a grumpy young person with blonde hair in buns wearing a colorful patchwork sweater sits on a set of stairs being teased by a ghost with long white hair in ragged clothes

a half-human, half-draconic centaur in a wide-brimmed hat and red-and-white cloak casts magic. the viewer sees them from the back, translucent wings spread wide.

#artfight attacks on friends from a discord server! @nashew.bsky.social @leef-entropy.pmd.social @venthedragon.bsky.social @swoopyswoop.bsky.social

two pokemon, growlithe and zorua, sitting in a sunny countryside field next to a fence with some puffy dandelions in the foreground. the zorua is giving the growlithe a kiss on the cheek, and the growlithe looks surprised.

a yellow enfield with scars where his wings once were, brown paws, glasses, and a leaf on his head runs across a beach at sunset. he wears a green bandana and leaves swirl around him.

a blue and white horse stands on a grassy seaside cliff looking out at an impending storm. lightning strikes distant over the ocean.

a german shepherd dog with a pink visor embroidered with an envelop wearing a satchel lays facing the viewer against a simple background in brown tones.

#artfight attacks on characters of folks from my daggerheart group!

a black woman with short, braided hair wearing sunset-colored sleeveless robes kneels in a painted forest. light filters through the trees and her spear lays in the grass at her side.

a man in a red-and-gold filigree trench coat, hat, and decorated plague doctor mask and tricorn hat is confronted by a dark-skinned half-elf with glowing eyes and golden hair wearing a lute on his back. the half-elf is asking, "is this who you are, or what they told you to be?" and the man's mouth appears to be stitched shut.

a dark-skinned elf with extremely long, curly hair crouches against a blue painted background. she is wearing blue and gold robes and is smiling at something out of frame.

#artfight attacks on @petuniabubbles.bsky.social <3

two dragons fly over a field of golden grass. one is red with green eyes and curved ram horns and is smiling down at a silver-gray striped dragon with straight horns and a blue-green scarf that seems surprised that he is flying.

a dark blue thunderbird with golden dot-marklings wearing a satchel flies over a black and orange-colored cross fox, also wearing a satchel. the fox is looking up at the thunderbird while he runs along a path lined with yellow grass.

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

AT LONG LAST I FINISH A COMM FROM THE PREV BATCH!!!!! comm of a very lovely and very sad goddess :) #art #commission

A color illustration of a client's OC, a goddess named Center. She is a woman with fair gold-hued skin with purple markings on her cheeks, closed eyes, and long flowing white-blond hair; she is wearing a white tunic-like gown with gold trim and a rope belt, gold accessories, and a crown of laurels. She is holding a sword thrust through her own chest as she weeps.
The background is an art nouveau-style graphic, primarily featuring reds + purples + golds, with celestial motifs accented by a large peony at the top.

Recent commission for @petuniabubbles.bsky.social of their god of pandemonium, Topsy <3 Love this silly lil creature

An illustration of an otter swimming in deep, dark water. They are dark blue with an aquamarine gradient belly and dark stripes on their limbs and tail. They are dotted with glowing spots along their limbs and tail and cast a trail of light behind them. Their eyes are bright blue and have horizontal pupils like an octopus. Ragged seaweed floats diagonally across the composition. Behind them, looming in the dark, is a massive octopus with similar striped markings.

rude reawakening #art #aceattorney

Cubist piece of Dahlia Hawthorne, kneeling up as she wakes behind bars in the icy-teal Sacred Cavern (after being channeled by Maya Fey) She casts a deathly glare at the trick lock over the cavern door. Her hair is a floating, swirling mess, black with ghostly reds overlapping.

Today is my birthday!! Thank you so much for a wonderful year!!❤❤❤ ..a wonderful gift will be a repost of the works 🥺👉👈

let's do this artfight.net/~ghostpipes

A Team Tragedy player card for the online art gifting competition Art Fight for the user, ghostpipes. Five of their OCs are featured. They draw friends and OCs that interest them as well as friendly fire ("attacking" or gifting art to people on the same team) and revenges ("attacking" folks who attacked you), and do not engage with mass attacks.

of course i love the magic dad. who do you take me for #wha #qifrey

Half-body drawing of Qifrey, a white-haired witch from the manga and anime Witch Hat Atelier (WHA), smiling while slicing an apple. He wears a black longsleeve shirt with a pleated collar with a cropped white t-shirt tied at the back that reads "powered by plants" layered over top. The atelier familiar/pet, brush buddy, watches with interest near his elbow.

Part of why the "become obsessed with a blorbo to improve at art" thing is true is because they'll make you do shit you normally might not even try Blorbo is a knight in a fantasy series? Welp I guess I gotta learn how to draw armor now Blorbo has a mech? Welp I guess I'm drawing a fucking mech

I'll never read, watch, or play anything that generative AI was involved in making. sorry. your loss haha (not mine)

Telling your OC lore out loud to friends is so funny because it looks cool and poignant in your head and then actively telling it makes you feel like a 3 year old holding an etch a sketch

drachenmagier @drachenmagier.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Honestly, painting trees with Q-tips is going to be my new hobby, this is a lot of fun. :D I do not think I shared the scan yet, so here you go. #art #drachenmagier #unicorn

Dr. Ashok Karra @akarra.bsky.social · 3mo ago

The money you put into libraries, parks, schools, and museums you get back a thousandfold. Without indulging cliches about social class, it literally raises the conversation. You’ve got people wondering about van Gogh’s colors instead of ranting and complaining. We all see this in our own lives

Happy mother's day to every single person who has OCs

ghostpipes // comms open!@ghostpipes.bsky.social · 3mo ago

It's Mother's Day, so here's one of the best moms I know #ocsky

A woman with dark skin and curly red hair holds her child, a dark-skinned werewolf, in her arms in front of an open window. Outside is a field, a fence, and a tree in full autumn colors. The illustration is monochromatic, with all colors being derived from the same hue (a warm red-orange).
