This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Acryllic on paper. Inspired by Sonia Purnell's A Woman of No Importance. I normally only paint based on fiction, but after reading about Virginia Hall, real World War II spy, I wanted to do her portrait.

I tried to do it in the style of this video. I don't know if they thinned out their paint or just have transparent paint, but I immediately covered over my sketch with paint too dark and gave up following along. I still like the way it came out.

Acryllic on paper. Inspired by Scott Smith's The Ruins. I tried doing this abstract botanical style but it didn't work out for me. I used so much paint on this stupid thing.

And didn't even like the book. I think it's been too highly praised online. If you go into it expecting a B movie of a book instead of a literary masterpiece, you'll have a better time.

Happy with how this came out! Drawing this on thick card with proper ink felt absolutely gorgeous.

I got a new colouring book.

This is from Mythogoria: Darkest Desires by Fabiana Attanasio. Pencil colouring by me.

I made this for a video of mine but I am a big fan of just making good art as my thumbnails instead of bothering with actual thumbnail techniques that people do.

I don't make videos in order to make money so most of the thumbnails I make end up like this.

Got approached by njb and asked if I wanted to do a painting for his email listing which is a free online newsletter about pinball and retro arcade gaming.

Well that sounded like fun, and here it is!

I'm plugging a link here to the actual site : https://nantucketebooks.com/ebooks/quarterup/

It was lots of fun !
