Hi, I’m Juni!
Introductions aren’t my forte, so I’ll let my work speak for itself. Here’s a snapshot of my favorite piece for each year since the beginning of my digital art journey 💖

An image containing a collage of vibrant character illustrations by Juniper Whitney, one for each year between 2010 and 2024

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · 1d

I am still so incredibly proud of this #Nyx print I did in 2024, I learned a lot from this one! One of my favorite characters in #Hades, hands down! 🌒✨ #Supergiant #Fanart

Print of the character Nyx from Supergiant Game's HADES. As Night Incarnate, she holds a shining planet in her hand and her long black hair swirls into the bright pinks and purples of the galaxy surrounding her. Stars orbit her crown and the Darkness crystals in her accessories gleam. Close ups of the digital painting show the detail and brushwork.

#Commission for Max's #OCs Jenkins and Gwendolyn. They are siblings with a special gift of magic sight designed for his #TTRPG campaign!

Thank you for your continued patronage <3

Bust portrait of a man with tan skin and wavy dark brown hair that falls to his shoulders. He wears regal, princely garments with teals, whites, and golds. He has green eyes with gold pupils that are four-pointed stars which extend beyond his iris.

She's here! The Crystal Butterfly herself, Citrine! 🦋 💎

Neo Seattle's favorite popstar and social media sensation, Citrine, is known for her hot tracks and hot takes. As one of the few non-combative scouts, she uses her power of Crystogenesis to create incredible performances 🎶 💃

A lofi-dreamy computer with a popup saying Starbright Agency New Demo Update!

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · 14d

These #OC portraits of #SIGILANTES characters are still some of my favorite pieces. Bright colors and neon lighting are always a fun time, and I wanted to practice utilizing them to hint at their personalities.

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · 15d

Less is more IMO as well! I like when text is punchy and to the point--Its why I'm not picking up a book and playing a game instead!

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · 15d

He can be your angel, he can be your devil 😇😈

Sketches of my #SIGILANTES #OC Japheth (and his alter ego, Jack)

Winning the lottery is a typical Tuesday for this two-timing little shit, as he's always in the right place at the right time with his supernatural luck. 🎲🃏💸

Two bust sketches of OP's original character. He has two-toned hair, which appears more white when parted to one side and more chocolate when parted on the other, showing the duality of his two-face nature. In his good-boy portrait, he smokes a cigarette and wears bright blue talisman earrings and a black collar with orange trim. In his bad-boy portrait, he has a scheming smirk, wears bright blue sunglasses and an orange shirt with black trim. The character has heterochromia, with one eye black with a blue iris, and the other blue with a black iris.

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · 15d

I love his MAGNETIC personality ✨

Hey, that's us in the Fall in Love Festival!!! 🤩💞

If you haven't already, now is a great time to play our FREE Demo and Wishlist the game on Steam! We'd love to know what you think! 💖✨💫

Oh my god, is that Starbright Agency, the super cool magical girl queer romantic visual novel where you have to fake date other scouts to make it in the cut through hero industry of Neo Seattle?

I heard you get to play as Wishbright, a cute spunky magical girl who just wants to become number one and help as many people in her city.

What are the routes? Glad you asked. You can romance Stormlight, a magnetic up-and-comer (he's literally magnetic, but he's also very charming.) The Prince of petals, a theater kid with fabulous hair. Orion, everyone's favorite secret jerk of a cowboy. Eclipse, she's a villain -- but is she really, you know what I'm saying. Oh and then there is Ollie, your agent with just the cuuuuuuuuuutest glasses.

Did you also know that every character has a SECRET Identity as well?? That's right so if you think that sprite is cute, wait until you see their civilian clothes. They could look completely different or be someone else!! (But they are still hot, believe you me.)

We have a bunch of new features coming too in the next demo. When is the next demo coming out? Glad you asked...stay tuned until next week and maybe you shall be rewarded.

Anyway, don't sleep on our game, it's quite good. Yes, I am biased, but I do speak the truth.

x.com/trevorzine?s... This was the Trevor Belmont project… There are some great artists that were a part of it if you want to check out their work, but the product itself is not available anymore.

I believe the term is short for “magazine” but it’s usually used as a term for an indie anthology composed of works from multiple artists/writers and organized/curated by a mod.They can also be published by individual artists as well! For example, I have two digital zines of just my work

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · Sep 10

Thank you so much!! That one was such a struggle, it was a lot of trial and error and if it weren’t for the fact it was part of a zine (with deadlines) I probably would have given up 😅

JUNI @jwhitnee.bsky.social · Sep 10

Truly works of art in motion! The love and passion that went into them is palpable, I am excited for the next installment!!
