the museum poster I designed for the current exhibit in #Berelyse! I gave special consideration to the interactions between these historical figures, the lighthouse, and the way they're all illuminated 🕯️ thank you to the Institute for the opportunity! -Aimi
A young man in a long red jacket with gray wool lining the hood and the sleeves grins mischievously at the viewer. He has brown skin and fluffy brown hair. His eyes are orange-red, and one is closed in a wink. He sits on a sigil that looks like a crossbow. A wave of smoke swirls over his head.
"What kind of Undying Ember sheds the Keeper of the Forge's blessing?"

An illustration of a man cast mostly in silhouette. His face is almost all obscured in a black shadow save for his eyes, which look directly at the viewer. The lower half of his body burns like embers in a fireplace. He holds a massive hammer and sits in the center of the frame. He wears a large cloak and heavy boots. In the background is a sigil that looks like a stylized flame.
Introducing His Eternal Warmth, He Who Sparked Flame Into Being, The Keeper of the Forge, Commander of All the World, The God-King of All Eternity.

A young girl with pale blonde hair and blue eyes sits in front of the silhouette of a lighthouse. Her hands are clasped together as she stares directly at the camera, mouth open like she's singing. She wears a mended yellow dress and has a blue clip in her ponytail. She's backlit from the lighthouse.
"The lighthouse makes our differences even starker. When I’m up here, I’m a shadow blocking the light. She’s absorbed into its brightness."

Introducing Blossom, Jasmine's younger sister. Often heard singing strange, unfamiliar songs she claims to have not written.
#berelyse
A young woman with a long black ponytail with blue lowlights holds a small silver object in her hand, examining it. She wears a long blue cloak, a white shirt, and dark blue pants tucked into brown boots. Her face is harsh and blank. Behind her is what looks like a beam of light. Waves of light blue cover the bottom of the image.
“And when I first saw you, Jasmine? Oh, you shone. Blinding and bright. You were unlike anyone I had ever seen before.”
-Nico
Introducing Jasmine, the last lighthouse keeper of Seabreeze Shoal, and the focal point of the exhibition.
#berelyse
A somewhat dark, backlit scene with a color palette reminiscent of dawn. Jasmine, hunched on the floor in a pool of her sister's blood, holds Blossom to her as she tries to process what she's seeing. The blood moves and drips through the grooves in the floorboards, filling in the scorch mark of the sigil of His Eternal Warmth.

A man, his face a dark silhouette and the rest of his body glowing like hot metal, sits as if on a throne. In his hand is a giant hammer, resting by his feet. He wears a long cape and heavy boots. Behind him is a glowing sigil in the shape of a fire. The entire piece is dark and red, with sharp, geometric shapes.

A young woman poses anxious, her hands crossed in front of her defensively. Her expression is worried. She is in long purple robes with black armored shoulderplates. A silver and yellow sword hangs off her waist from a purple scabbard. Her hair and eyes are a mix of yellow and lavender.
"I do not have the strength to fight for myself. But if allowing myself to be someone else’s pawn means protecting you, then a pawn I shall be."
-Spica, in an unsent letter addressed to Jasmine
Introducing Spica. Jasmine's childhood friend, and His Eternal Warmth's newest soldier.

A 2d illustration of 'The Last Lighthouse Keeper', which the text on the piece reflects. At the foreground is a young woman with a fierce expression holding a lantern. She wears a white shirt, black pants, and a blue cape with fishing line lining the inside. She has a black ponytail with blue lowlights. To her left is a nervous-looking young woman with ombre blonde and lavender hair.. She wears black shoulderplates and gold armor over purple robes. A silver and yellow sword sits inside a scabbard on her waist. On her hand and hanging from her center stole is a sigil; the same one that glows in the center of the piece. Going clockwise, the characters are as follows: a young girl with a short blonde ponytail seems to sing, her eyes closed in happiness. She wears a worn yellow dress with light blue accents. Next to her are two young boys holding hands: one in tattered brown clothing smiles and points off in the distance. His companion, in green and a brownish-red cape, looks on with a soft smile. At the center behind the glowing sigil is a woman who winks at the viewer. The same sigil from the center of the piece glows on her cheek. Her hair spills out like smoke from under a green hood. She wears a short green dress. An old man with dark skin and a gray beard looks away, his face obscured. He wears a gray robe and a large brown hat. A young woman looks warily at the camera. She has light blue hair and wears a white cloak embroidered with pink berries over a pink dress. A young man with fluffy brown hair in a thick red jacket smiles down at the young woman with the black hair in the foreground. His hands press against her back, seemingly pushing her along. His eyes, like the two women with the sigils, have an orange glow in them. In the background there is a silhouetted lighthouse, which emits blue light across the piece. Two seagulls fly above. A small cabin sits at the other end. The silhouette of a man, glowing like embers, stands at the back of the piece.
