Bright and spring-inspired artwork of two fantasy, female characters in front of a market cart, filled with vegetables, eggs and alcohol demijohns. Zofka, the character on the left, is a 30-year-old woman with greying wavy hair. She is carrying a sack of oats over her right shoulder and has a delighted expression looking at the alcohol demijohns. She is wearing a bright pink doublet with big sleeves, a beige shirt, rose trousers and knee-high dark leather boots. To her waist she has strapped a sword, a water gourd and a rope with several banner sygils tied to it. To the right of the image is Fien, who has pointy ears, 6 arms and long dark blue hair hair. She has freckles across her arms and a silver circlet on her head with two pieces of cloth hanging in front of her ear. She is wearing a turquoise dress tied with a pale belt, soft leather shoes and a pale, crowskin bag that she's opening up in preparation for getting some of the items from the car. She also has a coin in her hand to place in the Honesty Pot. The border around them is spring peas.

I've missed writing and making art of these two, so I'm planning to make one art piece for each month of the year, showing their blooming love and charming adventures.
This sketch is for March: Zofka and Fien discover an Honesty Market Stall on their travels.

Artwork of a nonbinary character called Berry, with greenish skin, pale eyes and blue and blonde hair. They're wearing a purple crown cap, a pink eye earring, a black and pink shirt with a blue jumper on top of it with the Windows 95 logo on the front. Around them they have graffitti-style marks and a border made from dots in shades of the rainbow, with two bugs making their way along it similarly to Pacman.

Meet my oc Berry, Tinkerer/Beastmaster of the Dream ⚙️🪲

They spend their 9-5 creating objects in the back of their shop, sorting through request letters from the Dream Folk with Phea and jotting down new ideas for bugs and other whimsical critters.

4 rough sketches of 2 of my OCs, Harry Thorne and Bergamot. Harry is a man with a brown mullet, moustache and blue eyes and Bergamot is a woman with green skin and purple hair with an undercut (designed after the Bergamot flower). In the sketches Harry looks cheerful and cheeky and Bergamot looks mocking and enraged.

Getting back into the rhythm of things after Easter with a handful of quick sketches based off some of my fave animes (GTO and Gintama).
Depicted: Harry Thorne and Bergamot.
Can you tell what their personalities are based on the sketches? 🤭😡

#timelapseart #surrealartwork #fantasyart #artreel

Digital sketch of a character with a fishbowl for a head, with a wreath of bloomed dandelions around it. Inside the fishbowl is an explosion of colours and stars that trail upwards at the top. The character is wearing a scarf made from granny squares and a red jumper and has reddish hands. He is holding Erebus the spectral cat, who is gently placing a paw against his head.

This week's Cheeky Tuesday sketch- Adam and Erebus 🎨🐈
The colour scheme of this one gave me a really hard time, but thankfully I didn't give up and flip my desk over, and the current colour works for the vibe I want to convey.

#sketch #surrealart

Remy's little helper 🥃
For Remy's props I'm trying to create a hazy, neon mood, to show how often he goes around dulling everything. Unfortunately pain exists in the Dream too, and these are just the ways Remy's learned how to deal with his.

Meet my oc Remy, artist of the Dream 🥃🎨

He cycles between sleepless weeks of creation, benders in the ID club, crippling comedowns from the drugs/alcohol he consumes and very brief moments of stillness that quickly become unbearable and lead to benders that lead to comedowns.

Hard at work or hardly working 🐈‍⬛🚲 Berry just wants to design trinkets in their shop, but alas, there's work that needs doing. Thankfully Erebus is good company ✌️

#whimsicalart #fantasyart #queercharacters

Nonbinary character with greenish pale skin and pale blue hair, wearing a beige baseball cap, a dark green coat, a faded purple T-shirt, blue joggers and green vans. The character is depicted getting onto a bike with yellow handlebars and a retro TV with eyes at the front, as well as several crates and useful items (watering can and shovel) stored at the back. On top of two crates is Erebus the green, spectral cat.

This week's Cheeky Tuesday sketch carries on showing Erebus interacting with the 5 Dreamers.
Shown: Berry, on their way to their repair/gadget shop, and Erebus making sure they're there on time.

