Poison
This one took me ages to finish because of all the little leaves and things. It’s bigger than most of my paintings. Inspired by Rappaccini’s Daughter, Poison Ivy and the Green Girl pulp cover.
Original and prints available here.

I’m having a commission campaign over at my art site, 50% off commissions until August 31! You can order a portrait, a tattoo design, or just anything you can think of. Perhaps a bookmark or bookplate?
The exact pricing for commissions is decided on an individual basis, but unless it’s something unusual it’s always close to the price examples on my commissions page. The offer does not apply to sculpture, commercial use and other special usage rights. Check out the commission page to learn more.
Keep reading to see some more examples of commissions I’ve made for other people.
