Today is my birthday! All I want is for more people to see and enjoy my art today 🥰🧚🏾‍♀️

A digital illustration of a couple embracing and sharing a kiss. Nyeema, a black woman with long natural white hair and a patch of black hair is wearing a purple robe full of patterns. Her husband, Siwa, a black man with locs and gold cuffs, holds her face as he kisses her while wearing a blue robe with patterns on it. Both of their robes contain symbols about who they are and their life. Siwa's is full of water, fish, and crocodiles while Nyeema's is full of grasping hands, feline paw prints, and O shapes.

An illustration of a dark skinned elven woman standing in front of the sun. Her body is chubby and wears a two piece outfit which shows off her stomach. Gold Body chains hang from her top and around her stomach, as well as chains that handg from her shoulders. She wears gold necklaces, beads in her hair, piercings and gold cuffs on her bicep and wrists. A sun like gold structure also sits around her waist where her skirt falls from. Her ginger hair is big and provides a halo around her while she also wears a gold crown with a sun on it. The borders of the illustration are like a tarot card and has the image of a hummingbird, flowers and the sun.

A digital illustration of a fairy smelling a flower. The fairy has tan skin and a periwinkle afro. Her dress is made of purple petals and her corset, headband, and foot wraps are made of blades of grass. She has burgundy wings and a lady bug crawls on a leaf near her.

fancy a summer night of dancing to fiddle music with the fireflies? ✨ I really enjoyed drawing this one :) #illustration

Digital illustration of a summer evening full of fireflies and dancing forest animals. In the middle of a clearing between tree is a yellow cat playing the violin. A group of animals surround them dancing- including a rabbit, raccoon, crow, mouse, fox, and bat. All of them are wearing little clothes and seem happy. There are trees bordering the scene with branches, roots, and vines on the edges. Fairy lights are hanging from the trees and there is music and magic in the air around them.
