Fey Nightlife

by

Silly title, I’m at a loss. This is a continuation of my #Fairy / little people #artistic binge (it’s out of my system, I think). This is what happens to your #phone when you are asleep after a #night on the town. It’s why your #lighter (if you’re into that) is drained, your battery dead, and you’ve dialed your last crush, but swear you didn’t, when you awake the next morning.

There’s actually two pictures. The darker one is the original, but it was impossible to see the cool stuff in the background, so I lit things up. #art #digital #new #modern

Midnight Outside the Tavern

by

(Continued from yesterday) They are nocturnal,” Magnus thought as he watched the #seagulls while absently blowing #smoke rings. He had stepped out, mainly to get away from Amalia and her obsession with Rollo. He was a good fighter and a capable adventuring companion, but the darkness of the grudge was growing against him. “What does she see in him?,” he wondered as a muffled cheer arose in the #tavern behind.

#digital #fantasy #art I did overnight while waiting for the Orajel and Motrin to kick in. It just finished rendering.

Midnight in the Tavern

by

Rollo hated when the elf made him pose for the soul-stealer gem. For some reason, she liked hanging out with ogres, he in particular. He just wanted to drink, the tavern was good for that, even though it was full of dwarves and humans. “Smile!,” she chided, snapping him out of his musings. Her hair smelled good, he thought, as he tried to pull the corners of his mouth upward.

You, for the Long Night

by

I was inspired to do this by a lyric (e.g. the title) in a Russian song by Miata I was listening to as I stared at a blank canvas. A #vampire (she has fangs but her mouth open made her look odd) has been spending the small hours enjoying #nature with her Rook before the #sunrise – #art #digital #painting #october #halloween #gothic

Alternate Timeline

by

Gratuitous #indigenouspeoplesday #art because no one will look at it and I’m a fan of #mesoamerica . When the Spanish first landed, they ostensibly came in peace. If only they had not subsequently lusted after gold and instead embraced their native compatriots, it would have been a better world. Sure 70m Aztecs would have still died of disease over the next 60 years after 1421 (salmonella, not syphilis as those who don’t know their history believe & probably not the Spaniards fault) but it would have been better today from a cultural standpoint. I would’ve liked to see what the Aztec empire grew into; such a shame. #art #digital #notpolitical
