Hello there!

I go by Xochilex, or Xochi for short. I'm an illustrator and motion designer and I mainly draw and post about whatever nerdy thing I'm currently into. I mostly post digital art, but I may also share some traditional art and my mini painting projects from time to time!

#xochiart
Illustration of Morrigan from Darkstalkers. She is wearing a black tube top with a shear top underneath. Her sleeves are also shear fabric. The moon shines behind her with unnatural pinks and purples. Her shiny green hair floats and covers much of the composition Illustration of Avacyn from MtG. The drawing is a half body of an angel facing to the left, so that her face is in full profile. She wears pauldrons and a breastplate of black metal, with black sleeves. Her flowing white hair is left as solid white and unrendered, starkly contrasting the rest of the illustration Illustration of Yuriko from Magic: the Gathering. She stands triumphantly on a rooftop. The moon is behind her, with a silhouette of a tiger's head. The illustration plays with negative space, such that Yuriko's hair and clothes blends into the darkness of the background. Illustration of a cyclops girl with a big horn growing from her forehead, above her single eye. She is wearing an off the shoulder crop top which blends into the soft color of the background.

When she's not making her miniatures with the foundry's equipment, Bryanne takes her work very seriously and is always ready to lend a hand to her coworkers.
Don't ask her for anything during her break, though.

#xochiart #MtG #art
Digital illustration. Dragon woman raises a hand, seemingly siphoning lightning and magical energy from a contraption in the ceiling. In front of her is a table with a human cadaver. She rests her other hand on the cadaver's head, and lightning magic seemingly infuses the cadaver with life. It's eye is open, glowing brightly with the infused magic. Overall the scene is dark, with stark lightning coming from the magic Same illustration, digitally mocked up as card sleeves

The Wanderer (commission)

#xochiart #art
Digital illustration of The Wanderer from Magic: the Gathering. A woman with white shoulder-length hair and a white kimono sits on a bench. She holds a cup in her hands, with stylized steam coming out of it. Her eyes are closed and her expression is relaxed. A shiba inu's head rests on her lap, the rest of its body covered by her crossed legs. The background is a stylized landscape with a setting sun in the horizon. Sakura trees in the mid and foreground are losing their pedals.

a real tell in all of this is that the trans instructor wasn't alone in trashing this essay! a whole other person also said they agreed completely that it sucked. but as far as i can tell only the trans person is getting punished. www.oklahoman.com/story/news/e...
Samantha, I am the other instructor for this course, and I have also taken the time to read your paper. I concur with on the grade you received. This paper should not be considered as a completion of the assignment.
