Gonna turn these space cats into mini sticker sheets! Fingers crossed people want something like this, they're really fun to make but I'm only doing four right now to test the waters 👀 These should be in my shop early December if mail isn't too backed up!

Hope Estheim sketch I did on stream today! I'm a pencil artist at heart so it's always so fun and relaxing to go back to it. 😌❤️ Hope is genuinely one of my favorite FF characters and it's been so fun to revisit the trilogy this year!

Detailed portrait of Ganondorf from Tears of the Kingdom. The painting is more refined with individual brush strokes apparent and a lot of jewelry and accessories adorning his form. Detailed portrait of a client's OC from a romance novel! The painting for his face is smooth and refined with various shades, and his curly hair has a lot of lineart detailing. Detailed portrait of a client's furry OC! His fur has a lot of brush strokes visible in different shades of color, with less reliance on pure lineart. Detailed character portrait of a client's OC for another romance novel! He wears extravagant skull makeup over his face and exposed neck and a leather hooded jacket, giving him an entirely monochromatic color scheme.

Made space cat progress on stream this evening! I wanna do at least one more lineart and then I gotta solidify the colors and themes for them all. I like most of them so far, but not yet sold on the green one or the astronaut idea...

#art #Farisart #cats
WIP showing my space cats progress from today's drawing! Several of them are based on planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Mars) while a few of them are still undecided.

Traveling gives me a good excuse to draw with pencil on one of my art pads again!
Did some Sword of the Sea fanart, drew half of it while flying on a plane 🌊😌🩵

#art #swordofthesea #farisart
Pencil drawing of the main character from the game Sword of the Sea. He's centered on the paper. Behind him a massive sun sets over undulating waves, dolphins and fish swimming in arcs through and above the water.

Been working on emoji designs for my Twitch channel! It's entirely new to me, emojis are so different from what I usually draw (Details For Days) but that's what also makes this a fun new challenge!
They're Exocolonist-flavored too, because of course 😌

#TeenageExocolonist #Farisart #emote
Waving emoji of a smiling Rex. He has a paw print on his palm, heterochromia eyes (one blue and one brown), dark skin, dog ears, and cream-colored hair with black spots. Happy love emoji of a smiling, closed-eyed Sym. He's holding a giant heart, has purplish skin, elf ears, and long dark hair. An eyes emoji of a Faceless. I wanted to add at least one more eye for the emote, but it didn't read well at the small size, so I axed the idea and went for a traditional 'eyes' silhouette while still featuring the tentacled-maw below.

Finished portrait commission for a client's OC!

The hair took a lot of time... but I had fun with this and I'm really pleased with how he turned out! I think this was my first time creating a character based on a vibe board of various references 😌

#art #Farisart #comm
Portrait illustration of a young man. He has dark hair and blue eyes, and gazes at the viewer intensely with a slight quirk of his lips. He wears a black leather jacket with the collar popped up and several necklaces.

Man remember when I said I'd finish this a month ago? Hahaha... 🫠 I VASTLY underestimated how much time I'd spend working on this piece, but it *is* getting there, slowly but surely!
It's fun seeing how parts of the WIP have changed over time!

Finished commission for a special friend! ❤️ I drew this guy over four years ago and it's been a pleasure to draw him again and see how my skills have improved since then 🥰

#Farisart #furry #comm #art
Full-body painting commission of a red-haired beast. His head is turned slightly and he stares at the viewer with a playful smile, his eyes sparkling. One front paw is crossed over his chest while the other hangs down at his side. He appears to be floating, or perhaps lying down on his back.

POV: You're his best friend and/or partner (or Sym)

I FINALLY DREW DYS YEEEAAAAAH!! I'm so glad I made him smiling and gave him the 'casual clothes' vs adding his armor over top, I think he's very cute and he turned out good. ;_; ❤️

#IWasATeenageExocolonist #Dys #IWATEX #Farisart
A half-body portrait drawing of Dys from I Was A Teenage Exocolonist. He's smiling at the camera in a soft, slightly flirty way, and he's removed the armor covering he normally wears over his shirt for expeditions. He has short dark hair with rainbowy highlights, a tattooed left arm, and wears a black and red sleeveless shirt with an orange armband on his right arm.

