Started off as a long-haired Plamya, but ended up changing more than just the hairstyle. My last image of 2012, and one of my favourites. I mostly used it as an excuse to do colour experiments and discovered some tricks i’ll definitely be using more regularly. Original pencil art available for $15 | Print available…

Another portrait of Mira, this time with a little friend attached. I’ve maybe run out of patience with black-and-white illustrations and gone back to painting. I like the look of inked work, but when it comes to what i’m creating i’d rather have colour. Original pencil art available for $15 | Print available starting at…

Plamya II

Another portrait of Plamya.

Water spirit, to go along with the Mira the Earth-Spirit and Plamya the Fire-Spirit. I’m not certain how anatomically correct she is, as none of the models in my photo references have a body fat percentage over 25. (Clearly i need to expand my reference library.) And i’m skinny enough to still get clothing from…

An alternative version of Mira. I think i like the original better, she looks more like a unique person instead of yet another stock model. Despite the ‘II’ in the image name, this is just the second ‘finished’ illo i’ve done of Mira. As far as less-finished illos, there’s been maybe a dozen. She’s supposed…
