"Taste Like Roses"

Heyyy everyone! Dropping the first BONUS Sketch-a-Wish this year, frequently requested by my lovely Patreon members! Featuring Inez and Whit from WHAT THE RIVER KNOWS by @isabelibanezbooks!

Absolutely adore these two and the abrupt twists and turns in their relationship while they were unraveling the mysteries of Egypt. As a fun Easter Egg, I took the passage from this scene, used a phonetic translator, and drew it as hieroglyphics in the back. Starting from 'Do you always kiss your friends like this?' to when the candle goes out.

This artwork is currently part of a pre-order campaign for Isabel's paperback release of the duology. You'll get this and another one of my WTRK prints when you pre-order both volumes from her local indie! Check out her feed for more info! (I copied Isabel's song choice for this post because it's the perfect track 😂)

Last week when I announced a set of officially licensed prints based on the Grishaverse series by @lbardugo, (link in bio!), I had an old piece I wanted to modernize to my current style - a scene I described as the 'most intense game of Operation ever.'

Back in 2019, I couldn't find any fanart of this pivotal scene. Now there are many interpretations from other artists, some wonderfully creative and symbolic of Kaz's inner turmoil. I'm proud to slip this new version back into the bouquet! 🥹

A short while ago, it was announced over at @suelynntan's feed that the first edition run of her new book NEVER EVER AFTER would feature a special hardcase artwork!

After raving over THE DAUGHTER OF THE MOON GODDESS duology, I was of course anticipating this and loved how much Sue Lynn has spun a completely new world. A 'Cinderella Retelling' is just scratching the surface!

Check out @suelynntan for more info on how to preorder!

"Reverberations"

Heyy everyone! It's been a while and I'm behind on posting a few artworks! Starting off with the art for the papercraft and illustration I did for the @fairyloot edition of Where the Library Hides by Isabel Ibañez @isabelibanezbooks !

First up is the papercraft, which was inspired by one of the climatic scenes, but I transplanted them to a different background from a prominent setting in the book, including the shelves of scrolls behind the pair. I told myself after the Book Eaters Papercraft I would NEVER quill in a papercraft again, but I betrayed myself! Everyone of those golden circles became a quilled scroll and I withered all over again. 😫 (But the elation of seeing the final result has no match!)

I mentioned in a recent post how I love to create echoing art. And I also mentioned previously how intimidating it is to make designs for a book series that is unfinished, not knowing what to look forward to with the future designs. I'm really happy how the dust jackets were able to work with each other, but even more so with the endpapers! How else could I have replicated the flowing river from the first book's endpaper with not but a sidewinding ouroboros? I'm so grateful to Isabel for making it so easy for me with this concept by including this symbol in the book! And I don't know about you, but after Night-Glimmer, I'm really loving the opportunities to draw MMCs from the back. 🤭

I want to thank Fairyloot and Isabel for the opportunity to work on this dazzling duology! It promised to scratch The Mummy itch we have all been having for years, and I am well and thoroughly scratched. 🤌 (Not to be weird)

On a side note, if you're around this weekend, I'd pay attention to my stories! It's almost midsummer and it's time to celebrate with a trivia giveaway! 🙌

"Cuddles are Hot" Dropping the final Bonus Sketch

"Cuddles are Hot"

Dropping the final Bonus Sketch-a-Wish of 2024, frequently requested by my lovely Patreon members! Featuring Hart and Mercy from THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY by Megan Bannen!

Between this and Divine Rivals, I was being well fed with You've Got Mail retellings (my favorite rom-com, fireElmo.gif). This one had a fun and unique paranormal spin on it, but still felt very grounded and cozy as we progressed through the story beats, even against the back drop of death and afterlife. 🤌✨
