Listen, you're just going to have to accept that this is my blog and I will be posting anything I see fit too. Accept my cringe! I know I have at this point. https://ko-fi.com/kelseyhowell
Welcome to my art/hobby/whatever blog! My name is Kelsey - aka CrownedInMarigolds - and I've been here since 2012. Yes, I am an ancient being.
My favorite subjects to draw are primarily OC things, and the sandboxes I usually play in are Vampire the Masquerade/World of Darkness, but I really love just about anything. While I have things I consistently like and reblog, do not doubt that I will just randomly bring up things out of left field. This is my mish-mash cringe blog, just be warned when following me! I'd also like to shout out my beloved muse @thesixthplaneteer, my true love and baby-daddy. He's a very talented writer, and a lot of my personal work is intrinsically tied up with his. Most OCs or storylines you may see from me here involve his own OCs in some way. Here is his AO3 account if you're interested in reading!
If you're interested in supporting me through commissions or just a nice lil tip for doing what I do, here is my Ko-Fi! Zero pressure of course.

My regular art commissions are: currently paused for summer break!
If you're interested in art commissions, please check out my art tag to get a feel if you'd like my style! Here is my art commission information post for more detailed info. I am open to art trades BUT I may be busy with commissions so please just ask! During my break, feel free to ask to be on my waitlist and I will get right back to you!
Tag Guide and OC Directory beneath the cut, if you're interested! Thank you for checking out my blog!
Tag Guide: In case you want to block anything or find certain info. I for the most part tag generously to make sure I can find everything!
I self reblog often, so it is under the self reblog! tag.
I often reblog others' commission post under commission boost
I post personal little dribbles about my life under personal.
My OCs:
Noa Vincenza Hidalgo-Giovanni - one of my main OCs. She is my Giovanni/Hecata VTM character, though I have and will continue to draw her across multiple universes, fandoms, etc! So don't be surprised if she's a vampire in one picture and a Vulcan in the next! Noa's Pinterest Board!
Khloe Osborne - my current VTM/V5 PC in my husband's chronicle, The Poisoned Peach, ATL by Night! She is a Ventrue Thinblood, in a coterie with three other Thinbloods as they try to stop the Atlanta Camarilla from enslaving the local Thinblood populace!
Parvati - another favorite character of mine. She was originally my first real Pathfinder PC that I played for a long time. I also started writing a book about her titled Crowned in Marigolds, sort of based on the Pathfinder world she had been placed in. Da da daaa, the namesake of my Tumblr! She is now my Vampire the Masquerade Ravnos Elder who is in the Ministry/Followers of Set! Parvati's Pinterest Board!
thesixthplaneteer's OCs: (the OCs I treat like mine but are actually not!)
Dr. Nythanel Loken PhD- "Elder Thinblood," known later in his unlife as the Thriceborn! He's the absolute favorite and Noa's best friend and for-tax-reasons husband. Cute and full of the audacity!
Ralph - Khloe's boyfriend and fellow coterie-mate, a Nosferatu Thinblood who was given the Nos Bane (arguably it's pretty light!). Former Spec-Ops, all love and all trouble. He's probably one of my most drawn boys... He and Khlo are a part of the Stakebait Coterie - which also include Christian and Kyle! The four best friends that anyone can have, all Thinbloods, all taking on ATL's Camarilla!
Harrakhty Hamdi - Leader of our main Followers of Set group. Gold and covered in artwork, he is his own walking sarcophagus.
I picked up the Vampire: The Masquerade artbook today.
It features my Nosferatu protagonist taking down Andrew (who’s in Zulo form), accompanied by a dramatic Latin inscription that translates to "Nothing human is shameful."
She had 10/10 Humanity by the end of the story, so yeah—we’re embracing our humanity, folks.
Sayonara Lara | Ep1 | I want to see it...the ending of a foolish mermaid's tale. The real value of the love that blossoms between mermaid and human! Show me whether it is true love or not, Lara! A tragic heroine, huh? What a dull ending.
tagging uhhhhh @couriers-mile @ark-inkweaving @aalinaaaaaa @phoenix-is-still-here @crownedinmarigolds and whoever else sees this
someone's being a little brat. yes, next Practice makes perfect chapter already incoming soon, and what of it.... you know how it is with those quick little oneshots lmao
The next one, I aim a little higher, and it bounces off his forehead. "Oops." I give him an innocent grin.
Amir chuckles and raises an eyebrow, throwing me a look from behind his magazine. Without commenting on it, he picks the gummy off his chest where it landed, and continues reading.
Another one hits his head. "Will you stop that," he demands, turning the page.
"Or what? You'll complain to your wife?" I counter, sticking out my tongue.
"Or I'll kick your ass," he replies. "I'm serious," he adds when I snort, and I'm not particularly impressed by his threat.
The smart thing would be to stop. I had my fun bothering him a little, and now we can go back to relaxing. Unfortunately, my self-control is seriously lacking. A few moments later, I throw another gummy at him with a big grin. "Bring it, old man."
Kyahhhh! Another Artfight revenge against @yekathrinia! Their character Essk Cape, a changeling - though can't help but keep those streaks... :3 They drew lovely art of Parvati for me!!! Thank you!!
