No no, it's her wife's favourite flowers, blue orchids. She painted them on her gravestone.

It would be cool to have extra layers but not this time

I don't do clothing studies but I may have to start.

Love suits and adore Rhea Seehorn in them so here's a quick one-brush study (brush: Velleia/Procreate) #sillyArtStudy #Procreate #RheaSeehorn #idkwhatimdoing
Stylised illustration of Rhea Seehorn wearing a light blue suit with rolled-up sleeves and a low-cut top, standing against a mustard yellow background. She holds a small dark clutch and smiles slightly. Behind her is a larger, faded sketch of her face, giving the image a layered, magazine-style look. Reference: Getty/ Phillip Faraone

👑 The Inspiration vs The Art 💜

Pauline in the Yellow Dress by Herbert James Gunn & Minthara Baenre with Cat 🌹

(not sure if there's a better word than 'inspiration' since I have only modified some elements, I do love Gunn's love for his subject 🥰)

ZOSIA 🌹 #pluribusart #karolinawydra #plur1bus #stursia
(she's technically upside down but nevermind) Vertical digital illustration of Zosia, played by Karolina Wydra in Pluribus, She wears a white jumper and reaches uoward with calm precision, fingers extended but unhurried. Behind her, the upper half of a glowing hourglass swirls with pale turquoise and green light. Large, soft flowers inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s belladonna-style paintings fill the background, abstract and intimate rather than realistic. The mood is suspended and controlled, suggesting a queer connection held in place by timing, restraint, and the confidence of someone who knows exactly what she’s doing.

Carol Sturka, do you want to save the world or get the girl?

#pluribus #fanart #carolsturka #yuribus #stursia #digitalart #queer #uselesslesbian
A digital illustration of Carol Sturka, played by Rhea Seehorn in Pluribus on Apple TV, standing knee-deep in a sea of vivid blue orchids for a good reason. She wears the iconic pluribussy mustard-yellow leather jacket over a pale blue top and dark trousers. Carol is shown in three-quarter profile, gazing upward with an expression that mixes determination, longing, and the very human frustration of trying to reach something that refuses to cooperate. One arm stretches high above her head, fingers open and straining, while the other arm trails behind her, as if balance is optional when hope is involved. She seems to be floating towards something unreachable, as it should be, for any same person on Earth. Behind her looms a large, glowing, cosmic hourglass filled with swirling turquoise and blue light, quietly suggesting that time is, once again, being difficult about things and she should probably hurry tf up. The background is a deep, starry night sky. The surrounding blue orchids, her late wife’s favourite flowers, crowd around her legs and waist, lush and abundant, grounding her in memory even as she reaches upward, seemingly or maybe away from it, from the grief that is holding her (or maybe she's the one gripping it. )The overall mood is tender and (lesbian) yearning, with a touch of stubborn hope and dry humour in the face of impossible timing. Very on brand. We love you, Carol.

love the YuriBus!

Here are my thoughts on the importance of ... whatever they are serving us 🌈

#pluribus #stursia #carolsturka #zosia #thankyouvincegilligan
Tall vertical digital illustration showing two women reaching toward each other across a glowing hourglass shape. At the bottom is Carol Sturka from Pluribus, played by Rhea Seehorn, wearing a yellow jacket and standing among blue orchids, her late wife’s favourite flowers. She reaches upward with a longing expression. At the top is Zosia, played by Karolina Wydra, shown upside down in a white jumper, reaching down toward Carol. Behind Zosia are pale flowers inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s belladonna-style paintings, not real belladonna. The image depicts a queer connection, with both women almost touching hands, separated by time and space.

I wish I could do the artist thing where I post something amazing and say 'took me 12 minutes and 15 seconds, eyes half closed, right hand behind my back, mom yelling in the background' but no, real cost is sanity.

So proud of Karolina Wydra playing Zosia in #pluribus #fanart #workinprogress
Illustration of Zosia, from Pluribus, a woman with dark hair, standing among pale belladonna flowers. She reaches one hand up toward a soft, glowing light in the sky. She wears a light blue sweatshirt and looks hopeful and emotional reaching out to someone on the other side. The background is dark blue and green, with a bright, teardrop-shaped glow above her, which maybe is half of a massive cosmic thingy to measure time with sand, making the scene feel gentle and hopeful but actually maybe not really because there is more to be excavated from the meaning of the flowers and what not.

