This oracle, which could probably afford to be a bit more polished, but it's too late now.
My OC, Amira.
A quick self portrait I did when I was in a particularly bad mood, which seems to be the only time I ever feel like doing self portraits.
Obligatory Sailor Moon fanart to honor the debut of the new series. It's kind of a remake of the cover of the first manga (of the series that was republished in 2003). I plan on doing the covers of all 12 books, and am currently working on the second one, featuring Sailor Mercury.
This one was a birthday gift for my coworker, who asked for a mint and coral fairy.
This description is copied from my deviantART post, cause I'm too lazy to rewrite all of it:
Sometime during high school, I started writing and illustrating my own little sort of mythology. Maya was the mother goddess, and all of the universe was born from her womb, and there were many gods, goddesses, and spirits having to do with different parts of our world. Digging through some of my old sketches, I stumbled upon this particular sketch, and a short story type thing that went along with it.
"The sun and the moon were once lovers. When the Earth was created, they spent every waking moment together, and wherever they went, they were surrounded by the most brilliant light. Life bloomed all around them, and the animals adored them.
But there was inequity. On any stretch of land that the sun and moon didn't occupy, the animals would do nothing but sleep, and the plants received no light. Soon, all of Maya's creations began to die, save for those touched by the couple's light.
Maya had no choice but to separate the two. She ordered that they each walk all the way around the Earth, on opposite sides, so that every part of the world would receive equal amounts of sunlight and moonlight, and no place above ground should ever remain in darkness.
Now the lovers may be together for only a few minutes at dawn and dusk, and for a while more every 18 years, during a time that we now know as a solar eclipse."
I did this piece a little while ago during kind of a rough patch. It's extremely personal and symbolic of what I've been dealing with in the past year. At first it was just kind of a rough thing I did to just get my feelings down and out of my system. I never planned on finishing it or cleaning it up, but a friend of mine ended up pushing me to finish it. The finished version is the one I ended up posting on deviantART. The ducks and the stuffed rabbit were just a little too personal, and wouldn't have read quite right to viewers.
And finally, just a very quick sort of fashion sketch.
Now I know I don't always remember to post my work here. If anyone would like more frequent updates on my work, your best bet is to follow me on my deviantART. Anything I finish gets posted there almost immediately, though my more in depth explanations of some pieces go here, as well as any sketches or unfinished work. I don't paint very consistently, so it's hard to really post here very often, and I'm sorry about that.
