CALL FOR PORTFOLIOS: Hi team, I'm seeking artists who specialise in small animals, ideally in a traditional style (though digital execution is fine). I'm after experienced artists who are used to delivering to deadlines for clients. Drop me a link to your portfolios!

✨️Hey freelance artists!✨️ I get job inquiries that I can't take on sometimes and I'd like to be able to send these clients a link to a thread with artists who do commissions! Share some of your art, what work you do, and an email adress here💚 No AI! (I'm open for work too: sylthuria.com)

So excited to share the picture I've been working on for @paulscottcanavan.com's mentorship, this was such an amazing experience and I've learned so much and pushed myself with this piece. I'm very proud of myself. Just got to manifest those MtG work emails that I hope are in my future!

If you were wondering why I haven't been very active these past two months... Here's the reason! I had the wonderful opportunity of taking Paul Scott Canavan's mentorship class and I had a BLAST learning all sorts of new things about art and improving my workflow. More details in the Alt ✨

Digital painting of a humanoid ranger riding a cat-bird creature in a lush forest. The goal of the mentorship this artwork was made for was to learn how to achieve a Magic-the-Gathering quality of rendering, and I really felt like I improved a ton, especially in the process of finding and creating solid references (including in 3D). More than 55 hours were spent into this single piece.

I received a call for illustrators from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. They're looking for someone to draw 5 realistic, color illustrations about lives of free and enslaved Africans and African Americans in New York State during 17th-19thc.

One of the illustrations I did for No Place Like Homebrew 💚 A young artist and his unsettling paintings... It has a cool backstory, I can't share it (you can read it in the book!) but any ideas what this artist's secret is?
