Thanks for the tag :) I'm both a digital and traditional artist, although I'm more into oil painting these days. In addition to fine art, I also enjoy painting fantasy and sci fi!

Another inktober entry. Yes, I'm doing those daily, but I don't post all of them. It's easier to stay committed when I know it's not a must to post them on social media. I'm also making oil brush set for Procreate that I plan to sell once it's ready. 🎨

#Procreate #DigitalArt #IpadProArt #Ornate

Digital painting with oil brush set that I made so far of a yellow priest, covered in a hooded cloak, with fancy shiny ornate pattern with light wine red internal fabric with the same pattern. Its face is black partially covered. 3 thin smokes in yellow color is steaming off from its cloak. Simple gradient background. At lower right corner writes "inktober #17 Ornate" with my "m" signature.

Resuming oil painting after a long break due to me overusing my shoulder. No peeking! I'm looking at you! 👀 The result will be revealed on Nov. 1.

Sketchtober day 17: Book.

So went with kind of a book of the dead or something!

This time made quick 3D base in Blender to paint over.

Check the timelapse in replies :)

Somewhere light years away from Earth, an alien called it the trunk of glass. 😆

Made with 3 colors as seen in this picture. It was a fun still life study exercise. #colorpencil #colorpencilart #colorpencilsketch #art

Off to a new home.
The oil painting 'Honor for the Dragon' has just landed in a private collection along side two of my other dragon works. The work was featured as cover art on this years 2025 DragonCon program book as I returned to the convention after 15 years as the Artist Guest.

#digitalart - revisited my old work and finished 2025 version a few days ago - done in #artstudiopro on #ipadpro 🎨🥰

MeKenzie Martin Art 🎨 @dm7.bsky.social · 22d

Happy birthday! Perfect timing. I just revisited a series of old work a few days ago - first one was on android tablet that was barely had enough power for art. Thankfully I've improved. ;) Sorry it's a bit disorganized, but I hope you get the idea.

Hallo. I'm Josh. It's also my birfday.

Gettin' old and stuff. I like fantasy art. Here's some of my stuff (With alt text).

Thank you for the artshare, and Happy Birthday again. :D

A faerie with red hair on an abstract green background that suggests leaves. She is wearing revealing brown clothing that has gold art nouveau inspired accents, and has a gold chain earring. There are "motes" of light floating around her.

A Leanan Sidhe (dark fae muse) floats in an ethereal space. She has elongated, pointed ears and an otherworldly gaze and pale eyes. Flowing hair and a billowing robe give her a spectral presence. She clutches a dark, heart-shaped object close to her chest, as if guarding it. In the background she is framed by a large circular frame with an art nouveau motif of a blooming magnolia alternating with skulls.

A beautiful young woman with dark hair, freckles, and blue eyes is looking at the viewer, standing in front of a broken mirror with an art nouveau styled frame. Her reflection in the mirror has more severe features and pale skin, it is looking over its shoulder and also looking at the viewer with a smile on its face.

An illustration of a redheaded, muscular woman in revealing adventurer’s clothing exploring a crypt with a small blue animal perched on her shoulder. She is carrying a torch that is casting light on small orange monsters that are eating the remains off of a skeleton silhouette in the foreground.

Thanks! I love it so far! As an artist it's good to look at nature from a new and fresh perspective. John Muir Laws is not only an artist, but also a naturalist and a scientist so this book is extra special for its interdisciplinary knowledge. A treat to cherish for sure!

MeKenzie Martin Art 🎨 @dm7.bsky.social · 28d

How beautiful! Love the deep blue!

MeKenzie Martin Art 🎨 @dm7.bsky.social · 28d

Ahhh that's so adorable!

A "scientific" study of Cauliflower inspired by a book I'm reading, The Laws Guide to Nature Drawing and Journaling by John Muir Laws. 🔬 That was challenging. 😅

Looks like ArtRage is dead. No updates in years, and a Redditor said the dev sold it pre-COVID, now owned by a law firm. 💔 Rebelle seems to be the new go-to for traditional-style digital painting. I’ll keep ArtRage till it breaks, but RIP.
