The Girl Who Looked Up. Shallan Davar. Prints available! Painted with my Procreate watercolour brushes.

I want this so much.

Born unto Light It's our golden boy! I love Adolin so much. If you're wondering where his helmet went in the middle picture… probably to the same place that Kaladin's shirt went in the last one. 😅

When today's Cosmeredle is from a book you haven’t read and only know two characters of. 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟩🟥🟨🟥 🟥🟩🟥🟨🟥 ❌❌❌❌❌ cosmeredle.net

Stormblessed. One year of obsessing over these books. Go me!

Our world. Our rules. Watercolour on Fabriano cold-pressed paper. From "Yumi and the Nightmare Painter", by Brandon Sanderson. Because art is, and always has been, about what it does to us. To the one shaping it and the one experiencing it. #art #noai

Interior illustrations for Bryan Vanderhoof's Rosharan cookbook! I had so much fun with these.

A fun project with Bryan Vanderhoof (@bryanvhoof on Instagram), who's putting together a Rosharan cookbook to bring to Dragonsteel Nexus. I had a lot of fun with Bridge Four (and a rare smiling Kaladin)! Left to right: Hobber, Skar and Drehy, Rock, Renarin, Teft, Kaladin, Moash, and Lopen. #art

I'm in love with #the_color_wheel! And also with #the_colour_wheel. I was actually surprised with how well this worked.

Giveaway of Dungeons&Dormice mugs from Donovan Pottery! I'm so happy with what the team has come up with. Look at those dice sets! 🤩😭🤩 donovanpottery.com/collections/...

Yep. I slid under the closing cave entrance of the local post office yesterday, throwing the employee my very last packages to the US, and then rolled out, barely retrieving my hat. Deutsche Post sent a mail on Friday that conveyed utter bewilderment while still trying to sound professional.

In the works: a scene from Yumi and the Nightmare Painter. Such a wonderful, wonderful book. #brandonsanderson #cosmere #wip

I want to get excited about CR 4 and stuff in the works, but I’m worrying about my business instead because that absolute idiot is throttling world economy with his idiot tariffs. I’ll close US shipping tomorrow. If you like my art, please consider supporting me on Patreon: patreon.com/jennydolfen

A fun commission I did for David, of his badger character in Shardplate! ShinHan Pass on Montval cold-pressed paper, A4 size.

I'm proud to announce that I'm teaming up with Donovan Pottery to bring you Dungeons&Dormice mugs, paired with matching dice sets, coming soon! 🤩🐭

If it's international left-handers day, I’ll bring up Evi! She's probably the opposite of Maedhros - a leftie forced to forego her left-handedness. Boy, how I’d hate that. Also, I’m left-handed too, and Maedhros was the first literary leftie I ever encountered, so that’s something!

STOP 🛑 🖐🏻 This is a WIP checkpoint QRP with your current WIP! A fun badger character commission for one of my Patrons! #Art #WIP

"Yes, Renarin knew emotion. Today he basked in it. This was the future he wanted." Brandon Sanderson, Wind and Truth ShinHan Pass hybrid paint on Fabriano cold-pressed paper, ~28 x 28cm. The Kholin boys are having a good week, in my art at least. 💞 #stormlightarchive #traditionalart

"It seemed that whether or not she had time to spare, they were going to find it." Adolin and Shallan saying good-bye in the shower. Full version on my Patreon Discord! 😶‍🌫️https://www.patreon.com/posts/96658600 Painted in Procreate with my watercolour brushes.

My first NSFW Stormlight Archive art! I hear you can post spicy stuff on Bluesky? Still censoring the safehand for all you lewd Vorin peepers. *tsk* Full sketch is up on my Patreon Discord! 😎

The Princeling and the Bridgeboy being insufferable to each other. 😂 I love these two so much. From "Words of Radiance" by Brandon Sanderson. Painted in Procreate with my watercolour brushes. #stormlightarchive

The Stormfather’s Judgment Commission, watercolour on Canson Montval paper, A3 size. From "The Way of Kings” by Brandon Sanderson

DuckDuckGo search filters out AI slop even from image searches??? 💖💖💖

Currently on the workbench: Stuff from Way of Kings, Words of Radiance, plus Wind and Truth. Check out my Patreon for more over-the-shoulder glances like these! 😙 www.patreon.com/c/jennydolfen #stormlightarchive #artistsonbluesky

Long time no post! I've been busy with the lineart for this commission of the post-highstorm scene from the Way of Kings. I love how this is coming along. #stormlightarchive #artistsonbluesky

Share your couples art! 🩵 (I hope platonic counts) (Adult halfling) #kiss #love #stormlightarchive #criticalrole

#sixfanarts, #stormlightarchive edition! My Patrons (plus my daughter) supplied me with six Stormlight Archive characters to draw. All watercolour/gouache in my sketchbook. #traditionalart #watercolor #gouache

Show me how you draw armor ⚔️ #BrandonSanderson makes me draw entirely too much of it. XD

Making me pay for bread is killing my sandwich shop.

"I am Unity." Dalinar Kholin opening the Perpendicularity and combining the three realms. Watercolour on Canson Montval paper, just under A4 size. #stormlightarchive

Drumroll! I did my first watercolour since 2021. That's four years and two months during which my eyes wouldn’t let me paint the detail I wanted, but now I can again (with a heavy-duty magnifying glass, but still!) Shallan was a perfect subject. 🩵 Watercolour on Bockingford paper. #stormlightarchive

QRP with your most popular piece on bsky! By FAR this one from #criticalrole. Vax and Keyleth.

Post an old illustration you still like. [2003] Sometimes I find it worrisome that I have decades-old art I still like (when everyone else posts art that feels like last Tuesday).

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know! (I had to scroll down to number 21 before I knew the first one. What does THAT say about me? That I never watch shows with characters that are like me?) I'm pretty happy with that turnout. openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac...

HUMAN artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you

"Why he froze" She wrapped her arms around his right arm, like a child clinging to a favored toy. Worried. Frightened. “Something’s wrong inside you. But I don’t know what.” (Oathbringer) #gouache #stormlightarchive

Gouache-a-day, nr. 8: "He actually smiled." Kaladin’s last sight of Tien. #gouache #traditionalart #stormlightarchive

More gouache-a-day, day six: Hesina getting a letter from her son's battalion… #gouache #stormlightarchive

Bridger of Minds Painting Rlain in gouache! I‘m teaching myself gouache (again). You'd think if you hadn’t been able to paint traditionally for years you’d fall back on something you know, but that would be entirely too easy. #stormlightarchive #gouache

Also, print explosion in my shop! =D Go take a look! www.etsy.com/shop/JennyDo...

Decided to put some colour on the Kaladin sketch I did a few weeks ago. 😶‍🌫️ #stormlightarchive #kaladin

Doing some digital gouache to get the hang of layering in an opaque medium, and dry-testing possible book-edge painting designs. Definitely want a 700+ pages book for that. 😂 #digitalart #tolkien

Painting day with my daughter! We broke out ye olde gouaches and sketchbooks, me painting Syl, her using a painting by Ruth Wilshaw as reference. #traditionalart #gouache

I almost feel bad for this mind horse. If it helps at all, it took me forty years. 😅

Chaperone Pattern going from "no dividing by zero!” to “no mating!” was hilarious.

Who recognises these old pieces from 2004? 🤚 I've decided to bring collections of my old art to the place I still deem relatively safe - Patreon. You can find this 2004 "Fields of Gold"-era Tolkien collection there, and the best is that most of my Patrons get automatic access!

I had a joke about Narcissus, but in reflection, it looked better than it was.
