this is a variation on the "what I see when I close my eyes" pieces I've made (a few posted about 4 months ago), I altered the actual color to purple
Hi everyone! I'm new here and planning to settle in… I live in a terrifyingly cold country 😱 … but deep down I'm kinda an artist and storyteller.
I listen to music, I'm thinking of posting my drawings, and just seeing what's what around here 😁
Oh, and if I don't reply right away — sorry in advance, I don't speak English at all 😇 (using a translator, so bear with me!)
Brush Pen, Following the example of Picasso's work
It wasn't her wings or teeth that gave it away. But the reflection she did not have.
When I started this piece I was planning to paint a reflection. Silly me. Looks unsettling without it which I think fits the scene.

I used a lot of overlay brushes to get the 'glow' look. Not my best work. Made in early July.
Seems when I add texture my art looks better. Here I forgot to add texture.
I'm trying for a modern Gothic look. When I look for vampire reference material the outfits are almost all from the Victorian era. This is my attempt to modernize the style a bit. What do you think? What would a modern vampire wear?

Medium is oil paint on 30x40cm canvas.
I hope this is okay here. I didn't see a specific minipainting community with more than 1 member.
Started painting this after resin printing a heroforge mini I made and bought. Just paid for the model file and here we are.
Anyway, spent maybe 5-7 days painting it. I think it looks better in person than from my phone camera (seems to highlight every imperfection, but it actually looks decent compared to what I've seen my friends paint). I'm still new to painting minis, but I think I found a life long hobby i enjoy. Hope you like it <3
I decided to try making doodle cards in my style of doodling. My methods are similar but unique compared to PeterDraws. I don't intend to flag out copy what he is doing. Only use his art as inspiration to find my own art style. These cards were fun to make.
Made with a Bic ballpoint pen.
I might trace this on Procreate or Krita and make something better out of it. Might need to redo where the shading goes because I am not sure if the lighting is consistent. Proportions are off. But other than that it might turn into a successful piece that i might end up printing out.

If you're thinking it's only July you'd be wrong. How do I know? My wife at I went shopping this weekend and 3 of the 4 stores were Halloween decked out. Clearly that means it's October...
And I wanted you try to paint a vampire.

This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.
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).
NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content 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 or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.
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.
