Hi #PortfolioDay ! I'm Ieva, a freelance digital artist from Portugal specializing in TTRPG/fantasy character design and illustration! 💗

More info on my website; for commissions, join my Ko-fi for early access and my Discord for art updates!

Collage of three artworks side to side in a similar style.

1. A full-body digital illustration of Alexa in an Art Nouveau style referencing Alphonse Mucha's "Spring". She is a half-elf with fair skin and bright ginger hair falling in long swoops; her eyes are aqua blue matching the colour of the gems adorning her red beret, her single earring and her choker. She wears blue stays and red puff sleeves, long gloves and over-the-knee boots embroidered with gold. A cloth monogrammed with the initials 'A.I.' is tucked into her belt, and a flowing pink cloth wraps around her legs. Alexa is holding a silver rapier with one gloved hand and touching its blade with the fingertips of the other, as she looks to the side with a smirk. The background features Art Nouveau-style decorative elements with swooping vines, trailing roses and blooming lilies in a soft pastel colour scheme.

2. Full body Art Nouveau style of Ellia, a tiefling paladin, within an ornamental frame. She has ivory wings tinged with gold and pink, red skin with dark-tipped horns, short black hair, and pure gold eyes. She wears ornate white and gold armour. She is holding the Sword of Zariel with one hand; her red cape is folded over her other arm. All around her feet, snowdrops bloom. Ellia belongs to tieflingpaladin on bsky.

3. Art nouveau style drawing of Menardi, an elf woman with flowing white hair wearing metal and leather armour. She's standing in a misty/snowy landscape featuring bleeding heart flowers, and she's holding a bow in one hand and an arrow in another, looking down with a melancholy air. Menardi belongs to mimidrws on bsky.

Illustration of Amity and Kiana lying on their backs with their heads close together, reaching out to touch each other's hair as they look tenderly into each other's eyes. Stars swirl in the current around them. Amity is a dark-skinned girl with dragon-like horns and curly brown and pink hair. Kiana is a girl with pale skin and cat-like ears, white and purple hair, and yellow eyes rimmed in red makeup. Both characters belong to Lunewarden on Bluesky / Artfight.

Digital illustration of Alexa, a half-elven woman with pale skin, blue eyes and long red hair. She's wearing shimmery makeup and a circus ringmaster outfit. A heart-shaped spotlight is shining on her. She's holding a whip which is snapping in the air above her, as she touches a gloved hand to her top hat and smiles at the viewer.

Chibi lineup of the Forgekeepers: Artem, a tiefling rogue; Alexa, a half-elf bard; Dúri, a dwarf cleric; Theefsa, a goblin warlock; and Addan, an elf druid.
All characters other than Alexa belong to my D&D party friends (Theefsa belongs to lunelkie.bsky.social - Addan belongs to leki02.bsky.social); Alexa belongs to me.

drawing of two elf characters from Dragon Age series - my dalish warden, Khaguran Mahariel, on the left and Zevran Aranai on the right. they are sharing a kiss in bed as the morning light is sleeping through the curtains

llustration of a woman (rusalka) partially submerged in murky waters, only her head and one of her hands is visible. She's holding a skill in her hands and smiles maliciously at the viewer. She's surrounded by water and foliage. Illustration is in shades of green with purple accents (skull, headdress)

illustration of a female character with hare characteristics (nose shape, ears), wearing a goth dress and holding a tall glass of red liquid. Vampire fangs protrude from her lips.

art featuring @doughnat.bsky.social and my OCs, Syviis (elf) and Aquila (human); they are sharing a heartfelt embrace as Syviis leaped into Aquila's arms to kiss him. She's wearing green skirt and embroidered white shirt while he's dressed in gambeson and bits of armour. His hair also started to grey on the temples as it is unclear how long it has been since they have last seen each other. They are surrounded by green foliage.

