Hi! I'm Kirsten (also known as Dragonlight or Draconli), a concept artist, an illustrator, and a lover of dragons and mermaids (sometimes, combined)! I do both digital and traditional, though my mainstay is inking, especially lots of tiny details!

🎨 kirstenandersenartist.com
Digital color artwork of my oc, the Pumpkin Prince, with large branch-like horns, a jack-o-lantern hat, and loose dark messy suit, sitting on top of a pile of jack-o-lanterns and holding a poisonous candy apply in one hand. Ink drawing of a merperson, wearing seashells and jewelry, surrounded by a school of fish and a sea of seaweed. Extremely detailed ink drawing of a large half-woman, half dragon with extremely large tree-like horns laying next to a small mossy cascading waterfall and caressing a human skull. Digital color artwork of Ichimoruken from the game Onmyoji in his cherry blossoms skin holding a very small pinkish-white dragon in one hand while cherry blossoms fall from above.

📆 Preorders Open: 18 Oct - 18 Nov

Preview of the Page of Chalices card by draconli. It depicts young Powder with paint stains on her face. She is holding a cup above her as she inspects it. The description says "Powder is full of ideas, as shown by the array of her bombs at the table and the cup she is decorating with planets and stars. She holds this cup up high, viewing her new creation but also showing the wonder and admiration of her creativity. It is time to start leaning more into your creative side and dream once again about the future. Try tapping into your inner child and view the world with the wonder children often have. There may be an adventure waiting for you out there." Preorders open until November 18.

In my city in CA, they are currently running ads about bullying.

Every time I see those, I think of our current government, as an example.

After calling Schumer a "Palestinian," Leavitt refers to "Gavin Newscum." So she's just ripping off her boss's smears now.

A half-dragon, half-human OC with St. Bernand's Lilies. Just a little break from stuff. Playing with other paper!

Just a thought: I am thinking of updating my commissions - using either a Google form or Vgen. Also, Christmas commission gifts, maybe? Hmmm... Lot of little ideas!

I really do love Portland over my hometown, though.
