Charles Waller, “The Artisan”, 1981
The Artisan. Art by Jessica Lei Howard, from the Envoys & Artifacts Oracle.
Tale: Powdery pigments fill luminous saucers, primed to exhibit what a skilled hand will make from them. A shimmering abalone shell wrapped in the tendrils of an octopus sways about the deep abyss, compelled solely by her imagination. The basin’s contents are transformed into an outflow of her expression. Envoy - The Artisan: Creativity flows from the Artisan. She puts form to purpose using aesthetic for illustrious musings. She is the founder of culture and delight. Able to justify or denounce all emotion in a flash of color. She decorates curiosities in near impossible ways. She is the dreamer of dreams and must flow and move as the brush stroke falls. The Artisan inspires us because she understands the balance between control and spontaneity, and instinctively knows which to follow. Artifact - Pigment: The right application of any medium can easily become the most decorative spectacle to those curious enough to look upon it. A message is most impactful when it’s designed with purpose. Style, intention, and invention are the picture of individuality, and specificity ensures that such a picture is influential. Artfulness is figuring out the best way to show others what you want them to see. Path: Authenticity is the key to expression. That’s what makes us unique. We control what we do, make, say, and think. Through this we can intentionally fascinate others. Being authentic and original requires discovery, but you must also be mindful of how your distinct expression enchants the world around you. Where do you discover being? When is it time to flaunt? Consider what is the best vehicle for your personal expression.
The Artisan (after being very persistent and patient) was eventually able to win the heart of the widowed elite (in my lore he previously had another ooman mate but she died in battle)
Arti loves to drown Wolf in a lot of affection (which tbh his last mate was not so lovey dovey) and he’s still trying to get used to that but it’s clear he doesn’t mind it so far ❤️
First post in a long while! I've been doing other things but this project is on the mind.
Oh believe me when I say it's on my mind
Anyways, Mariner and Botanist have gotten redesigns and two other scugs have joined the group: The Artisan and The Painter! Putting them in a rough timeline goes like
Botanist -> Painter -> Artisan -> Mariner
General gist of each
Botanist: Self-reliance 101 of growing a garden on your back
Painter: Fuck sight those lizards don't need vision anyway
Artisan: Like Artificer but you can raise your scav rep yippee
Mariner: Don't you want to throw spears underwater but momentum just isn't letting you have your way? Not anymore :]
Anyways if *I* get my way then I'll have another post by next week or something. I revamped Song's lore by a lot and I want to share it
my rain world oc, the artisan !!! 😊