Every now and then I accept that I’ll never draw anything ever again. Then another queer 'hag show' turns up and I am, regrettably, quite inspired.

#Pluribus #Fanart #CarolSturka #BurnoutOnHold
Image of a fanart with Work in progress written across it. It depicts a middle aged woman, Carol Sturka, reaching upward in desperation (yuriiiiearning for somebody, you'll see). She stands in a field of blue orchids, wearing a yellow jacket that contrasts with the dark blue night background. Her arm is fully extended upwards and in the far background you can guess there'sa half of a hourglass-shaped light with some magical sand. Pluribus rules.

Going back to what people are saying about using GenAI images as references is 'the only good way of using AI in art', I present you references for a persimmon branch that I just came across.

Do you think, maybe, there's something wrong with them? And maybe we should not make art based them?

Wintery Karlach says hi ❤️‍🔥
#KarlachCliffgate #bg3 #fanArt #ProcreateArt #Karlach #Tiefling #DnDArt
Karlach, taking a rare winter moment to be gentle, eyes closed while a tiny robin perches on her finger. They're bondifn. She’s bundled in a blue fur-trimmed cloak, snow falling like she’s accidentally wandered into a cozy holiday card instead of a battlefield for once.

My favourite drow girl for Frostfallen Foes: The Villains of Winter’s Night event by @baldursmouth.bsky.social

FYI: where I’m from, a birch rod is a perfectly normal Santa gift. Just saying.
#Minthara #fanart #winter #drow #procreateArt #DigitalArt
Procreate drawing by izzmizzstuff. Minthara stands in a snowy landscape with her back turned, wearing a flowing magenta cloak and holding a single birch rod with icy confidence. Her long white hair is braided with red ribbons and tiny star ornaments. Around her, goblins revel in holiday chaos: one sets Santa’s sleigh on fire, another drags off a pile of stolen gift bags, and a third gleefully rides Santa himself like he’s a sleigh. Chaos.

In the meantime, I am clowning for survival:
Minthara looks down with a calm, unreadable expression against a cobalt night sky. Her pale hair is tied up, her armour catching the starlight. Below her, an illithid tadpole spaceship streaks through the air like a tiny, fiery comet. Based on the Frieren meme by SpaceDev1

I will never tire of sitting on... my sofa and drawing Minthara Baenre #wip
Messy style portrait of Minthara in profile done in Procreate. She has pale hair in an ornate up-do with small golden star charms (WIP). Her skin is purple and she wears magenta gloves and a flowing cape/scarf (haven't decided yet) with gold trim. She holds a rózga, the traditional switch given by Mikołaj to naughty kids in Poland, tied with a bow and labelled for Minthara Baenre. The colours are rich and the textures have your scratchy, luminous cross-hatching, cause I'm experimenting.

It snowed in London for about 5 and a half minute the other day. I do miss the feeling of a white winter day. #karlach #workInProgress
A fantasy-style portrait of a tiefling-like woman with a shaved side and long curled dark hair. She gently holds a small orange robin on her finger while closing her eyes, smiling softly. Snowy textures and winter branches surround her, and she wears dark armour with warm orange glow beneath it. The image has a soft, frosty border and WORK IN PROGRESS written around the edges.

Can't draw birb to save my life but here goes a sneak peak of this year's winter drawing #workinprogress #digitalArt
A winter illustration of a woman holding a tiny robin on her long red nail, leaning in toward it with a small heart between them. She wears a fur-trimmed cloak, and snow falls behind her. Her warm skin tone, bold features, and fiery aesthetic subtly suggest she could be a certain hot-headed tiefling.

I can't imagine life, especially surviving the -ember months, without music and gigs.

