Candlelight & Token, published by Glowing Roots Press, 2020-2021.

covers & interior illustrations (left, Forest Angel for Candlelight; right, Nest for Token)

some of my favorite illustration work from the past few years has been for TTRPGs with Gabriel Robinson - Candlelight in 2020 was really my first foray back into ink painting after a long time, & now i can’t get enough of it. very excited for an upcoming project with Gabriel that we can’t quite talk about yet, but i can promise more of this mood.

a robed and hooded figure with insect wings, whose face emits light and shows one large black eye, sits in front of a twisted tree with paper amulets hanging from its branches. in the background is a field of flowers.ALT

more moody ink paintings for a game with a great “dark academia” setting. you can hire me to paint floating dismembered bovines anytime!

DA/DA was my first real TTRPG job & remains one of my favorite projects ever - two beautiful games about survival (queer communities in the near-future apocalypse, Jewish communities in a historic/fantastical shtetl) that truly live inside you once you’ve played them. this was the beginning of the Belonging Outside Belonging system/style (built on the frameworks of Powered by the Apocalypse), which has gone on to inspire many other incredible games!
