An illustration of a long haired man with elf ears looking somberly at the viewer. He has tear tracks down his cheeks. he is standing in front of a series of eroded statues, each of which also has tears in its eyes and is overgrown with foliage. The sky is red and ominous behind them.

An illustration with a decorative white border. In the center, a large, dark gray skinned man with glowing eyes is lying on his back, and a much shorter man with pale skin and long hair is resting on his shoulder, nude and draped in a dark blue cloth. In the background, various versions of the shorter man are lying dead, with a ripple effect distorting them and the background.

A group portrait of five men (two at the top, one in the center, two at the bottom), with each of the outer four looking yearningly at the man in the center. The top-left man has dark skin, red eyes looking away from the viewer, and black coily hair which is tied back with a red ribbon. The top-right man has pale white skin and long, silver hair and yellow eyes, and is wearing a black bodysuit mask over his mouth and nose. The man in the center has medium tan skin and long, dark blue hair with silver streaks. His eyes are golden. The bottom-left man has light skin, short black hair with a silver gradient at its roots, a mustache, and is wearing a decorative red rose eyepatch over his visible eye. The bottom-right man has light skin, blonde hair cut into a choppy jellyfish cut with curls at the bottom, and pale blue eyes.

An illustration of a man with shoulder length wavy hair turned away from the viewer, looking over his shoulder with a smile. He is standing in a field of tall grass, touching a stalk of amaranth with one hand. The image is framed with a decorative gothic border.

Ethan, a dogboy, playfully looks back at the viewer, back towards them, holding out a peace sign. A large cloud in the distance towers over him.

Hi hi #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨

I'm Requinoesis, someone who loves the ocean! I'm dedicated to creating a new insight into the imagery of sharks under pastel colors! 🌊🦈✨

You can see more of my art stuff here, if you want: linktr.ee/requinoesis

Roberto, the great hammerhead shark, explores the ruins of an ancient museum destroyed by Typhon's storm. He holds a flashlight and carries a mysterious human spirit in his backpack, who accompanies him in silence.

The place, shrouded by the phenomenon called “cursed salt mist”, is covered in a permanent fog. Salt crystals sprout everywhere and a supernatural presence seem to lurk among the rubble.

The spirit that accompanies Roberto is liquid and translucent. Sometimes little tropical fish of extinct species float around him, as if attracted by his presence.

The museum's architecture is full of organic curves and ornate tiles. Decorated columns show a crab with a human face holding the moon between its pincers, an ancient symbol of a historical figure revered by the sharkfolk.

A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants.

A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea.

An allegory of the "Jaws" movie poster that caused damage and negative stereotypes to the image of sharks that persist to this day (I'm glad it's slowly changing, but it's still too slow to be considered forgivable). Now with a reversal of roles, with the human victim replaced by a simple wild shark and the terrible stereotyped shark replaced by a monstrous human skull seeming to want to devour the shark (this is the reality, we kill thousands of sharks every year, many of them killed for irrational reasons, who is the real cruel killer?)

A woman leans forward and shrieks wildly at the viewer, her teeth and tongue tainted with blood and drool. Her eyes burn blood red as strands of her long, billowing hair cross her face. Text reads:

YOU LOOK VULGAR TO ME.

A gentle reminder: If this goal is not met, we will be homeless.

I am an Indigenous person that's been through utter hell in the last two years. I am disabled and queer. Despite being marginalized, I'm the one having to carry the burden of finances. It has been extremely difficult.

Anything helps.

Happy Indigenous People’s Day, I’m a Borikén Taíno creative who is the only income and trying to keep a roof over mine and my partner’s heads.

The last almost two years have been extremely difficult, and many Indigenous people like me live below the poverty line.

weird painting to test out my new inking pen ☀️

watercolor painting- a woman kneels behind a bush, carrying an approximation of an antique musket/rifle (I did not look at reference for this one so the shape is a bit off lol sorry everybody!). She is wearing a wildly impractical but fun outfit- a high cut onepiece with baggy ankle boots, a helmet and a big swan hat/cape.

I'm not used to the hot+humidity combo and gotta say, didn't like it at all, I sweat a lot and my hair just poff right away, so I feel sticky, ugly and uncomfortable. I have no right to complain about the heat in Santiago anymore lol

I was expecting tokyo to be colder, since they were starting autumn - WRONG, it was the most humid plae EVER. I used to whine a lot about summers in Santiago, very hot and dry, never humid. It's getting hotter here (spring) and I'm about to whine then I remember the humidity and shut my mouth lol

they are! i'm surprised, other japanese brands usually have this opaque finish with a chalky film? that i personally don't like in watercolors, but these don't and are very saturated, i'm loving them 💖
