustrated by a different artist - which is *such* a cool idea :) Thanks to @planetpinto for the art direction!

It appears my specialty for MtG is illustrating people breaking apart into tiny pieces :D
