This fought me for the better part of a year. I got angry with scale, trudged through her colors, and I’m still not sure about her. But be kind to her, we’ve been through a lot together. // “Beginning”

Is it an orange sunrise or sunset? Up to you really. The sky is filled with forgiving clouds, pink crystals like thorns hover across the horizon. Purple mountain peaks make way to cavernous cities powered by light. A six legged dragon weaves through the crystals. A turquoise ocean reflects sun and city, lapping against fallen crystal edges. A girl and a small dragon companion take in the scene.

My ficus has a new leaf and there was a bunny in our front yard 🥰

Illustration of a woman of Asian descent, cropped, fringed dark hair, wearing a tight crop top of twisting dark fabric with matching elbow guards, with dark red baggy pants and pink sneakers. In an offensive battle stance, light on her feet, her powers form two circlets of searing magenta energy: one hovering above her crown, and another lower, splitting her stern expression, and reflecting off of her wild hair. Two more halos seep from her hands, luminescent threads of power dripping from perfect hoops of blinding pink. Vignetted behind her sits an abstract, painterly cityscape. Closeup of her hands. The fingers are midway through a curl, loose but attempting control of the bright power that encircles her hand. It took so freaking long to get the other hand right but this one for whatever reason was way easier. Closeup of her face, her two halos of light framing her eyes.

“No Kings” text painted on an orange circle with a slash through it. The “O” in “no” is a skull with a bleeding crown. The text is painted on a diagonal baseline, invisibly crossing the slash the goes through the orange circle in the background.