So here's my 'thanks again' to @annacalvi.bsky.social

I have no words 💜✨💜 just sparkles
Digital portrait of an incredibly talented British-Italian musician Anna Calvi, based on a photo taken at the Earth gig, which was awesome and inspiring, and hence here we are. She’s shown playing guitar with her head tilted back, which happens a lot on stage, and eyes closed. Her curly blonde hair glows with light against a cosmic, deep purple and blue background filled with stars and golden halo motifs, which are a visual representation of the artist's emotional state during an Anna Calvi gig. She wears a dark shirt and light trousers, rendered with painterly texture and warm highlights (they were indeed white irl). Artwork created in Procreate by @izzmizzstuff

🖤Happy spooky month! 🖤
Go kiss a bat or something!

My chaotic attempt at Rose the Hat. (I suck at portraits so bad I’m sentencing myself to a week of pure face studies as penance) 🦇✨✌🏼
#RoseTheHat #DoctorSleep #Fanart #ProcreateArt #HorrorButCuteAF
Digital painting of Rose the Hat from Doctor Sleep. She stares forward with a piercing gaze, lit by neon blue and magenta. A red rose decorates her black top hat, and her long hair is tangled with a bicycle chain, colourful hairbands, and small children’s trinkets. The background drips with streaks of purple, red, and turquoise paint. Golden accents emphasise her trophies.

Forever obsessed with Rebecca Ferguson’s #RosetheHat.
For her chat, she just voluntarily decided to stick a bicycle chain in her hair. Like, wow, artistry? craftsmanship? witchcraft? I'm yet to paint that. I'm just partially in awe, partially traumatised.

#Fanart #evilWomenUnite
Digital painting of Rose the Hat from Doctor Sleep, shown from the chest up. She wears her signature black top hat with a dark red flower and stares straight ahead with glowing blue eyes. The background is a chaotic mix of crimson and turquoise brushstrokes, adding to the eerie, painterly atmosphere. The text IZZMIzz WORK IN PROGRESS appears faintly at the bottom.

Autumn comforts, go. 🍂🍁🍂

What's the best autumnal comfort film, show, book or game to enjoy during a dark, cold, stormy evening?

*Also, yes, my chaotic dark WIP is wipping*
Digital painting of Rose the Hat from Doctor Sleep. Only the right half of her face is visible. She wears a black hat with a deep red rose pinned to it and has long dark hair with a braid. Her piercing green eye and dark red lips contrast against the vivid background of turquoise, magenta, and red brushstrokes, creating a chaotic, painterly atmosphere.

Sharing details on my Minthy because I wish BlueSky didn't pixelate images this much but also, I really have nothing else to post atm.

After I year, I have finally finished this painting of Minthara in the Purple Dress.

(I will need a long hot bath now).

#Minthara #portrait #drow #noble #dndPortrait
A fantasy portrait of Minthara, a drow elf, inspired by the painting Pauline in the Yellow Dress. She sits poised in an ornate chair, her expression sharp and contemplative. Her lavender-gray skin contrasts with her platinum hair, styled in a loose bun. She wears a deep violet gown with gold trim and structured shoulders, richly draped around her. A small black cat with glowing yellow eyes rests against her arm. Behind her is a dark indigo floral screen. On the chair’s arm lies a bright yellow dress, included as an homage to Pauline in the Yellow Dress, its color standing out against the otherwise cool, moody palette.

Okay but why has no one told me Maggie Gyllenhaal reads The Bell Jar like she’s spreading soft butter on toasted sourdough in front of you and only for you? I had to pause just to process the texture of her voice. What a performance!

#SylviaPlath #Audiobook
Screenshot of the Audible app showing The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, narrated by Maggie Gyllenhaal. The cover art depicts a colourful city street with cars and people walking past tall red and orange buildings. The audiobook is 7 hours and 24 minutes long, rated 4.5 stars from 2.6k reviews. The screen shows it is currently paused with 6 hours and 34 minutes left in Chapter 2. Tags include “Contemporary Fiction,” “Emotionally Gripping,” “Heartfelt,” and “Mental Health Awareness.”

Has anyone given in and verified their account here?

I'm not tempted to do that but it's frustrating, I think I'd rather just quit socials all together and move into forest cottage if this is going to be this way.
