i decided to start a series where i paint songs that i found via tiktok, cuz the way the platform is set up means that i’ve found SO many cool new artists from there. this is Blackbird by Seefa. i turned the lyrics about blurred lines to streaks of paint. #art #musicart #artistsofbsky #digitalart
a digital painting, roughly the same aspect ratio an average phone screen. it features a black woman, Seefa, facing the viewer with a look of concentration on her face. Her hands are held up in front of her. Her hands, as well as her hair, appear to be melting away in streaks of colourful paint.

#sinners #artistsofbsky
a digital painting using messy and saturated paint strokes, featuring Sammy, or Preacher Boy, from Sinners. his head is thrown back as he sings, and he’s playing the guitar. lyrics are written to fit the shape of the guitar; on the body it says “they say the truth hurts / so I lied to you” and the neck says “see i’m full of the blues / holy water too” there are three images painted into the background. on the bottom left is the scene where Smoke and Sammy are in the water, with Smoke’s arm around Sammy’s shoulders, and Sammy’s arm around Smoke’s waist. the top left has the image of the burning rafters. a tall twisting flame of takes up the right half of the background.

(does literally anyone follow those tags?) (like actually if you do let’s be friends or something)
a screenshot of Procreate, a digital art app. There are two square images, both with a matching circle/square grid overlaid; on the left is a partially finished painted portrait of a man wearing a derby hat. A layered scarf is pulled up to his nose, covering half his face. the painting becomes clearly unblended and unfinished with the end of his scarf. His eyes are rimmed with red and yellow. The image on the right is the reference image, which is a photograph of the same man. His arms are crossed under a heavy cloak.

downloaded nomad sculpt, followed a tutorial and my favourite part was when i paused and was like. i’m gonna give her a booty before finishing the video.

then i unpaused and on the next step the dude was like “y’all don’t have to do this but i’m gonna add a butt”

If you see this, post your blue art 💙🩵💙
A digital painting a scenic view of a stretch of road, with the ocean behind it and a mountain view behind that. The paint strokes are deliberately horizontal, smearing the colour across the image. The sky is blue with a smattering of clouds. Two people are running across the stretch of road: on the left, the character Bart Curlish is mid-run, holding a machete in her hand aggressively. On the right, the character Ken Adams, also mid-run, is turning his head back to look at Bart. They, too, are painted with the horizontal paint strokes, leaving streaks where they both blend into the background.

a digital portra be it of a woman, facing to the right, chin in hand. one eye is vivible, eyeing the camera. she’s smirking. her glasses are shaped like hearts. the drawing is done in blue, yellow, and magenta, which, layered atop each other, make a darker, almost black colour. there is a circular effect overlayed on the image, as if you are viewing it on and old TV. a digital portra be it of a woman, facing to the right, chin in hand. one eye is vivible, eyeing the camera. she’s smirking. her glasses are shaped like hearts. the drawing is done in blue, yellow, and magenta, which, layered atop each other, make a darker, almost black colour.

A screenshot of Apple Music lyrics. The song is Cocaine by Xana, and the cover art features an intimate photo of two people, cropped to their torsos, and one bloody hand resting on the other’s stomach. The lyrics are: Now I hold you to standards that you cannot reach I made you bigger and better than ever before What can I say? I'm so good at making you someone that I could love forever and What can I do when l'm at the mercy of Midas hands The very ones that reach for you With your hair at your shoulders You wish I were older I wish you were half the world I made of you A screenshot of Apple Music lyrics, cropped so that some aren’t fully readable. The lyrics readable are: Now I hold you to cannot reach I made you bigge ever before What can I say? I'm so good at mi that I could love f What can I do wh the previous two lyric images overlaid over one another, edited so neither are very legible; the background is dark and covered in visual noise and glitches. The lyric “What can I say?” is at the centre, edited black to highlight it.
