📌
Hi, I'm Eleonor and I'm a freelance illustrator from Portugal! You can see my art in ttrpgs, card games, the one videogame, other assorted projects, and lately book covers :)
Everything I paint is 100% human-made, as are the occasional bad jokes ✌️

A digital illustration, by Eleonor Piteira, of Baba Jaga from the novella When Among Crows by Veronica Roth. A woman in darkness stares at the viewer with glowing eyes. Her hair is dark and long, and she is wearing a shawl with traditional Polish patterns, which are also featured on the background. She is holding dry thistles. There is a small golden circle behind her head. On the top of the illustration there is a silhouette of a city upside down.

Poster illustration by Eleonor Piteira, for the short film Embers by Gerald McMorrow, showing a black woman with long braided hair in flowy beige robes rising above a city on a desert. She is holding a burning book, with some of its pages flying in the wind.

Book cover illustration by Eleonor Piteira, of Evocation by S.T. Gibson, featuring a blond man in a dark suit upside down in the hanged man tarot pose, with a mysterious red hand grabbing at his chest. He is framed by a silver border.

An illustration of a person from the chin down. They have both their arms around black wolves, which are asleep and cuddled against the person. Two more wolves are asleep and piled on top. The person and the animals are all smeared and smattered with blood, indicating they had a great meal together.

A man curled over onto his elbows, his head in his hands, amidst green leaves. A glowing, luminous dagger dangles above his neck and spine. His hands are cupped and outstretched towards the sky. Luminous liquid slips through his fingers.

A small child holding a bunny rabbit stuffed animal standing in front of a line of darkened forest. Inside the forest are lots of glowing sets of eyes

An oil painting of a foggy, monochrome forest with a singular man with glowing eyes standing in front of it. Before him are multiple shadows of wolves, their eyes glowing in the darkness as well.

Fanart of Vraska, a Planeswalker from Magic the Gathering. She is a pallid woman with glowing golden eyes and head full of green and orange snakes for hair. She wears a dress of fungi and greenery. She lounges comfortably on a dilapidated stone throne, and holds the Thaumatic Compass in one hand.

Digital art of a ranger and a giant jackalope equipped with a saddle and bags. The ranger is wearing a white cowboy hat, a red serape, and dusty mauve cowboy boots. She is down on one knee, examining a broken feather as she looks off in the direction of her quarry. It is midday - the colours are vivid and warm, conveying the heat and aridness.

Art of a deathly pale woman with long white hair. She is dressed in black, with gold-trimmed light armour. She lunges forward, brandishing a long black knife and pointing a long metal claw. Black shadow magic erupts from her casting implements in the shape of wings.

Character art of a "Starlight Saint". A knight dressed in excessively decadent armor and cape in a neo-classical and baroque fashion. The armor is gold, studded with bright magenta gems and hot pink ribbons. Panels on the armor are deep purple and magenta, with gold constellations. The clothing that peeks through the armor at the arms and legs are white slashed silks over purple silks studded with constellations. In his right hand he flourishes a white cape lined with deep purple, embellished with pink gems and gold constellations, and edged with a line of gold tassels. In his left hand he flourishes a sword with an incredibly long and thin magenta blade, and a gilded hilt featuring an angel with swirling wings. He wears a leopard pelt bedecked in ribbons with gems set in its eyes. The face of his full mask helmet is that of a classical statue, with a triple crest of plumes. A gem-studded gold halo circles the top of the helmet.

Veto Zomer [Open to work] @vetozomer.bsky.social · 15h

Hello #PortfolioDay! (tarot version)

I'm Everton Zomer, also known as Veto. I'm a fantasy illustrator for TTRPGs/TCGs and currently the Art Director for an upcoming TTRPG based on Brazilian folklore.

I love a good storytelling, nature, and tarot cards 🃏.

A woman in dark leather armor with rivets and straps looms over her victim in a dimly lit stone hall. She grips a bloodied dagger in one hand and holds her opponent’s hair with the other, forcing their head down. Her face is streaked with blood, and she smiles with a cruel, triumphant expression. Behind her, cloaked figures stand in shadow, while the setting sun glows red through an archway, casting an ominous light. At the bottom, golden letters frame the title: “The Dagger.”

A wealthy man sits on a grand throne in a dark, decaying banquet hall, dressed in rich robes with a red cloak and fur collar. He gazes forward with a cold, disdainful expression, surrounded by a feast of rotting food and dusty gold coins. Cobwebs stretch across the platters of moldy meat, spoiled fruit, and untouched pies. The once-opulent room is now filled with shadows and neglect, emphasizing themes of greed, waste, and isolation.

A mystical figure with dark, cracked stone-like skin and glowing golden veins dances barefoot atop sunlit desert dunes. They wear white flowing pants and a red sash, their elegant form wrapped in a swirling veil of sand that billows like a cloak. The scarf they hold aloft is etched with celestial symbols, glowing softly in the sunlight. In the hazy background, ancient sandstone buildings emerge from the dust as the sun rises, casting a radiant glow across the scene. The mood is serene and powerful, evoking timelessness and elemental grace.

A tarot card titled "The Warden" featuring a determined female adventurer crouching atop a hill, illuminated by a large full moon behind her. She wears a wide-brimmed hat, a red cape, and armor, with an array of daggers and tools strapped to her belt. In her hands, she holds two gleaming short swords, ready for action. The background is a dramatic night sky with scattered clouds, framing her silhouette against the moonlight. The scene conveys vigilance, readiness, and protection, emphasized by the golden frame of the card.
