Seven cute bunnies summon the carrot oracle with a sacred carrot pendulum in the middle. The floor is glowing with an intricate pattern. Swirling magic surrounds this cute little crowd wearing blue-turquoise capes. May they bring us a bright future. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-18012023-945702169

Mysterious purple orange sci-fi landscape with lot of clouds. Leading to a tower brightly illuminated by a yet unknown and mysterious light source. Alien architecture can be seen in the foreground, weather or science stations perhaps :). https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-14062022-919261348

Determination, Resilience, Persistence. An arctic landscape with sheets of floating ice and icy surfaces with cracks. In the background, we can see a snowy mountain peak, the rest of the mountain is covered with swirly clouds. Birds and moving clouds are heading in the mountain's direction. The main attention lies on the nine high icicles. On the middle icicle a polar bear found a way to reach the top. It is a difficult endeavour on this slippery surface. At the top of the icicle is a tree with orange leaves, a symbol for hope. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Nine-of-Wands-775481497

Fly through of part of a Keeper level directly in the Unreal Engine editor. Part way through I turn on all of the game objects the player doesn't see -- it takes a lot to make games work.

A fantasy sci-fi landscape. Mostly calm. In the foreground, we can see small cities at night. This mysterious planet has green vegetation, and we travel from a warmer pink area to the colder mountain ranges. Someone has managed to build the main cities in these mountains. The purple wind creates a bridge between the valley and mountain tops. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-01122024-1128429919

A rather blue fantasy sci-fi landscape. A long path leads us to a gigantic stone structure, a bridge entrance, looking like two dragons in love, forming a heard shape with their heads. Behind them we can see a glowing planet and the atmosphere gets warmer. Far in the the back we see high alien architecture. A lot of landscape still to explore. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-02062020-844341686

4 images - Process of Plucky Puffin. I. A render from above - created with Blender II./III. Model details of the sushi & radio. IV. The final artwork (>2 months of work) was painted with Krita. Plucky means having determined courage in the face of difficulties. Puffins are resilient, coping with harsh weather conditions, climate change & habitat loss. I chose to give the Puffin a profession as a Sushi chef, wearing a fancy hat with intricate patterns, next to taking care of the little puffy pufflings. It takes a long time to be a chef. Puffins' diet consists of a lot of fresh fish.

ICYMI - the WIP images 😊. A crazy amount of work, to match the plucky in Plucky Puffin.

Plucky means having determined courage in the face of difficulties. Puffins are resilient. They must cope with harsh weather conditions, climate change & habitat loss. I chose to give the Puffin a profession as a Sushi chef, wearing a fancy chef's hat with intricate patterns, next to taking care of the little puffy pufflings. It takes a long time to be a chef. A puffin's diet consists of a lot of fresh fish. It is a place in or near the ocean, the puffin's element. Water clashes against basalt stones inspired by Iceland, a region where these birds live (next to, e.g., the UK, Norway, Greenland) while caring for their young ones. In the center, the Plucky Puffin chef rolls the next meal with the sushi mat, nervously looking at the puffling that studies the menu, unsure what to order. The chef moves to the left side, checking if the "customers" are well cared for. Tuning the radio if the music frequency isn't to everybody's liking. I chose to give the radio a "compass frequency". Then the Puffin slides to the front right side, serving a hungry but happy puffling its order. Others are waiting for the last one to order or can't hesitate to enjoy these delicacies. The table is set: natural wooden bowls, kitchen utensils, rice, wasabi, ginger, fresh fish, serving boards, a sesame seed shaker, and coral decorations. Everything is as cozy as possible to forget about the harsh world for as long as possible. In the background, we can see a volcano erupting & thunder striking. https://shop.sylvia-ritter.com/collections/prints/products/plucky-puffin-signed-giclee-print

