Serena's Artsy Place

Just an artist experimenting with styles and abilities. I will try to post often, but I am a professional procrastinator, thus I may not post as often as I want, but I promise to try. Header and Icon done by me.

✒️We're halfway August so it's time to start thinking about Inktober lmao✒️

[danikatze]

Pff actually wonder if I'm gonna be able to do anything as I've felt burned out since last.. November? And nothing I've done helped so far so it's probably a good idea to go into hiatus for a bit.

artist in denial of being depressed: omg this 2 month long art block has been crazy... sorry i haven't updated any of my fics in a long while! it's just been super difficult to daydream! so weird that i've lost a little bit of passion for my current comfort character and ocs... this couldn't possibly have any implications or alternative explanations

[alleesaur]

EXCITED FOR ARTFIGHT!

I can never remember which team you're on

super excited to see you on the battlefield!!

I love your stuff!

stardust raaaaaaaaa (but i don't play to teams anyways either)

its official: tumblr is selling our data to Midjourney

Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools

Internal documents obtained by 404 Media show that Tumblr staff compiled users' data as part of a deal with Midjourney and OpenAI.

we'd been hearing rumors about this for a bit but now its open and out there. some details from this article

it goes without saying, but if @staff goes through with this its going to be an utter shitshow and im all but certain the website will not survive it.

everyone go enable this immediately. it can be a bit hard to find because “visibility” is under blog settings instead of general settings or privacy. you have to do this individually for each separate side-blog

if you can’t find it on the app then the update probably hasn’t rolled out to you, and you’ll have to go through the web browser. what a truly wild way/time to implement this

Here's the second of our merry crew, Corylyn! They're our ranger and they have quite an affinty for bees. --- #serenasartsyplace #myart #dnd #DungeonsandDragons #dandd #elf #ranger #bees #redhead #corylyn https://instagr.am/p/CfMf9thL7Ci/

The first of the long awaited party members I promised I would post. This is Xara, our party's paladin. She's Harriett's best friend, the two having grown up together. --- #serenasartsyplace #myart #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #characterart #paladin #aasimar #xara https://instagr.am/p/CfA5Rb3ri_M/

Harriett got some upgrades! She made a new friend, a rainbow python named Monty! Well, he's technically a sentient shapeshifting staff, but that's semantics. :P She also got two new cloaks and as long as she can be considered wearing them, they count, so more drapery for her! (We'll see how many I can fit before she's considered encumbered, lol.) (I'm working on some designs for my fellow party members too, so hopefully those will appear soon.) --- #serenasartsyplace #myart #art #digital #krita #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dungeonsndragons #dungeonsanddragonsart #dungeonsndragonsart #Harriett #wizard #gnome #player #party #OC #originalcharacter https://instagr.am/p/CZp3RpnrPLn/

Not dead. That's how these usually start right? I got accepted into art school! You'd think that means I'm drawing more (I am) but I'm drawing less for fun than I used to. Unfortunate. My resolution this year is to work in some drawing for myself more often, so maybe this account can be revived. Anyways! I also started a new DnD game, and I'm a player! So you all get to meet Harriett. She's an Order of Scribes Wizard and a Scribing Gnome. I've been enjoying her play so far. She's gotten some gear upgrades since this character sheet, so hopefully I can update with some process soon and eventually her updated design! --- #myart #serenasartsyplace #DnD #D&D #DungeonsandDragons #Dungeons&Dragons #Harriett #Wizard #OC #Player #Gnome https://instagr.am/p/CZGJyRusbDc/

Hey! I'm not dead! Gonna actually try this time to force myself out of my fear of sharing my art. So here's a DnD character of mine that's very near and dear to me. His name is Dharlius, and, as a forever DM, he is where I put all my dreams of one day being a player. I've had this character for a while, and this is the first iteration of his design I'm actually happy with. Finally feels like it suits him. --- #myart #serenasartsyplace #DnD #dnd #d&d #dungeonsanddragons #dungeonsanddragonsart #dndcharacter #d&dcharacter #tiefling #demonboy #demon #oc #originalcharacter #Dharilus https://instagr.am/p/CSLhv-9r64g/

Day 27 - Nightshade + Harvest festi- Wait. Something's not right here. This is not lining up. Ignoring artober prompts to draw murdoch characters? Impossible. I have never, not once, ever, done this before. At all. Couldn't be me. Oops, lol. In all sincerity, this piece took quite a bit, and I'm still not sure I'm happy with it. This was good practice, showing me where I need to step it up. --- #serenasartsyplace #myart #inktober #inktober2020 #artober #artober2020 #drawtober #drawtober2020 #murdochmysteries #Ruth #ruthnewsome #newsome #higginsnewsome #ruthhigginsnewsome #portrait #pencil #paper #sketch #faces #face #siobhanmurphy https://instagr.am/p/CG4eshyFy7e/

Day 21 - Oops Went off-list again.

Day 6- Beetle + Wicked Apothecary Super excited for wicked apothecary. This one ended pretty bare-bones due to time contraints, but I still quite enjoy it. --- #serenasartsyplace #myart #inktober #inktober2020 #artober #artober2020 #drawtober #drawtober2020 #beetle #wickedapothecary #apothecary #potionmaking https://instagr.am/p/CGCTlWplcyP/
