Morrigan and Lilith, two characters from Capcom’s fighting game series, Darkstalkers. They’re both ladies with bat wings affixed to their temples and back. They’re floating amid a cloud of bats.

Black History Punc Week 1: Grind Fiction
Participating in a Black History Month art challenge centered around punk genres. I wanted to use it to experiment more with character design and have something outside of Meatlubber #2, so I don't burn out.

I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

Two different people have said to me that I "look like the guy who plays Loki" and I know they don't mean my actual looks, just my hair, which I need to cut, but I delay it indefinitely because then people might keep saying I look like Tom Hiddleston and I really need the confidence boost

Actually, Rue's choir buddies think his screaming is rad. Nil's though? They keep throwing holy water at her and call the exorcists. >:

sketchbook spread. two illustrations of people facing away from the viewer: on the left, a bald man in a sweater, and on the right, a woman with a messy braid in a puffer jacket. both are drawn in shades of pink and green markers. text in the top left says "DAVID HORTVITZ MARCH 2"

sketchbook spread. on the left, two simple illustrations of people facing away, colored in blocks of pink and green. handwritten text says "DOING THINGS AND SEEING WHAT HAPPENS". on the right, a fullbody drawing of a photographer looking into their camera. this drawing is gestural and does not have much detail. it is in pink marker with a field of green marker around it.

Painting of a corner of a room with a low bookshelf, TV picturing a blank TV screen, an open door leading to a fire escape and tree, and pictures covering the wall. It is overcast and the mood is calm and quiet.

All the paintings side by side with their associated color reference photos (the overcast one is a shot from a film with two people sitting on a dusty porch, the dusk one is an exterior shot of a cute convenience store, the dramatic one is a picture of the inside of a gothic church).
