September 2024 Patron Sketches
Saturday, November 2nd, 2024
Patron sketches again! I also did Drawtober, but I gave myself a mandate to just do pencil sketches in a notebook, and mostly concentrate on figure drawing, so I won’t be reposting those here. They’re free to view on Patreon, though!
Eight cards for six requests, and on time, too!
- Andria asked for birthday level-ups, and got this absolutely not from Mario 1up shroom
- Kelly prompted “raindrops and rainbows” and I feel like this was a predictable sort of result (sold)
- Jefferson wanted “endless swearing” and that much grawlix is quite the challenge to write! (sold)
- Kitty Nebula just because
- Eric wanted Dragon Fireworks and I had fun with it (sold)
- another just because….falling stars, fireflies in the rain, who knows? (sold)
- Amy B wanted good birthday vibes, so these cuties are for her
- and last but absolutely not least, SaraBeth wanted Pod as Beetlejuice, and while Poddlejuice refused to wake up for his cameo, he did agree to be in the sketch (sold)

August 2024 Patreon Sketches
Wednesday, October 9th, 2024
As usual, these were requested in August, sketched in September, and are being shared here a little after that! I still have my 100 Cats project to share with y’all, but I haven’t yet figured out what format I want to use for the posts (and how much Photoshopping it will require, sigh).
- Nick and Andria both wanted coziness, so the napping purrito and autumn opossum are for them.
- SaraBeth asked for two of my OCs, Andy and Horace. Andy is a weird shadow monster who is in full muppet mode here, lol. (sold)
- Jefferson wanted a Galaxy Cake, ironically not the cake I had for my birthday this year. (sold)
- Eric asked for egrets. No regrets, only egrets. (sold)
- Kelly asked for a phoenix and got this sparkly boyo. (sold)
- Amber wanted Calvin & Hobbes, which I am always happy to deliver. (sold)
- I got another new pack of cool pencils and experimented with them to draw weird fire.
- Amy B wanted a batcat for the season! (sold)

March 2024 Patreon Sketches
Monday, May 13th, 2024
I wrote a LOT of words last month (over 50K!) on the new Consulting Magic book, so these were a little late, but I got ’em done. Enjoy!
- Amber asked me to do “the artist in residence” (me) so I went a little ridiculous with it. (sold)
- Jefferson prompted “barcodes on the brain” and really I don’t know what else you could expect from me. (sold)
- Nick wanted a baby Chocobo.
- Amy B said “grumple” which I decided was “grumpy skrunkle” and there he is. (sold)
- Catherine asked for a Princess Fish.
- Deandra asked for the Queen Bees from To Hive and to Hold, and I did the more alien-looking one, only I’m just not great at translating them from my brain so you know, don’t take her as canon lol.
- Kelly wanted a cat + dragon, and gets this draconic kitty. (sold)
- Eric asked for Cloud Strife in a dress, and, welp, here he is! (sold)
I hope you guys have had a great April and don’t get rained on too much!

Still Death
Thursday, April 4th, 2024
Still Death, 6″x4″ watercolor on paper, $200.
It’s like a still life, but eerie! Little creepy doll fingers poke their shiny green flesh up out of the rust-streaked soil, while the cracked head is helpless to do anything but watch. Bats fly in the on the sulphur winds and
The whole tiny painting is the size of a postcard, perfect to hide in a bookshelf or niche for extra spook points.
