flame-broiled unicorn and dragon
…drenched in awesome sauce.
While you can always see posts on my sketches — which often include a bit more in-depth coverage on my process and workflow along with time-lapse videos — here is a quick snapshot of my most recent work (that I’m proud of).

Last weekend I started a new campaign by a local DM and sadomasochist (I’ll return to this in a bit) at Secret Lair of Chelan, and is only appropriate I started a new character, Root. Background to Backstory I have a confession to make. I was half tempted to just roll a Level 1 and…

I recently started an IRL game with folks local to me at a newly opened gaming shop, Secret Lair at Lake Chelan, in our hometown of Manson, Washington. For the past many years we’ve played entirely virtual table-top (aka VTT), and so actually getting together around a physical table to sit down is quite a…

30 years ago I tried to create a masterpiece. Discover whether I did or not. Or more precisely, learn how I took that “masterpiece” and made it better. And if not better then at least different.

I’m back at playing D&D with a new group of folks, and as such it’s time to create a new portrait for my character. While I considered playing either Stone or Unnis – given this is a more role-play heavy group (versus the min-max tactical approach in my other groups) – I also thought it…

I created these set of portraits of a Fey Eladrin for a character in an online D&D campaign. Given that these creatures, relatives of elves, change their appearance to one of the four seasons per game session, I thought it would be nice to have the portrait changeable to match the current game session’s season.…

Forgotten Realms’ Eladrin including fey elves who, after centuries of living in the Feywild, have adapted to their new existence including the ability to change their appearance to fit their mood, assuming characteristics of the season. It’s a great concept, especially as an artist, as it gives me a chance to portray a single character…

As with Stone, I started playing a bit of D&D 5E after supporting Camp D&D Online on Kickstarter. Whereas Stone is a bit of a stretch for me as a melee fighter, Unnis is entirely my jam: magical glass canon. Given that I’ve not played D&D since the 2E, I opted to go with Dragonborn…

Kailynn is a half-elf who comes from an affluent merchant family only find herself on the road after a devastating loss of both her husband and child whom she has buried both. Now without family, but through her tragedy, she has found a new purpose to find and heal those in need. After consulting with…

I recently started playing D&D 5e on Camp D&D Online after backing it on Kickstarter. I tend to play magic users pretty much any chance I get, so for a change of pace I thought I’d play a melee character. For point of reference, some 35 years ago was the last melee character I played…

I’ve wanted to go back to some of my older pieces and re-do, largely born out of both a dissatisfaction with my treatment of the subject and a desire to see if my skills are sufficiently “leveled up.” Ironically, I keep psyching myself out worried that maybe I have not grown enough to warrant the…

A few months ago I attended Norwescon where I participated in an artist workshop. This is where you can show your work to other artists to get your work, well, critiqued. And you also get to participate in someone else’s workshop. All in all, a lot of fun. This year, in particular, I found it…

I recently completed this piece, while partly in recognition I sorta suck (technical term for not good) doing horse bodies, largely inspired by my UX design team who have everyone who joins the team draw a unicorn. I love unicorns! I have a site dedicated to them and dragons; even if I do tend to…

Art Show Well, I got a lovely surprise this morning when I woke up – someone dropped out of the art show at Norwescon. Well, okay, that’s not lovely news, now is it? Bad Ward! But it did mean that as I was on the waitlist, the show coordinator reached out and asked if…

I finally got around to creating a quick, one-minute video of the process to create Dragon Lady from the time I imported a photographed version of the original sketch. Sans the original sketch done with a mechanical piece, all of the video shows timelapse of my work within Procreate app on my iPad Pro using an…

“Two Great Dan’gons and Their Owner” is a bit of humorous portraiture of our two Great Danes, Kumo and Sora, along with a guest appearance by me, albeit posthumously. Hopefully it’s not too hard to find me tucked away there in the picture. The whole idea for this picture originated, ironically, from a picture I…
The Tale of Sora: A Dragon Princess
Long before Time learned how to tick, there lived a tiny dragon princess in the folds of the night sky. Her name was Sora, for she was born from the blue-black breath of the heavens themselves. The Great Universe Mother...

welcome
Ha! You scrolled down. Why, thank you very much and welcome to my site, unigon pics.
I picked illustration back up after two decades away from it, and I am, by no stretch of the imagination, a master artist. What I lack in skill, I hope I make up for with passion.