#fantasyart #cat #whimsicalart

Sticker portraying a marble-skinned woman with golden kintsugi lines across her face and legs, wearing a red/pink robe with tassels at the bottom. Rays of light spread outwards from her abdomen and she is curled up to help with the period pain. Next to her is a spectral green cat, curled up and sleeping, with similar rays spreading outwards from his chest, as if sending love and comfort to the woman during her tough times. Behind them there is a medieval arched window with a blue and purple background revealed through it.

The artwork of the marble woman and green spectral cat on varied merch (T-shirt, art prints, cards, pins and notebooks).

Photo of me and my boyfriend's family cat, Mr. Snuggles. Mr. Snuggles is a moggy with a white face and dark lines across his forehead and body. In this photo I am lying in bed with a hot water bottle in my armpit and my head supported on two cushions. I am exhausted from the period pain and sweaty, but feeling the love from my furry friend.

Tender Loving Care, as comforting and cosy as I could make it 🐈💜
Inspired by this photo of me (exhausted, sweaty and in pain) and Mr. Snuggles, who will always be my muse 🎨✨

Added to my store too; thank you for your support!

#fantasyart #cat #womenstruggles

Marble-skinned woman with long, grey and blue hair and golden kintsugi lines across her face and legs; she lays curled in a foetal position to handle her period pain. Despite the pain she is smiling. She is wearing a red and purple robe with tassels at the bottom. Next to her is a green spectral cat, Erebus, curled in a similar position, eyes closed. Beneath him there is a pink/red scroll that says Tender Loving Care, and beneath both the characters is a purple star.

This week's Cheeky Tuesday sticker sketch portrays the resilience of women dealing with gynecological suffering.
Though pain can isolate, such burdens are easier when shared. And Erebus is a very compassionate boy. 🐈‍⬛♥️

#cat #wholesome #digitalsketch

Artwork based on this quote by Ken Nerburn: “Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance, and none can say while some fields will blossom and others lay brown beneath the August sun. Care for those around you. Look past your differences. Their dreams are no less than yours, their choices in life no more easily made. And give. Give in any way you can, of whatever you possess. To give is to love. To withhold is to wither. Care less for your harvest than how is shared, and your life will have meaning and your heart will have peace.” The artwork depicts a marble woman with kintsugi lines across her body and face, flexing her arms, from which two children hang, one based on an owl and the other on a beetle. There are colourful flowers all around them and a sun shines warmly at the top.

Final piece for Women's Day 💪
Celebrating women's daily strengths, their kindness, their gentleness and empathy for those around them.

#surreal #womensday #art

Coloured sketch of three characters under a bright sun, surrounded by different flowers. At the bottom you can see the words: We are all children of chance. The centre character is Phea, a muscular woman made from marble with Kintsugi lines going across her face, arms and abdomen. She has pale hair, golden eyes and lips and is wearing a rust-coloured tank and brown trousers with sun and star accessories. To the left of the image there is a colourful owl character hanging from one of Phea's biceps. The character wears a purple jumper with a butterfly and star pattern, as well as green shorts and red and white trainers. To the right of the image there is a beetle child (hanging from Phea's right bicep) with short dark hair and horns. His skin is green and he has two sets of wings and is wearing jean dungarees, a dark t-shirt with bug patterns, green polka dot socks and beige sneakers with an eye and mouth at the front.

Cooking up something close to my heart for Women's Day this year. Rendering phase next 🖊️

A copper man wearing dark clothes taking a smoke break next to a beer keg and two crates filled with empty beer bottles. On top of his head there is a spectral green cat.

#relatable

Good Monday, fellow knighters

Two sketches of characters taking a break from work. First sketch is of Cam the copper man crouching in the alley behind the Thorn pub and taking a smoke break. He's dressed in his work clothes, dark t-shirt and trousers, and has Erebus the green spectral cat sat on top of his head. Next to him he has a used beer barrel and crates of empty beer bottles. The second sketch is of Harry the pub owner holding a pint of beer and giving us a thumbs up.

