Lagoon

I’d like to share a small milestone. At a local Christmas fair, two of my pieces sold. My first sale of any of my artwork! See them here and here.

One of the purchasers mentioned using the piece as a Christmas ornament, which blasted open my mind with possibilities for next year.

Doomchar Aquarium 3

Here’s the last in the series I began as part of my gaming guild’s art contest. The winners have been declared, and I tied for third place. First place went to someone who created a fabulous, fully functional siege ballista (not to scale, lol). My piece was Elder Scroll-adjacent, at best, and I feel the judging was completely fair. And I really enjoyed creating the Aquariums.

Doomchar Aquarium 1

One of my guilds is running a contest for an ESO-inspired piece of art. This is my first attempt, something that allowed me to practice perspective. Doomchar is a house you can own in-game. I used a greenhouse as my tableau, posed a screenshot picture, and went from there. I figured, let’s do more undersea fish art! It’s as good a reason as any to be inspired.

Among the Seaweed

The title came last.

This is a repurposed piece that had, once again, faded. Just spitballing, I added dried flowers and leaves to it, but nothing was working. It made me think of undersea life, though, and I went from there. It’s not my greatest fish piece (out of 2 so far, lol), but it was an important step and inspiration.
