I love this sketch Zack @PaintCapsule did of Marmot and Marmalade, on their way to a picnic in the Faewood with a hat big enough to fit the both of them 🥰✨

Today I bought:
A hot pink military style winter jacket
Deep purple sparkly eyeliner
Plum lipstick a-La Wednesday Addams
My own personal fight back against both the current trend for bland neutral colours and the idea that women over fifty should be wearing bland neutral colours. The world is going to hell in a hand basket and I demand my right to sparkle darkly throughout it.

I’m making oracle decks which tie in with my story’s world. For my first deck I used a set of dreamy, impressionistic AI art. Since then, I’ve absorbed more discourse around the ethics of AI and no longer feel comfortable using it.
@PaintCapsule Zack illustrated some art for me as a style/viability test. Making 60 unique images per deck isn’t viable. But 10 images cropped in on various details across multiple cards for visual variety is ☺️

If you're looking for something to do, Francie just pulled a whole box of markers and pens off of a desk, raining them down all over herself and the floor, and reports that it was "fun as hell".

MARMALADE’S LOVE POTION
An ethereal fantasy for teatime reading.

In this chapter, Penelope has just finished making a gown worth a small fortune for a mysterious and secret event… it’s a good thing her customer delights in sharing royal gossip… 😇

Here are some silly spoopy designs I was playing around with before Halloween. Definitely going to do more of these, they're so much fun to doodle. 🧡💚

My character, Steph, has often kept his childhood poetry secret and safe stacked within the hollow of a tree.
Marmot, Steph’s friend and the chaotic companion to the wood witch Marmalade, is sneaking in his own contribution to Steph’s hollow under the discerning gaze of Gail the black toad.
Illustration was created by my partner, Zack, as a couch-time creative collaboration ☺️

I love doing these little abstract doodles of the Faewood, the enchanted forest which grows at the heart of my story’s world.

I picture it being filled with crystalline ferns and coral-esque mushrooms in amongst the dense feathery foliage ☺️
