- Rememeber when i said I'd love to see the auroras some day? Well I did!!! Last night, I saw them dancing in the sky from my window (in Brittany, France). The conditions weren't ideal because I live in the middle of a city, but still! Auroras! I'm so happy ^^
- I can finally show one of my favourite paintings from last year! This was a commission for @illumicrate.bsky.social which was printed on a blanket included in a recent Afterlight box. Auroras are my favourite natural phenomena and i'd love to see them some day, so i'm very glad I got to paint one!
- I knew they'd look less saturated than on photos (because night vision and city lights), but what really surprised me was how quickly they moved/varied in intensity. I thought they'd be slower ^^ I'm still hoping I can watch them fill the sky in Scandinavia some day, of course :)
- I've already reposted Nala's portfolio guide in every single art discord I'm part of at this point, but since they also shared it here: it's great! Read it! A lot of professional artists (and all aspiring artists who want to do this as a job) can benefit from it!
- PORTFOLIO TIPS FOR ILLUSTRATORS I am an art director who has probably seen close to 1000 portfolios, many great, but many...not 😔 This is a doc I wrote featuring tips and tricks for how to make a better art portfolio site. Feel free to share with anyone who may find this useful <3 #art
- Reposted by Harkalé LinaïBloom Tender, AD @jameelawahlgren.bsky.social -- for Magic's Lorwyn Eclipsed. This is my favorite thing I've ever made.
- Tis the time of the year when, as tradition goes, I wish you all a merry orcmass! May Santork Klaus bring you the two-handed battle axe of your dreams :) Or a little wooden warg, that's nice too.
