Hi all, or should that be howdy y'all. I’m speaking & doing a workshop in Dallas, Texas, next month at The Dallas Society of Visual Communication. 🤠✍️👍 Tickets available here now. Come and say hello if you live in Dallas. The talk is open to everybody, not just DSVC members. I’ve been taking a break from talking about my work but I’m getting back on the horse, so to speak, and Texas seems like a good place to do it. 😁Any suggestions for things to do or other places to visit in Texas?
La bruja Pampurrias ya está en la plataforma de crowdfunding Verkami. Hacía mucho tiempo que quería ilustrar un álbum infantil (mis hijos están saliendo muy raritos con tanto Poe y Lovecraft) y cuando llegó a mis manos este texto, supe que esta brujita sería la elegida, un cuento divertido y muy tierno que nos envuelve de magia y nos enseña a aceptar los cambios. Echadle un ojo a la campaña (http://vkm.is/brujapampurrias) porque los primeros tienen sorpresas y “early birds” (recompensas con descuento para los más rápidos). Y si os gusta, ayudadnos a difundir! Mil gracias!
Taherih Saffarah is a moth in search of darkness, somewhere in the dry mountains of Iran…
She’s one of the 15 adventurers and seekers from my book of illustrated short stories ‘Hortari’.
Only a few hours left to get a copy of the book with a 15% discount. Link in bio or via maharel.com ☜
Have a good week everyone !

This may have been shared here many times but Iād like to drop a link to an amazing site that can be used as a referencing tool! There are a variety of base skulls to rotate in any fashion, then you may use that skull position to search for similar photo references. Desktop works best imo, though here are some mobile screenshots of two of the skull choices:
And another link to the Yoshimoto Collection, a large collection of animal specimens that may be of use to artists and those interested in the field:
