#HarrowTheNinth #Art
Drawing of Harrowhark Nonagesimus from The Locked Tomb, a slender young necromancer wearing flowing robes, a tattered cape, rib cage armour, skull face paint, and a sheer veil. She has her hands held out before her, holding knucklebone prayer beads, over which hovers a skull. The background depicts a highly stylised window inspired by gothic architecture that shows a view of deep space.

It's my birthday! As is now Bsky custom, I would love a boost of my art! I'm an artist looking for work, specializing in things fantastic, mythical, and/or historical.

Would love to fill Level 36 with TTRPG and Book Cover work from clients big and small!
A strawberry blonde woman wields a trident in both hands, she floats above a puddle of water which is rising and spiraling around her feet. The woman is dressed in pirate garb (a purple and white polka-dotted headscarf, white chemise, purple bodice and skirt, and teal overskirt/scarf.) Her hair is in a loc-like style, with golden loops segmenting them. TEXT: Pistolheart, A Western Campaign supplement for Daggerheart by Carlos Cisco A train with a big green crystal in the front is coming toward the viewer while two gunslingers, one a fungril and the other a clank, leap from their mounts (a roadrunner and a robot horse) onto the train. Bandits on top of the train fire at them with guns. A drawing of a young minotaur woman in a pink gi with sakura petal embroidery. Her eyes are closed and hands folded in meditation. A spot illustration. A Half drow woman with shoulder length white hair and lavender skin floats, surrounded by purple magical energy interspersed with dragonflies. She points a cross-bow designed with dragonfly motifs off-screen, one glowing bolt nocked and ready to fire, with two more floating at her shoulder. She wears dark half-plate underneath a tabard and vest in purple hues. A tall redheaded woman in adamantine plate armor (sans the arm harness) sits on the railing of a wooden ship, leaning forward against her great sword. Wind blows through her hair and flags tied to the ships rigging. The ship is sailing over clouds and barely visible mountains. Her rucksack sits at her feet.

Hello and thank you to the new folks who followed me these last couple days! When I'm not making book covers, I'm usually hacking away at my long long list of personal projects. I'm currently finishing up a wallpaper and a digital colouring book, hopefully soon!

🐺Wolves of Danu banner art🍄‍🟫✨
An illustration for our upcoming comic, Wolves of Danu. A red haired woman named Áine is looking over her shoulder. She has a feral, fearful look in her eyes. Her hand is pressed into the fur of a large beast. The beasts bloody teeth hang over Áine's left shoulder and is all we can really see of him.

Pack it up boys we've made a social blunder
#StardewValley #Art #Comic #ArtSky
Comic page, starting with Harvey passing by, pricking his ears up at a conversation my farmer, Mel, is having with Leah. Leah: Bye Mel! Mel: Bye, Leah! I'm heading off to do some DIY surgery. Harvey, panicking: What in the—DIY surgery?! DIY SURGERY?! Harvey grabs Mel by the shoulders, bloody grip style, while Mel jumps in surprise: DIY SURGERY?? WHY ARE YOU DOING DIY SURGERY? I BEG, YOU PLEASE JUST COME TO THE CLINIC! I KNOW IT'S NOT AS FANCY AS THE HOSPITALS IN ZUZU CITY, BUT I PROMISE I CAN DO EMERGENCY SURGERY IN A PINCH!! (Aside) Oh Yoba please tell me she's been using sterile tools at least— Harvey, tearfully: Oh Yoba, the infections— Mel, interrupting with a hand on his shoulder: Harvey. HARVEY. Mel: Harvey, I'm not actually surgery on myself. I'm only talking about emptying my period cup! I just call it surgery because taking out the cup can be messy sometimes. Harvey: Oooooooh. So you were just talking period cups? Mel, nodding: Yup. Harvey: I see. Harvey: And it's such an ordeal that you call it surgery? Mel: Yup. Harvey, eager to be helpful: I know! What if I did surgery for you? Panel of Harvey, face full of panic, surrounded by bubbles of text: "What if I did surgery for you?" repeating around him in various sizes and emphasis. Mel, embarrassed, jams her hat down on her head. Harvey, covering his face with his hand: ...Please forget I ever said anything. There's a bubble in the corner with Leah laughing uproariously.

I knew my heart
#art
A low-angle close-up drawing of two people lying on the grass at twilight. The image is focused on the person at the back, who is gazing at the person in the foreground with an expression of adoration and dawning comprehension (he just figured out he's in love). The other character, whose face is slightly blurred due to the camera focus, has her eyes closed with a peaceful expression on her face.

Study of La Belle Dame Sans Merci
#art
A study of the painting La Belle Dame Sans Merci, featuring a man in armour standing before a woman on horseback. They both have brown skin; the man has shoulder-length blonde hair while the woman has long and flowing black hair, atop which rests a flower crown. She's leaning over the saddle to smile down at him playfully, while he stares up at her with a devoted expression. The horse, which has a black coat and wears armour pieces that matches the man’s, is stamping a foot and staring at the ground.

illustration but I think in creative fields generally a lot of 'success' is just hanging in there as long as you can and it is natural that you'll make friends with people who have similar points of view on the industry and share your same irrational 'not giving up' mental illness

Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.

They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

I suppose now is a good time to brag about my new website (that is still not mobile friendly, oops)

Hi I'm Ann/Wyrdle, an artist from Malaysia who likes comics, zines and fictional old men (not my entire personality, I swear). I like drawing angsty, tragic, character-centric stories 💛
