Small work in progress of a nebula painting I’m working on. Yay space!
Just got an Intuos5 tablet as a graduation gift, so I doodled up a dolphin carrying a glowing crystal through some hydrothermal vents to celebrate!
This is a pastel and ink art nouveau-style tribute to the book “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” by Richard Bach. It’s a wonderful little fable about a seagull who seeks to better himself by perfecting the art of flying. It’s a quick read, I recommend it!
Lyrics from the song “Zum Laichen und Sterben ziehen die Lachse den Fluss hinauf” by Thees Uhlmann. Painted with watercolors.
Hati from Norse mythology devouring the moon. Painted with coffee and watercolors; prints and original available.
My very first experiment with typography! These are lyrics from one of my favorite songs by Thees Uhlmann, “Sommer in der Stadt.” If you speak German (or even if you don’t!) I recommend his music, it’s great.
Daily sketch! The boyfriend calls me “mink” sometimes because I’m a sneaky fencer, so here we have a couple minks. Forgive the nonsensical colors, I was lazy.
A is for Angha! The Angha is an ancient Persian mythological creature said to be part peacock, part dog (in this case, a Saluki). Inspired by the Alphabeastiary project.
Clockwise from top left: Simpler Times, Wisdom, Cold, Quetzalcoatl, Bearer of Bad Weather, Sinking Soon, Field Sketch: Common Gryphon, Thieves, and Daydream — see clerical-error.deviantart.com for larger images. I’ll also trade for one of your own prints/ACEOs/sketches/whatever art you feel like instead of the $2.50, just ask!
If 19th-century naturalist had stumbled upon a gryphon in the wild, maybe this is what his/her field sketch would’ve looked like — that was my goal, anyway. Charcoal, pastel, and ink.
I was having a terrible weekend until a very talented artist on dA messaged me saying I was one of her favorite artists and she’d like to do an ACEO trade with me. I almost died of niceness overload.;____; YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!:D
Coyote steals fire, Raven steals the stars. Based on Native American mythology.
Some fanart for one of my very favorite games, Okami! I tried to make it look like it was made of cut paper. Not sure if it worked or not, but it was definitely fun. I’ll have prints of this for sale at Kumoricon this year.
