dawn dandelions🫧🌌🌼

Alt text: two dawn-blue rabbits hop (binky) with bursts of yellow dandelions emerging from their soft fur, pastel iridescent leaves unfurl from the dandelions. In the background is black, with small sparkles of dark and light blue. the piece is set inside an oval, pale blue scalloped porcelain frame. the frame is placed on a white background with small blue flowers. About the piece: My partner and I rescued a rabbit earlier this year- when I feel overwhelmed I look at him/pet him(calcifer). watching calcifer flop, loaf and binky makes me feel a little bit better, it makes me happy that he’s content and relaxed. The rabbits are drawn in mid-binky, it’s a type of hop bunnies do when happy. Blue colors represent air (calcifer feels like fresh air, removes bad vibes just by presence alone), and yellow dandelion for sparks of joy amidst the dark.

Funny how you just need to break some angles to turn kitchen environment into a spaceship.

This! I have a suspicion the usefulness of this advice can also hinge on whether the recipient has at least some level of aphantasia. I don’t, I see things very vividly in my mind and so even before I put pen to paper I’ve already went through and discarded/improved a few concepts. 🤔

On a similar note, "your first sketch/idea is never your best" is one of the worst pieces of advice I've ever gotten.

I wasted a lot of time and energy forcing myself past concepts that I felt strongly about because I was made to believe a better one was out there. Often there just wasn't one.

I don't like "Your first draft will be shitty" as advice, because it's a really negative framing.

I prefer, "You have the freedom to be messy creating your first draft."

Anyone crafter knows what their room looks like mid-creation. Writers should be as free to be as exhuberent and messy.

dragonite doodle! 💥
a cartoony, bold-lined drawing of the pokémon 'dragonite' with a particularly warm colour palette, reminiscent of the lesbian flag or a sunset. dragonite is posing as though it is about to hug someone, or perhaps pick up mail, as it is an excellent delivery carrier and takes it's job very seriously

If you didn't know, I was banned by Midjourney 3 times for exposing their infringement and plagiarism. Their AI can very easily recreate stolen training data (even without naming it), so here's a thread of images you can use to shut AI proponents down. 🧵

MY TIME TO SHINE!✨✨✨

#art #BRart #OCs
Digital, full color portrait of my OCs Rose and Sarah, looking lovingly at each other; Rose (she/they) is late 20s, thin, fair skin covered in dense freckles, an aquiline nose and bright green eyes; their hair is shoulder length, dark on the fringe and roots, and teal-colored on the tips, with golden strands here and there. She's wearing a white roses crown on her head, and her ears are covered by feathers, like wings on the side of their head, with the red, yellow, blue pattern of an araracanga red macaw. Sarah (she/her) is a dragonkin princess; she's fat, with tan/golden skin tone, black dragon horns (two coming from her forehead, another two coming from the top of her head), yellow-golden eyes with vertical pupils, and pink and gold scales on her nose and cheeks, like freckles. Her hair is long and curly, caramel-colored, with braids framing her face and flowers decorating them. She has long elf ears, decorated with golden jewelry and pink gems;Sarah is wearing a green leather armor Digital art, colored. My own rendition of goddess Artemis, holding a rabbit next to her face. She has mixed-race facial features (black/white), full curly, white hair and a very freckled, pale face. The rabbit is white with spots on its face, matching Artemis. Both have glowing eyes and a glowing full moon symbol on their foreheads. I made this one for an art challenge years ago, and I chose to depict Artemis with a rabbit bc she's the goddess of hunt, but also as a small reference on how rabbits are related to the moon in Chinese/other Asian mythologies! Digital art Portrait of my OC Jupiter a they/she non-binary person; age 42, with medium length brown curly hair with some white already showing up; on the left side, there's a longer, braided hair section. They have brown eyes, golden/tan heavily freckled skin; they are wearing scifi-themed clothes (green embroidered overcoat, a sci-fi looking bullet-proof kind of vest; a pirate-like hat, pink lenses goggles and a blunderbuss on their waist. Her expression is serious, almost angry, and they have a lichtenberg scar (caused by being struck by lightning) running down the left side of her face and down her neck. On the background, there's a starry space sky, with the planet Jupiter on the top, behind the character. Digital art, colored. My OC, Shizuka Yamamoto ( 山本静夏 ), 22yo, also known as ARASHI/natsu, one of the members of my fiction band drizzle/LAND. Digital art featuring her from the torso-up, and she's posing like this is a promo for the band. ARASHI is Japanese, her skin is golden tan, with freckles on her nose and cheeks; her jaw-length, curly hair is chestnut brown and dyed teal underneath. Her eyes are teal-blue. She's wearing a "stage" outfit, one she would wear in a drizzle/LAND performance, all dark blue velvet and sheer/translucent blue-green dress and shirt, with shimmering golden embroideries. She's smiling at us, posing with one of her hands on her ear, near the sunflower that decorates her hair. Her head is also decorated with gold jewelry that resembles rain drops around her face and on her forehead.

Hey just a little reminder that art improvement is also things like: figuring out what you like to draw, making it easier to carve out time for art, making a fun routine, trying different mediums or brushes, pure vibes, etc

It's not all technical.

A quiet moment during giant dragon scritches 🐉

~2.5hrs, for a very fun #StudyBuddies challenge
Digital painting of a woman in a long black dress, against a background of snowy mountains, resting her hands on the head of a giant blueish-green dragon. The dragon's long serpentine body stretches far back into the distant mountains, and it looks very happy and content as the woman gives it pets and head scritches.