Oracular Oriole - an oracle bird reading prophecies from matcha tea (milk foam in the shape of an open eye) with the inscriptions on the cup " Know thyself "- a Greek maxim referencing the oracle of Delphi. Oracular Oriole has great taste and proudly wears its sacred matcha brush as a hat. A cozy atmosphere adds to the magic, candles, and bowls filled with matcha/autumn leaves, spices like cinnamon, anise stars, vanilla pods, pumpkin/matcha powder, its favorite orange/lemon/citrus zest, and blueberries can be seen, too. In the front, two orioles are visiting this magical place none of them look like the other. They are much smaller than the mystical Oriole in the center of attention and are here to receive their reading. The sand on the floor forms lots of circles, a bit like a zen garden. Some sand routes seem to have moved a teapot to the scenery. These circular patterns also appear in the background but are colorful seagrass decoration. Electric pulses and colorful light show how far the supernatural work is at its current state. What will the future hold for the Orioles? Let's hope only the best :). https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Oracular-Oriole-1107736015

Chirp, chirp! 🌿 💫
Oracular Oriole is very excited to be able to be a part of your homes in form of a powerful & colorful psychedelic print.

After 93 days, "Questing Quokka" is done (inspired by Ubuntu release name 25.10). Created with Krita & Blender. Quokkas are cute & live mostly in southwest Australia. While thinking about "questing" the idea of a quokka playing pen & paper RPGs evolved. Let me introduce these adventurers; a thief with a leather messenger bag, quest map, who happens to play the lute; a wizard wearing a hat, cape, holding a wand, specialized in magic spices/potions as shown on the magician's belt; a brave dwarf wearing a fur coat (fake!), holding a powerful hammer while being unable to resist to eat a delicious leaf from the wizard's wand; the game master in the middle wearing a red hooded cape, a necklace, equipped with mystic books, lying on one of these books, a sugar glider hugging a glowing dice. Flying over Australia on a magical carpet. The quokkas are wearing sandals/boots, standing mid-air above small tree stumps. It is a slightly challenging journey. BG - Forests, castles, stars, and the blood moon. They enjoy a cup of tea. The light for their character sheets, dice, and tools appears from the tree stumps illuminated surface/lanterns with intricate patterns in pastel colors. The map on the table with a pinned mini version of their carpet shows their current location. A golden chalice with golden eucalyptus (a delicacy!), the treasure they are desperately looking for. Ready to start their first adventure. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Questing-Quokka-1295346802

We can see two sci-fi door arches on an unexplored planet. The first one is in the shadows right in front of us. Blue bright light spots. can be seen here and there, probably charging power. The other door arch has been activated, bright glowing and full of energy it might be a portal to another galaxy. It is falling apart, as shown by the wind and power it creates. A great adventure for all space and time travelers awaits when they are not too slow drinking their morning coffee or tea. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-02122024-1128934920

A small jackalope artist is not happy with its recent artworks. Some paper was crumbled up, pencils were broken. Five bunny spirits (in the jackalope's mind or real life) are there to take care of this bunny by bringing tea, a blanket, a scented candle, a flower as a symbol of nature, and an award for being the best of itself. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-21122023-1003965492

Good Spirits.

Blue cyan fantasy landscape. A bright white ghost creature is forming from the waters. In action - building a new city with it's magic out of snow and ice. In front we can see lights, signs of an alien civilization. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-01072023-969740488

Magic ❄️ ✨️

Space! We are witnessing an alien on the right side surrounded by purple-pink fog. It is tending its attention to the rather cold universe. This creature is a creator, guardian, and protector of the planets holding and spending time with each new world. There is no rush. Good things take time to evolve. We can see several tiny planets floating in a sacred and ancient ocean. Every globe has a good start for building a new world for unknown civilizations. The planets will leave this protected space once they reach their unique temperature and atmosphere. This way all variations of different lifeforms can exist, helping each other to reach their full potential. In the background, we can see one of the planets heading into space. It will return to the galaxy ocean when its time has come in a billion years. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-15122024-1134206785

We are on an alien planet. A psychedelic sun in the far distance catches our attention. Cities are aligned to the sunbeams, reaching far into the distance. Giant stone statues are worshipping the sun. On the left, they are holding planets with different colorations from blue to yellow. On the right, the statues have empty hands. Do they take turns with this precious responsibility? The clouds follow the sun, and stars shine brightly. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-01122025-1270235963
