New color pencil flower drawing ready - hydrangeas. A bit more of a challenge but I learnt a lot while making it (about watercolor blending and keeping your pencils sharp!) #polychromos on #Hahnemühle paper

New flower drawing, this one very sentimental. My late grandpa, who was the only family member to support my art, loved pansies. They come in all kinds of colors and you better believe we had all of them. These are called sizzle frizzle :D Polychromos and watercolor, on cold press Hahnemühle paper.

#portfolioday - a day late as is the procrastinator way Hi, I'm Dani! I make fantasy illustrations with a lot of colors and flowing fabric. I'm fascinated by mythology and nature and stories, and I've had the privilege of working on many such projects over the past 6 years as a freelancer

First personal piece after months of fighting chronic illness. I was inspired by an idea I had for a tragic story, in which a priestess is compelled by her duty even in undeath. Will print as custom token with my own back design (first time!) Obviously no AI, and glazed against scraping

This Lucien, Cree and Jester (owl!) piece still remains my favorite Critical Role piece I ever painted 🪶 #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanArt #LynArt

A painterly illustration of A scene from Critical Role, Campaign 2. It shows Jester in owl form flying above Cree and Lucien as she steals a threshold crest from them.

Finished another sketch on the back of an artist proof - Vannifar! Acrylics + fineliners. 🎨

A photo of a Magic card sized painting of Vannifar - she's an elven mage who's magicked herself into a part jellyfish. Here she is holding her staff and floating in front of a starry background.

Same painting, but tilted to show the effect paints - the gold trim on her costume is painted with gold, and all the jellyfishy parts are iridescent. I painted her facial tattoos with green interference paint, too, but they're so very tiny it's very hard to see them here.

Painting of a female warrior with horns and lizard tail launching a spear, next to her is a friendly crocodile creature with its mouth open. They are both half-submerged in water.

It's been a while since I did personal art, and I made a new character! 🦋 Meet Vera, the unconventional lawyer witch responsible for risk mitigation in the Coven. #art #witchoc #characterart

A drawing of a fantasy butterfly fey girl, she has pale blue skin, and is wearing a patchwork short dress that's yellow, cyan and red. She's also wearing mismatched socks and poofy sleeves with a little decorative poncho. She has a third eye and wears glasses, and there's a third glasses lens for the third eye. Her hair is done in long pigtail that are pinned back up into loops. She has antennae and butterfly wings, both of cyan/dark blue color.

Can you help me share this? I would like to announce my first own artbook - part of the Artbox Series by @spiridude.com caurette editions The cover features a reworked piece from 2018, one that we felt was perfect for this. And still… something about it didn’t feel like me anymore.

A dreamy, pastel-hued illustration of a long-haired woman tenderly holding a young child in her lap. They sit by a calm pink-hued body of water, surrounded by lush tropical plants and glowing flowers. Soft butterflies float through the air as the warm light of a full moon glows behind them, casting a magical and serene atmosphere.

💀Supreme Vessel Ludinus Da'leth, Lich Wizard & Paladin of Predathos💀 What if Ludinus became a Lich to extend his life & absorb the power to become vessel? In #What-ifHells I redesign Bells Hells as different classes. For more what-ifs,check the post ⬇️ #criticalrolefanart @matthewmercer.bsky.social

Redesign of Ludinus Da’leth from Critical Role as a Lich Wizard and Paladin.

His skin is pale grey, covered in purple veins, and very tight over his bones. His jaw is covered in golden mechanical parts, possibly replacing some of his bone structure, and similar implants are seen protruding from his back, where is spine would be. The left side of his upper body is completely made of blue crystals, with purple lights within them, some of which are also visible on his legs, and even form a high heel type shape under his foot. He is wearing a blue one-shoulder dress, that trails behind him. A sheer capelet hangs behind on the side of the shoulder piece. The dress in cinched at the waist by a black leather corset, with gold chain details. Ludinus is holding a gold staff with huge blue and purple crystals that match the ones on his body.
Ludinus is looking at the viewer, his eyes are fully black, with vivid purple pupils.

A pale vampire woman, standing in the steps in a great hall of a Gothic old house. The woman looks down at us with slight unpleasant smile and holds her hand as if welcoming us to come in.
