"I sought and longed for something I could not quite name. But in you, I found it." ~10hr study of a shot from @realgdt.bsky.social's Frankenstein, what a beautiful film 🍁🖤

Digital painting study of Elizabeth and The Creature/ Frankenstein's Monster from Guillermo Del Toro's "Frankenstein" (2025). They are looking at each other with soft expressions, and their faces are mostly in shadow with bright orange rim lighting. Elizabeth is holding the Creature's hand up to the side of her face and neck gently, and her other hand is resting on the Creature's shackled wrist and holding an autumn leaf that looks like its glowing orange in the light.

Finally can share the piece I painted for Pas De Deux: A Princess Tutu Zine! 🐣💖🩰

Digital illustration of Duck / Ahiru from the anime Princess Tutu which shows a little yellow duckling in a pink and white tutu and a tiny crown and necklace dancing with her eyes closed and wings outstretched. Behind and above her is the shimmery pink translucent figure of a faceless ballerina, wearing the same costume and striking a similar pose as the duckling. They are both against a deep blueish black background, surrounded by hazy blue mist and delicate pink sparkles.
