Hello #PortfolioDay ✨ I'm Lyanna and I create fantasy and sapphic illustrations! I'd love to work on book and ttrpg projects, and I'm available for private commissions

A portrait of Ipomoea resting against a bush of ipomoea flowers. Her hair is spread across the blooms and the leaves, and her left hand gently touches a flower close to the shoulder.

Ipomoea is a blue tiefling with gem horns, and long, wavy white hair that sparkles in the shadow. Her eyes have a dark sclera with a white iris. Three small stars shine between the horns.

In the middle, Elaine is standing while holding her sword, while the personification of the moon is sitting behind her and almost embracing her gently. On the left, Elaine is holding a white lily, the bottom decorated with more white lilies and ipomoeas. On the right, Elaine's hand is showing holding her sword. The same flowers decorate the bottom of the scene.
The phases of the moon are shown across different parts of the artwork (crescent/waning moons at the bottom, half moons on the sides, full moon in the middle scene).

On the right, Thalia leans forward Eirwen with a red flower in her hand. On the left, Eirwen reaches out, her fingers delicately brushing against the petals while her left hand brushes through Thalia's hair. Around them winter is thawing, flowers and foliage emerging still covered in a little snow.

Camellia is holding Ametista in her arms as she pierces her heart with her sword. Ametista looks peaceful, her arms wrapped around Camellia's shoulders.

In the background there is a scene from their past. Camellia and Ametista are kissing in the gardens, a warm light pouring over the scenery.

The artwork has a golden frame with ornamental swords at the bottom.

Wait a minute, who decided it was #PortfolioDay again?!

Anyway, here's some recent paintings I've done. I'm an indie #comics creator with a love of art history and manga. I've shifted into watercolor painting and I really like it!
