Twelve princesses 👑
At last, I have finished my drawing! Here it is: ink drawing featuring 12 princesses walking in side profile to the right. They are walking through an orchard that hangs with crystal pears and (were this in color) silver and gold branches. The princess at the front has a lantern. The princess at the back is looking startled over her shoulder.

"Sometimes there came a sensation as if a hand was drawn softly along my cheek and neck. Sometimes it was as if warm lips kissed me, and longer and longer and more lovingly as they reached my throat, but there the caress fixed itself"

5x7" ink on claybord, 2021
a scratchboard artwork on the lower portion of the image, we can see the tiled rooftops of medieval houses - in the bottom left corner, a little character wearing a black coat and a floppy little hat is sitting on top of a roof far in distance, a huge castle rises above the scene, four towers on the very top of the castle seem to be supporting a giant, gleaming obelisk behind the castle, in the sky, a giant winged creature comprised of round turrets and rotundas emerges from the clouds

Harrow 🦴
Harrowhark Nonagesimus, from The Locked Tomb series, in a praying pose. Her nose is bleeding over her joined hands, as she looks at the camera. There’s a halo of shiny bones around her head.

I still really like this one.
Illustration of a sleeping princess, mostly in black and white with pale pink accents. A girl in a white dress with embroidered roses lies on a check-patterned bed, her long hair cascading down her pillow and across the sheets. She is crowned, bedecked with jewelry account her neck and on her hands. A bed of roses can be seen behind the curtains of her baldachin, and there are ornate lanterns above her.

My #TampereKuplii artist alley haul has a theme...
Zine "The Gift of the Necromancer" by Luke Herr & Tuuli Hypén with an acrylic charm of Harrow from the Locked Tomb series holding a sword. Delicious in Dungeon stickers. The crew in frog suits, a few of Marcille's bird-shaped familiars, a disgusted Marcille, Senshi with a luscious beard, cute Izutsumi crouching, Laios and Izutsumi walking along. Laios is holding fork. More stickers. Qifrey from Witch Hat Atelier flying, holding a pen and a book. An angry-looking Thistle from Delicious in Dungeon. A sticker sheet of Izutsumi doing cat-like things like being startled by a cucumber or hissing.

If you see this, post a butterfly to celebrate 10 million users on Bluesky.
Ink drawing of a bride with a dress of butterfly wings and a veil of spiderweb. Butterflies are flying into her hair. She stares at you with white irises, one sharp-nailed hand raised.
