Today's study Drawn CSP with 1 brush I've been enjoying using to build forms

PLUMB THE FORBIDDEN New ART, wanted to make something with a mystical archives vibe. (Thanks @netizenses.bsky.social for getting me to up my sleeve game!)

Back in 2024, I revisited the world of Elden Ring with my camera in hand. I documented my journey through the Lands Between, its quiet horror and gorgeous art design, and edited them down to a travelogue of over a thousand images. It's time to revisit my journey, with image carousels! #EldenRing

More Krita fun. Photoshop called and was like “hey babe, are we doing okay? I’m worried”

Very excited to finally share my latest painting - Request for Aid I had a blast researching and drafting this one! It was so fun to explore the composition, pose and lighting to find what best described the mood and story I wanted to convey.

Reference vs Art I absolutely LOVE seeing the behind the scenes references for paintings and the jankier the better! So it would be rude of me not to show my own Just a little Daz 3D and Blender here. Nothing needs to be perfect, just enough to bridge the gap between idea and execution!

I wrote a new piece on the topic of overcoming pitfalls and progressing an illustration when you're feeling stuck. Check out the full piece on my Patreon ⬇️ www.patreon.com/posts/how-to...

Reference vs Art I join in with "your reference can look entirely ridiculous and still give you great information". DAZ 3D + Blender. I'm a very strong believer in making your own references. Whether it's selfies, 3D software, traditional sculpting, friends posing... there are so many great ways

Reference vs Art Blender is blendering. 3d refs are super useful people!! Don't be scared to use as many tools as you can during your art creation process.

I too am a victim of the beauty of Witch Hat Atelier and couldn't resist doing some studies from the manga. Side note - the chrome brushes in Krita work so damn well for this style

It's my balloon day and I wish to make the humble request of artwork sharing 🙏 I feel extremely blessed to have made so many trips around the sun whilst painting pictures for my living. What a life, always profoundly grateful that it is mine ❤️✨

New art???🍃 This is simply called "The Ruins" - it was meant to be a quick exercise in composition *last summer*, but then I decided I wanted to render foliage and forget to finish it for months on end. Prints of this and more are available at Inprnt! www.inprnt.com/gallery/jenn...

proper squat form

bits and pieces of older work

so many things to draw but not enough time to draw them all

The key to realistically paint materials is to understand the "Specularity Spectrum" (term made up by me). Once you understand how reflective or not something is, you can roughly deduce how much you need to emphasize form shadows vs reflections (highlights), or whether to combine both.

Book cover I painted recently for the delightful @kuliashawrites and @orbitbooks_us ✨ You can find a behind-the-scenes post on my Patreon if you're curious about how this one came together (link in bio). 🧑‍🎨 Making Bigfoot dangerous and sexy was quite the challenge 😂 #fantasyart #fantasybookcover
