Started as a little study and became another one of the 'Secret Society of Unpractical Headpieces in Space' series (that still does not exist) 🪐
Illustration by Eleonor Piteira showing a black woman with an elaborate golden headpiece. Her hair is curly and long, she's wearing a dress, and gold and blue make up on her eyes. She is framed by a circle and behind her there is a space view with a star and small planets.

I don't particularly know why I drew him, but the full one is now available for patrons! patreon.com/alakotila
Part of a character art portraying a satyr with long brown hair. He wears armor that appears to be falling off. The ropes that wind around his body are snug but also untied at about the waist, and he has flowers tucked into his belt. He is depicted with sun and floral motifs, with leaves tattooed over his top surgery scars.

Mia was out there getting isekai'd into magnificent fantasy realms Way before it was Cool.... #Oldartredraw #ocsky (fun fact: Mia/Mianime is the Direct successor to Helena and DD and ported over a good handful of the characters/concepts!)
A young girl with big green eyes and bright blue hair up in to long pigtails topped in little round buns, Mia, is posing in a cutesy playful way; leaning over a bit with her tongue out, and making a peace sign over her head. She's wearing a white collared shirt under a black vest and a little red ribbon tied in a bow around her neck, with a knee-length red skirt and white knee-high socks with a res stripe on top.
Around her are six tiny fairy creatures, all looking at her with varying expressions and enthusiasm:
A disgruntled little bee man with his cloak pulled close over his knees, a curious, but concerned, Koi fish with flowing turquoise hair and poofy green dress, 
a small blue cat in a black bandana throwing up a paw in excitment,
a white wolf in a red onesie smiling and leaning forward expectantly,
a very shy and sad looking bunny rabbit in a big dark tutu covered in moons and stars,
and a weasel dressed in a pink dress with a huge pink beret and giant pink bubble braids clapping enthusiastically.The same image as described but drawn 6 years ago (2020), this on is line-less and the colors are a lot more saturated and opaque. Some of the whites wash out into the background, Mia's buns are logistically difficult to understand round donuts on top of her braid and the anatomy is a little funky around the arms and legs. The fairies poses are dynamic but not as pushed (with the exception of the  koi fish who, honestly, still looks better in this one than she does in the new one)the same image but from even earlier (2016) Mia is a lot more stylized with huge bug eyes that take up most of the face and no iris, there are fewer details in things like the hair, the folds of the clothes, depth of the colours, much simpler poses for some of the fairy chracters and the line work is messier. Notably the wolf and the rabbit are missing from this iteration.The earliest version of the image, the original, drawn in 2008 on a wacom bamboo tablet that was Not installed properly and lacked pressure sensitivity. The style is much more clearly going for Anime/Manga and all the poses are simpler and non-dynamic, Mia's outfit is also more stylized with a cropped vest, larger bow-tie, shorter skirt, and belted red legwarmers instead of knee-high socks(it was 2008, that was the Thing to Wear). 
This original version also has a rose embellishment in the top left hand corner and the title "Mianime!" in big blue bubble letters across the bottom with a pink "1" to imply this is the cover of the first volume of a series.

East Center Street Lot, Rutland. Direct Watercolor, 20"x16". #directwatercolor #watercolor #watercolour #aquarelle #aquarel #aquarela
Watercolor painting of side and back businesses along East Center Street in downtown Rutland, Vermont. A parking lot is separated from the sidewalk by a rust painted wooden fence in the center of the scene. To the left is a tall, brick building with cement window trim - its arched and slender windows reflecting back the bright blue sky. To the right is a white stucco building, its side - facing the parking lot in the center - draped in cool purple shadow as its windows reflect back light bouncing from the building on the left. Recessed in the lot is the back of another brick building, each story revealing a single arched window. Electrical wires run horizontally along the top of the scene.

Disciplined Duelist - for Magic: The Gathering's Streets of New Capenna AD: Sarah Wassell The first painting I completed for Magic and still one of my favourites.
A man strides across a dimly lit hallway, brandishing magical gauntlets. He rolls up a sleeve in anticipation of a fight to come. The shapes of the composition are angular and art-deco-inspired.

A somewhat maximalist, very collage-heavy experiment piece this month, using a lot of my photography and some old Slovenian art
Digital collage and painting on vertical canvas
Theme: Fantasy / Dark fantasy / Experimental
Character: My OC Lubi (he/him, transmasc) and a skeleton
#Artsky #QueerArt #TransArt #DarkFantasy #SwordAndSorcery

This piece is almost entirely composed of photographs I took. It features a central long corridor that disappears into the darkness, every side of it a different texture. The left and right walls are photos of old walls, the ceiling is wood, and the floor is an enlarged photo of a gingerbread cookie I bought in a Polish shop in Ljubljana once, overlaid with an assortment of Turkish delight from Lidl. I've had these two photos for like 3 years and I'm so happy to finally put them to use lmao

In the front, slightly left stands a knight, who was traced with a lasso tool over a relief sculpture from Celje. He's wearing a dark armour with very colourful accents on skirt and flag, and his head is a fire. On his knee guards, one can spot a unicorn and a stag beetle in trans flag colours.

In the upper right corner, a dragon's head is sticking out of a wall, the fire it breathes joining in with the knight's fire hair. For this head I used a photo from an ornament on one of the 'healing springs' near my hometown. It's coloured in somewhat garish colours that reoccur across the picture, magenta, aqua, green and blue, and notably three of its fangs depict the white, pink and blue or the trans flag.

Lastly, underneath the head stands a skeleton, cut from the famous Danse Macabre fresco from the Holy Trinity Church in Hrastovlje. The skeleton is orange with green shadows, and splashes of magenta on some parts of its body.

Crystalline light filters through the boughs of a fiery maple tree in Kyoto, Japan. The slowly moving waters of the Arashiayama river reflect the light from above. The brush strokes fit together like a mosaic of stained glass, breathing color and motion into the scene.

ERUPTING EARTH / EXPLODING SKY 🌈 a gouache piece from residency, 2023
an illustration painted in gouache, playing with vibrant colours. tall towers of clouds across the lower half, a dark blue sky giving way to light from the top to the bottom. bisecting the image is a warped and liquid rainbow. in the centre is a strange shooting star with multiple tails, rocketing over a flat black square. the bust of one figure is in the upper left, looking down and away, and he's coloured in a wash of blue. in the lower right is another figure reaching up toward him or the star, longing and young, their dark black-purple hair sweeping and swirling around them.
these characters are from the comic SUPERPOSE.
