The Queen of Swords 🗡️🦇🗡️ from "The Vampire's Tale Tarot"
tinyurl.com/2byeh9k6
Illustration of the "Queen of Swords" card from the Vampire's Tale Tarot. The artwork depicts a woman kneeling on a stone floor and she reaches up toward a flying bat. She wears a crown, and a small sword lays on the ground beside her. In the background we can see a crescent moon and the distant peaks of mountains.

werner herzog on AI filmmaking (from here www.indiewire.com/features/int...)
Q: A couple years ago at IDFA, I saw this movie "About a Hero," which is this partly Al-generated hybrid documentary that tries to recreate the atmosphere of your films. A: The intention of this young filmmaker was never to remake any [of my films], but making something in the spirit. And I immediately said, "You will fail. It is such a stupid idea. It's phenomenally, abysmally stupid. I will not take part in it." He wanted me to explain things and have my voice in it. I said, "You are alone. There's such a thing as free speech, which I respect. So go ahead and fail." And it is a failure, period. It's so standardized that Al can step in because there's not real storytelling. It's mimicry of something that has happened before. And I welcome Al to replace all the idiots who are into nothing but repeating, repeating, repeating until it's ad nauseam. When it's ad nauseam, please, please, please let Al step in and do the job.

An early fright 🐈‍⬛

"Carmilla" by Sheridan Le Fanu is coming this October in a gorgeous leather-bound special limited edition from Lyra's Books. I made 14 illustrations that are hand-tipped into each copy. This was a dream project, and I can't wait to share more info in the coming weeks!

Delivery van surprised me today with the Vampire's Tale Tarot deck from @abigaillarson.com and Sasha Graham (not sure if she's on this site). Love the deck and the book. Great art, great quality and feel to each of the cards.

A nice addition to my collection.
A stack of tarot cards, with the Fool card prominent, spills across a small book titled The Vampire's Tale. A silver bracelet with wolf heads lay across the book. Just below a corner of the book is a copper disk with Nordic knotwork around the edge of the disk. Four stone dice with the Norse runes tiwaz, pertho, fehu, and sowilo are spread above the deck of tarot cards

Ballpoint pen, colored pencil, and copic gray marker on paper. A man sits at the table with a painting easel, painting supplies, and a small bowl of fruit. As he paints on the canvas he speaks to someone on his landline phone, “Had a dream that a witch told me to start painting - - yeah, doin’ a little fruit bowl thing.” Artist’s note: I probably should’ve painted the colors in this one rather than used colored pencil. Whatever the witch represents in his psyche he is wise to listen to her.

In a crop of a cover by gobifrip.bsky.social, a lich in a large intimidating crown lounges lazily on their throne, watching a restrained barbarian in a glowing orb. Two goblins of cute looks but clearly low int scores watch on as the lich chews on their well-manicured nail because they are so eeeeeevil. Do you have a story you wish to put to print?

This is what happens when a director conflates a parable with real-world nuance. No, we don't need to "both sides" this tale because Dickens wrote the story as it was meant to be understood. Scrooge made mistakes and needed a wakeup call. That's it.

Up at Cruagh Woods at the outskirts of Dublin. This tree went over in a storm several years ago but still continues to show some growth every year.

A image of a fallen tree in the woods on a disused hiking path. Part of the downed tree is covered in bright green moss and new growth from the remaining trunk can be seen with leaves turning to Autumn orange as the season starts to change.

I got this finished up! :) It was done with watercolors, gouache, acrylic ink and walnut ink.
A watercolor painting of a skeleton wearing very thick and flowing and draping robes with a hood. It is very gently embracing a human figure, who presses their head against the skeleton's chest and shoulder area as though seeking comfort.
