Thanks for the art share and to @commadork69.bsky.social for the tag! Very cool work, Jan 🙏

I’m Jenny and I do all sorts of stuff, digital and traditional. Here’re some storybook pieces I made ages ago:

@tonnerrecomics.bsky.social
@therovercomics.bsky.social
@roykerrr.bsky.social

A youn red headed woman wanders from a dark forest, looking scared. An old house is visible in the distance.

The young woman has entered the house and begins to climb a stairway lined with old portraits.

The young woman wanders down a hallway lined with portraits. The portraits are looking at her.

The young woman wanders down a hallway lit by sconces. A woman’s ghost peaks out at her from one of the portraits.

8”x10” oil painting of a house in winter, nestled among snowy evergreens.

Oil painting of old graveyard at sunset in autumn, on 18-inch by 24-inch canvas. Orange and red sky, with bare trees, green grass, headstones, and some spooky elements in blue and green.

18”x24” oil painting of a nebula in red and orange, above a dark forest in shades of purple, blue and black. A cozy campfire brightly lights a clearing next to an old log, and reflects on the surrounding trees. A rushing stream cuts through the forest.

“Amethyst Woods”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a dense forest path lined with bluish trees, filled with purple leaves. The forest floor is carpeted in hues of greens, yellows and purples. Strong sunlight streaks through the middle of the path.

🎃

Two men sit on a chair, one straddling it sideways on top of the other's lap, one leg dangling over the chair's arm. They lean against each other, the lower supporting the second, leaning into each other as if falling asleep, heads touching, limbs falling limp. Meanwhile the chair they sit in catches fire, threatening to consume them completely. One of the men regards the flames with unconcerned, open eyes, the other remains unmoved, as if the fire cannot wake him.

An angelic androgynous-masculine being with multiple pairs of wings crouched down on a ground spattered with gold. They have dark skin, long curly white hair, and cyan and red eyes. They are garbed in a white flowing garment which pools around them on the ground, and gold jewelry. They are seen from a high vantage point, the character looking up and reaching their hand to touch some unknown surface, which ripples where their finger displaces it. This clear surface is covered with floating blue flowers and petals. Eden belongs to Dovexii.

A semi-reclined man in dark spiky greaves, shoulder armor, taloned gloves, and pointed shoe armor - possibly for kicking. He has blonde hair and green eyes and slightly tanned white skin. He is wearing a bicolor tunic and has a cloak bundled over one arm. He is placed over a simple pale green forest themed background with stones, branches, and leaves and is framed partially inside a pale dull red circle. Character belongs to SaintsBeware.

A man standing and holding a lit cigarette, the other hand tucked hung on his pants. He has medium length blonde hair, slicked back with an undershave, with some falling down over his face. He has multiple facial piercings and earrings on the left side of his face. He has many tattoos. His right arm is a futuristic prosthetic. He is wearing a leather bolero style jacket and matching pants. A multitude of chains cross the open front of the jacket, hanging in falling arcs over his chest and wrapping around his neck like a choker.

an intimidating looking powerful elf god wearing a lot of gold, medals and a horned crown is looking into the camera, smiling menacingly. his eyes are golden.

multiple small baby griffons of many colours are in a safe outdoors enclosure. they have fruits and soft straws available.

a surprised-looking man wearing a formal professional red jacket and bow tie holds a black & white bunny in his arms. a grey parrot sits on his shoulder nipping at his hair.

two happy men are carving pumpkins on a table. it's autumn and there are many spooky decorations in their home, and lit candles on the table.

A woman cackles cruelly as she waves a spiky, heart-shaped mace. She's wearing a pink dress over a white ruffled shirt and poofy sleeves. A broken heart is tied around her waist. She has a giant, polka-dotted bow on her head and two long ponytails.

Camilla in a green frog hoodie with red eyes and pink cheeks on the hood. She has green horns and tight leggings with a pink, glass-like lotus insignia on the thigh. She gawps awkwardly at the viewer.

An odd woman rests atop a ledge, observing someone or something down below with a smile. There's a brightly lit backdrop behind her of neon reflections in tall windows, and a green, holographic sign. The woman has wet, dark teal hair and red eyes. She's wearing a black suit that covers her from the neck down and boots. It's raining, and the neon colors are reflected in the drops.

Comm for a-macaron of their ocs Az, a humanoid demon with black skin and horns and Evelyn who appears as a pale woman with white horns. They are embracing under the starlight.

Larithra (a purple skinned white haired Drow) sitting in a throne with a moonlit night behind her. She has bat wings, eye shine, and magical ethereal wolf heads floating around her.

A green male half-orc with black tribal tattoos on his chest and upper stomach. He has scars on his arm and torso. His head is shaved on the sides and the hair on top is long and in two braids.

A digital fullbody painting of an older man dressed in ornate robes, complete with long gray hair and half moon glasses. His color palette is mostly black and gold with splashes of blue and a warm bright yellow thrown in. He stands facing the viewer with his hands held aloft, palms up. His main theme is based around stars as seen in his star-shaped necklace and the star embroidery on his belt tapestry.

A digital portrait of a girl who is lit with bright light that is coming in from the viewer's right. It is illuminating 1/3rd of her face. Her hair is also highlighted with this light, some parts almost completely golden white to indicate the sun is piercing it. She wears a high necked top thats colored orange. Her eyes in this image appear a soft green/brownish combination, but are mostly illuminated so they seem to be a very pale slate gray with gold flecks in most of the iris.

A full body portrait of a freckled redhead in western style clothing. He wears polished black cowboy boots and black jeans; his shirt is just a low cut off-white shirt, sleeves rolled up to the elbows. This character is posed with one hand on his hip, the other at his side. His hair is speckled with lighter variations of red and streaks of gray, as is his beard / moustache. The visible accessories in this image are a bolo tie with a large chunk of turquoise and a shark tooth necklace.

A digital painting of a PoC character. He has shorter locs tied back with a gray hair tie. He has a big smile on his face, appearing cheerful. There are two identifiable markings on his face, two small moles; one under his right eye and one above his upper lip on the left side. He has dark brown eyes that both match his hair. His wardrobe ( what is visible ) consists of an off-white top that has a low neckline. The text on it reads " ART SHARE! "
