It's #PortfolioDay again!

I'm Carmine, a rabid lesbian and hobby artist best known for pinups and original character design, often incorporating midcentury-modern themes and macabre elements.

Some of my other character designs are in the comments!

#CarmineArt
☕/tips: ko-fi.com/carminedeville

OC, Carmen Romero
Digital artwork of a woman in lingerie and heels posed confidently in an antique upholstered armchair. In one black, clawed hand she loosely holds a cigarette holder and lit cigarette, which trails smoke across the top of the image, and her other hand is draped over the armrest. A Columbian rainbow boa curls up her arm and around her shoulders, and a second set of shadowy black arms pose eerily behind her. The image is lit with iconic film noir slats of light and shadow, and a large, theatrical black hat casts much of her face into darkness, except for one shining golden eye visible beneath the brim.

OC, Victoria Sweet
Digital painting of a deathly pale woman with long dark hair, multiple curling horns tipped in gold, and fangs backlit by a full moon against a starless night sky. She ecstatically holds a fresh human heart in one clawed hand as the fanged mouth in her palm bites into it, spilling blood down her arm. Golden light pulses at the center of the heart and sparkles through the blood rivulets. Another mouth lined with jagged teeth gapes open at the center of her external ribcage, and she holds her translucent, partially skeletal bat-like wings at a low, casual angle.

OC, Mori
Image of a red half-fiend woman with long red hair pulled into a ponytail sitting in a pinup pose on a burgundy skull chair. She wears a spiderweb corset in such a dark purple it's nearly black, garters, and iridescent feather collar, and holds up a finger encircled in swirling, crackling purple magic.

OCs, Lucita and Zoya
Digital artwork of two backlit women holding each other on a grey and gold art deco background. The Latina woman in the left, Lucita, wears a smart dark grey suit and Panama hat as she romantically dips Zoya, a peroxide blonde white woman in a pink gown, who tips her head back as Lucita leans in to kiss her throat. In her right hand, Lucita delicately holds the handle of her silver sword cane, which she's driven through Zoya's heart and out her back, spilling blood down the back of the pink dress.

Corollary: men are lonely because they just don't know how to interact even with men with anything except detached sarcasm or thinly veiled anger.

"Huh huh hey bro, aren't you hot in that jacket?"

No.

"You're gonna regret wearing all that black clothing, bro."

Don't care. Pay me or fuck off.

Kat Tenbarge @kattenbarge.bsky.social · 21h

Whenever I see men complain about the male loneliness crisis or unique emotional/psychological issues faced by men, it’s very clear that they just don’t see women as full people capable of experiencing the exact same emotions they do

#BRart #ttrpgart #ttrpg

ink drawing representing an adventurer character climbing down a rope that goes through a hole in the ceiling. The interior of the area is completely dark, save for a giant stylized statue that is lit by the light coming from the hole, behind the character.

Art depicting an old hag sitting behind a table, illuminated by candlelight. At the table there's also a skull, a couple of clay jars and a bowl that seems to be filled with eyes. She's throwing dice at the table, they emit a blue light that reflects on her.
Her limbs are woven with a type of blue glowing silk, the silk seems to stretch all the way out of the frame into darkness.
The background is decorated with ivy and flowers.

stylized artwork of a caveman. he's lurching forward with a bow strung on his back. he wears some simple hides on his torso and some kind of skirt made out of hay.

I'm told it's #PortfolioDay so here is my portfolio.

I am a photographer and visual artist, primarily shooting using natural or studio lighting. My primary inspirations are 18th- and 19th-century portraits.

Camera: Canon EOS RP
Lens: SP35mm, EF50mm, EF85mm
Lightroom, Photoshop.

A woman in a Victorian dress holding a fan standing against an old wrought iron fence. Green-grey color tone, dark ambience.

A woman in a flowing red dress with long blonde hair sitting on a rock in the middle of a still creek. High contrast colors, blue-green tone, calm vibe.

A pale vampire woman in black lace and velvet reclining in a chair. She is leaning on a cane and holding a glass of red wine. Mise en scene includes a blood stained chess board and a skull cup

A woman in a Renaissance outfit and headdress cradling a lute. She is looking directly into the camera. Dark ambience, warm tones, Renaissance-style painting look.

It cooks my brain every time a person my age or older casually drops AI images on the TL. Especially if they're in the arts or supposed to be aware of what it is. Like... Do you not understand the implications??

Fenway health in Boston has stopped providing gender affirming care to trans youth.

I was previously on the board of this organization and I've never been so disgusted with their leadership cowardly capitulating like this.

Alt text:
Statement from Fenway Health explaining that due to new federal requirements effective October 1, 2025, they can no longer provide medical gender-affirming care such as hormones and puberty blockers to patients under 19, but all other services for patients of all ages will continue unchanged.

Weird question, I know, but humor me: would you rather be prepared for all of... that and be proven wrong, or not be prepared for it and be caught unawares?

A portrait of a pale woman seated in a chair dressed in velvet and lace. There is a trickle of blood running down the side of her mouth. She is reclining upon a cane and holding a glass of red wine. The decor consists of fringing, with a covered side table decorated with a blood splattered chess board, a metal carafe, and a skull cup. The lighting is dark and moody. Gray background, red trim, desaturated colors.
