Fourth post for #DVpit #DVart! Hello I’m Tahni Marie and I’m an illustrator looking for representation! I recently created a picture book for my prek class about a busy farmer and her cat ! Some more pages from that little project I really like ! #PB #kidlit #POC

I was going through my sketches and some concepts I did for @charmaemengming.bsky.social ! She was trying to come up with a jester type character and this is what I came up with !

Good afternoon #DVpit #Dvart ! I’m Tahni! An author illustrator currently looking for representation !! I currently am working on my own stories focused on grief, love and overcoming trauma in a fairy tale esque medium! Here’s a look at one of my projects #PB #GN #POC

A request channel point redeem from twitch! My take on a labubu based on my goldfish girl ! lol this was really fun

Good morning #DVart ! I'm looking to be represented as an illustrator! #PB #comms My goal is to be able to tell my own stories, but as i put those together, I want to be able to help others tell theirs by and grow as an illustrator!

Today at work like … being threatened by 5 year olds isn’t fun but today the threat was so funny I was like where did you come up with that “Miss Tahni if you don’t give me a happy face RIgHt not I’m gonna put a virus on your computer !!!! “

Played around with some of the marker and pastel brushes in the procreate update! It was really fun!

All of my fav futuristic #f vibes are in “Found Her,” made by @queenofgoldfish.bsky.social for LORE OLYMPUS. I think of the mag lev travel in my book every time I hear it! (which is a lot, lol. Love ep. 128!) #DVparty Day 5: #ThemeSong #YA #LGBT #SFF #Querying open.spotify.com/track/5njZj4...

DID YOU KNOW... that I run the @cartoonist.coop 's weekly mixer for professional cartoonists? No ladder climbing here! Only chill chats with other exhausted comickers who understand the end of year crunch. Join us today to hop on in!

A post for day 02 of #DVParty Introduce your main character ! This is Anenome, a young ethereal being born with the purpose of fulfilling a promise made by those who came before her. She’s very nurturing to everyone and everything around her … almost to a fault.

WE'RE LIVE!!! My first-ever Kickstarter needs your support! Please consider checking out this fun Dark Romance fantasy smut comic!

My main advice I give to ppl who want to write comics: 1: Study screenwriting and filmmaking. Learn camera language, the 180 degree rule, when to use types of shots for diff emotional beats, etc 2: Study storyboarding, especially how to compose & stage a scene. 3: Read so. many. comics.

Some pieces from a little farmer picture book thing i made for my prek sped class ( for circle time!) I cant fit all the pages on here but it was really fun to do!

Watercolor practice #11 A wind chim. I couldn't get a sense of transparency. It's so challenging! 🤨😟

Before #preDV & #DVPit thought I'd repost some pitching advice(1/7) Here's a simple pitch rubric: [CHARACTER] is/lives [STATUS QUO] until [INCITING INCIDENT]. Now if they don’t [MAIN GOAL] then [CONSEQUENCES]. OR [MAIN MOTIVATION] only problem is [MAIN CONFLICT/HURDLE] e.g. my old 140 char pitch:

Beautiful commission of my character Rumi by @actionhankbeard.bsky.social !!! She’s so beautiful…. And I can’t stop hyper fixating on how ethereal her eyes came out !! Thank you so much !!! I’m gonna treasure this forever!!!!

I love them so much!!!!! … sorry we’re closed is probably one of my favorite games … I finished it a few weeks ago but I keep thinking about it … I finally had time to put the pins in my pencil case !! @alamodegames.bsky.social I love your game with all my heart!! ( and these pins too !! )

Stream Doodles!!!

And on the subject of #realartatters: AI poisoning tool NIGHTSHADE is now free for artists to use: venturebeat.com/ai/nightshad...

I had no idea that there was musical numbers in Pixar’s “cars” , let alone ever seen a cars movie. My coworker looked up a sing a long for cars and I had a mini heart attack thinking the Doc x Lighting McQueen love song by the atomic twins would pop up

Stream Doodles!!!

Last little expression to make the number even! (I could probably do a billion, but I want to move on to the full-body poses next when i work on her during the next stream!

saw a sad thread from someone who's grown up believing art depends on "talent," and just wanted to reiterate that ANYONE can make comics, with ANY level of artistic skill, and it's FUN and LIFE AFFIRMING to embrace that experience.

Sketch that I came across I still like! I think if I could change something, I’d try to push her lose a lil more ?? I think it’s a few years old
