The first snowfall! ❄️ I'm still obsessed with our weather here, it's been so fun 😊

My entry for @grafitstudio.bsky.social for their #grafitartchallenge 🥰

#digitalart #ocart #art
A digital artwork of a thin white female character wearing form-fitting winter clothing (a blue jacket with white sweater underneath, yellow knitted hat with matching yellow scarf and gloves, black leggings and boots, with white socks) facing away from the viewer, standing on a dirt path with trees and bushes on either side, as she's glancing up at the nature around her, enchanted by the fresh falling snow.

This one was murder lmao. But it's done! Another #washiween piece for this year :) ✨

#washiween2025 #mixedmedia #traditionalart #art #drawtober
A traditional artwork drawn in a sketchbook of a red potion bottle, colored in with red Crayola marker with white charcoal and gel pen for the highlights. There is smoke coming out the open top. There are flowers around it, blue, orange, and purple, all made from various washi tapes making up each petal. And yes, it was hell to cut all of them out, thank you for appreciating my efforts lol. The leaves are also washi tape. There was a lot of cutting in this, I hated it, my hand and back hurts. There is also a light blue background (Copic B21). Next to the artwork are a few of the tools (markers, ink pens, tapes) I used. It looks better in person, rip.

QRP with your skull art! 💀
A photo of a sketchbook with an artwork of a feminine figure facing away, wearing a pink & salmon colored dress with flowers. The dress whips around the page and encircles the figure. The face is a skull, looking to the right toward a bird standing on their raised hand. The hand and part of the forearm are just a skeleton. On the top of the skull are dozens of flowers, cut out from washi tape. The background is half white and black, with the black at the bottom stippling out as a loose gradient into the white top half. Around the sketchbook are the tools used to make the piece (pens, pencil, marker, tapes) and faux flowers as social media photo op flair.

#Washiween2025 #mixedmedia #drawtober #traditionalart #art
A photo of a sketchbook with a traditional artwork, primarily black ink, of a thin-figured nonbinary witch with short hair and pointed ears, wearing a long black gown with silver accents in the middle, with a silver shawl draped around their arms, and a witch hat with a silver band. One arm is on their hip, the other is propped up on a classic brown, straw broom. They're looking off to the side with a grin. All silver details are done with washi tape. There are pens, a marker, and tape next to the artwork.

The end result isn't what I expected, but the process was certainly an adventure from start to finish. :) A #Washiween piece, catching up with the themes from last year's prompts.

#Halloween #art #mixedmedia #drawtober #Washiween2025
A traditional artwork made in a sketchbook. A ghostly figure sits on a set of stairs with brown, dead plants at the base of the steps. Behind her is a starry sky (made of washi tape) and a full moon (also washi tape), with a line of trees and street lamps on either side of a path, leading up to a glowing distant city. Mediums used: paper scraps, washi tape, Crayola markers, ink pens, colored pencils, and graphite. Next to the artwork are two washi tapes and some pencils and a marker.
