Persephone's Alternate World

A place for imagination not only to run free, but to take over!

Well, today was the day that I finally had to take down my featured artist wall at my local gallery! I'm sad to see it come down, but I'm happy that people seemed to enjoy it while it was up! Gives me more hope for the future, where I can hopefully do more of this kind of thing! I took a pic of each one as it was taken down, to remember the cool stuff I had up 💗 . . #myart #artistoninstagram #traditionalart #fantasycreatures #fantasyart #dragons #cats #butterflies #magical #psephrain_art #gallerywall #artgallery #galleryexhibition #artshow #frames #fancy #proud #excited #partysover #success #prismacolorpencils #artmarkers #gelpens

So in an effort to get myself in higher spirits, I've been listening to one of my favorite music groups, FAKE TYPE, quite a bit. Their videos inspired me to try out their art style on my own character, so here you go, my attempt at drawing myself in the FAKE TYPE style! I included a close up, the uncolored line art, and of course my reference! Lemme know if you like these guys too, or if I got you into them! I'm a big fan, haha. Also, if you guys know any other styles it might be fun to draw Persephone in, feel free to say so! . . #myart #inspired #differentartstyle #faketype #fakestyle #tophamhatkyo #dyesiwasaki #japanese #rapmusic #experimental #psephrain_oc #witchsona #artsona #grand #witch #magicalgirl #colorful #drawingexercise #traditionalart #inkpen #artmarkers #prismacolor #stage #curtains #stars #city #artistoninstagram

Here are some quick flat-color doodles of my demon siblings, Prince Ellroy and Princess Flarria! They actually aren't related by blood. They were both adopted by the king of a dark demon realm to do his bidding and serve as figureheads. Ellroy is a pop star who lures in chicks for their souls (though not by choice), and Flarria captures the hearts of men for souls as well (she enjoys it for the most part though). I might draw some other OCs I use less soon too, just out of boredom. . . #myart #doodles #characterdesign #characterreference #psephrain_oc #markers #coloredpencil #traditionalart #siblings #demons #incubus #popstar #red #prince #imp #princess #purple #fire #claws #wings #royalty #mischievous #artistoninstagram

Here's a new creature design, at last! I call this species the "Sunray Mantis". Its design is very lightly inspired by Greek style stuff, not sure if anyone can tell but it doesn't matter that much anyway! I will say though, picking out good colors for this was harder than usual, haha. Hope you guys like it! . . #myart #psephrain_art #sunrays #mantis #species #design #fantasycreatures #fantasyart #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #prayingmantis #cute #sunset #colorful #warmcolors #braids #antennae #claws #insect #artistoninstagram #tonedpaper

My friend suggested I draw myself like a Team Skull grunt to cheer me up, since we both love Team Skull in Pokemon USUM so much, and I haven't been doing the greatest. So I did! And y'know, I got a good chuckle out of this doodle, so mission accomplished, haha. By the way, I didn't realize it but this is actually the first time I've ever drawn shorts! . . #myart #pokemonart #pokemon #pokemonsunandmoon #Alola #teamskull #teamskullgrunt #fanart #alolanmuk #litten #joltik #doodle #psephrain_art #me #traditionalart #markers #poison #fire #bug #artistoninstagram #pokemonteam

So, as a way to try and move forward with my comic, I've decided to draw simple, updated refs for every character! And of course I started with myself, not out of narcissism, but more because I know how to draw her the quickest, haha! I really hope I can get moving more on this comic, at any rate. I can keep trying to improve it for more years in planning, but ultimately at some point I gotta make an actual move! . . #mycharacter #mycomic #myart #psephrain_oc #witchsona #artsona #magicalgirl #grand #witch #visualarts #cats #characterreference #characterdesign #fantasyart #doodle #coloredpencil #markers #magical #planning #traditionalart #artistoninstagram

