during a time where deity worship and religion in the witchcraft community is prevalent, i would like to remind both new and seasoned practitioners alike that you do not have to worship deities or work with them in your magical practice if you do not want to - it is not a requirement ♡

ISO ART

Hi all! I would love someone to make a pfp for both my main account and my side account on Tumblr!

Main = @beneaththebriar

Blog = @beneaththebriarblog

Message me and we can get something going! I'm interested in paying $ USD for your art <3

[beneaththebriar]

i can tell your icon is AI generated... if you're truly in touch with nature, you wouldn't have a data center waste a ton of water to spit out a piece of mediocre slop, when you could easily pay an artist to create something with actual life and soul.

Hi hi! I used a few basic graphics I found on Canva, which I didn't know allowed AI art!

I am sorry you wasted your energy on this, and I hope you feel better after saying what you needed to say. And thanks for saying its Ai! I wouldn't have known otherwise :)

Also, I never said I was "in touch with nature". In fact, I feel very out of touch with nature. I mean, you and I are both typing behind screens...so thank you for the reminder, and I'm gonna go outside and touch some grass.

Oh, and before I go, is everyone on Tumblr this rude? I mean, there are a million ways to let me know something is AI, and this is what they chose?

P.S. I am super against AI art, so, yeah, I didn't do this knowingly.

And, another thing, I do pay artists for art!

In fact, I'm currently looking for some art of Demeter <3

[beneaththebriarblog]

Quick Note: I am looking for someone based in the US (for shipping reasons), and who accepts payment in USD over either PayPal or Venmo.

Hi all, I am currently looking to buy some hand-drawn/hand-made art. Currently, I am looking for mostly sketch-style art pieces. I would love to chat about the price for your art, and we can settle on a final amount, but I can pay for shipping as well! My range for a color-free, sketch-style piece of art of the goddess Demeter to be shipped to me is around USD $15-30. The range includes shipping, and the idea that I may ask you to change one or two things before we settle on the finished art piece.

Just for the sake of ultimate clarity, and so I don't waste anyone's time, I am looking for either a pencil or a pen sketch on a white background, paper preferred.

I like the strength in her arms in this statue. Personally, I feel like this is a very accurate depiction of her, though she probably wouldn't mind the other ways she is depicted in art!

I really like her hair and her confident stare ahead in this image. To me, she has this energy of always being confident and looking ahead to the future, always concerned with what lies ahead. The next year, the next harvest, the next problem, etc.

Up next, the style I am looking for! I am down for references to show off your specific style, but I love the image above. It reminds me of a book I used to read as a child. I know this image is in color, but please remember I am interested in paying for a colorless piece!

Images from "Frida", a children's book about Frida Kahlo. Written by Jonah Winter and illustrated by Ana Juan.

Again, I know these images are in color, and a lot of the image's energy is in the color, but I really enjoy the style! I think it would look really good in black and white/gray. Alongside having a drawing of Demeter, I would love her to have a few things around her that represent her (what she is the goddess of, etc.).

Send me a message, and we can get something going! Thank you so much for your time <3
