✨🎮Recomanació del dia: Death Howl #DeathHowl @theouterzone.bsky.social @11bitstudios.bsky.social M'ha agradat: • Píxel art increïble, amb una direcció artística i uns colors brutals. • Ambientació xamànica inquietant i captivadora. • Jugabilitat punyent, però justa i amb un bon equilibri.

howdy! i'm bern, queer artist and designer from finland. i create flora and fauna art with fun shapes and patterns. my main media is digital but i also enjoy making small acrylic paintings and other things 🌼 🍀 store! ursalutra.storenvy.com 🍀 commissions! berneri.carrd.co 🍀 portfolio! berneri.horse
Ornamental digital piece of a black deer on a decorative plate. The deer is in the middle and seems to be in mid jump. It has a big yellow eye and big antlers and it's on a red background with white details. Around the inner red circle there is a bigger circular plate with complex floral ornaments in layers around it. The colors are mainly very light cream, light blue, red and black. It's inspired by old dishes with folk art on them.Photo of a painting made with acrylic markers. There is a white horse in a black background and very thick yellow frames around the sides. The horse is trotting and has red mane, tail and simple red flowers inside of it, giving it a folk artish style. There are yellow and dark green/teal plants on the black background. In the yellow frames there are red flowers and the same greenish colored vines. Also two black and white eyes with red flowers as iris.Digital drawing of a brown ox that is standing and looking to the left. He is breathing so some clouds of air come from the nostrils. There are some pale yellow flowers in the background and the ox has plant shaped ornaments/decoration on the back. Also he is blushing because that's cute as heck.Oval painting of a pink cat that has blue socks. The cat is looking thick as hell and it is standing in the middle of the painting, on a bright yellow background. The fur has a couple white stripes and white tail tip too. There are also two small blue flowers on each side of the cat. The canvas has very big floral frames on a dark purple background. There are big pink flowers with stems going around.

Small painting made with acrylic markers of a light brown goat on a blue background. The goat has a long neck with a dark grey thick collar with a yellow goat bell that has a simple eye icon in it. There are also red thick lines around the bell showing that it is ringing. There is a big red circle behind the goats head and the background also has yellow flowers. Goats expression is neutral and it has a big red eye and small black horns.
