Hi and welcome! I'm Rebecca, or Bee! (she/her) 🥰

Welcome to my tumblr & my pinned post! I'm a tiny lesbian pisces artist born in 1990 with the fashion sense of a victorian librarian. I love sapphic magical girls; gothic and fairytale motifs; going absolutely bonkers in craft stores, collecting ball jointed dolls & sewing them tiny clothes; 80s synth and epic movie ballads, and looking at photos of rodents as a treat. By day my job is an office lady, and by night I'm a vampire that never leaves my house. 🛏️ I am the #1 fan of my wife & fellow artist Nafisah (they/them) @dyemelikeasunset 🐻🧸🧡🩷💜

I took a mental-health break from art and social media for a few years, so I am not as chronically online as I used to be- but I'd like to at least get back into the habit of sharing my art here! all the art featured in this art vs artist is going to be queued up here, so please look forward to it~ 🥰

i haven't drawn Sam in a while. my wistful wasian, boba eyes tennis lesbian

The comparison to the older pieces makes me happy that the changes haven't been too drastic, I just keep aiming to solidify her visual identity to myself more and more

Divine Requiem 🌹🌙

(close ups & desc under the read-more)

I finished this some time ago now, but some of the character designs weren't finalized so it was kinda chilling in my files for several months... I really wanted to post something for my favorite holiday, so I finally cleaned it up.

I haven't properly introduced anyone being the tired cryptid I am, but these are my latest darlings that I may or may not be toying with a story for. (As one does to stave off the madness of living.)

From left to right, going clockwise, we have the lovely Josephine, Lorelei behind her, Felicity upon the coffin- (who is merely having a nap, I promise), Rajani in the center (who you may have seen before), Dalisay at the far right curtain, Evangeline seated to her left, Chantelle in front, and Marcel to the right.

also, shoutout to my wonderful wife @dyemelikeasunset for helping me really hash out the color palette and lighting for this piece. It was another thing that postponed me finishing it, but I love it now! 🥰

Happy Halloween! 🧛‍♀️🩸🦇

Beedalee on INPRINT ✨🍀🐝

I have plans to open my own personal shop in the future to include other merchandise, such as specialty paper and signed prints, acrylic charms, bags, etc- but I don't know when I'll get that all sorted out, so for now all the recent prints I've sold at convention are available for print-on-demand here!

Meet the Artist 2024! I'm Bee, and I will be your host ✨

On a whim, I made a new 'meet the artist'… but it became such an illustration that it felt quite odd putting so much text all over it! So I kept it simple. For further reading:

Some major art influences of mine include Mia Ikumi, Naoko Takeuchi, CLAMP (esp the Rayearth era), Yoshihiko Umakoshi (specifically his Precure and Doremi work), Kira Imai, and Chiho Sato.

My tools are still generally paper & ballpoint and/or sai2. I've been drawing quite a lot offline, actually... it's just a matter of time before some of it starts to make its way up here. I just need to scan and sort things out, which I've become quite lazy about... This summer's been just gross and melting away all my willpower. Hopefully it'll start easing up now!

Anyway, that's all for now, thank you for looking ✨
