A long-haired man with the legs and horns of a bull stands semi-nude, lifting a veil over his head, with a snake and flowers at his feet and various plants around the edges of the image. Each corner of the image has a different symbol (top left, earth; top right, water; bottom left, planet earth; bottom right, death) and item (top corners, ax and two-headed calf skull, bottom corners bull horns).

The harder you fight, the more it tightens, until you suffocate yourself. #princexknight #prince #knight #originalcharacters #ocs #digitalart #digitalillustration #smellyrottentreesart

HEAVEN FORBID A MAN HAVE A LITTLE HAPPY TRAIL 💔💔💔🥀🥀🥀🥀

Tvmblr nuked me for this already, I’m gonna label it myself on here so I don’t get got by the system. But yeah, rendered this thing. #smellyrottentreesart #originalcharacter #ocart #digitalart

A sketch of Arroti I did recently. #digitalart #sketch #smellyrottentreesart #artist #writer #originalcharacter #oc

San’ary character reference. He’s still young here but it establishes his basic appearance for most of his arc. I impress myself with how consistent I am with my character’s faces. He really does look like his father. #art #characterreference #digitalart #originalcharacter

To no one’s surprise, my hyperfixation on Predator was resurrected by the two movies coming out this year. Based on the design of Feral Predator from Prey. #predatormovie #yautja #digitalart #fanart

There was a convo going around a bit ago about how artists should discuss their work more & while I do think there’s value in that, I am telling you a lot about my characters based on the symbolism alone in their respective pieces if you take the time to look at them

Akasyr with His updated sword. #digitalart #digitalillustration #originalcharacterart #oc #sketch #originalcharacter #artistsonbluesky #artistsonbsky #art #smellyrottentreesart

And the sketch, because it looks quite nice too. #sketch #digitalart #digitalillustration #originalcharacter #oc #smellyrottentreesart

Arroti. I like drawing Him as His more villainous flavor. Which is the canon flavor, by the way. #originalcharacter #digitalart #digitalillustration #smellyrottentreesart #artistsonbsky #artistsonbluesky

A redesign of my high priest, Khet. #characterredesign #characterdesign #characterconcept #digitalart #originalcharacter #artistsonbluesky #smellyrottentreesart

Sharisa and Akasyr, again. I experimented with underwater hair a lot, I think it looks alright for what it is. #digitalart #originalcharacters #smellyrottentreesart #artistsonbluesky #artist

It’s so frustrating watching the art I post get maybe two likes, and then I post a low-effort statement about a ship dynamic I like and it gets fifteen likes in one day. I know it’s stupid to complain, but I am an artist first before anything else and I’d like for people to actually see my work.

OH MY GOD NOT EVEN A SECOND AFTER POSTING HAHHAHA

A piece for Valentine’s Day. Two lovers, Chaos and the Storm. Let us pray the gods of Bluesky do not nuke this piece as well. #originalcharacters #art #artistsonbluesky #smellyrottentreesart #writer

I believe in separating the art from the artist (sneaking into their studio and stealing paintings right off the easel).

Anyone know where Kendrick Lamar got those jeans? Asking for a friend.

Being into vinyls is constantly lamenting the fact that a single album costs $45. Gahhhhhh

You’re such a talented artist!
Thank you, it comes from making so much bad art.

Color me impressed, Bluesky. It took you all of two seconds to label my art as adult content. I had thought the watermark would cover it enough. Hoho.

Chaos as the Tower. Based on yesterday’s sketch.

I did a more fantasy-cartoony-ish style than normal because it was more just trying to figure out anatomy again. I feel like a lot of my latest pieces are stiff and I need to get back to the basics.

I’m fairly proud of this little doodle. Especially His legs. They are hard to draw. #originalcharacter #smellyrottentreesart #art #oc

I wish all artists the ability to look over at least one of their works and sigh with a content 'I made that :)'

Being an artist is all fun and games until you spend hours scrutinizing a detail that is dissolving your brain that literally no one else in the world would even notice.

Sharisa and Akasyr, ocean gods. I feel like this piece delves into their respective personalities a bit better than my other ones. #originalart #digitalart #art #originalcharacters #smellyrottentreesart

Ju Xueyang again. Not sure I like drawing people at this specific distance/position. Ah, well. #art #originalcharacter #oc #smellyrottentreesart