A full body illustration of st4rryred's oc, Sumire, sitting in a chair with his feet up on a desk beside him as he reads a book titled "World's Best Jokes". Stacks of books lay around him on the floor and on the desk, and he's reading with a studious expression.

Vere from the visual novel Touchstarved is kneeling behind my oc Genesis, brushing his long hair. Genesis is sitting cross legged, eyes closed. Vere's long fox tail is resting off to the side.

Kuras from the visual novel Touchstarved with one hand pushing back his hair from his forehead and the other sort of collecting the rest of his hair over his shoulder. He's looking at the viewer with a smile. Two pairs of white wings are shapes behind him.

A digital illustration of a scene from AV Wilkes' 'All the White Spaces'. Jonathan, a trans man and the protagonist, stands in the centre, facing the viewer. He stares ahead in horror, his right hand clutching his throat. From his left eye, strands of bleeding red aurora stretch outwards. These auroras show visions of Jonathan's brothers on the Western Front of the First World War:
- A moustached officer smokes a cigarette in a trench, looking away.
- A soldier is twisted in the remains of barbed wire.
- Three soldiers wear gas masks, emerging from clouds of mustard gas.
- No Man's Land exploded to all hell. A tank is submerged in a shell hole in the distance.
- A skull pressed into the earth.
- A soldier holds a rifle and makes his way across the strait of No Man's Land.

Two portrait aligned digital illustrations of book covers.
Left: An illustration of Afaeran and King Galdor from the webcomic Wundor. They stand in the centre, facing each other. They are bordered by Ancient Greek inspired white columns and an arch above them. The columns are covered with grapevines, vine leaves, and hanging purple grapes. Afaerun is an oche skinned elf with flowing light pink-white hair, and wears a curved silver and ruby tiara, he smiles as he looks at King Galdor. King Galdor is a purple skinned monarch with a single white horn growing from his head. He has flowing dark purple hair, and wears a red leaf laurel. He holds Afaerun's cheek in a romantic embrace.
Right: Two male characters stand in front of each other, staring at the other. One is shorter, and wears a mustard yellow jumper, looking annoyed. The other is taller, with frizzy blonde hair, a purple hoodie, and looks smug. A border of cat toys surrounds them. A cat lies down, arching over the two men, and has a smile on his face.

2 different portrait illustrations side by side.
Left: Alder is a green skinned eladrin elf paladin. He stands nude in a forest. He wears a gold crown of laurels on his head. He looks down at the ground. He holds a sword in one hand, and a sprig of alder branch in the other, he has a shield attached to one arm. He is surrounded by green trees and yellow flowers.
Right: A digital illustration inspired by the pairing Hansry (Hans Capon and Henry of Skalitz from the game series Kingdom Come Deliverance). The illustration is influenced by a scene in the 2005 film Pride and Prejudice. It is separated into 3 panels.
Panel 1: Hans Capon looks behind him in quiet shock at his bodyguard Henry.
Panel 2: Henry has touched Hans' ungloved hand with his gauntleted one in a gentle hold. The panel is surrounded by blooming flowers: herbs and plants that Henry can forage on his journey. Marigold, St John's Wort, Valerian, Sage, Chamomile, and Dandelion.
Panel 3: Henry meets Hans' eyes with an unreadable expression. He quietly yearns beneath it.

A double page spread of a comic. The first page shows a twisted tree in the centre, the space between each branch a panel showing a plague blighting a kingdom. The protagonist called Wolfgang is engulfed in the blighted roots of the twisted tree in the throes of a nightmare. A voice tells him "Take heed, young Durward. These lands know only death, and within its centre, a horror festers. It feasts on all its roots can teach, and what life remains dwindles."
The second page shows a close up of the branches of this twisted tree. Between its panels are images of rot, bodies in body bags, dead fish floating, and the branches are infested with maggots. The voice continues "Soon, there will be naught to satisfy its hunger. But for every poison, there is an antidote."
