A pretty quick portrait of Soren reading some papers during the day. I drew this last night after thinking to myself that I want to try drawing him this weekend, haha.

#kariavalonart #art
This is a portrait of a man named Soren. He concentrates on the small stack of papers he's reading, so he pays little attention to his surroundings. He stands next to a wall with many random documents pinned on the surface. Adding a frame helped me finished this illustration.

So since last month, I have mostly been occupied with making artwork my longtime character named Soren. After a long time, I finally have a default design/appearance for him..

#kariavalonart #art
This is a sketchy portrait of Soren, a man looking up at the viewer with a smile. He is holding a small paper or photo in his hand.

「遠く遠く空の彼方
願い湛え流れる河...」

...I kept recalling the ending song "Altair," especially the above section of the song near the end... so I decided to draw my favorite alchemist Ayesha.

#アトリ絵 #アトリエシリーズ #AtelierSeries #kariavalonart #art
A half body portrait of Ayesha Altugle, the protagonist of "Atelier Ayesha." She is smiling upward at the viewer while being basked by the twilight. She is walking along the field. Admittedly, I drew this partly to learn how to use some tools in CSP, so I hope I can make more artwork using them in the future.

お誕生日おめでとうございます, ライザのアトリエ!　
このゲームを遊んでたのは良い思い出です。
実は昨年にこのイラストを描いた。

While I haven't played all of the games from this trilogy, I generally had a good time.☀️

#アトリエシリーズ #ライザのアトリエ #AtelierRyza #kariavalonart
An illustration of a smiling Ryza in front of her alchemy cauldron. She holds a flask with one hand and is stirring the magically smoky cauldron with her other hand. Behind her is a collage of locales from the first three games. Overall, this illustration is framed with filigree and elements derived from her alchemy staves and design motifs.

Hello~ I recently completed Emi's newest design after figuring out more about the kind of story she would take part in. She's a character I made a long time ago, so I'm always pleased to see her growth overtime. :D

#kariavalonart #ocsky #art
This is a full illustration of Emi as an adult. She is youthful and quite spirited. She adorns her hair with flowers and ties her long wavy hair into low pigtails. She wears a sailor collar frill cardigan with princess sleeves on top of a layered dress. And, she wears platform shoes along with frilly ankle bands.

I finally figured out a new design for my character Emi. Her full design isn't ready for sharing yet.. but I figured making a simple portrait works well enough. (*･ω･)

#kariavalonart #ocsky #art
A portrait of smiling Emi as she appears as an adult. She has her long wavy hair tied into low pigtails. She wears assorted flowers on both sides of her head. She is wearing a thin cardigan on top of her dress.

I quickly doodled this Ayesha last year on a postcard and colored it digitally with my usual software. If I recall correctly, I gave the original drawing away as a gift.

#アトリ絵 #アトリエシリーズ #AtelierSeries #kariavalonart
This is the pen doodle of Ayesha looking cheerful. A quick doodle of chibi Ayesha looking cheerful~

「うわぁ、謳うことで、ここ全部緑になったの！？」
「えへへ、すごいでしょう？私だってまだ信じられないもん。」
「・・・ステラードでも謳ってくれる？」
「えっと、そう簡単にはできないと思うけど・・・」

I'm grateful for the chance to draw Ayesha from "Atelier Ayesha" & Luca from "Ar tonelico II" together. They're in a forest gathering some kururuku fruit.

#アルトネリコ #アトリエシリーズ #kariavalonart #art
Two women from different worlds gathering some kururuku fruit together. Ayesha and Luca happily converse as they make their way through the brightly lit forest.

I drew this to use as an avatar at other places. I think this turned out cute.(*･ω･)

#kariavalonart
A chibi portrait of my current persona of a sort reading a book. She has long flowy hair and wears an oversized poofy hat adorned with flower pins. As things go, it takes her a while to process her thoughts.

( ・∇・) hello🎶I made a new artwork of my longtime reyvateil character named Shia Plines. She wears this outfit whenever she activates specific song magic.

#kariavalonart #cosmocrystal #コスモクリスタル #art
An illustration of a singing young woman named "Shia Plines" looking happily at the viewer. She is wearing a long sleeved dress with bell sleeves and layers, ornate headdress, and platform mary jane shoes. Behind her is a verdant area with an enormous tree in the distance, a river passing through, and some buildings such as homes and windmills scattered in the distance. There is a lot of greenery around her as well.

It’s summertime.. ☀️
This is a portrait of Ayesha I drew over a year ago. She is outside walking about on a warm summer day.

I think at that point, I've drawn a version of her set in every season.

#アトリ絵 #アトリエシリーズ #AtelierSeries #kariavalonart
This is a portrait of a young smiling woman gazing at the viewer. She is holding a large frilly parasol out on a warm summer day. She has long wavy hair and is wearing a sleeveless dress.

