Hello! ✨🦭✨
I'm Arja, 30s, illustrator and graphic designer, queer and neurodivergent, a thing for historical fantasy and silly characters.
While I work on something personal, I'm in Dragon Age hell.

Celeste dos Cravos (2025), acrylic gouache (+ tiny bit of watercolour) on hot pressed paper (A3)

The traditional version of the illustration I painted digitally last year, now as I had first envisioned it :)

Illustration by Eleonor Piteira featuring a woman on a balcony, holding a bouquet of red carnations, giving one of them to a soldier passing below, placing it on the muzzle of his gun while he looks up at her. All around, other soldiers walk beside him, some wearing red carnations on the muzzles of their guns too, others waiting for their turn to get one. On the background, Portuguese tiles frame the woman, while the balcony's railing slowly transforms into a streetlamp typical of Lisbon (with a caravel and 2 ravens, the symbols of the city).

Golden Embers - watercolour and digital, 2015 (I think?)

It's been a long time since I posted this vengeful queen. Back when my style was a little more abstract and weird.

A queen with a RBF stands with her hands on a sword's hilt. Her skirt is an abstract view into a kingdom on fire.

Morning studies of today: fawns.

With just construction lines they could be fawns or whippet dogs/Italian greyhounds.

They contain multitudes.

Esatto, quando vai in giro a Kirkwall di notte viene utile sapere come fare i punti... O dove esattamente mirare per prendere i reni con una freccia :P💜

Con il moroso che ha non può che approvare. E' un normale giovedì sera a cena a parlare di ferite gravi e suture e come tenere gli aghi sterili nelle fogne :P

I've enjoyed maybe 20% of DA:I as a whole (and I'm being generous), but I still love this character design ngl

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Lady with Elfroot 🌿

A digital oil painting study after a book I read. Feat. my #DragonAgeInquisition MC, Aisling.

Portrait of an elven lady turned to the left, but facing the viewer. She's holding a branch of ivy in her right hand, and is dressed in teal and ivory, with a golden eye on her chest. The background is abstract, on the tones of purple.

DANDELION 🌼 #DragonAge #DorianPavus #dafanart #zazrichart

illustration done for the Dragon Age fanzine Ardent Blossom. It shows Dorian Pavus lounging on the stairs of an undefined ruin, wearing leisure wear. Dandelions are surrounding him, having grown through the cracks of stone. Dorian's expression is serene and he is holding an assortment of blowballs in front of his face. In his other hand he's holding a stem with only a seed head remaining, the pappus already blown away.

This morning, the United Nations Commission of Inquiry concluded that the Israeli government is committing genocide — affirming what Palestinians and experts have been saying for nearly two years.

Lea, author of the book on painting I'm studying: "Ok, do a very rough sketch of your subject, then paint the shadows. Don't be too precise, just concentrate on the shapes."
