The Empress
#octopolis #tarot #octopus 🐙🐡
The Empress reclines within her throne of fan coral and a corallimorph cushion. To one side she grasps a staghorn coral staff, and on the other a sand dollar shield. Within her web rest many developing eggs. Around her is wrapped a domesticated moray eel. All along her mantle crawl commensal crustaceans and molluscs. Her pattern is complex and enigmatic, evoking radial hydrozoans or flowers. Digital illustration by SS Julian for Octopolis.

Bonus #ArtAdventCalendar post! Been doing what I call doodles a lot recently. I find them meditative and soothing in these troubled times. They don't always come out looking like anything in particular but that can be part of the fun.
Digital drawing that has a lot of abstract black shapes in the middle that vaguely resemble some kind of angry bug with open wings and horns against a background of red shapes that might be loosely interpreted as some kind of flower bloom in closeup.

painting of two feminine figures, Fley (a green skinned tiefling with long dark hair, wearing a tight black dress) and Darania (a pale half-elf, blonde hair pulled up in a crown braid, wearing a white robe with red spider lily embroidery). Darania stands behind Fley, clutching the other's face in her hands, red polished nails pressing in her skin, and looks at the viewer with a predatory smirk. Fley stares ahead with wide eyes.

I felt nervous starting the church, since it's a huge colorfield in the image. I think I need to fill in some more areas to see if it jives. What do you think?

Une série de tableaux à l'acrylique représentant les paysages Lozériens 🌳

(2021)

#Art #NoAI #Acrylics
Acrylique sur toile au format carré représentant un paysage de Lozère. On voit une large plaine couleur olive aux nuances de vert et jaune. Le ciel est bleu azur, et de grands nuages blancs et lilas viennent déposer leur ombre sur la plaine. Au second plan, on aperçoit un muret en pierre grise, longé par des poteaux de bois en mauvais état. Acrylique sur toile au format carré représentant un paysage de Lozère. Une maisonnette en pierre est représentée sur la droite, avec une porte, une fenêtre et une cheminée. Le toit est en ardoise et la maison semble vieille, presque abandonnée. Elle est en bordure de route, et est entourée de grands champs composés d'herbe, de genêts et d'arbres. Le ciel est bleu mais de grands nuages teintés de blanc et de gris s'étendent sur celui-ci. Acrylique sur toile au format carré représentant un paysage de Lozère. C'est un grand champ de genêts parsemé de grands rochers de granit moussus typiques de la Lozère. Le ciel est gris, très sombre sur la droite. On dirait qu'un orage approche. En fond, on aperçoit le paysage s'étendant et dévoilant des champs de diverses couleurs, des arbres sombres et des montagnes au loin. Acrylique sur toile au format carré représentant un paysage de Lozère. On voit un grand lac bordé d'arbres et de genêts. C'est le soir, le ciel est bleuté et teinté de rose et se reflète parfaitement sur le lac qui semble être comme un miroir. Au premier plan, on aperçoit des genêts scorpion.

Sharing my weird art for #ArtAdventCalendar.

Little sculpture with 3d printed parts and clay-sculpted bits. All 3d modeling, printing, sculpting, carving, painting, etc. was done by me. Most of it was an experiment, but I think it tuned out pretty well!

#DarkArt
Side view of a skull of a deer-like creature with prominent fangs on the upper jaw, a split lower-with a a pair of fangs, and antennae-like structures protruding from the mouth. The skull is tan-colored, with parts coated in a light blue-ish substance. It also has red eyeballs and red, feathery antennae coming from the top of it's head. There are red lines carved into the lower jaw. Watermark Reads: Blue Appaloosa

A black and white shot of a dried Japanese maple leaf, still clinging to the tree. Its pointed lobes are posed in waves and curls, making something of a ghostly figure.

I've posted this before - but goddamn is it not one of the sickest feelings of satisfaction when you're on solo parenting duties for bedtime and you execute a no fuss, successful put the kids down.

It's like capturing a legendary Pokémon with a crap poke ball feeling.
