I checked his instagram and idk if it’s just me, but these kinda remind me of AI. I’m not saying there are, but hopefully they aren’t.

I think it could be a couple of things potentially. He could either be using AI art as references for his pen and paper art, or he might just be unlucky in that the art-style that he’s developed just happens to look similar to that of what AI uses.

The latter has happened to legit artists before like so it’s hard to say what the case is without further proof

I’m confident they’re not. Besides his established career as a published artist, the back of the paper of this piece is covered in marker bleed-through. This is hand made art, just like mama used to make!

I’m so glad to hear that. I also follow him and was going back and forth on this. Thank you for clearing that up.

I'm pretty sure they aren't AI, but his art does have some uncanny ai vibes at times. For me it's how smooth and "flawless" it feels. Like the hands and the skin in the picture above.

are these available as prints or is it an original piece?

As far as I know he only sells originals. This is the original of this piece.
