Here's more art! Pretty witch girl in a magical forest with tree shapes that make no sense! But pretty colors! I seem to be totally failing at posting on this platform. I'll probably just delete everything and start over. Or just delete everything. #witchart #procreateart

Referenced from an Instagram selfie. I guess I'm in a mood for painting portraits these days.

More #earthsworld portrait studies, this time with reference included. This is just how I do them, in a single PSD canvas side by side, so I don't need to look at a different screen.

Zsigmond the Fastidious, one of my first dolls. #artdoll #artdollphotography #fantasycreature #supersculpey

A very old painting! The line art for this one is in my free digital coloring book ❤️ (link in the profile)

I was a huge fan back in the glory days of Doctor Who, but stopped watching sometime during Capaldi's run. Anyone still watching? I'd love to hear recommendations for standalone episodes from the current era! #doctorwhofanart #ninthdoctor #tenthdoctor #eleventhdoctor #caricature

Space elf pirate girl. I went back and forth between Photoshop and Blender with this one - it started as a sculpt but when I started painting over it I'd go back to 3D to add in detail and bring it back over to 2D... #spaceelf #spacepirate #characterart

Cute little pic from a year ago.

//Simikiel, Blade of Absolution 🗡️

And another batch of portraits from #earthsworld #portrait #caricature #digitalart

Portraits from #earthsworld photos. #portrait #caricature #digitalpainting

Drawing I made while I was still figuring out tools in Procreate. I love just drawing these weird rock/tree/organic shapes and especially going in with white to add the highlights. I could just do that all the time... #procreateart #digitalpencil

“follow the light” (theme ‘sermon’)

I painted this around 6 months ago and I love it because it marked a minor breakthrough in style and technique - i finally grew comfortable with brushes in Procreate. #procreateart #floatingcubes

Painted last October during my visit to Portugal and at THU. #procreateart #fairyart #trojanhorsewasaunicorn

One of my original doll guys, called Pignoslav. Roughly 8" tall, face is sculpted from #supersculpey, and most of his costume is from EVA foam and faux leather, plus lots of random bits. All photos were improvised while I was walking around my neighborhood. #artdoll #toyphotography

Energy and time keep dwindling so here's some more older art, throwback to the first #septempera paintings I ever made and unofficial birth of Goblinette 💚

Question for fellow artists - how often do you feel the need to push yourself and paint more ambitious pictures vs. just finishing something fun and relaxing? #procreateart #gnomewizard #fantasyart

Another recent painting, with a bluish goblin this time! #procreateart #goblin #goblinart #allgoblinsarebeautiful

Tortoise sculpted from two-component epoxy and using nail art gems and pearls. Photographed on an ornament of a building doorway, with additional decorative elements added in post. #arttoy #toyphotography #turtleart

Watercolor painting of all the main dragon characters from the old Rankin and Bass animated movie "Flight of Dragons" this was one of my favorite movies growing up and a nostalgic one for me! #Fanarts #RankinandBass #FlightofDragons -I couldn't fit Bryagh in so he is going in the next post ;)

Throwback to my cosplay days - it's me under the hood as Ommadon the Red from Rankin Bass' The Flight of Dragons. Pic was shot in studio on a blank background, I tried to photoshop in some scenery and atmosphere effects... #theflightofdragons #ommadon #ommadonthered #rankinbass

I must disclose a dark secret - I used stable diffusion to generate a bunch of idea and style references for this picture. I didn't copy any of them directly, and I painted everything by hand (in Photoshop). I wanted to do a cyberpunk-dystopian take on Ivan Bilibin's illustrations. #zharptica

Cute little froggy made from foamclay. #artdoll #arttoy #cutefrog #cutetoad #toyphotography

Orc woman fighting a dragonlike beast from the swamp! It caught her bathing, I guess :D #orcwoman #procreateart #fantasyillustration #allgoblinsarebeautiful

Sky Pig Observation Duties, personal #art from 2020. At some point I saw a pig in the clouds on the WIP and went with it because I am a responsible and serious person. Skypig loves you. 🐖 4k-6k high-res on patreon.com/zhillustrator. Prints on demand via DM or www.zhillustrator.com/contact

This picture was published in the Codex Obscurus, a witch themed art book put together by @spiridude.bsky.social It's hard to stand out among more than a hundred amazing artists who participated, so I made a doll instead of a painting. #spacewitch #artdoll #arttoy #supersculpey #witchart

Recent goblin painting. I was mostly driven do paint weird tree trunks. #goblin #goblinart #allgoblinsarebeautiful #procreateart

My most famous creation. It became a meme, fake news, basically people don't know what a real baby platypus looks like and never read even the first comment before sharing... It's still damn cute. #babyplatypus

Painted this one over three years ago, still one of my favourites. It's been a huge confidence boost for me when I did it. 10 years after finishing art school and 7 years as a working professional, I finally felt that I know how to paint. #goblin #goblinart #goblingirl #allgoblinsarebeautiful

Let's start with my latest work and go both forwards and backwards in future posts ;) Painted in Procreate, over the past year I firmly fell in love with the oily smudgy brush. Back in PS i used to import a lot of textures scanned from paper to add a more natural feel, but here I just paint.