If you see this, post a redhead 🔥

Almost thought I hadn't drawn a redhead in recent years, and then I realized.... it's him...

Portrait of TotK's Ganondorf in his Demon King form. He has bright red hair, ashen skin, and a fanged smile. Portrait of TotK's Ganondorf in his Gerudo King appearance. I designed a fanged, golden mask for him to wear in this one! A stylized gerudo symbol floats behind his head.

Third art fight attack this year, for Zinniaberry of their adorable Wings of Fire OC, Zinnia! Aaaaah I love dragons and Zinnia's colors are so delightful and cheerful 🥰

I'd like to do one more attack but I may not have time for it... we shall see...

#artfight2025 #Farisart #WoF
Portrait painting of a colorful pastel Wings of Fire dragon OC belonging to Zinniaberry, for art fight! She has a light blue body with a creamy yellow stripe that eventually leads into soft pink fur on her underside. She also has leafy ears comprised of the same color combo + a green center, and some stamen-like antennae that drape down her neck, reminiscent of a flower. Her eyes are a silvery white. Pink flowers float around her portrait.

Getting there... probably finish it tomorrow?? Maybe? I had to adjust a lot and wish I was better at perspective, but I'm really happy I've made it this far! I've never drawn such a huge character scene before 😳

#IWATEX #TeenageExocolonist #wip #Farisart
WIP painting of a beach scene with the main cast (11 characters!) of 'I Was A Teenage Exocolonist'. There's still a lot of sketchy and unfinished areas of lineart and colors, and the background is flat.

Hello yes I am still very much a Viktor fan 👀 Just put a couple new keychains in my shop, one of my Herald Viktor design and another of my anomaly art! I also have a few Viktor stickers and a print available!

New stickers drop!
www.etsy.com/shop/ArtbyMe...

Marz, Tammy, and Tang from I Was A Teenage Exocolonist (Sym was already there), and some fantasy deer!
I plan to draw the full #IWATEX main cast and release stickers in batches of three. Dys will be next, who should the other two be?

#Farisart
Four vinyl stickers featuring my art of characters from I Was A Teenage Exocolonist. Starting from the top and going clockwise: Sym (purple skin with long dark hair and clothes), Tammy (olive skin with long pink hair and a dress), Marz (brown skin with long multi-colored braided hair and a blue jacket), and Tang (white skin with short silver hair and a lab coat). Three vinyl stickers of my original fantasy deer art. Top left is 'Joy', a deer inspired by tropical elements with fronds for antlers and an ocean moving within its body. Right is 'The Watcher', a guardian spirit of deer made to resemble both deep space and ocean. Bottom left is 'Shell', a deer with a broken body that is still forced into animation by a roiling darkness within.

I never make reference sheets for characters but I put one together for this guy!!
I wanted to make this because of art fight, and now that I have, I'm glad I did, it's really cool seeing multiple poses for my OC and I love how he's turned out. 😌

#artfight2025 #Farisart #oc
Reference sheet for my monster alien oc named 'Light'. The sheet shows him in three different full-body poses; he has light blue skin with tan hands, feet, wings, and antennae. His body is humanoid and sexless.

He's done!! I drew this for #TrueRefDT005 with the free pose reference they provided. It was a ton of fun and great practice, and I've nailed down some more ideas for this character + creature design!
Still working on a name for him, hoping to enter him into #artfight this year 👀

#Farisart #OC
Drawing of a humanoid creature perched atop a square pillar. His skin color is light blue with tan and orange accents; there's a star-like shape in his chest with tattoos around it, and he has a tattoo on his right shoulder. He has long limbs, his forearms covered in dark sleeves with gold patterns, and his legs are segmented. Four tentacle-like antennae curl back from his mask-like face, and four wings extend down from his back. A white symbol floats above his head; this symbol is unique to him, none in his race will share the same pattern. His name is crafted from the hum that it emits, and continued by the tattoo on his shoulder.

Drawing one of my weird guys again! Trying to figure out some specific characters for my world, and using references for posing (always very helpful, cannot understate how good (real) references are).

#Farisart #art #oc
Sketch WIP of a light-blue humanoid creature posing on a pillar. It has thin antennae on it's head, very long limbs, and wing-like appendages coming from it's back. There are a few other references of this creature on the edges of the canvas.
