Karin's Art @hena-draws.bsky.social · Oct 14
Hi #PortfolioDay , I'm Karin, a freelance illustrator in the fantasy genre. I paint a lot of things for games and books, but mostly characters, items, and fantasy maps. I also offer pet portraits. Always open for new opportunities!

Portfolio links in comments and bio.
Painting of a fish pond in top-down view with floating lilypads. Instead of fish, we see some koi-colored mermaids in the water. A female mermaid is playfully encouraging a male merman to follow her. Illustration of a longsword with a curved, bronze blade. The pommel is in the shape of an elephant head with ruby eyes. Old-style fantasy map illustration of a fictional world in black and white line art with a parchment-like background. The water areas are in a darker shade than the landmass. There are some stains and discoloration on the map surface. Digital oil color portrait of a tortoiseshell colored cat posing in a human-like fashion, wearing a victorian-era styled blue and white dress.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

It's time for another #FundamentalsFriday and while checking the tag, I realized I never shared this handy practice sheet of face planes from different angles I regularly use in my classes. It's especially helpful to study how perspective changes the proportions of the face ✨

If you're an artist wanting to break through in TTRPG illustrations and feel like you need an Art Directors feedback on your current portfolio. Feel free to reach out, comment or DM me here.
I feel like the industry is hard enough as is. I will reply slow but I'll do my best to support! 💜

A tall tiefling bending his head down to kiss a shorter halfelf. He is holding the other's face and both are bathed in torch light. Line up of four characters. The first is a Goliath with grey skin and black markings, he is wearing leather armor and carrying an axe. The second character is a grey firbolg, wearing leather armor and a tan cloak. The third character is a dwarf dressed in light blue and grey bard clothing. The fourth character is a half elf wearing leather armor and a light purple cloak. A reference of my oc's tattoos. They are a bunch of ocean and sailing themed designs, except for the ones on the back of his hands which are a rose and a howling wolf. A side profile silhouette of Dan Troop from the Lawman tv series. He is holding a gun partially in frame with the words "The Lawman came with the sun there was a job to be done" written along the front of his silhouette.

Hi, I’m Khaos, a traditional artist with a love for the strange. My work often blends the eerie and the beautiful, inspired by long strides in the wild, forgotten places, the quiet presence of animals and the fragile balance of nature.

Watercolor painting of a snow leopard and a wolf, leaping through a universe of stars. Watercolor painting of a fox and a tiger, soaring through a colorful cosmic realm. Watercolor painting of a snail which has a rodent skull instead of a normal shell.

A great battle between the army of the Blades of Khorne and the Lumineth. The Aelves seem to be in trouble in this furious assault by Chaos! The army of the Flesh Eater Courts breaches the Reclusians' fortress to free those they believe to be prisoners. The Orruk army defends its territory by attacking the Citizens of Sigmar with fury. The Idoneth army lands impetuously on the beach dominated by Chaos.

“Planetica" album front cover Interior of a rusty blue-gray spaceship with a huge porthole in the center. On the left an astronaut with blue mohawk hair in a worn suit and helmet in hand looks out where a planet with a strange magenta atmosphere can be seen at the bottom right, illuminated from above by a bright star, at the top right a space probe yellow. Inside the spaceship, cables hang from the ceiling and on both sides you can see control panels made up of digital and analogue instruments. At the top, the Cosmo Cocktail logo with the typical 80s chrome effect. In the centre, in white, the title Planetica with a simple geometric font. The Hermit, Major Arcana of Tarot: an old man floating on the top of a mountain holding a staff that makes energy flows from the ground and an owl spirit giving him the lamp of knowledge. Acrylic gouache on hot pressed cotton paper. Portrait of a shirtless Prince who, with his eyes closed, points to the sky with one hand while three doves take flight on a purple background with some damask decorations and a gold frame. Digital painting. Portrait of Pier Paolo Pasolini. In the center is a black and white portrait of the poet with his hands clasped in front of his mouth; below him is the white outline of his murdered corpse with a copious stain of red blood dripping from it; on the sides is a view of the sky from the beach with clouds spilling over, partially covering the portrait, painted with visible brush strokes. Around a white border on which, at the bottom, the dripping of blood continues. Digital painting.