Here's another weird creature design, the Pinata Fairy! I actually made this drawing when I was really sad the other day, because making stuff with a bunch of colors always cheers me up! I was a little worried it was too much, but looking at it again now, I'm still super happy with the way it turned out! . . #myart #pinata #fairy #fantasycreature #fantasyart #party #colors #colorful #brightcolors #rainbow #stripes #spots #wings #purpleeyes #magical #cute #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #psephrain_art #artistoninstagram #tonedpaper #magical

My last kind-of maybe #mermay2018 contribution! I'm calling this species the "Peacock Shrimp Lobster", since it kinda resembles all 3 of those things, haha! This is probably one of my favorite creature designs that I've done so far, I LOVE using cool colors and blending blues is really super fun! I hope you guys like this little buddy too! . . #myart #design #fantasycreature #fantasyart #mermay #blue #green #peacock #shrimp #lobster #feathery #shiny #seacreature #creaturedesign #cute #antennae #underwater #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #psephrain_art #artistoninstagram

I finally got around to making this fan art for @belindraw of our two art-sonas and their giant art tools of wonder (and possibly destruction)! Belindraw was one of the first accounts I seriously started following when I first joined the IG community. When I saw this magical girl with the giant paintbrush I knew I had to draw her and my giant pencil-wielding witch together! She's a cool artist and a really sweet person, so you guys should go check her stuff out! . . #fanart #belindraw #magicalgirl #fanartbelindraw #witch #artists #artistsofinstagram #traditionalart #doodle #coloredpencil #psephrain_oc #myart #artistsunite #magical #color #peacesign #hopeyoulikeit #pencil #paintbrush

I drew this Celebi a couple weeks back, actually, but in the midst of all the crap I've dealt with lately I forgot to post it! I don't exactly see this as a "Mega Celebi", but more like a "Goddess Celebi" or something. I definitely modeled a lot of her decorations off of my idea of how the goddess Persephone looks, haha! Celebi is definitely my favorite Mythical Pokemon, I love her so much 💗 . . #myart #fanart #design #pokemon #pokemonart #grasstype #psychictype #mythicalpokemon #celebi #gen2pokemon #johto #goldsilverandcrystal #flowers #nature #sprite #green #greenery #blueeyes #beautiful #timetraveler #forestguardian #traditionalart #artistoninstagram #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #psephrain_art

This is a creature design that has been around for a LONG time. The pictures in this post, in order, are from now, 2015, and then 2013! When I was younger I always loved the idea of forest sprites, or any kinds of little creatures working in the background with nature. These little things were my favorite of the designs I came up for that idea, and I've kept them ever since! I'm actually pretty sure I was drawing them even earlier than 2013, but that's the oldest drawing I can find. Anyways, hope you guys like this little creature, because I don't think it's going anywhere! . . #myart #psephrain_art #psephrain_oc #brown #white #green #sprout #leaves #forestcreature #greenery #fairy #sprite #yelloweyes #cute #fantasycreature #fantasyart #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #whitegelpen #tonedpaper #design #artistoninstagram #redraw #fluffy #small

Another new redesign is here! The second picture is the old 2013 design of this creature, which I named "the Sea Maid". I've redrawn this little cutie several times since that first drawing, but this is by far my favorite redesign, and the one I'll probably keep at the new official one! I know she's not really a mermaid, but she has "Maid" in her name and is a fantasy sea creature, so I'm counting this towards the MerMay theme also! I hope you guys like her as much as I do! . . #myart #psephrain_art #seacreature #aquatic #fantasycreature #fantasyart #cute #design #redraw #mermay2018 #mermay #pastelcolors #frills #delicate #small #fins #dress #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #artistoninstagram

Another drawing design that I revamped! This guy's original sketch (the second pic) was made in 2016. I absolutely adore his colors, cool color schemes are my favorite! I got to use a new set if colored gel pens on his outline too! Hope you guys like him as much as I do! . . #myart #design #illustration #traditionalart #prismacolorpencils #gelpens #dragon #fluffy #purple #green #blue #coolcolors #fantasycreature #fantasyart #cartoonish #blueeyes #wings #gemstonenecklace #orange #beautiful #artistoninstagram #psephrain_art
