Commission I’m currently working on, for someone who’s very kind to trust the process and hear me vent about art. I’m trying to slide into a more dynamic territory with my portraits, and although it’s a big challenge for me after painting static characters for so long, I like stepping out of my comfort zone sometimes.

What would you like to see me paint more? Characters, objects or environmental art?

 

[Kaerri]

Which category do kitties fall under?

Honestly I'd like to see you paint more of whatever you have fun painting. I always enjoy what you post here

Art hasn't really been at the top of my mind lately. I did not expect for uni to take such a toll on my creativity, and from my experience, the best way to get out of a rut is through studies. I loved Netflix's The Queen's Gambit and could relate with Beth in so many ways. This still was really fun to recreate and I'm planning to do more in the future.

Thank you! They’re wonderful aren’t they? This is one of my fave shots from the series.

What books inspire you to write/paint? For me, currently, it's Six of Crows. Looking for recommendations for fantasy novels!

Oh, and have this WIP!

 

[Kaerri]

Freckles! And is someone about to get hit with a snowball?

Lovely art as usual!

If you enjoyed Six of Crows I'd recommend The Lives of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch. Very similar vibe, but imo more fun - people are more devious and unscrupulous and the heists are sneakier.

I'd also recommend The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. It's excellent YA fantasy series, also with a corvid themed title. XD

Ooooh those sound interesting, thank you!!

The Lies of Locke Lamora is one of my favorite books of all time! Highly recommend.

Thank you, I’ll definitely order that one!

 

[elusivethought]

Also, if you’re looking for good YA, I will also recommend Skyward by Brandon Sanderson. A book I have already re-read multiple times. It’s sci-fi ish, with no heists, but lots of great combat.
