šŸ”„CRIMSON SMOKEšŸ”„
Another Artober piece, this time a dragon!! I havenā€™t drawn a dragon in a little bit, so I figured Iā€™d do one here!! Yā€™all might want to keep your distance from this guy, red smoke usually means fire is incomingā€¦ I originally did a sketch of this guy taking a little inspiration from HTTYD, while adding a little more with the horns and whatnot. I hope yā€™all like this one!! Whatā€™s your favorite dragon?
[ID: Ink Illustration of a dragon bust facing right, red smoke billowing out of its nostril. Itā€™s in a leather sketchbook that is sitting on a mossy ground surrounded by fallen leaves. The dragon has a slight underbite, sporadic, raised scales, square spines that go down to the nose, small horns on the brow bone, and large, ram-like horns. the horns have some flare to them, continuing back behind the head in some branches. The scales are lighter than the rest of the skin, and has some shine to them. Its neck is pale, and has long, thin scales. Behind its head is an iridescent, gold circle on a white background.
Image 2: Close up of the same dragonā€™s head. The photo is clearer, and shows the details better. The crop ends at each edge of the page.
Image 3: Close up on the dragonā€™s face. The crop starts at the base of the horn and ends at the tip of the jaw. Part of the red smoke is seen. only the gold background is visible.
Image 4: Crop showing off the Dragonā€™s horn. The crop starts halfway up the neck and ends towards the top end of the horn, cropping one branch, and cutting the eye in half. The background is half white and half gold./end ID]

Day 17 Hat
And the last piece I started back in 2022 and just finished painting this week. This last years I didn't have the time or motivation to draw much, so I'm happy that I'm getting back to it.
Prompt list The Witchy Hut by adesignerlife_ and laura_dumitriu on instagram.

Attention Customers: Announcing My Artober / Witchtober / Paintober 2024
This week, I created a whole new Gallery Page on the website, so I can go back at showcasing and selling my art regularly. I thought it was just the perfect moment (yay for synchronicity!) to join one of the many October Art Challenges. I already did one Inktober in 2021, which was a very interesting, but also very demanding experience ā€“ since I do not wish to repeat it, I am writing my own rules this time. Here is all the info:
Dates: October 1 to October 31.
Medium: I work in many different mediums, so all of them, as I feel like it.
Prompts: none, because I've never needed them. Expect lots of Visionary, lots of Botanical, lots of Spirit, lots of Witch.
How Many Drawings/Paintings: as many as I can, within the limits of my schedule, and with reasonable rest. I want to do a good job, but I'm not going to kill myself for a post, and neither should you!
Goals: to have lots of fun, to work on preliminar ideas for future paintings, to experiment with colour and light, and to flex the muscle a bit by challenging myself to show and sell more work.
Will They Be For Sale? Absolutely! They will be put for sale in November, once the challenge is finished, so if you fall in love with any of them, consider reserving them once they are posted.
Where will they be posted? On all my social media, on the website's Gallery Page and on my Flickr. Just stay tuned!
Do you want to join? I'm not giving any special hashtags to this, because there are already too many versions of this challenge, so I will be using the following ones on social media: #artober #artober2024 #paintober #paintober2024 #drawtober #drawtober2024 #witchtober #witchtober2024

It's Aza and Sheri's birthday today!
Tumblr media
from Artober 2021, before I changed my URL
I wanted to share their goofy original lore, which is that Aza(lea) was the princess by birth, and she had no siblings. Except there was this one noble family who, for some convoluted historical reason I don't remember, had the right to position their heir, Serito, as essentially Azalea's older brother. He was generally an asshole and was gonna get some kind of Connecting With My Fake Sibling story at some point, but before that happened I nixed this lore and just made them birth siblings. And Aza is the older twin now :)
Also everyone should see this gorgeous commission of them that Wazaga did a few years back:

TRAGO DE AIRE. 2021.
This is an old piece, with my old art style, part of an artober wildlife challenge. Instead of a prompt per day, like inktober, this challenge was one illustration a week. Each week had three prompts to choose from, but I decided to use all three in one illustration instead. The prompts were flight, sand, and fur. The way I incorporated the prompts themselves were with the fireflies, the beach, and the seal.
She's a sea creator finding herself on land, and even as her body morphs into something more human0like, her essence, her roots, cannot be denied. Her hair is inspired by jellyfish. Her feet, shoulders, and temples are covered in turtle marks. The fin on top of her head is modeled after a lionfish. Her eyes were painted to resemble a sea dragon.
Currently having the itch to re-do this concept in my current art style.

Sup. Haven't posted in a while because I haven't made anything in a while. So I figured I'd post my drawings from Artober 2021. That's why they all have numbers o3o

