Hey, if you see my work and think "oh I sure would like to commission that guy." Well, you can't. You can give me money. However, this will not make me draw anymore or less than what I do. Love you and thank you

Happy #PortfolioDay

I'm just a Dan who is sharing what I draw with pens and paper on my personal art journey. Art is what I do to process my feelings about and escape from the world for a bit in the evenings and on weekends.

Pen drawing of a ghostly upper torso, neck, head and shoulders of a bald human emerging from a mass of organic shapes that suggest organs, musculature, veins and other structures. Facing left it is looking with solid white eyes and a third eye towards an area of alien writing and shapes in white on a black background next to what appears to the left half of a viewer facing grey style alien being in an embryonic pose in a container and hooked up to wires and is propped up by the same structure of the background

Pen drawing that is mostly black and white focused on a humanoid figure with many different organic growths coming out of their back that contain eyes, while the upper part of their face is covered by a solid plate that has the skin of the lower part of the face connected to it by rivets. The rest of their body is covered by strange techno-organic growths and in the background is another figure reclining and holding their hands above their head into the arched walls that frame the scene. The surrounding area makes an oval portal like shape that filled with a yellowish hue and a number of orange ringed elongated eye like shapes with white centers with black filaments.

Pen drawing with the main element being a serpentine figure with vaguely feminine human features and a spiral shell like structure on the head, leaning from the right with large black eyes and a body covered with various bony growths like armor down it's back, kneeling on an uneven stone floor. One arm with a couple of large claws is slightly pointed at another figure is visible just below a large obsidian stylized skull pendant. The other figure is standing, holding a flowing robe at the waist, but has a smooth stone face but is otherwise human. In the background, lounging on the ground or on a pillar amount he strange organic shapes while in the background are stone structures that appear to be a temple like complex with a large circular structure that looks to be plugged into the large stylized skulls below it.

Pen drawing of a stylized, thin, feminine figure with a face that is just a black void with three white orbs sitting cross-legged in tattered black gown floating under an arch surrounded by runes and vegetation. They are floating amoung ruins flanked by a winged figures with bodies made of starry sky with smaller beings with animal skull type heads in black robes in the foreground of the floating figure. The wings of the crouching figures are in front of organiseh-yellow portals in the blue and purple sky while a feline humanoid figure slinks in from the right in the foreground.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.

His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.

A massive loss 💔

Illustration of myself sitting at a table while on the phone with an insensitive Doctor asking "Have you tried eliminating stress from your life?" On the table is a can of cola zero, a paper listing dietary restrictions, a mug of coffee, and four bottles of medicine. To my sides are a cat trying to get my attention and a television featuring the news reporting another deadly ICE raid. Behind me is a calendar with most of the days X'd out, a list of bills, a list of things I need to do, and a list of commissions that I need to finish. Outside of the viewing area one of my kids is yelling "Dad!!!".

Hello #PortfolioDay ~

I am a french freelance artist who likes to draw characters !
I draw a lot of OC, DnD and TTRPG's stuff ~
I am searching to work on more project including that in the future !

My website : narney.carrd.co
Portfolio : cara.app/narney

$Page of a character, profile, long red hair flowing all around her, white porcelain skin and gold earring and hairpin. A panel is on the bottom right, focus on her golden eye, fractured. A text says "If eyes are the mirror to the soul... What do mine show ?"$

OCs, Ivemylla, half-elf is sitting before a long blond haired man, her half-brother : Liazar. He wears a long blue robe and a black shirt as there is a gold accent on the tip of it. He is bending over her, smiling, holding her face toward the mirror after she got ready before meeting her future family in law. One of his finger touches her lips, keeping a mark of her lipstick on it. The other hand is presenting her. Her long white hair are attached in a bun with long strand hanging under it. A lot of pearls are pinned in it, same on her transparent dress' part. She looks cold, off.
The window is behind them, showing a late day light.

OCs Lyuu (right) and Minuit (left)
Two characters are standing, facing each others. The man, human looking, is showing his back to the viewer, short brown hair, scar on the right side of his face, smiling. He wears a purple shirt, his hand is holding the face of the other character.
The woman (elf looking) is looking at the man, coming from above like she jumped off somewhere, wearing a green armor. She has long black hair, tied up as a high tail, going into smoke on the tips. She has a very tender look and smile, holding the face of the man with her hand, which is black.

OC Jude, taned, long wavy blond hair with 2 big braids on each side, jeweled with rings and coins in them. She looks confident, one arm up while bending some water.
