they never tell you this but one of the most parts of the artistic process is having Evil Time™️ where you sleep for 12 hours then eat a bunch of hot pockets and play video games til 4am

A digital painting done in a double exposure style. The main image is a portrait of a woman with medium brown hair in loose, messy waves, mostly swept to her right and covering the right side of her face. She's wearing a dark shirt with decorative shoulders and a wide neck, one side falling off her shoulder. The double exposure is of a forest with mountains in the background.
An old piece I still love. I was really obsessed with painting double exposures for about a year.

Four of the characters from my novel, Camp Daze! Marauder, Conifer, Valora, and Cheyenne. Love this bunch of badass ladies (and girl) just trying to survive the end of the world.

A flat color digital illustration of a woman standing on the edge of a cliff, looking out at a mountainous landscape receding into the sunset. The woman has brown hair with the ends dyed in flame colors, and she has a compound bow held loosely in her left hand. Across from the cliff she's on is another cliff, a valley between them.
The main character from my novel, Camp Daze. She's known as Conifer, but that's just the name she uses as a camp counselor.
I am STUPIDLY in love with the background on this one.

Who will tell them that this is actually what religious persecution looks like and they are the Romans
General rule for fanfic etiquette can be compared to someone gifting you a cake. 🎂
Privately telling a friend “it was dry, not my favourite” — ok
Declaring you hated it where the person could reasonably stumble upon that comment? Rude! No more cake for you.
