✨Hi I’m Carlette! I’ve been cosplaying for a long time and while I don’t do it as often anymore, these are 3 of my most recent and one of my older faves! I do a lot of crafting with textiles, stitching, machine embroidery and sewing! Just here to vibe with other people who love whimsical things! ✨

A lot of this with a healthy bonus of personal grief as a treat. The whipped cream on the shit cake

Depression has been bad and continues to be bad but small rituals have been reviving me. Drinking tea deliberately, eating sweet crackers with homemade jelly, doing tarot, lighting a candle, watching the ducks at work. Small acts to just sustain me through whatever this all is

I just want to feel like myself again. It feels so long, months since I’ve had any real clarity or emotional stability. I’ve been swimming to keep my head above water not knowing when I’ll get to shore. I’m trying to do things that remind me of the person I was, a person I liked, who I used to be.

I haven’t had to take zofran in awhile but I have been so so so nauseous recently that I just had to take some today. I feel like I have just been so incredibly anxious all the time these past couple months ugh. It really sucks

Hello again #PortfolioDay !
I'm Anya. I am a freelance illustrator with a love for patterns and historical themes. I am always open for work and would love to find some new illustration projects!

The artwork shows a ceremony on a patio. There's a round pool in the center of the image and a round arch in the background. Sisters of the convent are placed in different locations performing different parts of the ritual. Half of them wear a peacock mask and half of them wear sun-like headpieces. There's a woman in the center on the horse. She wears a blue dress decorated with mosaic-like patterns. The horse is covered with blue patterns and stands still above the water. Two twins are sitting on the floor surrounded by large lilies. Behind them one sister plays a harp and another one is holding two bowls with mysterious light. There's a big mosaic tree in the background with other sisters dancing around it. There are two other sisters on top of the wall waving scarves. The artwork is mostly blue and light green

The image shows a room with tall windows and stairs leading to a bathroom below. There's a woman with red hair reaching towards a dollhouse. The woman is an original character of the commissioner. On the right side from the window there's a wall with decorated arch around it and some paintings hanging on the wall. On the first level there's a bathtub with a man laying in it. The bathtub is partially covered by a divider. The artwork is mostly pink and mint with lots of patterns.

The artwork shows musicians sitting in shallow water in a purple room. First musician plays wooden drums, second one plays erhu, third one plays a flute, fourth one plays a gong. All background musicians wear either pots or plates on their heads. The woman in the center has black hair and plays an instrument inspired by Korean instrument called gayageum. There are three purple goldfish floating above the ground. The wall in the background is decorated with arches with stained glass and there's a big flower pot with purple cornflowers. The room also has some arches with silk fabric hanging on them. The artwork is purple with some green details.

the artwork shows a room with a circle-shaped window and two people standing in the center. The window is decorated with flowers and has a curtain hanging over it. The room has two floors and stairs between them. The bottom part has a pool with the reflection of the room and two separated stairs facing each other. The room is decorated with patterns and tiles. The artwork is mostly lilac and turquoise.

(Carlette’s For Closers) @carlettecore.bsky.social · 18d

I don’t have a problem with Mary Sanderson or Hocus Pocus at all but it just feels weird to not have realized. I have to stop doing this ahhhhh

(Carlette’s For Closers) @carlettecore.bsky.social · 18d

Me: im gonna make a cute costume for my fall based DnD character for fall ren faire! It’ll be orange and purple! And I’ll use recycled textiles! Perfect!
Me half way into sewing with a terrible realization: this straight up looks like one of the Sanderson sisters 😩🙃

A chance encounter

illustration inspired by the Scandinavian fairytale, "Bride of the Lindworm". A prince in the form of a lindworm perches on a moss-covered rock and peers curiously at a shepherdess from across a dark pond. The woman reaches toward him. The scene is set in a dark forest.

Been playing 999, I like June and this silly pose she makes

June from 999: Nine hours Nine Persons Nine Doors. She has her hands up in a sort of shocked or flustered type of pose

"Sometimes there came a sensation as if a hand was drawn softly along my cheek and neck. Sometimes it was as if warm lips kissed me, and longer and longer and more lovingly as they reached my throat, but there the caress fixed itself"

In honor of Edgar Allan Poe's 176th deathday, here are a few of my recent pieces inspired by Poe's works 🫀

Illustration by Abigail Larson depicting a scene from Edgar Allan Poe's poem "Annabel Lee". Two lovers embrace at the edge of the sea, water splashes around them and the surrounding rocks. A full moon shines over them, and storm clouds loom.

illustration by Abigail Larson depicting a scene from Poe's "The Pit and the Pendulum" showing a man restrained as a pendulum blade swings close to him. Rats have swarmed around him, chewing the ropes that hold him down. This illustration is featured in "Sticker Jigsaw: The Edgar Allan Poe Collection" for Macmillan Books.

Illustration by Abigail Larson for Macmillan's "Edgar Allan Poe Sticker Jigsaw" book. The illustration is a scene from Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven". The narrator is at the center of the image looking up at at raven perched above an open doorway. Behind the narrator is a tall window with red curtains, and the ghost of Lenore lurks nearby. A black cat is watching the scene from the lower right corner.

I really wanted to make a new outfit for PARF but if it comes down to it I really could wear Falin :0

I’ve been having way too many nightmares recently and it’s especially not good because I tend to have very vivid and realistic dreams. So waking up with visceral memories is just not great 😩 the only thing that helps is that most of my dreams are lucid but they’ve been so horrible recently
