Another mushroom studies page in gouache 🌿🍄✨

Some quick rocks inspired by @maddybellwoar.com ‘s rock video

I'm new to gouache and attempting one or two simple studies every weekend; today's my first attempt at a tree! (thanks to @maddybellwoar.com's YouTube tutorials and her brushes!)

I created this painting for my chapter of an upcoming book, Painting Fantasy with Gouache by @3dtotal.bsky.social 💖🌿✨ So honored to be featured there among some of my favorite gouache painters! 🥰

I'm looking for stories about how AI is killing creative work, and I'd love to hear from you—artists, writers, illustrators, actors, designers, editors, voice actors and narrators—if your job or practice has been hit. This is going to be a big one. [email protected]

Mushroom studies! 🍄🌿🍂

Good news, I'm having my, hopefully, last surgery in a month or two! This should conclude 15+ months of health issues, surgeries and recoveries that put a brake on my art and wellbeing, physical and mental. ko-fi.com/zhillustrator Thank you for all the support so far, I haven't been alone in this.

Still have a few openings in my fall schedule if you need a book cover or something 🗓️

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners: Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing! I also updated quite a bit of information too. I hope it will help somebody! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Hi #portfolioday ☀️ I’m a Polish illustrator & 2D game artist. I create in traditional & digital media, usually celebrating nature or small moments of everyday life. I love to encourage my fellow artists, and hope to teach art one day 🌱 ☕️ My shop with wallpapers & prints: ko-fi.com/vexnir/shop

Hello #PortfolioDay !! 💥 My name is Nanna, I'm a danish illustrator who mostly draws and writes for my 7 original characters! I'll be opening commissions very soon to cover some expenses, so I figured i'd get some of my stuff out there 🫶

some quick little nature studies for the heart

Happy Solstice! 😊💖✨

Finished! Proud of this one 🦚. An exercise for me in confidence and layering. I'm usually afraid to go too dark or that I will create the dreaded "overworked mud." From a class by Rick Surowicz. #Watercolor on paper 9x12 Arches cold press. #art #painting #aquarelle #landscape

Some virtual plein air studies! 🍃

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

happy pride, i love you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍⚧️

class is in session!

New YT video is up! 🥰 Sharing my experience completing a ✨mini✨ 5 minute a day painting challenge for #pleinairpril youtu.be/YXdp5HK3LVc

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm! For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste) Need to find your representatives? Here you go: 5calls.org

All 30 of my 5 min. thumbnails from PleinAirpril!✨ I really enjoyed the experience, and I'm working on a video to share my thoughts about it! I definitely recommend this little mini challenge 😊💞

The painting process is up on YouTube! 😊🌿✨ youtu.be/Fs6O-gBu23s

A lost house in the forest. If i was about to remake this painting i would redo the house design, i like the forset by itself but not the house hahah. #BackgroundPainting #ConceptArt #2D #DigitalPainting #EnvironmentalConceptArt #illustration

Here is my illustration for @abigbat.bsky.social 's mentorship. This is my first time painting an animal ! I aslo met lovely and talented fellows. I highly recommend Paul's mentorship 🫶 #illustration

Sometimes I just can’t resist doing an ink drawing before working on a full oil painting. It’s a fun way to get the ideas flowing. Plus, black and white ink art has always had a special place in my heart! ♥

haven't done mapcrunch since last year's #pleinairpril opps lol

On my livestream yesterday, I finished a piece based on "The Frog Prince". I love textures and Art Nouveau, and the plant chain brush made by @maddybellwoar.com was absolutely perfect for my willow branches! Thank you, Maddy! Here's the speedpaint. And here are my Artist Links.

Hello Everyone!👋🏻 I’m the new kid around the @bsky.app Here’s my first digital plein air panting of spring 2025! Woohoo! It’s so gratifying to complete a project and not lose interest. WIN for me! Loss for “The folder” 📂 of incomplete projects.🤭 Ref. is from MapCrunch chosen by @maddybellwoar.com Ty!

Day 08 of #pleinairpril just n e and my dead trees 🥰 #gouache #pleinair

Hi #PortfolioDay , I’m still freelancing rn but hold out hope for the dream of in-house work someday! I love painting color & light (my fav color is orange, can you tell?) and have design experience in props, VFX, backgrounds, & more! 🌿Portfolio: artstation.com/saralanart

It's been 30 years of A Goofy Movie, and 31 years since we briefly lived in Paris while my dad worked on it! Truly one of the coolest things as a kid, to hang out at the studio or watch pencil tests over dinner.♥️ Also eternally grateful to mom for secreting away a bunch of original model sheets:

'Dandelions,' was painted by the Danish artist Bertha Wegmann around 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth.

💙❤️ all the #PortfolioDay posts! Illustrators, I’m an executive art director in Scholastic’s hardcover picture book group. Interested in working together? I’ve created an illustrator contact form just for you! 🤗 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
