this month’s wallpaper is up on patreon!

Hi! I’m Elio, a queer illustrator based in Italy, and I sell my art :) here’s some of my stuff! You can find it here: ko-fi.com/thesunxix/shop

Sale ends on monday!

i painted the Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrénées! it’s part of a series of 13 paintings i made for a calendar, published by the french Éditions Gypaète 🤍🚵 #procreate #tourmalet #pyrenees #mountainart #bike

i saw horses in the fog while hiking in the pyrenees, and it was kinda mesmerising. i painted this spread the next day, sitting by the fireplace, and i still really like it. #sketchbook #sketchbookartist #gouache #art

I have an ongoing set of work that I am calling the "long canvas animal series". These are four of my personal favorites from it: Pale Antelope, Leopard, Tiger, and Black Rabbit What animal should I draw next?

Good bird! #art #illustration

making art in the time of AI lately i've been getting more questions (and occasionally downright accusations) of using AI in art and music. rest assured i have not and will never touch that garbage. thank you

i'm having so much fun with acrylic gouache but i’m considering going back to plain gouache for environmental friendly reasons. do you have any efficient tip for cleaning and disposing acrylic paint water in an eco friendly way?

i’ve just shared this month’s exclusive wallpaper on patreon :) it’s a painting of the Matterhorn, a mountain i’m lucky enough to live close to. it’s as majestic in real life as in the many pictures you’ve probably seen! patreon.com/alexiawinterhalter

i slept there two autumns ago, and it’s still such a vivid memory. i’m glad it’s living in my sketchbook now. #sketchbook #art #landscapepainting #skegchbookartist

i think i’m now going to paint every day between 11am and 1pm during winter. it’s when the sun hits my desk, and i’m addicted to that warmth 🌞

Witching out is such a cozy activity don’t you agree? Even more fun with friends (esp furry friends). What ritual do you think they’re performing 😌 #illustration #cuteart

i’m so in love with the autumn sun hitting my desk, especially while packing orders