13年おめでとうございます,
アーシャのアトリエ 🌸

While waiting for a long time at an unusual place during my recent trip to Osaka, I painted this portrait of Ayesha with my phone. This was based on my memory, so I tried my best to recall the key points of her design.

#アトリ絵 #アトリエシリーズ #AtelierSeries #kariavalonart
A painterly portrait of Ayesha Altugle from "Atelier Ayesha." She has long wavy hair and bright gentle eyes. She is wearing her default outfit from the game she is the protagonist of. She is smiling at the viewer while holding a bundle of flowers.

This is a dream-like illustration of Infel flying on Soope. On Metafalica, they see a flowery landscape, rolling hills, and a stream. There is the tower of Metafalica behind them. Infel is filled with immense joy, wonder, and awe as she takes in the view around her. She hugs her beloved companion doll Mimimi.

After going through the story so far, I've grown really fond of Hyacine and little Ica! They are really fun to have in the game, too.

oh.. I think FFXIV's house auto-demolition timer for North American servers is going back on pretty soon...

Somehow or the other, I managed to preserve my WoL Runelucia's plot for many years. However, I am unsure if it's worth renewing my subscription merely for that...
A cropped screenshot from FFXIV. This took place in late December 2024. Runelucia in winter wear stares at a bomb-themed alchemy pot inside her house. She is pondering about her life choices as of late.

It has been a while since I last shared some cafe photos, so here they are. The desserts and coffee were splendid.

As usual, I am usually there with @asmodette.bsky.social !!

#KariDetteEats #KariPhotos
Two cups of coffee, melon bread patfait, and two small desserts are on a tray. A slice of matcha cake, caramel pudding, and two cups of cappuccino are on a tray. Everything is sitting on a wood table with some cozy wooden decor in the background. A tall oreo parfait and two cups of americanos sit on a tray. Behind it is a window that is revealing some rather poor weather...

This evening, I painted a portrait of her character Ibis for @nyochio.bsky.social. I haven't drawn her in such a long time! I hope you like how it turned out~

I recently purchased a new standalone wacom pen that was compatible with my tablet. It felt a lot more comfortable and ergonomic to use compared to the pen it came with.

I tested the pen out by drawing a quick portrait of my character named Sia.

#kariavalonart #art #ocsky
This is a simple portrait of my original character named Sia smiling confidently at the viewer. She is wearing a frilly headdress on her head, a blouse pinned with an enormous bow, and a jumperskirt.

So I was commissioned recently by @nyochio.bsky.social to draw cake cats of Xochitl and Lepus for her~ they turned out really cute! Thanks for counting on me~~

#kariavalonart #commission
Two cake cats are lined up in a row. Both cats are enclosed in a mooncake-like shell and they are staring blankly at the viewer with nary a thought. Both them have design elements and accessories derived from the characters with the same names. Xochitl has a little mask sitting on top of her head, wrist cuffs on her paws, and ribbons on her tail. Meanwhile, Lepus has a ribbon sitting on the left side of her head. On her right paw is a bracelet and her mane is quite fluffy- so fluffy that it is sticking out quite a bit.

Hello! I was requested to doodle Shalotte as a nurse, so here we are. Get well soon~

During our holiday, @asmodette.bsky.social and I visited several different cafes. I'm glad that I was able to enjoy some new parfaits!!

#KariPhotos #KariDetteEats
There are two seasonal oreo parfaits and two americanos on the table. There is a view with green foliage outside. There are two cups of siphon coffee, a melon parfait, and two different mochis. Two mugs of hot americanos with a chocolate fudge cake on the side.

Ahh wow.. I drew this back in August 2023.
This is a portrait of Melia from "Xenoblade Chronicles."

On that note, I haven't finished playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 yet... it'd be great if I resume soon.

#ゼノブレイド #Xenoblade #XenobladeChronicles #kariavalonart #fanart
A portrait of Melia from Xenoblade Chronicles. This version of her is from the extra scenario that was included with the remaster. She is smiling at the viewer with a slight inquisitive look on her face.

This began as a phone sketch and then later finished it as a colored sketch with my tablet. She does have a name and identity of a sort, but I am kind of waiting for the right time to share any of it. I hope that happens sooner than later, ahaha..

#kariavalonart #art #ocsky
A long-haired woman holding a book smiles at the viewer. She is wearing a beret and a tiered jumperskirt with a short-sleeved blouse. She is standing behind an open folding window. Several fluttering butterflies dance around her and the jar filled with some flowers next to her.

Hi! This is what @asmodette.bsky.social and I had this afternoon. Some afternoon iced americanos and pastries~ the pastries were really delicious!! We also bought some to go as well.

#KariPhotos #KariDetteEats
On a tray placed on a hard wood table, there are two glasses of iced americanos and a plate with two different pastries. One pastry is filled with vanilla custard and fhe other has a caramel pudding placed inside it. Behind it is a paper bag filled with other pastries. The bag text in cursive says "Happiness is with us always!"
