This is a collection of my digital art that I do on Adobe Photoshop CC. While most of these are full digital paintings, some of these are mere digital sketches, used to practice brushes or a bizarre idea.
You can see the step-by-step process for one of my paintings here.

Snake-like and sinewy, the rumptifusel is a creature that is rarely seen on the ground. Making their homes in the branches of the tallest trees, rumptifusels are nocturnal and are rarely seen during the day.
Rumptifusels have long, ferret-like faces. Their bodies are long and flat, perfect for tucking around tree trucks. With six pairs of legs and brutally strong muscles, there are few trees a rumptifusel cannot climb in seconds.

Pem is the Employee Records Manager for the Maithan monarchy. This kind and gentle cow has the ability to detract attention from herself and blend into the background for short periods of time. This ability is a weak offshoot of invisibility.
