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. Cover illustration by Eleonor Piteira, of the book What Wakes the Bells by Elle Tesch, featuring a young white woman with light brown hair, with her back towards the viewer, face in profile, in front of a circular gothic-style window with stained glass. There are 5 figures in the stained glass design. Smoke hides the bottom half of the woman while skulls carved in the stone beneath the window peek through. 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.

Anna-Jane and the Endless Summer
Painting of a young girl wading through the water of a pond, we mostly focus on her reflection which shows her looking over her shoulder determinedly. She has an archery bow slung over her back and is holding an arrow. In the reflection we can see that cabins in a forest are a-blaze

🌊The Angler's Bride🌊

My heart is a sunken altar. There, I thrive. There, I keep a ledger of bones. The deep remembers what the surface forgets.
A sea siren sits above a pile of bones with schools of fish, bones, and a giant angler fish around her.

How we all create art and find meaning in it is as unique as a fingerprint.

In visual art, that fingerprint impression is called having "a style". It develops in 3 parts:
1) your influences
2) what you enjoy
3) your special brand of laziness

"How do I find my art style?"
I've been a creative pro for 10 years, this is the number 1 question I get.

They want creative work to be recognizably theirs in an instant-- like Miyazaki or Wes Anderson movies.

This is the formula for art style, it's much simpler than you think.

LEAP OF FAITH (2002)
Acrylic on Panel - 11” x 10”

The smallest of the Faded Star series. 1/2
A low angle, slightly tilted perspective looking up an immense chamber. The walls of segmented concrete are dilapidated and filthy. As light shines down into the cavernous space, a solitary figure leaps off his makeshift perch into open air with arms spread wide. Below, a flock of doves stirs with the commotion, fluttering up through the chamber.

Hey all, do I have any UK based concept artists following me (or who knows anyone) who would be up for a long term 22 month contract working on Dragonwilds at Jagex? Remote with a very occasional day in office in Cambridge. Development experience and fantasy genre work is a must. Mid level role.

I’m really excited to share that I won the Frank R. Paul Award for Best Magazine Cover Art! My painting Stasis, a self-portrait about invisible illness, was featured on the cover of Uncanny Magazine Issue 58 🖤

#art #painting #portrait #illustration
“Stasis” is a portrait painted by the artist Zara Alfonso, and is the first piece in her series about invisible illness. A portrait painting of a girl with skin so pale she’s almost translucent, her lips are tinged blue and she gazes upward through seemingly unseeing eyes. Pale moths and winged insects cover the expanse of her face and body, blending into her skin in places.

Woe, free audiobook be upon ye!

I just got author links for the audiobook of The King Must Die and I've decided to share. Y'all don't even need to do anything to get 'em. Links below, one download each. First come, first served. [1/2]
Woe, The King Must Die audiobook be upon ye! It's that one Eminem meme of him throwing something, and the something is my third book :)

cover of THE SHAPE OF MONSTERS, book 2 in the Moon Heresies Trilogy, by Tessa Gratton against a dark teal background with stars and threads of magic. Cover depicts a brown skinned young man in a sleeveless red-brown robe pulling apart threads of magic with his bare hands. His left eye is golden and possibly connected to the magical threads. Beneath him is a magical bronze city-scape, and in the gray-brown sky a single bright blue star falls.

A more modern #dnd commission this time, Felicity :D
Painterly bust portrait of a pale woman in her thirties, arms crossed and expression fierce as she looks to the viewer. She has blue-black hair cut in a shoulder-length bob. She wears a leather jacket over a tank top and has deep red lipstick. The scene is dark, lit by a cool overhead light with a fainter orange glow off in the background.
