Sketch for another creature. #illustration #surreal #surrealart

A purple and green dragon is draped, lizard-like on a branch that hangs over a pink and blue hued lily pond. It has grabbed a fairy out of the air and is about to eat it.

If you see this, post your painting/drawing of a dragon 🐲

'Breakfast', watercolour on board 2019.

I haven’t shared any progress on this in a while, but I spent 6 hours today adding tiny stars bc I’m obsessive and if something was slightly off I’d wipe it off and repaint it lol. #wip #fantasyart #darkfantasy #oilpainting

Just a doodle of a branch I saw by the lake once. Well, what my brain saw anyway. #cryptid #illustration #surrealart

Closer and closer and closer. Lots of tiny details and lightning left, but I have to wait for her to dry. #traditionalart #oilpainting #surreal

Space! #illustration #scifiart #fantasyartist

I have to*, queen of typos today

Another wip. I haven’t add more depth to the hair and fur and then just some general glazing and tiny details. Oil painting takes forever but it’s by far my favorite #traditionalart #wip #fantasyart

Thank you!!

I’ve been working on this painting for a bit and she’s like 80% done I think? I have lots of tiny detailing and fixing some areas left, plus blending fog and moon and all of her hair and light body details. Hopefully I just need a couple more sessions. #oilpainting #traditionalart #fantasyart

Wip of a new piece bc I got mad at and abandoned the other painting I was working on lol #fantasyart #wip #traditionalart #oilpainting

A recent procreate sketch using charcoal brushes 🔋🔋🔋

Progress on this today… she’s getting there but she’s far from finished haha #traditionalart #darkart #creepy

Omg watercolor does take so long too! I’ve ruined so many watercolor paintings bc I’m not patent enough that I legit just quit painting with watercolor lol

Underpainting I started today because the other bird made me angry lol. I think its tail is positioned wrong but it’s fine. I love oil painting the most I legit zone out and don’t notice time passing, but I do tend to get flustered with how long it takes lol #traditionalart #oilpainting
