HOWDY AND HELLO #PortfolioDay I'm Kate, a freelance character artist who loves drawing fantasy, women, and especially fantasy women!!!!

A color illustration of a dragonkin/tiefling woman with deep blue skin, closed eyes, tall curved horns with a glowing crescent moon between them, and long wavy hair going from indigo at the top to pale gold at the ends. She is dressed in an indigo gown with lots of gold trim and accessories and sheer blue accent cloth. She is holding a large golden greatsword with blue roses and purple thorns around the guard. The background is an art nouveau-style circular graphic of gold celestial motifs on a black to maroon gradient.

A color illustration of a dragonkin/tiefling woman with teal skin, darker turquoise hair in a braid, closed eyes, and a long tail. She is dressed in layers of red, gold, green, and turquoise, and she is holding a wooden staff with a golden lantern hanging from the top. The background is an art nouveau-style panel of stylized grass, lotuses, and clouds on a sunset gradient.

A color illustration of a gorgon woman with light and darker green skin/scales, long dark green cobra hair separated by narrow horns, and a long tapered tail. She is dressed in a dark green bustier with gold trim and lots of accessories, and she is holding two crossed swords behind her head. The background is an art nouveau-style panel of thorns and ivy on a black to yellow gradient.

A color illustration of my changing moon Lunar oc, Emerald, from an exalted game. She is a middle-aged woman with fair skin, emerald-green eyes with striking red eyeshadow, and long iridescent black hair partly held up by a golden comb with the rest pulled over one shoulder. She is dressed in an elegant green gown with puffy sleeves and a boob window, lots of gold and green jewelry, and a translucent green and gold floaty scarf thingy. The background is a simple green gradient with a crescent moon behind her head.

A digital illustration featuring two fairy characters standing together as a flock of pale teal moths swirl around them. One character has with pale blue-green skin, dark eye makeup and long orange-red hair, in blood-red and black helm and armor resembling the carapace of a Japanese rhinoceros beetle. They hold the second character, who has pale pink skin, soft features, and fluffy short pink hair, in a pink and green outfit reminiscent of a pink rose.

A digital illustration of a pale-skinned, horned masculine character with flowing wavy back hair, wearing black blouse and pants. He is standing against a blue background, surrounded by swirling wind and leaves, gesturing as though he is commanding them.

Two character illustrations on a flat black background.

Right: the character is an early-twenties, masculine human. He has warm pale skin, light brown short hair and green eyes. He wears a deep olive green and gold blouse, brown cropped pants, and brown lace up boots. He carries a brown leather messenger bag, and a barn owl is landing on his shoulder.

Left: a satyr character on a flat black background. They have light tan skin, pale ash blonde hair and fur, digitigrade furry legs and split hooves, curled horns, deer ears, and a long tufted tail. they are androgynous, wearing a cream blouse and green pleated skirt; and carrying a red hardcover book.

Digital painting of a winged centaur. He has curly hair and facial beard, and his horse half is white, and extremely furry. His human half is covered in tattoos and white body hair, and he is wielding a mace/hammer weapon that is in the shape of a horse head.

Digital painting of a pterosaur-like beast called "Wyvern Of The Sea". Its head, neck and upper torso is mostly white, it has a long yellow bill with sharp tips similar to a snapping turtle, a crest on top of its top beak, and an expandable pouch on its throat, similar to a pelican. There is a voluminous pouch of expandable sac around its neck and chest, similar to a Frigatebird, but it seems more decorative than functional. Its lower torso is a black color, with strong bird legs, that have blue webbed feet, similar to the bird Booby. Its tail is long, with fins running on its side, and on its tips.

It has wings that are more webbed than they are feathered, with a protruding thumb similar to a bat's, and three noticeable digits that are flat than they are wiry. It seems this creature is more reptilian and hydrodynamic, than it is avian and capable of flight.

Digital painting of an elegant merman. There is a glow of royal blue coming out of a cavity in middle of his upper torso in the middle that extends to his abdomen, and out of two columns of holes in his bottom portion. His tail seems to be a hollow flesh and the blue magic extends out to form his fish tail. There is a royal blue sword on top of the character; the sword is slim and sharp, and the blade is sculpted to have an impaled fish on its end.

fairy with giant blue morpho butterfly wings and a faint halo, holding a lantern that attract butterflies.

digital painting. a sketchy, dark scene showing three figures, a central one walking towards the viewer with a sword in skeletal hand. its head is a mix between a helmet and a skull, with four orange glowing eyes. the two other figures are shown behind it to its sides, indistinguishable silhouettes with glowing orange eyes.

Painting of a dimly lit woman with dark wavy hair and a loose nightgown, she's shown from the chest up, leaning forward and holding a person's face by the chin while looking at them seductively, as if leaning in for a kiss.

Double portrait of two different "sides" or personalities of the same fantasy character, a drow with dark grey-blue skin, long red hair and green lipstick. On the left she's shown with a calm, dreamy expression, looking off to the side; on the right side she's shown with an evil, devious smile, looking at the viewer and reaching a hand out towards them. Between the two at the center of the image is a big stone mask with glowing red eyes.
