My first D&D book cover was just previewed! Fizban's Treasury of Dragons. I've always loved D&D covers and it was a huge honor to be asked to work on one.

Been looking forward to sharing this one for what seems like forever! Tiamat, for Mtg's D&D: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms set. This was one of those assignments that I felt incredibly lucky to get. I hope you enjoy it half as much as I enjoyed painting it!

My first painting for Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty was previewed this morning! No name or card to go with it yet but I'm excited to finally be able to share some art from this awesome set.

This is was definitely my favorite concept to work on for Icewind Dale. Basically an elderly white dragon with a long-dead wizard in his saddle that he still talks to. Kind of sad and funny at the same time.

Sheoldred, the Apocalypse for MtG's Dominaria United set.
24 x 30 inches, oils on cradled board

So I've got a bunch of concept art from the Kaldheim push to share. I thought I'd start with the Fire and Frost giants.

Demon concept for Kaldheim. They wanted the"viking helmet with horns" look for the demons, but biological instead of helmets. That lead to "what if their beards were made of horns?" and "maybe weapons made of weapons?".

Here's the art for Lyra Dawnbringer!

Radha, Heart of Keld. New art for MtG's new set Core 2021! After working on concept art for the Keldons for Dominaria I'd always wanted to paint one of them so I was really excited when I got this assignment from
@SheppardArts

My Artist Series Secret Lair is out! It was a huge honor and I had so much fun putting my own spin on these great characters.
First up is Kozilek, the Great Distortion.

Here's my first piece to be previewed from the new MtG set! Nylea is still waiting on the english translation of her name but I'm glad I can share her. It was really interesting getting to revisit her after all these years.

More work for MtG's Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. I spent a lot of the concept push working on anatomy for the playable races and one of the biggest challenges there was clarifying/updating what the Dragonborn look like.
Shared with permission from Wizards of the Coast.
Journey to the Oracle and Jadzi, Oracle of Arcavios, my final two paintings for MtG's Strixhaven. It was a lot of fun putting together the story of finding this wise old lady.
Karn, Living Legacy. For MtG's new Dominaria United set.
24 x 30 inches, oils on cradled board
For those interested in the original painting, it's currently up for auction on the MtG Art Market Facebook group.
Another one from the Kamigawa concept push, an Akki mech. I had so much fun on this thing, imagining them cobbling these machines together from scraps they find.
New art for MtG's Lost Caverns of Ixalan! Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch. There's really nothing cooler than being asked to paint a feathered serpent god.
18 x 24 inches, oils on linen on aluminum.
A.D. Ovidio Cartagena
Here's a Kitsune Ronin from the Kamigawa concept art push. I did some work updating the Kitsune, working out their facial forms so they felt less mask-like while not drifting too far from the features that people recognize.
Just got word that I can start sharing the concept art that I did for D&D's Dragon Heist! Here's the dwarven and half-orc Zhentarim bosses I worked up.

#waterdeep
Ygra, Eater of All for MtG's upcoming Bloomburrow set. This set is so adorable but I have to admit it was fun to paint one of the baddies.
For those interested in the original painting, it's currently up for auction on the MtG Art Market FB group.
Polukranos, Unchained! For MtG's new set, Theros Beyond Death. This one was intense to plan out but was great fun at the same time, so many heads (including two new ones)!

My originals for this set will be up for auction on ebay soon.

So I have a ton of concept art to share from MtG's Forgotten Realms concept push. I think I'll start with the class silhouette sheet I worked on. The goal was to make them clear and individual, even without labels.

Here's a wood elf weapon sheet from the
#Kaldhiem
concept art push. We were pushing their gear to feel heavy and ancient compared to the iron and steel weapons of other groups.
Here's a new piece for MtG's upcoming Ultimate Masters Set!
Eternal Witness, 18 x 24 inches, oils on cradled board.

Frostpeak Yeti. Another for MtG's Kaldheim. I really enjoyed making up this little story about these poor lost warriors meeting their end on on the side of a mountain in Kaldhiem.

18 x 24 inches, oil on cradled board.
New art for MtG's Innistrad: Midnight Hunt! Tovolar, Dire Overlord. It was a lot of fun getting to tackle Tovolar and his gang both in human and werewolf form.
A.D. Taylor Ingvarsson
24 x 30 inches, oils on cradled board.
Here's a couple more images from the Kaldheim concept push, this time Shadow Elves. They're closely associated with the Cosmos Serpent so lots of scale motifs went in along with a cloak of shed serpent skin.

Are you someone who likes never-before-seen Magic cards? Well then I've got something for you! I've been asked to officially preview Lyra Dawnbringer from the upcoming Dominaria set! ⚔️🧚♀️🛡️

And here's the second image of him, Tovolar, the Midnight Scourge. These guys are basically super-werewolves so I wanted to use both his sword and the smashed carriage to show the scale of how huge these dudes are.

Grist, the Plague Swarm for MtG's Modern Horizons 3 set. Not your average planeswalker but this one was really interesting to solve.

Oils on linen on aluminum (Artefex board)
A.D. Deborah Garcia
Concordia Pegasus, for MtG's new set Ravnica Allegiance. 16 x 20 inches, oils on cradled board. I had a lot of fun with this one, I've really come to enjoy painting horses (even weird mutant ones, read the flavor text ;))

Another one for Strixhaven, Dina, Soul Steeper.
18 x 24 inches, oils on cradled board.

Illuna, Apex of Wishes for MtG's new set Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths. This one was a fun challenge to design since it's a hybrid beast/elemental/dinosaur.
For those interested, the auction for this one will start this weekend.

Here's a new one for MtG's Streets of New Capenna, Ziatora, the Incinerator! Such a fun assignment.

Here's another one for Kaldheim, Kardur Doomscourge! This one was near and dear to me because it's based on one of my demon designs from the Kaldheim concept art push.

Another image for the MtGAFR concept push, this time a halfling fighter. I thought having her dual wielding an elven dagger and an orcish knife as her swords (that she liberated from their previous owners) was a fun concept.

Gisa, the Hellraiser. A new painting for MtG's new Outlaws of Thunder Junction set.

Another concept for Kaldheim. We were asked to make the wood elves really muscular which was a pretty interesting change of pace for elves. I remember some funny conversations about their "beef level".
