Hel, ruler of the land of the dead (Niflheim, also sometimes called Helheim), where she rules over the souls who did not die in battle. Although she is commonly referred to as a goddess of the dead in modern texts, Hel was more giantess then goddess, being one of the three children of Loki and the giant Angrboda.
Hel’s relatively unthreatening nature is likely why she was not punished as harshly as her family members. While her fath...

What you see is beautiful and terrible. You can feel a thick wave of faerie magic blanketing you, and you can no longer seem to hold onto a solid thought.
The last thing you remember is the soft sound of your bow hitting the mossy forest floor.

Wispy pastels and white magic spells....
Here is the little artwork I did for the hair tutorial commissioned by Clip Studio Paint. Since the main focus was just to demonstrate how I paint hair in the tutorial, the actual illustration is kinda simple but I still really like it. Light blue, purple and pink are always such nice color combos!
Here is a link to the tutorial. &nb...

Clip Studio Paint was kind enough to sponsor a new hair tutorial! So here is sneaky early access to a somewhat shortened version of the hair tutorials that are here on patreon!
I hope it is helpful for you guys!
Since this is early access, please wait to share until it is released publicly.
If you want to watch the full length extended hair tutorials, you can find them in the rewards index! :D

Through thick and thin, magical companions till the end.
I really love the idea of witches working with animal familiars to have help or guidance when performing especially larger magic. Whether they be spirits or demons taking animal form or the animal themselves are just magical by nature, I think It is also is really comforting to have an animal companion who will always be there unconditionally for the witch when she is on a...

Villagers dare not venture too far into the mörkwood. The deeper one ventures, the thicker the mists are with magic and the closer the darkness presses into the senses. Mortals lost in these woods are not searched for. They are assumed lost, stolen by the faerie folk, never to return.
You know all of this, and y...

Deep in the tangled wilds, where only nature and magic calls home, sits a small glen, strangely clear of the snarled bushes and branches of the surrounding forest. Within the center of that glen, grows an old twisted Juniper tree, dotted with vines and moonflowers. It doesn't take one practiced in the mystical arts to recognize that this is no ordinary tree and no ordinary place.
Sure enough, if you were to find yourself resting...

I hope a little lineart progress post is alright with you folks! I know I usually just post everything all at once when the artwork is done but sometimes I like the lineart so much that I feel it should have it's own post. <3
Transparent lineart is attached to download at the bottom of this post if you want to try coloring her.

Hi hi everyone! I hope your 2022 is going well so far!
I have been curious to hear from you what you are interested in seeing more of this year!
Last year I’m so excited I was able to start doing more tutorials and articles for you here on Patreon and I feel like this page has been able to evolve from that. I also started creating the goddess series and have been so grateful that you guys have been so supportive of it.
So this year I am excited and curious t...

Goddess of love and fertility, and she is associated with lust, beauty, sorcery, and war. A member of the Vanir tribe of deities, Frejya shared her people’s penchant for the magical arts of divination.
Freya was gentler and more agreeable than the other Norse deities. Where Thor accomplished his goals through aggression and Odin and Loki resorted to trickery, Frejya a...

Greeting the new year with a fun painting of Mist! I have been into trying to make the atmosphere look sort of underwater by adding the background color to the edges of the character and blurring a bit of the character's edges.
Here is the piece I started on stream last Saturday! It was super fun hanging out with you guys! I hope you like her!

“Freyja is most gently born (together with Frigg): she is wedded to the man named Ódr… [who] went away on long journeys, and Freyja weeps for him, and her tears are red gold. Freyja has many names, and this is the cause thereof: that she gave herself sundry names, when she went out among unknown peoples seeking Ódr: she is called Mardöll and Hörn, Gefn, Sýr.”

Don't play with dark magic folks, it might make you cry and your will mascara run...
Perhaps this young witch was hurt by a deep betrayal and has resorted to the dark arts to take her revenge.
Honestly this piece started out as just something a little random and for fun. It is one of those artworks that I really had no idea where it was going and I just kind of followed along and tried to be flexible with whatever ideas came to mind in the moment.
