New Quests, New Canvas: Finding My Niche in Queer Fantasy Art

There's something magical about deciding to begin again. To pick up your tools-digital brushes, sketchbooks, dice-and declare, "This is the path I'm walking now." That's where I'm at. I'm at the beginning of something new, something that feels deeply me. I'm starting a new creative journey rooted in queer fantasy art-with a sword in one hand and a sketchpad in the other.
This blog, and my art, are now a space for gay knights, dungeons & dragons, and video games.
I've always loved knights. Not just the shining armor and the sweeping capes (though, come on, those are iconic), but the myths around them: loyalty, devotion, courage, and the ache of unspoken love. The stories I craved growing up weren't just about dragons and battles-they were about longing glances across firelight, oaths whispered in secret, and the tension of honour vs. desire.
I'm knee-deep in sketching party dynamics, dramatic character sheets, and the chaotic energy of campaigns that go widely off-script. There's so much space in D&D for queer expression, and I want my art to reflect that-the crush-worthy NPCs, the emotional roleplay arcs, the dramatic final boss standoffs charged with tension. Fanart is how I pay tribute to those moments and share the sparks they light in me.
The same could be said with video games. Providing a plethora of stories to explore with characters one can fall in love with. Expanding the depths of the lore through small details for art pieces.
So here's to this new beginning. To armour that shines a little bright, to magical binding spells with gay energy, and to a canvas full of dreams I'm finally brave enough to chase.
Stick around and see where this new quest takes me!
