Hi #PortfolioDay

I'm Ness and I'm a Black freelance illustrator based in NYC who loves making fantasy art with an emphasis on characters. I'd also love to get into book covers!

Thanks for looking 💕

A digital illustration of a fairy smelling a flower. The fairy has tan skin and a periwinkle afro. Her dress is made of purple petals and her corset, headband, and foot wraps are made of blades of grass. She has burgundy wings and a lady bug crawls on a leaf near her.

An illustration of a dark skinned elven woman standing in front of the sun. Her body is chubby and wears a two piece outfit which shows off her stomach. Gold Body chains hang from her top and around her stomach, as well as chains that handg from her shoulders. She wears gold necklaces, beads in her hair, piercings and gold cuffs on her bicep and wrists. A sun like gold structure also sits around her waist where her skirt falls from. Her ginger hair is big and provides a halo around her while she also wears a gold crown with a sun on it. The borders of the illustration are like a tarot card and has the image of a hummingbird, flowers and the sun.

Two friends playing together in a greenhouse. Damaia, a red skinned teifling, is sitting on a piano while she plays a wood lyre. She has purple locs in pigtails and has on a leather jacket and leather boots with spikes along her tail. Aranea, a tan skinned elf, is playing the piano while looking up at her friend. She wears a fancy purple dress with grey and black stripes. The greenhouse sounding them is a bit somber with plants in the background and some flowers. Damaia is a bard I've played in a one shot and Aranea is my friend's sorcerer.

A digital illustration of a human looking monster lady. She has brown skin and golden eyes with slits in them. Her jaw has a wide mouth with sharp teeth going from either side. Her neck is long enough to fit 4 thick golden chokers and her long black hair has golden eyes hidden within them like waves. Her waist is abnormally small and hands reach up from behind her, as if coming from a form of darkness below.

There’s a for separating down the middle with two boys sitting on either side. The one on the left is glowing and has similar growths on him. The one on the right is holding a flashlight

this is true. it's also true for all cops, and has been for a very, very, very long time. I don't think we can meet the moment without acknowledging that videos of cops/agents hurting people are essentially recruitment tactics for the people they want to hire more of

Julian Sanchez @normative.bsky.social · 11d

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.
