The Mysterious Meowing Lump

Posted on January 19, 2011 by BrassyDel

You may notice in the photo below…

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission – PART TWO

Posted on January 17, 2011 by BrassyDel

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission PART TWO The hour was late, the ale was flowing, and four adventures sat a table in the Golden Boar Tavern discussing job prospects. A respectable proprietor sitting at the next table had offered them a job to steal an item of high value, while other possibilities lay in checking reports of a bandit raid…

Blue Skies

I’m actually fairly fond of this one. It’s old, it’s simple, it’s small, and it just… I dunno. I like it. Do you like it too? Like it enough to give it a new home and maybe actually let it breath and be seen? Here’s the deets, guys: One of a kind and available for $30 + shipping from my…

This original acrylic painting is approximately 13″x16″ on canvas paper. It’s been hanging out, completed, in storage for a little too long, so I’ve put it up for sale. Maybe it’ll find a good, loving home, where it can adorn a wall instead of being wrapped up in perpetuity. Maybe that’s YOUR home, even? If you think it just might…

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission – PART ONE

Posted on January 10, 2011 by BrassyDel

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission PART ONE It was a typical Friday night at the Golden Boar Tavern in Port Faust. Named after the fountain that dominated the market square outside its doors, the tavern’s clientele was generally more serene and wealthier than that found in the alehouses in the Docks District. A large square firepit in the center of…

I threw the sketch for that upper right hand monkey from yesterday onto a new layered file in Photoshop and added some inks, colors, and typography. Voila! A cute(r) monkey.
