Hi! My name is Jay Holloway, and I am a freelance illustrator with a love for landscapes and monsters. Just as a heads up, some of my illustrations may contain horror/surreal elements, and body horror.

HEY MASTOART FOLKS!

I have some Copic markers that I haven’t really used and are in excellent condition; would anyone be interested in a trade/sell? I’ll especially be interested if you have a couple tubes of Daniel Smith watercolors.

A little Baphomet ink! I challenged myself to do this in 3 layers, and I felt like it wasn’t overworked as a result! I learned a lot.

CW’d for Baphomet tiddy.

What if there was an alien world, "singing" strange hymns as petals danced across the clouds, while vicious hunters dove with angelic grace? Contributors @Bonesnail & @canisdemachina@Twitter.com take us to a world that echoes the heavens in more ways than one.

I’m still around! Learning to paint again. #WIP #art

Looking for resources for understanding how light and color work? Color and Light by James Gurney is one of the most thorough and informative books I find myself coming back to. Absolutely worth checking out!

An unnamed dragon who replaced their head with a portal to the Outer realms. Basically an eldritch garden hose. #art #mastoart #mastodonart #creativetoots #dragon #monster #Smaugust

Hey everybody! I apologize for the radio silence; day job hunting plus some personal issues have been preoccupying me this week, but hopefully next week I'll be able to get back to making amazing art for everyone!
