I had the great pleasure of painting Sophia Lillis as Doric earlier this year, for the cover of a YA D&D movie prequel novel by @ek_johnston

So photogenic

[Avery Liell-Kok @chanticoa]

@aliceduke @ek_johnston Really beautiful quality of light-- I know that golden hour glow.

Testing negative at last! Yeah COVID sucks. I'm really happy that the racing heartbeat seems to have gone, as well-- vascular issues were my top fear. Still taking bb aspirin daily for a while.

@bigbigtruck Take your time, and heal from what you can.

I thought being more in tune with politics would make me a more socially responsible human. Turns out it just made me a more rage-filled one

@LaRossa It depends entirely on who I'm gifting for! My preferred style would be a blend, though: I like getting someone a request from a wishlist, and adding on something I find I think they'd like.

@RpgAugust I'll use it, sparingly, for specific 'cut scenes', usually cued to a musical piece. I find it a really great way to get my table excited for an epic moment.

@kyletwebster It seems like such a non-traditional composition and yet he makes it work so well, and the wide spaces of intense texture balanced perfectly with space for your eyes to rest . . . what a master.

@CarmenSinek I was waffling and this convinced me. Loish truly is a gem of the art world-- skilled of course, but it's her kindness and dedication to lifting up other artists that makes the difference to me.

I wish I didn't need sickness to give my fleshsack the attention it otherwise deserves.

4 am. There's an owl outside and the cool air feels really good on my slightly feverish skin.

[Avery Liell-Kok @chanticoa]

There's a profane upside to illness; it is the only time that I live according to the whims of my body. If it says sleep, I sleep. Drink, I drink. Wake up at 3:30 salivating at the idea of vegetables? This bitch is getting herself some broccoli.

[Avery Liell-Kok @chanticoa]

@kidlitart Oils, for sure. Still mad I never finished a single oil painting class in college.

[Avery Liell-Kok @chanticoa]

@ludibriumventis God constantly. I have the Tornado and Forgot the Class dreams, too.

@Keffy Love Shack, Personal Jesus, and REM's Stand. That's when I became aware of "the radio" as a thing, rather than just listening to my 1980's version of Kidz Bop tape.
