Omw back to spooky school 📚🧡 #art #cats

A warm drawing of a black cat wearing a witch hat and dressed in a coat and patchwork scarf. They sit atop an old-fashioned suitcase and hold a book and wand, with a stack of books beside them and a broom leaning against the case. Sunflowers and a signpost with a wagon symbol on it frame the background as they watch for their ride back to school.

Shiny Shark 🦈✨ For some people like me, sharks have become a symbol of resilience and hope, like the glow of a candle. I couldn't think of anything very creative, but I also didn't want to overwhelm myself; the previous ideas were too complex. I would love a small candle holder like this!

An illustration of a small ceramic candle holder in the shape of a sleepy whale shark yawning, with star-shaped holes through which the candlelight emanates. On top of its head, there is a small sleeping remora.

Any of my mutuals wanna give me their WoL/OC for me to sketch like this (for free) and use as another example on my website? 👀 Can be human, humanoid/furry, or creature; I only need one or two! I'll also try to draw more FFVII character portraits like this! Any requests?

Pre-Nibelheim Sephiroth sketch ❤️ Tilted heads are my nemesis so I spent a lot of time on this, but I'm happy with the result 😌 #Farisart #FFVIIR #FF7Rebirth #Sephiroth

Grayscale sketch of Sephiroth smiling warmly at the viewer, his head tilted, before the horrible events happen at Nibelheim.

Thinking of making this a new, more affordable commission option 👀 I wanna draw more grayscale portraits! $30-$40 depending on details/style as shown below, with my WoL being the $30 option and the Sephiroth portrait being $40 😌 #Farisart #commsopen #comm #oc #FFXIV #FFVII #portraits

Two character portraits drawn in a semi-sketchy grayscale style. The FFXIV miqo'te Warrior of Light portrait on the left is priced at $30, while the more realistic, detailed Sephiroth portrait on the right is priced at $40.

Two twitch emote designs, one of a cutesy Secretary (with a little :3 face) from the game 1000xRESIST, and the other a text emote that says [SMILE SOUND]

Here's all of my current space cat stickers! 🌌 I have one left of the sun cat and likely won't restock it once it's sold, as it's been a slow-seller. But, I want to add to the solar system sticker sheet series at some point, and make other sticker sheets! 👀✨ Shop link: artbymelfaris.etsy.com

Black galaxy cat vinyl stickers, with a sparkly stardust finish! They're arranged in a circle around a central sticker, just like a.... galaxy....

Caladrus doodle!! I'm still in the early game of Fields of Mistria but I love his design and I can't wait to know more about him. You can tell I'm more comfortable drawing creatures than I am humans, especially for pen doodles 😄 #stickynotedoodle #art #dragon #fieldsofmistria

I dunno what to draw so I'm finally back to this WoL sketch and noodling around with it to make it better :3 Zenos will get added back in at some point... I'm forcing myself to stick with grayscale so I don't get carried away! #FarisArt #ffxiv #art #sketch

Lineart sketch of my WoL from FFXIV, a miqo'te named Faris (yes I named myself after her). She has a slightly wry grin on her lips as she looks to the side with a raised eyebrow, her hair styled in dreads.