Next week's batch of Cheeky Tuesday sketches are inspired by well-deserved break time, be it a cig break during a tiring shift or a cheeky pint after the shift ends.
February has been a busy month for everyone so now that it's almost over I hope you all find time to rest 💤

#sticker #sketch

Green-skinned, purple-haired woman clenching a fist and grimacing with fury. Her eyes are bloodshot and her teeth gnashing and there's purple and green flames behind her.

This week's Cheeky Tuesday Sticker is Bergamot choosing violence 🔥
Possibly because Remy has cancelled on their plans again...

#characterart #sticker

First sticker is a non-binary person with greenish skin and long blue braided hair, carrying a Longboard and having bugs around them. They're wearing a purple beanie and jumper and blue jeans, as well as knee and elbow protective gear and a fish Fanny pack. The second sticker is a man with a mullet and moustache kissing a hurt copper man with red hair. The text says: Take care of your friends. The final sticker is a woman with green skin and purple hair clenching her teeth and a fist as flames start behind her.

Whether you're loving your hobbies, your clumsy mates or, unfortunately, the wrong person, Valentine's Day should remind us all to love and especially love deeply. The world could certainly do with more of it these days.
So I hope whatever your love looked like yesterday that you got plenty of it ✌️❤️

A couple stood in front of a thorn heart. The man has yellow skin and pink hair and the woman has green skin and purple hair.

The same artwork on a variety of different products, from prints to cards, coasters and mousepads.

The same artwork but without the green background, now on products like stickers, hats, mugs and tote bags.

I've also uploaded this artwork on my Redbubble site (with and without the background): www.redbubble.com/people/Bianc...

Two characters stood in front of a chrome heart made of thorns. The female character is based on the Bergamot plant and has curled purple hair with an undercut and green skin. She is wearing golden thorn-inspired jewelry and a gray distressed vest with holes and tears at the collar and near the chest. She also has a bee ring and long nails and is holding a cigarette. Embracing the female character from behind is a taller male character with yellow skin and pinkish-red hair swept up and trailing upwards into a cloud. He has a sorrowful expression and is wearing a teal jumper with heart-shaped cutouts on the chest and shoulders. He also has earrings and a beaded necklace.

Somehow I managed to finish this in time for Valentine's✌️so: Happy Valentine's from this troublesome couple 💛💚
Remy and Bergamot were once deeply in love, but after Remy accidentally dreamt up Mori their relationship strained. Nowadays it's one argument after another.

Sticker that shows a nonbinary person sat cross-legged and playing with a water hoop game whilst also listening to casettes on a casette player. They're wearing a pink, purple and blue hoodie with the strings pulled fully so there's barely an opening at the front of their face. Behind them there's shelves with books, a casette player, a retro TV with a plant peeking behind it, a comic book and a strawberry milk carton. Beneath them there is green grass. The text reads: Don't mind me, having a digital detox.

The same sticker shown on different products on my redbubble site.

For this week's Cheeky Tuesday sticker I tried to channel all the things that gave me comfort growing up in a world with limited digital interaction. Can anyone relate?

#relatable #digitaldetox #sticker #retroart

Three sticker sketches Top left: a green-skinned person with a yellow hoodie with the strings pulled all the way so there's only a small opening where the face should be. They're sitting Cross legged and are playing with a water ring game and listening to cassettes on their cassette player. The text says: Just having a digital detox, don't mind me. Below it there's a sticker of an unripe fig grumpy face. To the right there's a sticker of a brown Husky character wearing a green, blue and purple hoodie and holding a plant pot with a mostly dead plant and one single green leaf. The husky is crying in a hopeful and joyful way. The text says: Keep Hope Alive.

As the youngest Dreamer, Berry is the perfect conduit for showing just how much we all appreciate the pearls of wisdom the older generations gift to us.

#sticker #funny #humanart #relatablecontent

A man whose skin is made of swirling colours similar to a paint drip. The colours are mostly reds, oranges and pinks, with flecks of greyish blue, yellow and green to show a hint of sickness from all the drinks. In his arms he has a fun vampire that feeds off his colourful blood (which she has in her left hand in a plastic cup, similar to the plastic cups you get at the end of the night in a pub/club). The vampire has cute, pale hair and is wearing a blue top and skirt and pink gloves and tights with holes in them. Behind the two there are pink, neon hearts.

Remy's romantic relationships are all complicated...
