I am back from a quick trip to Norway. It's not every day your stepdad turns 50!
I've put together and sent out the March Digital Rewards to $5+ patrons. Thank you all for your support this month! Here is an overview of all the content you've received in your inboxes. I hope you like it! Physical rewards will be sent out later this week.

My $12 pen pals received this print for February! I have never painted such a smooth and good looking book... I'm quite proud of it!
Let me know what you think of this months print, pen pals!

Another week is almost over!
I didn't do much painting around the launch of the Good Dogs Kickstarter but now I'm back at it again. At the moment I have two night elf and one worgen commission! I'm really excited to work on these!

A few of you haven't been receiving your physical rewards for a few months. If this is you, please check your inbox!
Commission for Johan! She'll be part of the March rewards, with behind the scenes material, high Res JPEGs, video timelapse and more.

The Good Dogs 2 hard enamel pins Kickstarter is going great! We're 5 days into a 26 day campaign and we're currently at £732 raised and 3 breeds unlocked! But it's not done yet - I hope to unlock all the stretch goals...
Say hello to our little friends.
EDIT: Yeah YOU HEARD ME, GOOF DOGS. Definitely not a typo!

Just look at these cuties!
I've talked with my manufacturer and found out I can offer colour variations for the breeds without raising the cost too much. My most popular request last time was, for sure, "do you have this in another colour?" and this time I'm glad I can offer that.
The Shiba and the Huskies will be the funding goal for the Kickstarter. The other pups will be stretch goals!
But it doesn't stop here. No sir! I...

I'm so glad I'm primarily a painter and not a designer. Unless I stop myself I just keep on creating different versions of what I need.
Today I've designed a few backing cards. I will design the kickstarter assets around the backing card, so it's a pretty big decision!
I need your opinion! Which card do you like?

It's been a while since there was an update about the Good Dogs 2 Kickstarter - I've been busy with commissions!
But today has been all Kickstarter. Not much to show yet - mainly planning. I've tweaked the previous breeds and started on a few new breeds - including Long Coat border collie, greyhound and westie! I'm super excited to show you more over the next few days.

It's not often I'm commissioned to paint men - and even less often I get to paint them as rugged as this! Blue is certainly my favourite colour 💙 commissioned by Steven.

Hello friends!
How about a weekly update?! It's been a productive one!
I finished 2 commissions last week: Wyldoran Void Elf Portrait for Mehdi and Wayhaught and Tank for Holly, that I published today. That makes a total of five illustrations completed in January! Definitely a new personal record.
Now comes the hard part: avoiding burn ou...

Ah, what a week! I finished my illustration for Alvilda, A Good Evening, and I started another commission, (the on the right) for Mehdi.
I'm in such a good place now. Working on these illustrations is such a joy! It feels good. I expect to finish at least one of these before February. And coupled with a few sketch commissions that means I should have February rewards finished before <...

Commission finished for my wonderful Patron, Alvilda!
She came to me with a prompt of her mage reading a book. And I figured.. why not go all out? Reading in the library with the dim candle light? hell yes.
In February's digital rewards my $5+ Patronns will receive these behind the scenes rewards for this illustration:
Physical rewards for January is on their way to their lucky Patrons! Keep an eye out for a delivery over the next few days 💜

Over the last few weeks I've been working on the Good Dogs 2 Kickstarter. Designed a few breeds, and unlike last time, I also made a logo!
I've never really designed a logo before, and any graphic designer will probably think it's horrible! But I did my best hahah.
I wanted a logo that symbolises dogs. Now that's a challenge - dogs are unique and each different from another. But I think we can all agree that dogs are fun and quirky

It's time for another reveal! I've been working on this special enamel pin today..
What breed do you think it is?
Let me know in the comments!
Edit: It's of course THE LABRADOR RETRIEVER ♥
This enamel pin is made a bit differently than my others.
I noticed that particularly the brown and black labs can have yellow eyes. On my other designs I've filled the eyes with a particular colour, but on the labs yo...
