Wyrdwood Wand - Artblock
A ritual inspired by their favourite artist - whenever they feel stuck - Harper lights a cigarette (They cant stomach actually smoking it though).

An illustration of a young person in a shirt and waistcoat, shaggy hair and cracked glasses. They lean against a messy desk of crumpled paper and scribbles. In their right hand, a cigarette is lit - the smoke lazily meandering around the character.

this is still funny as fuck actually

Panel 1
I am looking at a drawing of a character with someone behind me
me: Wow! These characters are so cool omg why isn't there more stuff about these guys?

Panel 2
the person behind me response: Those are your characters. You're the one that has to draw them.

Panel 3
a moment of silence as I process that statement.

Panel 4
I am on the ground crying and pissing surrounded by crude drawings of my own character.

zmeess ☂️ commissions open @zmeess.bsky.social · Aug 24

another commission for @adomania.bsky.social, their wonderful faun Lazarus! thank you for the opportunity to draw this boy again ✨
#art

shoulders-up digital painting of a young-looking faun, watching the viewer from behind his hands. he has light skin that fades into a tawny gradient on his forehead, shoulder-length wavy auburn and white hair with the color split down the middle, and large ram's horns that curl out and then in towards his chin. the top side of the horns is brown, with filigree carvings in it, while the bottom side is dark blue like a starry sky. the horns are shattered in a few places, the shards held in place close to each other as if by magic. the faun's eyes have dark sclera, blue irises and bright gold pupils; so does the third eye in the middle of his forehead, embedded into the bone with a few dark cracks around it spreading down the faun's face. all three eyes are looking at the viewer with an intense expression from behind the gracefully held long-clawed fingers, the faun's lips in a slight smile.
the painting is done in a semi-realistic style, with the color scheme that is almost iridescent.
