Ymmärrettävästi köyhillä lapsiperheillä on vaikeaa, mutta kun Googlella on vähän vaikeampaa, niin allokoidaan verorahaa sitten heille.

Ja maksetaan tämä leikkaamalla lisää koulutuksesta ja järjestökentältä.

My current art professor said one criteria we are graded in is how ecological we are with supplies, save the planet and all. And the next sentence she says "use chatgpt to form your sentences if you don't know what to say". I'm sure my use of tape is less harming than GenAi.

Cat Skull
Charcoal on paper. After the initial drawing the shading was mostly made by smudging charcoal powder, and the highlights were done with kneaded eraser.

Illustration of a Lagoon nymph sitting into an atmospheric environment surrounded by creepy trees. Someone is looking for her in the background, probably travelers.,

Crown King sitting on his throne of screaming skulls. He's surrounded by tangled trees in a horror and dark fantasy themed environment ,,

Illustration I made for S.A. Harian's book Briardark. The scene is showing a young woman wearing a blue coat lost in an heavy atmospheric forest in which the trees tangles with each other and the roots are everywhere on the ground. The woman is sitting - knees down - on the grass, the look on her face seems scared and hurt while she tries to extract a glow arrow from her chest, dripping blood as she's looking at the viewer, terrified. Next to her, on the grass, there's a bloody knife almost hidden.

Fullbody commission of a character owned by client. She has a long, blue dress with elegant fringes on both sides and puffed shoulders. She has long, wavy brown hair and she's summoning a magic with both of her hands. The light blue of the magic frames her pose following a circle around her body, creating a light game in which a light purple creates a color variation.

Illustration for my book CHD, featuring a person haloed by the lens of an antique camera. The lens is filled with a bright red light, like a dark room. Around the lens and the man is a vague impression of a hood (no face inside) and multiple dark hands reaching out of the shadows.

Digital painting (commission) of a mushrooms forest with all kinds of different shrooms, all within a warm sunset-y color palette. In the center is a tro-odon (bird-y looking dinosaur) with red, orange, and yellow feathers.

Half body digital painting of Lucatiel from the game Dark Souls 2. She's a woman with light skin, brown hair in a long braid, armor, and a big hat. She's clutching the cursed half of her face and making a pained expression, like she has a headache. Screenshots from her wiki page are placed above her, saying "... Maybe we're all cursed... From the moment we're born..." and "My name is Lucatiel. I beg of you, remember my name. For I may not myself..."

Concept art of the Abyss, a setting from my book. Giant reef-like formations float in the endless dark-blue of starless space. Pale, petrified trees branch off in different directions. A serpentine dragon-like creature hides on the right, and a tiny character in a red coat is levitating above the central reef. Far away, barely visible because of the atmosphere, is the silhouette of a stronghold.

I went to perfume sniffing with a friend on Monday and my thumb still has some scent on despite constantly washing my hands and I scrubbed it 3 times afterwards 🙃 I'm slowly losing my mind. It must be under the depths of my nail

Happy #PortfolioDay!! 👋🐱🦊
We're Meerkat and (Maned) Wolf, and we make beaded sculptures big and small of our favorite fantasy characters and animals!

Our ko-fi shop is open and we'll be adding new sculptures soon... ko-fi.com/meerwolfrend...
For all other social links: meerwolfrenders.carrd.co

A sculpture of an eastern phoebe bird with a smaller dragonfly sculpture in front of it (it can be put in its mouth). Made mostly out of brown and white beads for the bird, all held together by wires. The bird's feet are epoxied to a natural wood stick.

A sculpture of SkekTek, the Scientist inspired by The Dark Crystal. Made mostly out of beige and grey beads with hints of many other colors, all held together by wires. Posed facing the viewer holding a staff made mostly out of black beads.

A small sculpture of a toy manchester terrier, inspired by my dog, Tanner. Made mostly out of black and orange beads, all held together by wires.

A sculpture of Oki (in wolf form) inspired by Okami. Made mostly out of purple and pinkish/reddish beads, all held together by wires. Posed in a battle-ready crouching position with his sword Kutone on his back (but you can only see the hilt from this angle).
