For all of October I worked on a series of character concepts for the Time of the Twins, a sci-fi young adult book. I had a great time envisioning these characters with great direction from their design team. They also graciously did an interview with me, which you can find linked in my profile. Time of the Twins is out now, available at Barnes & Noble and other book retailers. lexandlivia.com @lexandlivia #timeofthetwins #lexandlivia #kylieandkendall #scifi #digitalart #conceptart

I took a much needed break this past week from a crazy October schedule and took a trip to Philadelphia with my brother @parasamgate. Apparently, getting a tattoo is my way of relaxing. I can't show any projects I'm working on at the moment, so here are some shots of the incredible work done by @barnseytattoo. Check out his work! #tattoos #tattoo #blackworktattoo #pointilismtattoo #chrysanthemum #halfsleeve #artistsofinstagram

The full piece I did for @lightgreyartlab and their show Midnight, opening tonight! It was so much fun to work on a spooky nightmare piece so close to Halloween. Hope you guys enjoy your weekend and check out the show for some great art!

I worked on the concepts and turn arounds for this statue and am blown away by the results. It was fantastic working for Mondo on one very iconic character. It feels surreal to finally see it in 3d form. Thanks to #mondotees and @brockotter for the opportunity to bring this guy to life. ・・・ Sneak peek at our Alucard statue at @beyondfest #beyondfest #castlevaniasotn #mondotees #mondo

I was recently interviewed by @lightgreyartlab for their ongoing group show, #neveroddoreven . They asked about conventions, process, and some of my biggest inspirations.

An updated look at my studio 📺 The only things missing are my poor dogs who were terrified of the camera. #artistsofinstagram #artiststudio #cintiq #bookhoarder #artlife #saradiesel #instart

These are some of the prettier thumbnails from my brainstorming period for my latest piece, Xunantunich. I typically work in pen so that I don't worry about making them perfect. As thumbnails, it's all about the flow and the life of the piece. ✏ #traditionalart #penandink #moleskine #ideation #artistsofinstagram #instart

Was so fortunate to spend the evening with two of my favorite people, Kristine and Colin Poole, chatting about galleries, life, and art. Check out their amazing work at kristinepoole.com and colinpoole.com and ogle it like I do. 😍 #kristineandcolinpoole #societyofillustrators #artistsofinstagram #saradiesel (at Society Of Illustrators)

Sol Aeterna - Finally finished one of my pieces from my SmArt School course with the wonderful Donato Giancola. I'll be doing a series of pieces inspired by the tarot for a solo exhibit in October. This piece was meant to incorporate alchemical and fantasy elements into the sun card. More previews to come!
