About to request access. =)

@ellette-giselle

I’ll try to get it in today.

Lolllll. That’s relatable. I have most of my boards hidden, but I needed some public for a background check. *Shrug* I love all the options for privacy and data security though. Nicer than most other forms of social media I’d encountered.

@whalekeeper

Oooo, interesting question. I’ve definitely wanted to include more “different” abilities. It’s just a bit of a balance, since I want everything to fit a character and story. I won’t add something just to rep it, without any reason in the story or character’s personality. If that makes sense? I have been wanting to write something…[Read more]

Hmmm. Yes, but it was some time ago in a long forgotten story.

She was a cat who was typically a reserved, sometimes intimidating personality, but could randomly fly off the handle and be a complete goofball…although usually only when with her family. My younger self also made her this fantastic archer who would eventually save the day through…[Read more]

I’m getting flash backs to our conversation about Nicolai Fechin’s portraits. XD
I like these portraits. This method of shading and slightly impressionistic style is working out really well.
And if course the unicorn. How can we bypass the unicorn. 🤩🦄

@ellette-giselle

Da! I have the day off today, so I’ll draw something new. I’ve actually started doing a visual journal, which I highly recommend doing, but the last page was a little too… IDK. Not personal, exactly, but I think I’ll make something new for the circle. Maybe. I played with abstract stuff, kinda sectioned the page out like a…[Read more]

🎶 She’s alive again! 🎶

(Honestly I should stop gasping when people show back up. I might inhale a fly or something)

Yeah, Leon and Riker… they’re probably enjoying the reprieve. Poor chaps.

So thrilled you’ve gotten into fantasy. I love his-fic, but there’s this side of the fantady that is just…

@rae

That’s adorable. And Canva elements are fantastic to play with. I hope the kitties appreciate this awesomeness.

Glad y’all are enjoying this stuff!

@ellette-giselle (Definitely!)

@power

The question is why is he babysitting? I Ban-Serecon could be a horrible, no good babysitter, or a kinda decent one. He would enjoy lording over his charges and probably hit them if they did anything out of line. And he’d use them as messengers, errand boys, or some such…[Read more]

@loopylin

Great question!

I think we all put little bits of ourselves in our characters. It’s how we make sure they’re human. I relate to pretty much all my brainchildren, although some more than others and it can be in obscure ways.

In my old WIP Kingdom of Shadows wich I unfortunately never finished, the first mc was supposed to be like me. B…[Read more]

@rae

He looks great though! The shading and blending is supper smooth and the contrasts are neat. I really didn’t notice his eyebrows.

But I totally get what you mean about there being no “undo” button.” I love traditional art, the sensory experience of drawing and painting as much as the actual result, but the point of no return is scary to…[Read more]

BABYSITTING 👶🏻

Onnendel is a decent babysitter, despite being blind. He loves kids. Has an awesome intuition about when they’re up to trouble, and can miraculously keep them in order. They generally like him too. He likes to gaslight them into thinking he can see. Keeps things simpler.

Dwogin is actually not a horrible babysitter. He knows many…[Read more]

@loopylin

It’s adorable and perfect thank you so much I love it!

Embroidery can be a pain to illustrate. You did a great job! All the details, his expression and scarring, are right. My little Slovak-Slavic boy. I love him. It’s lovely. Thank you again!

@whalekeeper @ellettegiselle @anyone who wants to join the ArtCircle

Ok, I played with sketching a bit… Here’s my favorite part of a page I sectioned off. I’m planning to watercolor it once I do all three, but it’s late here so I need to stop. XD But here it is!

And because it might be a little bit until I can do that, and I am actually very…[Read more]

HEY Y’ALL.

Have you watched the Kingdom Pen youtube channel? It’s gold.

That is, I haven’t watched much of it, but what I’ve seen is splendid. And of course, many of you have probably looked at it before. I don’t know why I didn’t, since Kathleen was actively working on it during my first few years here.

If you want writing advice and some…[Read more]

Interviewer: So Dwogin, what do you think about Travenor’s friendship with Vanere?

@theducktator

I was planning to, but I don’t think I will. My schedule is probably going to be really packed. But I’ll be interested in hearing how it goes!

It snowed yesterday!!!
