This photograph shows a scene in a courtyard looking toward a stone and brick wall with double wood doors. The floor is herringbone brick. There is a vase with cactus to the left of the door. The left door is open and shows a motor scooter leaning against the wall down the corridor.

The New Galatea, a grand lady of marble, is carving herself out of a large marble block, in a baroque ruin. She’s given herself an outrageously elaborate marble gown and hairstyle, because she can.

The Rose Queen, in a grand rose gown, is surrounded by her court of elegant bee attendants in a spacious pavilion decked with roses. The bee courtiers are all vying for her attention.

A vast and mysterious faerie entity appears in the swirling clouds over an Italian mountain range, wearing a mystic golden amulet with a wonderful crystal. A lone cloaked traveller looks up at her.

For International Women's Day, I highly recommend the Elemental Logic series by Laurie J. Marks: four books that ought to be known as the Masterworks of Fantasy that they bloody well are. And a bonus: the gorgeous cover art for these editions is by @tanaudel.bsky.social, a very fine writer herself.

Dr. Sara Cleto and Dr. Brittany Warman have done remarkable work with their compendium of faefolk, "Fairylore." It is divine to see a thoroughly researched collection that not only details different folk, but addresses their role in story-telling and legends while also adding tales for each section…

The painting's depth is a direct result of its history. Below the final surface of deep olives, umbers, and acidic yellows lie the "ghosts" of previous iterations: cool teals, bright blues, and expansive whites. This buildup of acrylic media creates a complex, tactile texture that mimics the natural world—suggesting the weathered face of a cliff, the shimmer of moonlight on a dark sea, or the slow oxidation of ancient minerals.

Memory of a dream - a landscape that feels both solid and fleeting—a place that exists only in the space between waking and sleep.

An illustration of a cat sat on top of a skull. There are potions and books and paper strewn around, and a knocked over bottle of ink with some little inky pawprints leading to the culprit.

It’s been a full two months and I haven’t finished any new work yet (`・ω・´) yup I’m in a weird state of mind. However, I’m not NOT working on new things. I have been mostly working around in my sketchbook, trying to search for a new path. On the side of this, I have started some new work.

Das bekannte Gemälde von ihr in dem weißen, halsfernen Kleid, mit der Brosche am Ärmel und dem Reif am oberen Arm. Sie schaut den Maler an, hat ein schmales herzförmiges Gesicht, trägt die Haare in locken und hat auf dem Kopf ein Diadem.

Königin Luise von Preußen wurde im Widerstandskampf Preußens gegen Napoleon zur von der Bevölkerung verehrten Symbolfigur („Königin der Herzen"). Darüber hinaus pflegte sie einen bürgernahen Stil und ermöglichte ihren Kindern eine freiere Erziehung als üblich

A view of a lightly-snow-covered landscape with a fence and gate in the middle. In the distance are some snow-covered pointy mountains and there is blue sky and light white cloud above. The scene is bathed in sunshine.

So glad I got a day with fresh snow and sunshine! This is one of my most treasured views, taken from the front porch of my favourite cabin :)

An image with several smaller illustrations of my gray and black sea cow character, Umiko, against a soft blue background. She is a manatee with a face and tummy like a cow’s, and horns on her head. The various illustrations show her swimming around and enjoying sea grass, as well as her loving her tiny manatee child, who is just as round as she is. She is so rotund…

my first of @mortiscausa.bsky.social 's #marchtoCamelot drawings for this year! don't know if I'll be able to put this much effort into them all but I had fun with this one! as with last year, theming them around my ongoing GN because I'm still obsessed with it.

An illustration man of medium complexion with slicked back hair and an aquiline nose wearing thick furs and with a sword slung over his back is seen from a low angle in what appears to be a cave. He has a lit torch in his right hand illuminating the space, orange and red light bouncing around a greenish tinted background. He seems uncertain as he looks around. In the background a spirit looms over him, threatening him. It’s a strange hulking creature with a massive back hump, a circular head that seems to have no face, just a sphere of energy and horns jutting from it. One arm is a reaching the fingered claw; the other is a writhing mass of tentacles. The figure hasn’t seen the entity stalking him but seems to be looking around as if he suspects something is there but isn’t sure as to what. He doesn’t seem scared, but he should be.

Sarah Elisabeth Goode (1855 – April 8, 1905) was an American entrepreneur and inventor. She was one of the first known African American women to receive a United States patent, which she received in 1885 for her folding cabinet bed. #CelebratingWomen
