HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you 🦌🌙 [ #ArtShare ]

Altar prayer card for the goddess Diana. A rectangular card has a black border with parts of the Orphic hymn for Diana surrounding it as a border in white text. In the bottom right are twin arrows over a crescent moon representing her and Apollo. In the bottom left and top right are white outlined 8 point stars. Inside the border is a marble shockwave black and grey pattern with white outlining that forms an arch at the top with lining to look like columns on both sides. In the middle is a stag skull with painted antlers of a diamond and star pattern. Behind the skull are smaller 8 point stars and cloud ripples. Above the skull is a scraggly branch of queen Anne’s lace with small dots above. In the top corners are two constellations for Sirius as her hunting dogs and Roman numerals for 13 and 8 for the date of the Nemoralia festival.

Playing with some handmade lowpoly assets. Experimenting with the kuwahara node in the compositor. I'm really enjoying this workflow.

Old comm work done for floralsilk_ ❤️

A woman dressed in a red coat with white fur trim readies a ball of light to hurl at enemies that are out of frame. The background is snowy and barren, with a few lamps hanging from the snow laden trees. There is also a large, primitive altar with an antlered beast's skull on the top in the background.
