Hello everyone!

I'm starting this to document my work and experiments. It'll be a mix of commissions, tools I make, experiments, sketches, and maybe art guide or two if people are into that. I'm pretty new to social media in general, so lets see how this goes together ✧(•̀ᴗ•́)✧
A small doggie in a velvet green jacket, posing on a mound of grass with its snout sticking up in the air, like the fabulous animal it is. It's long, wavy, golden fur being tussled by the wind. It has big soft ears, an upright tail, and small, stubby little legs. Painted watercolour and ink style, digital illustration.

Happy christmas + new years!

I had grand plans of making a video to show my process of thumbnails -> final but stalled ...aaand didn't post for ages xD I've learned when something is a hurdle, doing the bare minimum consistently is more effective.
Commissioned fanart for the book series Galaxy's Edge. It features a scarred, battle-worn man called Ulysses Kerensky who is wearing dark grey painted armour, a shemagh, and combat knife. The helms of the legionnaires (lovingly nicknamed "buckets") are central to their abilities on the battlefield :)

Today is my favourite holiday of the year. Happy Halloween everyone :D

The artstyle below was inspired by the work of Oleg Vdovenko. I had no idea painted art could be so visceral/creepy and I find that quite impressive!

Hello! I've got a lot I want to post, but for today I'd like to share a piece I finished yesterday :)

It was a quite a challenge due to the stylised proportions but seeing how happy the client was made it all worth it xD

#commissionsopen #artistsofbluesky #krita #doomfist #overwatch #draneria
A painting of the Overwatch character Doomfist smirking suggestively, slightly drunk and leaning in a doorway in a dark nightclub environment, with ominous soft red lightning. He's wearing his white suit with striped grey trousers, sunglasses, silver earrings, and a rose on his lapel. He has a silver buckle with the initials "DF" and his arms have been cybernetically enhanced in an asymmetrical way. His left hand has an ornate nuckle enhancement, and his right arm has been completely replaced with a robotic one, his outfit is adorned with gold and silver details. Part 1 of the commission process. This image shows a series of composition explorations as simple rough lineart/colour, painted digitally. Part 2 of the commission process. Semi-finished thumbnails to explore mood and lighting options (the client picked #3). General lighting and camera placement explored with 3D, then painted over in Krita.

Happy #PortfolioDay!

Draneria here, I do art commissions :)

My workflow is brief > thumbnails > (repeat as needed!) > final piece, so the client always knows what they are getting.

I also enjoy making free Krita brushes for other artists :D

Last month I made this draft for a physical painting. Not sure when I'll be able to create it, so here's the design for now!

The round mineral is hematite. Fun fact; it's shape is often botryoidal but I chose to depict it as globular in this :)

#commissionsopen #artistsofbluesky #krita #draneria
A fantasy digital illustration featuring an misty, icy river in the valley of a boreal forest. There are massive spherical formations of hematite (a type of mineral related to iron) jutting out of the forest. At the river bank, smaller globes of black hematite sits between chunks of white ice from the river. There are 3 albino fowl birds in the distance and the sky is an iron blue-grey. The illustration has muted tones, inspired by the brown/reddish powder hematite creates.

...sometimes things just don't go right xD

Today I've got some recent portraits that didn't work out on my quest to paint a profile pic I like!

I think this is because I didn't plan well beforehand, so next time I'm going to try using thumbnails :>

#commissionsopen #artistsofbluesky #WIP
Greyscale/Sepia portrait (half-finished) of a woman with dark eyes and pale skin. Portrait (unfinished) of a character vaguely inspired by Minthara (Baldurs Gate 3). She has blonde hair, mauve skin and red eyes and is looking into the distance with a hateful smirk. Portraiture (half-finished) of a young man in a pink suit, making a heart shape with his fingers as he smiles towards the camera. The character/pose was inspired by K-pop photoshoots.

I'm only on episode 2 of Arcane, it is awesome! Please no spoilers, I don't actually know how the plot will go :D

Painted in Krita, 3hrs 30m. It's an artstyle study, original reference: imgur.com/a/arcane-4k-...

Finished up an old idea (10 - 15 hours about 2 years ago, then 3 hours today), painted in Krita

By the way, anyone who knows GW1's Kaineng City gets a 🍪 :D It was one of my favourite areas, and the feeling of the piece was inspired by that. #commissionsopen #artistsofbluesky #krita #draneria
A woman in an underground street leaning against a wooden wall in ochre lighting. She's wearing a white two-piece with ruffles and slightly frayed edges, posing suggestively. Digital illustration (Krita).

(workflow + brush test) made with Krita.

Do you ever work waaaaaaaaaay too hard on something for absolutely no reason?

This lotus study was painted for a single page of a PDF assignment during uni. I found it again recently and thought it'd be nice to share :)

A slightly abstract digital illustration of a lotus flower at 3 stages of life.

🎭 Same character, completely different moods.

I painted this character for a uni project, and later used him as a base for a cinematic villain design.

If nothing else, it's good upgrade from the sad grandpa-energy he had before!

#commissionsopen #illustration #krita #draneria
Portraiture (digital): A man with a strong jaw, menacing red eyes (and even edgier eyeliner) looking toward the camera, on an ominous green background. He has scars across his face, and intricate red warpaint. His face is framed by long black hair, and he is wearing a dark priest robe. Portraiture (digital): A man with a strong jaw, and soft tired eyes (and fantastic lip gloss) looking toward the camera. The abstract background depicts refracted crystal walls in a sci-fi utopian city. He has scars across his face, and is wearing angelic futuristic armour stolen from the city he infiltrated.

Today I'm gonna go over my first commission, and the process :) This'll be a little thread series (1/3). I'd genuinely love to know your own first commission experiences! Or just if it's ever been on your radar. #commissions #artprocess

Below is the piece, a physical edition was delivered too:
A family of 5 pets underneath an oak tree. The central character is Freya, the white dog who is proudly proclaiming herself to be a frog. One of her friends thoroughly believes her, another is egging her on mischievously. Juniper the ginger cat looks at Freya with motherly concern, while Lincoln listens half-asleep in the tree. The scene is set at early sunrise, at the top of a garden full of flowers and mushrooms. The viewer is watching them from inside the house, while having breakfast of strawberry toast and a steaming mug of tea. There is the smell of lavender on the wind from the flowers hanging outside the window.

Still figuring things out, so today I'm posting a redo of some old art I did a while back!

I lost a lot of my early work because it was traditional - never bothered me until recently, but now I get why they say "always keep your old art" remaking things and seeing the growth is fun :D #art #krita
A cyberpunk woman with glossy dark blue lips and sunglasses. She has intense, sultry eyes and afro hair in a short buzzcut, on an acidic yellow background. Her skin is inlaid with pointed geometric shapes in a symmetrical pattern, slightly inspired by the morpho peleides butterfly. A comparison of two portraits the original is a pencil sketch, and it's remaster as a full colour digital illustration. Portrait description: A cyberpunk woman with glossy dark blue lips and sunglasses. She has intense, sultry eyes and afro hair in a short buzzcut, on an acidic yellow background. Her skin is inlaid with pointed geometric shapes in a symmetrical pattern, slightly inspired by the morpho peleides butterfly.
