A marker, ink, and paint pen drawing of a pink Merman with a red scaled tail, with flukes that look like peacock tail feather, but in pink and red. The Merman has his back to the viewer, head turned left to show one huge black eye with a red beauty spot at the corner of his eye. He is looking at his long, red-lacquered nails on his left hand. The background is a deep green-blue.

When you are the prettiest goddam MerMan in the ocean, dammit.

Omg this is so insanely cute !!! And congrats on the achievement !! :^))

Thanks so much !! 🫶

Tbh I only started posting here because of this challenge, but I've met some great people like you and that's what has been the most rewarding tbh !
And I've never had any discipline so am glad I could prove to myself that I am at least capable of it 😅

Thank you so much !! Your support means a lot :'^) 💜 and am definitely looking forward to a little rest haha

It's time for me to focus on figuring out what kind of art I want to make, both for myself and for the world. So now, a new journey of self discovery begins! Thank you very much to all the lovely people who supported me thus far, you guys are the best and are much appreciated 💜🦎 now, on to the next!

Well folks, this marks the end of my daily drawing journey. It's become far too cumbersome and has started negatively impacting my health, so I think 4 months of daily drawing is a good place to stop. WORRY NOT - I'll still keep making art, so stay tuned for more experimental and finished pieces!

A fineliner pen and brush pen drawing of a man with his back towards the viewer. He is holding a very large sword that has two tail fins on the end of the hilt and a hinge at the end of the very wide blade that makes it look like a shark or something cool like that. The man has a large scar on his left shoulder blade and his spine is curved slightly irregularly because of his injury

This is actually incredible and I think should be the gold standard for merfolk from now on

I don't think it's that, I think it's honestly just the nature of Bluesky. A lot of my followers are accounts that follow like, 15k+ people - no way they're getting thru everybody's posts to see a drawing I posted 🤷‍♀️ don't let numbers discourage you !!

Woodland of coniferous trees, with rocks and a rotting log lying in the grass below. There is a large dark tower shape at the top of the hill in front of a full moon, with clouds rolling in around it.

Something among the trees.

A marker, acrylic marker, and fineliner pen drawing of a man wearing a golden filigreed helmet and chainmail. He has his eyes closed, a large scar on one of his cheeks, and blood trickling out from one side of his mouth

Day 118 of #sketchaday - "safe"

Finally safe...at least for now

Aaaaa thanks so much !! 🫶🐉

Really ?? Oh wow, I would've never thought it was rushed, imo it looks really good !!

Ohhhh I see - hopefully it changes by then !! Weather is so unpredictable, a lot can happen in 3 days I think ! Wishing you clear skies for your big day !! :^))

A digital drawing of a feminine but otherworldly figure with her left and third eyes open and a hole at the throat chakra.

Im not usually one to make oc's, but she's probably the closest I have to one. She means a lot to me. Her left and third eyes are open, but her right eye is closed and her throat chakra/voice is missing. She is benevolent & occupies the spaces in between realities.

This is such a cool character design, and I love how you painted her !!

You're getting married today ?? Omg congratulations !!!! 🎉🎉
But damn that sucks so much about the cold and the rain... I hope you still have a beautiful day regardless ! :^)

That's been my exact experience as well 😅 though I made the account before I started doing my daily drawings so idk if it would've made an impact if I posted daily there like I do here... I just feel like it's easier to talk to people on here tho and make connections, seems much more casual 🤷‍♀️

Biggest painting so far this year, and a great excuse to paint tons of flowers! 🤭

This is so pretty omg !!! Love the shawl and the flowers in the background !

A fineliner and brush pen illustration on light green and purple striped paper of a dragon's head poking out of water looking straight ahead at the viewer

A colored pencil, fineliner, and acrylic marker drawing on light purple and green lined paper of a baby ridgeback dragon's head. The dragon is shades of black, blue, and light purple and has bright pink eyes. He was directly referenced from my den in flight rising

Day 116 of #sketchaday - "fierce"

My ridgeback hatchling from Flight Rising has a very fierce look to him 😳

For me traditional coloring is WAAAY easier - I can just slap on some color w/ a few paints or pencils and it looks pretty decent, but with digital it feels like no matter what I do it just looks "off" 😅 what about for you ? 👀

Aaaah I appreciate you including me so much, thank you !! 🫶🦎

The amount of detail you put into your work is astounding, it looks so insanely cool and intricate !! Am jealous cuz I'd never have the patience for that !!

Ayyy congrats on finishing this new feature, it looks great !! :^)

I relate to that very much! My biggest weakness would have to be coloring with digital art, which makes sense since I'm mostly a traditional artist 😅 A strength would probably be traditional inking :^)