My favourite pieces from Cringetober this year.
Vent about art struggles and mental health below break.
Man, this October kicked my ass. I've been doing all sorts of October challenges every year since 2017 and usually half of the year's best art comes from them. For 2021 and 2022 I did a promptless artober/drawtober challenge just to get me back into drawing and painting after burnout and it's worked wonders to get the creative juices flowing.
This year was different though. Massive stress and negative life events have been kicking my ass since May and I had 1-2 months of no drawing in July and August because of moving houses. I've felt like I lost my art ability in that time (not that I was that great to begin with lol) and I hit a slump, with a feeling of regression.
I had high hopes for October though. The daily drawing spurt usually helps with those slumps and I get many sparks of happiness and inspiration. I felt like the art burnout was far enough behind me, that I could challenge myself with a fun prompt list and just enjoy doodling silly stuff.
Instead, I just struggled. Everything felt bad since day 1 (I tried making a new drawing then, but after 2 hours of struggling and just not being able to draw what I wanted, I posted a drawing I completed 2 days earlier that happened to fit the prompt. It was cheating, but at the same time not, because I had made it in one day).
I just felt frustrated, like I couldn't draw or paint at all and those art muscles just wouldn't wake up. And that feeling hit me in the face again and again 31 times. I'm still not sure, what was different this year... Am I not fully aware of the toll this year has had on me and this was just a symptom? Is my dead beat job fucking me up so bad? Was my new and very different sketchbook contributing to the feel and look of making art? Was doing prompts adding too much challenge for me after all? Did the fact that I didn't get as much external validation, affect the feel of everything? (I had 600+ followers on Twitter and this was my first year not posting there, but to new platforms instead so there was wayyyyyy less likes and such. I know you shouldn't care about that but external validation feeds my nonexistent self esteem too well). Did I have too much internal mental pressure to only make amazing shit, because I'm on new platforms where I should build an audience?
I don't know. We'll see how I think and feel about all this as time goes by. We'll see if I'll do promptless stuff next year instead or not even do a challenge at all.
My mental health overall is in shambles and the feeling of isolation, hopelessness, anxiety and dread gnaw up on me every day more and more. I don't know when I'll pick up the pen next, but when I do, I hope I have found a chill and easy way to loosen up and build back that deteriorated skill.

NYT article abt goncharov has comments like 'what is the purpose of this film's existence these kids are just lying' motherfucker how do you think our ancestors survived. how do you think folklore formed. culture. music. art. PURPOSE????? do you think everything must be commodified? sold? weighed to be valued? has the rot in your soul spread so far you cannot find value in anything not spoken in numbers??? it's FUN. THAT'S WHY. THE PURPOSE IS THE ACT, THE MESSAGE IS THE MEDIUM, THE SYMBOL IS THE STORY. it brings people joy for its mere existence and that IS the point. existence is its purpose alone

SKY PIECE
A collab I did with the wonderful icez.25 on Instagram!! I did the line art, and if you head to Iceā€™s page you can see everything beautifully colored!! These are our sky characters!! Iceā€™s character on the left, mine on the right- Ice has all the cool customizations, Iā€™ve got some, but not as many haha. I know what my bio says, however Ice and I have known each other for 10 years or so, and weā€™ve been dying to do something together!! Ice introduced me to Sky: Children of the Light a couple of years ago, and I really enjoy playing it- after a year hiatus or so, as decided to start playing it again and itā€™s gotta be one of my favorite games- the story is really nice, and I love how calm and collaborative it is. I hope yā€™all like it, and please head over to icez.25!
Her tumblr is here
[ID: Digital full body illustration of two characters from Sky: children of the light that are uncolored on a purple background with a white circle background that is slightly cut off at the bottom from the ground. Both characters are running to the left, and holding hands, the smaller front character leading the larger, behind character. sky children have a cape that functions as wings, simple clothing, and full face masks that only highlight their eyes. The front character is smaller, and has her hair pulled up in two braided buns on the top of her head, along with her bangs being twisted on either side of her face. She has a keyboard on her back that is partially visible, and a more bird-like cape. She has a bow tie, and her shirt is tucked into bulkier pants. Her body faces forward, but her head is turned back to the other character. Her mask has a four sided diamond on her forehead. The second character faces solely left, and has a more traditional shaped cape. Her bangs covers her maskā€™s diamond, and she has two braided pigtails with two strands of hair sticking up at the top of her head. She has a long shirt that hangs past her waist, and baggy pants. Her other arm is mostly covered by her cape, but you can see it flying behind her.
Image 2: Close up of the first, shorter character. The crop fully encompasses her body, and the forearm of the second, taller character. The background is mostly the white circle, with the purple visible on the left side.
Image 3: Close up of the second, taller character. The crop encompasses her full body, and is cropped at the first characterā€™s forearm. Most of the background is the white circle, with the right side partially being purple.
Image 4: Close up of the first characterā€™s face. The crop shows her whole head and cuts off before the chest. The background is fully white.
Image 5: Close up of the second, taller characterā€™s head. The crop is cut before the chest, and the background is solely white.
Image 6: Blurred image of the colored illustration with a white logo saying ā€œLEAVES AND INKSā€ along with handwritten type reading ā€œGo to @icez.25 (Instagram) to see the colored illustration!!ā€. There is a white border around the edge of the photo./end ID]

Time to show my ocs, Artemis (they/them) and Sol (he/him)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes they are gay and in love your honor
Their design is based on The Moon and The Sun.
Artemis is an artsy introvert night-person.
Sol is a friendly out-going little guy.
Below the cut, their process and early prototypes
Their idea started with the 2021 Artober prompts "Moon" and "Sun"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When I redrew them, Sol kept a lot of his design, but i wanted to find a similar hair gimmick for Artemis instead of a crescent head.
On the right is one of the first redesigns, on the left more recent and simplified sillies.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's it i hope they get into shenanigans and that i will draw them more

Day 13 Cat
Whoops, I forgot to post this drawing on tumblr.
Anyways I got really blocked and I didnĀ“t finish this challenge. I made this piece that I finished on march 2022, and started the pencil for another piece that I just finished today.
So you get two drawings instead of one this week.
