𓅪 Olive | she/they/he | artist for fun 𓅪

[plumstarling]

Hi! It’s my first time posting on this blog, so I figured I should introduce myself 🌿💜

You can call me Olive (she/they/he), and I’m a self-taught artist from the USA! I don’t sell my artwork, and I’m planning on mostly just posting fandom doodles and stuff

~ there will probably be a lot of moomins fanart because it’s my biggest obsession and muse ~

I’m part of many different fandoms though, so expect to see a variety of stuff! I may take suggestions, but I won’t do commissions and I don’t draw nsfw so if you’re looking for that, sorry, but I’m not the one for you lol

I’m relatively new to tumblr, and even newer to posting my art online (I’m very shy lol) so please be gentle with me! I don’t claim to be perfect, and just wanna share some of my ideas with people who might be interested in them too :)

Uhh also the usual stuff… DNI if you’re any kind of bigoted, proship, pedos, zoophiles, etc. Everyone else is more than welcome as long as you aren’t harming anyone <3 Don’t repost my art without credit and my permission, don’t use it to generate ai imagery, and don’t otherwise steal it (obviously)

Anyways I will be making a pinned post at some point but this is just a brief introduction! I hope you’ll stick around but either way I hope you have a lovely day 💜

Saw these ref images and just had to draw Viktor and Mel in them

Pls ignore Mel’s wonky anatomy 😅😭

More mermay content, this time jayvik style

Disclaimer ⬇️

I really struggled translating Viktor’s leg disability into his mermaid form since octopuses are naturally regenerative, so I gave him one leg that’s much smaller (growing back) and thought maybe he has a made-up mermaid condition where he can’t regenerate as well, since he’s half human. Octopuses also naturally can’t swim very often because one of their hearts literally stops beating, so that already makes him a lot less mobile.

I just wanna make it clear that I had no intention of erasing his disability, even though he’s not wearing a leg brace or using a mobility aid here! And if people have other ideas for how to make mermaid!Viktor equivalently disabled I’d love to hear them <3

Fun fact: his back brace situation is made mostly of seaweed in this au
