Here’s one from one of our artists, Morby:

“Being in the games industry pretty much locked us into digital content all day. Once in awhile, we should all look back to traditional mediums for inspiration, or simply to just appreciate the beauty and masterful techniques (without a CTRL+Z to fall back on).

This is an inspirational watercolour piece from Youtuber kelogsloops, enjoy!”
