“Proctor’s Gaze”, AD Ovidio Cartagena

My second and final for Magic’s Secrets of Strixhaven. Really really proud of this one.

This is SO good, Danny. Your shapes and colours are always top-notch, but the flow in this one is just something else.

I have the same thoughts about a lot of my recurring symbology too. This is gorgeous, though, Julie, intending it for the traditional media treatment or leaving it as a sketch? Also I can buy Julie Dillion book of sketches when?

Thank you!

I am a convert! I wasn't sure at first but I love it for an easy portable set of colours!

Blue toned pencil sketch with two pencils - one with multiple coloured leads in one barrel and one very bright pink mechanic pencil sat on top. The drawing itself is of a figurative female figure with eyed wings where her head would be and she is sitting on a glass fish tank, all underwater

Using some new art supplies to get started with my next @everydayoriginal.bsky.social due 1st May.

Good luck with the commissions, Elhyana, it's a rough time to do art, change careers, get hired. I hope you find a bit of relief soon!

It's international women's day if only there was a starter back of amazing Black & Femne Developers to support ✨✨✨

“the thinker of tender thoughts” by shel silverstein [an illustration depicting a boy growing into a man. as he grows, his hair grows out as flowers. people laugh at him for it and he becomes sad. he starts trimming off the flowers, but as he reaches the last one he stops. he is then depicted with a smile and a flower in his buttonhole on his jacket.]

What an incredible mark!

I started doing art embroidery last year because my headphones decided to flake vinyl into my mouth. I thought, why not do something incredible that I've always wanted to try? Now I'm doing a larger piece to be framed in a shadowbox.

omg those headphones look amazing! Also thank you for the term 'art embroidery' I'd been trying to figure out where my own attempts at it (nowhere near this good) had been.

Oh I adore this, Eleonor! SUCH good shapes and colour. I'm a sucker for simplicity but you've really got a great sense of character with it too!

Your pencil work is an absolute treat on my timeline!

@brandonsanderson.com thank you for this talk. I've had trouble trying to sum up WHY Ai sits ill with me and what it means for humankind and creativity, but this sums it up beautifully. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mb3u...

oh I love these! As someone who used to try to ask for 'animated' poses in life drawing gesture sessions, I love seeing how the body actually moves!

These are so deliciously buttery, I love your handling of shape and colour!

Thanks Elhyana, seems water painting is definitely my comfort zone

Thank you!

My art / My inspiration

Long may this tradition continue with magic cards, these are all gorgeous!

I was gifted these by a Canadian and can confirm their packaging is gorgeous and their pigments are amazing. As someone who often buys handmade watercolours, these are top notch.

A reminder to any canadian (or any) #watercolor artists. Beam Paints is an Indigenous owned company with beautiful plastic-free hues. Their sparkly metallics are to die for

Having not seen your work in a minute, Mathias, it's so inspiring seeing what you've turned your hand to (and had help with). Seeing all the bts stuff was amazing too. Gave my own waning creative spark a bit of a restart.
