Hi #portfolioday! 🌟

I'm Catarina and I am available for work as an illustrator for private commissions, book covers and illustrations and as a ttrpg artist
Illustration of two women sitting on a cliffside, the ocean down below and fluffy clouds in the sky behind them. One of the women is a green goblin, orange hair in a ponytail and purple eyes, wearing a shirt and a scarf and trousers. The other woman is average human sized, with white skin, yellow flush to the cheeks and hair that goes from dark to light grey. Eyes are gold. She’s wearing a blouse, trousers, gloves, boots. They seem to be enjoying the sunny but windy day. Illustration of a woman standing in a mint coloured gown with big sleeves and gloves and holding a white sword. She is looking down a bit and smiling. She has literally white skin with golden flushes and her hair is a gradient of dark grey to light grey, tied in a bun at the back of her neck. The background behind her is purple and simple with a small translucent frame with stars and moons framing her head.
+++ There is a shadow over the top left corner of the picture, leaving the top half of her face in shadow and her eyes shining through. Half-orc man with purple skin lying on the sand with his long dark hair trailing into the still water that is reflecting the starry sky in blue and green. He looks content, looking up at the sky. Illustration of two white skinned women in a room, next to a desk filled with papers and a bag with herbs and medical things. A ginger woman with a grey streak in her hair is bandaging a brunette woman’s shoulder, and the two are looking at each other intensely.

Guess the movie from this month's study!!

#art #painting
Painting of a still from a movie. The silhouette of a person is balanced on one leg on a small pillar on a beach. The setting sun is bright behind the person and there are birds flying in the distance. The ocean is dark except where the sun is reflected, as is the sand.

It rarely happens I make digital sketches (I’m just a pencil dinosaur)

But, here you can see me designing a tavern sign - it’s still a work in progress.

Coincidentally to Spooky Day, I'd been working on an area in my game where I thought it would be appropriate to have a mist/fog effect and a tip from the roguelikedev discord lead me write animation code that used Perlin noise. I quite like how turned out

#LotR study as suggested a while ago on discord, about 1h long and many curses later
Very messy digital painting of the scene where Gandalf fights a balrog in The Fellowship of the Rings. It depicts a silhouette going against a beast of flames and ram horns with a sword and a staff that is glowing just at the tip. Which makes me realise I forgot to actually draw the bit of the staff that is now glowing. Oops.

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators.

Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

Happy Halloween!!

I'm a bit more quiet at the moment, social media can be hard and stuff, BUT if you're looking I still have some spooky and autumn themed items (and more!) currently in my shop! 🥰

Come on, have a look around, and spook responsibly today! 😌🎃👻

I guess if your goal is to make a bunch of money as a snake oil salesman, you might as well let AI make the snake oil for you.

I am always so incredibly disappointed when I see Witches using AI art to share their wisdom. It is so antithetic and lazy and sad.

@ukge.bsky.social shared a post on Instagram about a card game that has gAI 'art'. People (including me) commented on it expressing their disappointment. UKGE chose to respond by hiding the comments.
Should we assume UKGE is pro gAI and doesn't care for artists without whom the con wouldn't exist?
A post from UKGE Instagram account showing that it has 7 comments one of which is from Alderdoodle expressing disappointment. Same post, but now it has only 3 comments.
