A painting in watercolour, a dark blue background with white paint illustration over the top. A long curling dragon weaves around the outside, with a small girl in the centre, her eyes shut, holding her hands gently in front of her. Small white outline leaves are dotted about the place decoratively.

Gave myself some time to do some painting the other day and I'm really pleased with what came of it ๐Ÿ˜Š Watercolour with white gouache and plenty of pencil over the top for texture and definition.

Hi I'm Emily, an artist from the UK. My thing is fantasy, folklore and fairytales and I created a world called Strangehollow. Here's one of my more recent dragon paintings :)

An illustration of a little girl, pale and freckly, brown hair, wearing an oversized orange jumper with a green frog on the front, green shorts, and baggy yellow socks. She's looking up in awe, surrounded by sketched drawings of various animals, including a bat, iguana, worms, woodlice, a fox, and snails.

It's little me! โœจ Celebrating who I was a kid, in all her weird and wonderful glory, by drawing little me surrounded by the beasts and creatures that I was utterly obsessed with at that age (nothing has changed since then, honestly...)

Right-wing freaks use the word 'Woke' instead of the classic Nazi 'Degenerate' to describe good things for two reasons; its easier to spell, and it allowed them to steal something from black people.

I managed to bag one on eBay which saved me a small fortune on shipping and import tax :) Worth a try!

Also, the Bat'leth is legit. My amazing friend and wonderful partner teamed up and MADE me a solid steel, full size, custom Bat'leth for my birthday ๐Ÿ˜

A book cover titled "The Warmth" by Paris Paloma. It shows a yellow outlined dragon-like head rising from abstract dark blue shapes with a warm orange background and small yellow star above its head.

My capacity for drawing has been drastically low for months, but something that rarely fails to get me creating something is #ParisPaloma lyrics and songs. Had a bunch of fun making this one into a book cover.

one great mystery of our age is how the only way to motivate rich people to work is to give them loads of money for no reason but the only way to motivate poor people to work is to take away loads of their money for no reason
