Hi hello I have a new obsession here !
2025 is over ! It was a very stable and clam year for me :)
I decide to chill with art and progression, try things, learn things, fail at things, and... I liked it ! I think I didn't created my most exciting pieces of art this year, but all of them felt "deliberate", I always had a clear goal in mind doing them ! I tried to get better at rendering, and values, and composition, and characters which overall, I think I achieved to my liking. I also "tried" stuff, even if for now, it is still quite shy, I went in different directions, without focusing to much on style or identity ? I just wanted to explore ? and not worry too much about a brand or anything.
Which overall, gives a pretty incoherent look to this recap, but I see art has having moments of chaos and moments of order, Im very much in a chaos episode, and I think we should not fight against it, just embrace it, and create whatever comes, I trust it will all makes sense in the future !
After leaving 2024, I felt discouraged about my work, I had the feeling something was lost, and I didn't know what, or how to reclaim it. I think 2025 gave me that thing back, I hope in 2026 I get to create more and have fun !
Thanks to everyone here who commented & shared :) reposting on tumblr this last couple of years has been a blast ! I wish a happy 2026 to all !
Halloween's been over for 2 months ? don't care personnally. I made some brushes to help me painting intricate architectural details with minimum effort, and at first this painting was just to try them out but I got carried away... I didn't planned anything here, just pure experimentation, testing things out, having fun, intuitively building details in, I really enjoy working a bit mindlessly like that. would love to dive more into dark fantasy aesthetic, been drawing that a lot, I need to world build a bit more I think !
Can you spot the little witch looking over the city ?
yipeeee
I forgot one of my armored woman, reopened the file and finished the illus this week before going back to work LOL

stuff Im working on... very hard to define a style for characters... going from very loose to very controled... I should find a balance
for the 3 people in the back who thought I had painted a white Ged (forgot how this website can be sometimes...) here is a reminder on how light works. Yes I know Ged is brown skin, yes I have read the version with Leguin's introduction texts where she talks extensively about earthsea's charactershave been whitewashed, I have read her blog and how deceived she was with the movie adaptations. I understand how this topic on representation is important and sensitive but please learn to read an image before jumping to conclusions. will probably delete this in a week or 2
Im so happy to see people talk about earthsea or recognizing that it was fanart even before reading the caption !! these books are so precious to me and my friends, I really hope I get to share more art like this and create a little community around earthsea even !!
I read the books while I was in Japan last year, right after finishing Lords of The Rings (loved it too) and I think it made it clear in my head that fantasy was my favorite genre of media and I really want more of it out there ! i had a ton of images coming to my mind during the reading, but I couldn't draw at the time, but when I got home... I finally got to it ! so happy about the results ! A few more Ged and Lookfar art is coming !
hello!!! i adored your earthsea art the colours are so lush!! I was wondering, did you make any art of the tombs of atuan or the left hand of darkness (not earthsea but I love it so much!!)? No worries if not ofc just curious! Thank for sharing your work <3
hey there ! thank u so much !! I haven't yet for the tombs of atuan but Im planning to ! Im listening to the audiobook of the wizard of earthsea as I paint, to have more precise memories of the scenes (I read the saga last summer) and Tenar is my favorite character by far so I intend to draw her as much as possible !! I also have vivid ideas of what I imagine the temple and the labyrinth to look like... I have read the left hand but I think Im less drawn to sci fi aesthetic ..at least at the moment !
take care ( ˶˘ ³˘)♡
Obsessed by the Ursula Leguin's Earthsea saga at the moment.... Ged and his boat have been on my mind ⋆。゚🌊。
a few months passed inbetween these two illustrations and I can see my painting style has evolved a bit like it's sharper I feel Idk ?
for people who saw this and went "maybe I should read the books or pick it up again" YES YES YOU SHOULD ABSOLUTELY If you love fantasy, incredible mythologies, beautiful POETIC magic system, insane lore, characters to fall for again and again, and BOATS Please read the earthsea saga, it has change my art forever, I wish for more people to experience this joy !!

some plein air I did in Etretat during summer 2024, I was blessed with amazing weather and lights !!
Various studies of the last months !
I've been really focusing on getting an efficient painting method, and being more comfortable with realisitic lighting. My second goals are : mastering shape design, and overall finally being good with cityscapes/perspective/buildings which I have been avoiding for way too long ! Those are sometimes quick warmups sometimes 4 hours long, and Im learning a lot :) If you want to improve I really recommend getting into studies more with a clear goal in mind. I have been doing these along with my friends @lucocurtis & Edwige, who want to push their skills further as well !
I just love painting the sea, I wanna do just that until I find a new thing to obsess over
still love this sooo bad
