This is Val Dellas

Hey there! Bonjour à tous! My name is Val! I am a student in Montreal, an apprentice traveller and a part-time artist. I welcome you to stroll by my Deviantart (http://valdellas.deviantart.com/) or by my Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/valdellas/) and... have a really great day (or night)!

Lis and her cat, Kit. Lis found Kit on the street, tiny and frail amongst its dead brothers and sisters. The mother must have gotten hit by a car. It helped Lis get a lot better, to have a living being to take care of.  As of Seb, he never really liked animals, but he never would have dared to take Kit away from Lis. The fact Kit took a liking to sleeping in Seb's shirt pocket also helped a bit in the adoption process. **I'm not certain yet this is the official coloring of Kit.

She still has no name (I'm still hesitating between Charlene, Julia "Jules", Clair...... and many more in fact), but she has a style of her own! Her backstory is also building itself. Girl is my OC.

Colored version of my Halloween Inktober! They're my ocs: Elisabeth Maisel and Sebastian Ross.

Flowers! Wait, what? Lis gets a gigantic flower bouquet (which she turns out to be allergic to) from probably Micah. Why, you ask? Micah knows Lis finds these romantic outbursts ridiculous and rather embarassing (although she is not one to be embarassed). This being said, Micah loves to tease her and to make her mask (the bored and cocky mask) crack.  He still apologizes in the end because he didn't expect or want her to be "sick" because of him (he's a marshmallow).  Lis is my OC.

Lis too has traveled! Or at least will. She mostly goes solo in adenture-prone destinations. This being said, the top image is in Costa Rica and the bottom one is in Thailand.

Lis is my OC.

Still that OC with no name with some makeup variation.

I would say: classy night, everyday, going out.

"Yo, Romeo!" Lis at her window, laughing at Micah's cheesiness. Lis is my OC.,

Colored travel outfits for new OC girl!

December 2 (sort-of) : Book under mistletoe. #jinglemybooks challenge And of course, she's reading Harry Potter!

[valdellas]

French girl who moved to Montreal, then Toronto. She travels a lot, hence the oriental-style outfits. However, she sticks to countries out of Europe, considering she has seen a lot of it as a child and some bad memories are associated to it. These outfits were worn in Bali, Morocco and India, but she also traveled (or will travel) to Philippines, Japan, Malaysia, Guatemala, Costa Rica… She is not very close to her parents who consider her a shame to the family. Her older sister also treats her like plague, but her older brother, although it doesn’t always show, has great affection for her.

She popped in my mind during a class and I have been drawing her since then. Her name is not determined yet and her face design is not so consistent, but her personality is slowly growing! She’ll be part of my The Fight is All We Know world.

Well…..! I guess the improvement is obvious! 2 years and a bit of practice! Still not perfect, but getting there!

“Lis: I believe it is common knowledge that when you have hair like that, you have to share it! Seb: I wouldn’t let you borrow my hair. Lis: I don’t want your hair, Seb!”

Hiss hiss, motherf**. If a glare could kill, Lis would be in great danger right now! This is James with Lis (both my OCs). James is the guitarist from a rather famous underground band. (Seb is a fan.) He usually sings (screams) as well, but right now, he’s unable to use his tongue. Why, you ask? Because he had the brilliant idea to cut it in the middle. It may look epic eventually, but for the moment, he has to rely on his boyfriend, Damien, to come rescue him because he can’t even articulate enough to tell Lis to leave his precious hair alone.

“-Aw, Grumpy grandpa had a rough day? -Yeah. And I’m grumpy baby. -Alright, Babe. ”

Seb and Lis my OCs.

I forgot the beauty mark on Seb’s cheek..!

Day and night.

I used an older drawing of Lis my OC to work on some fancy lighting (the day lighting). The arm is ugly at its best, but I like the light on her face! :)

Colored version of Inktober 13th.

Lis and her best friend (and roomie), Sebastian. Wild and young and free. And quite drunk as well. Seb was showing Lis how it feels to be tall and he accidently knocked her head against the top of a doorframe. Their advanced state of drunkness turned it into a running gag. As of the screwed knee, she probably fell or something. More about Seb: He is two or three years older than Lis. He is a tattoo artist. He is very protective of Lis. He must be about 6'3 tall. His family background is rather tragic. He has an older sister named Viola. Ask away if you want more details! Lis and Seb are mine OCs!

Sebastian (my OC).

Inktober 11 (slowly catching up!).

He has two dogs he loves a lot. The eldest is the golden retriever (right), who is moody and kind of an old snob. He likes calm evenings watching TV on the couch and dislikes the youngest’s joie de vivre. I was thinking of naming him Samwell. Dae’s parents find Sam too moody to enjoy it’s company so Dae takes care of him.  The youngest dog (left) is a pitt that Dae’s dad got from a shelter. His father went out of his way to get a permit for the pit because they are (technically) illegal where they live. Dae suspects his paternal was trying to man him up by by giving him a big, bulky pitbull. Turns out that this one is a total goofball nobody could be scared of. His name is either Lenny or Scoobert.

Dae (and his dogs, I guess) are OCs of mine.

“- Um, Micah… I’m not sure my shirt likes this. - Don’t you like living dangerously?”

Lis and her boyfriend (although they don’t exactly qualify themselves as such), Micah. They meet at a party and then keep crossing paths.

Both are my OCS.
