Hi #PortfolioDay! 🥰
I'm Dijana, a concept artist and illustrator, with traditional and gamedev experience. I love designing and painting characters, illustrations and portraits. I'd love to work on more covers and TTRPG illustrations ✨

📧: [email protected]
Demon Hunter - illustration The image is a book cover for an upcoming fantasy novella by Daina Rustin. It depicts two main characters facing off a monster in a forest. The main characters - Gray and Adrien - are turned away from us, and facing the monster hidden in the bushes. Gray is a slightly darker skinned mage, with long straight black hair, wearing a light green tunic and brown pants. She's placed in the foreground to the right. She wears a wide belt around her waist, and has one shoulder bag and one smaller bag visible hanging around her waist. She is preparing a fireball in her left hand. Adrien is a knight, and he's placed towards the left of the image. He's pointing his sword at the monster. He's wearing the Ravensguard blue tunic over a chainmail shirt, and brown pants. The monster is in the middle background, it's tall, standing on back legs, black with reddish highlights, red eyes, big beak, and two very long claws in front. Four of Wands - Radiant Fates - Stained Glass Tarot project The illustration depicts the Four of Wands tarot card. The card carries the meanings of family, celebration, home, belonging, etc. The themes of the card are depicted by 4 women sitting on a swing bench together, each holding their own wand pointing upwards. The swing has 4 branches going upwards, arching and connecting in the center, creating a frame around the women and a rosette-style window depicting a castle. The background is a glassy texture with a soft gradient incorporating blues, purples, yellows, oranges and pinks, with a yellow graphical element extending from the castle frame, and stars. The foreground is covered in more flowers in pinks and blues. The image is stylized, with heavy black linework, referencing a stained glass look in theme with the project. Aurelia - character illustration The image shows a stylized character illustration of the main character of Sky Across - Aurelia - on a white background. The character is a female, standing while leaning on a tall regal staff, while dressed in a "ceremonial" outfit for her setting. She’s wearing a stiff pale cream dress with blue decorative linings around the edges, and a v-neck cut, a gold feathery shawl draped over her shoulders, and she has thigh-high blue and orange leather boots with a small heel. She’s wearing gold jewelry, her earrings feature the same blue gemstone as her staff, while the leaf motif repeats between the bits of staff and her necklace pendant. She’s wearing a gold feathery tiara that matches her scarf. Her hair is long and dark red/purple, with a braid coiled around her head behind the tiara. The Witcher, TV show fanart, portrait of Geralt The image depicts a realistic grayscale side profile painting of Henry Cavill in his role of Geralf of Rivia, from season one of the TV show "The Witcher". The portrait is set against an out-of-focus landscape.

I was supposed to study for my language exam, but none of my note papers were good enough, so I spent an hour or two to set up.... 10 different ones in InDesign... a program I opened for the first time today.

Not the main quest, but a side-quest I'll accept 😂

I never know how to contribute to disability discourse tbh because mostly I'm doing okay these days (with hard work and caveats) but when I'm not well? I'm truly fucked for many months at a time. accommodations for me means "mostly I'm productive except when" and when is "4 months straight" you know

Youtube comment interaction with the first comment reading, 'From Shootie2967 - 'The fact 80% is AI...so sad' and the second comment replying 'From Slumdrop - 'Did you really want someone to stand in front of a train?' This is in response to a video depicting a series of AI videoclips.

This is possibly a long shot, but… does anyone remember an old wooden statue on the south coast of the UK where young women would stick bobby pins into its nose? IIRC, the pin would supposedly fall out in the same year that they’d meet their future husband. My google powers are failing me today…

YouTube hit us with a strike and blocked us from livestreaming for the rest of the week.

Their guideline violation message says that we have nudity posted on our Facebook and Tumblr pages that are linked in our video descriptions. These links have been published on our videos for years.

New painting I finished a few weeks ago.
I took several months off from art in general over summer after dozens of failed job applications and failed art test for a major IP.
Decided to do something for myself and came up with this mtg-esque zombie hydra.

Oils on panel- 16x20"
Rotspew Hydra. A gargantuan zombie hydra chases its prey through a swamp. It has holes in its body, the skulls are visible on several heads and it is spewing noxious gasses, bile and acid at an unfortuanate person.

They've brought various offerings, apples, flowers, a doll made of wheat stalks, candles. A digital illustration of a Brittany Spaniel wearing a harness with a lil pouch full of herbs. A digital drawing of a woman wearing a bear pelt/face on her head and shoulders. She's holding a dagger with both hands, one of which is that of a monster, with claws and fur.
