Goddess of The Grape Vine 🍇✨

#characterart #myart #illustration
An illustration of a woman within a vintage gold frame who has short hair and sparkles/stars on her cheeks and shoulders. Her back is facing towards us and she is slightly turning around. Next to her is a grape vine with grapes falling and leaves around her, with a warm light above. She’s assumed to be a Goddess of Grape Vines

I'm kinda hoping to work on more commissions this year. 😌 I am of course grateful for the things I got to work on so far last year but I like to push myself to do more and see what is possible for me. 🔮💜✨️
I got into more bookish art in 2025 which was pretty cool and different for me.

I have noticed this new way new artists interact with other artists just for engagement and...it's weird.
It kinda reminds me of how girls used to think acting "dumb" was cute in order to recieve pity and protection.
If you are an adult artist, you are grown.

The story behind the new chair and why it's pink is because my sister was like "Well, I know you are in your more colorful era so...I got you a pink one...they didn't have a nice purple...and you like strawberry stuff so"...🍓💗

So far, it's nice.

I gave up doing portfolioday on LinkedIn…I actually gave up on LinkedIn quite a bit because honestly it hasn’t helped me at all and I do feel like posting there is a waste of my time and energy.
Also for some reason unknown men try to message women on there and that’s NOT IT. 🫠

Random, but this sketch from 2024 still does it for me 😘
An old sketch in clip studio paint I did back in 2024 of a woman wearing a pearl necklace with eyes closed downward with her mouth slightly open. The lines are really thin and textured
