I struggle with social anxiety and big crowds. But there are ways to calm the rough waters

Perhaps?

Not much in the way of the colour orange, or candles, but nevertheless here we are!

Yesterday’s Magnetic Fields gig and current affairs fuelled the flames for this one, as did pink dolphins.

This is a pumpkin caving of the infamous Nautilus submarine, owned by the pirate captain Nemo . Who sunk ship that supported war, ramming them with his submarine. In this tale Nemo's ship gets attacked by a monstrous giant squid. I caved this design at the Chadds Ford Historical Society's Great Pumpkin Carve contest and event. This is a live carve event. Artist have no idea what kind of pumpkin they will be given to carve. No knowledge of shape, color, size, or condition. Competitors must create their design with manual hand tools. Cavers have 6 hours to create their master pieces, to be considered to qualify to be judged ,to compete for the prize . The size of the average pumpkin is from 200 to 400 pounds , and their wall are about 5 inched thick. It took me 6 hours to carve my pumpkin design. Stephen J. Vattimo 10/18/2021

Walk down the right back alley in Sin City and you can find anything...

Inktober piece 1, another 3am finish so a bit late, but I am traveling this month so may not be able to put out 1 everyday. I will try my best to get some practice in.

Acrylic on Canvas, March 2020. This painting is of a photo that I took on a camping road trip around Iceland in May 2016 with two of my oldest and best friends -- one of my greatest memories.

Day 7’s word “Enchanted”. Small quick doodle.

This illustration is part of a book I made. It's a self edited project about good guys and bad guys at the movies and series. All made with Procreate from pencil sketches.

This is a mix of pencil, ink, and gold leaf.

This art is linked to my previous work. The protogonist has entered the other side of the world. A weird place but it seems familiar as this world is nothing but his consciousness and diary is just a portal which let him in here

Just a doodle about my favorite coffee shop...

Whether I make a stamp, pattern or a digital colored illustration, it always starts with a drawing. Preferably made with a 0.05 fineliner.
