Return the Wolf

Vector illustration with outlines (new terrain for me!) showing a bird's eye view of a rural landscape with lots of forest that forms the head of a wolf (the ears are mountains, the eyes and nose are lakes etc). It's night with a moon, no cars but public transport (train and bus). Around it is written: „Return the wolf, let nature heal.“

This illustration is inspired by a #documentation on the benefits of returning #wolves to #Scotland, they could hold the deer (and sheep!?) population in check so natural forests could regrow! Just imagine the #highlands a huge forest!

Check out my portfolio for detail images and a process video.

Wolf Witch – Process Video

I love watching other artist’s #process videos and I finally managed to do something similar for „Wolf Witch“, that I posted last week!

It’s just a video (made in #Blender because I know how 😹) of the different versions I saved while working on it.

Do you enjoy watching videos like this? Anything you’d change?

Wolf Witch 🐺❄️

Illustration of a wintery landscape with pink clouds, a full moon, a mountain and a forest in the background. In the foreground amidst birch trees is a brown-skinned person, seemingly a child with earrings next to a giant white wolf. They're cradling a ice crystal familiar that has a concentration of snowflakes around it.

Detail view of the illustration, focussing on the character, wolf and ice crystal familiar.

The Wolf Witch’s ice crystal familiar brings the snow ❄️

Hello Fediverse! ^__^ Here’s my first finished work in 2025. Struggled a lot with colours in the process but (as always ^__^) I’m happy with how it turned out in the end.

3D-Lofi-Girl WIP

WIP of a cellshaded 3d-scene homage of the famous lo-fo girl illustration: a person is studying in a cosy room at night.

Hello Fedifriends! 😺

I’m testing non-realistic, more painterly shading in #Blender (= #cellshading, thanks Kevendram for the tutorials), decided to do homage on #lofigirl.

I’m not really happy with it, especially the lighting / shadow are a mess.

What do you think? Should I continue or try a more normal approach to shading / lighting?

Return the Wolf WIP

Vector illustration of a European landscape with a river, forests, a village, a stone circle, sheep, a lake etc. There's a howling wolf in the centre of the picture and three lakes form kind of a nose and two eyes in the landscape.

Hello ^__^ here’s a detail of a piece I’m working on. Just like with another one I’m finishing atm, I’m struggling with colours a lot. This one is kind of an experiment with doing outlines on a vector illustration, not sure if I like it but it’s a new thing!

UtopiaStill @38C3

Screenshot of Utopia Still, showing a hijabi skater frozen in time as they jump over a cat running across the street.

Here’s one my favourite moments from my 3d diorama „Utopia Still“ that was exhibited along with so many other cool projects at #38C3:

It was my first time at the congress and it was such a blast! Thanks to @callforstories(at)chaos.social and all the artists 🥰

Check out the entry for Utopia Still in my portfolio for more information, pictures and videos of the project.

Wild Fired Art Market was really good!

Photo of a table with a white tablecloth inside a shop. There are lots of my stickers, postcards and prints on the table. Beside the table stands a tiny dog in a raincoat.

Me sitting behind the table (wearing a mask) while a listening to a person in front of the table talking and gesturing.

Had a really nice time last weekend at the winter market from Wild Fired Pottery!

Thanks so much to Maya, Stephen and the rest of the team as well as my fellow artisans and the visitors who braved the rather terrible Scottish weather! ^__^

Fedicard

An illustration of a Magic – The Gathering style trading card showing an island at night saying „Temporary Respite > Birch Cove – Fantastic Landscape: It can be a cruel world out there, so stay a while, look at some pretty art, recharge and then go on changing it for the better.“ The card is surrounded by flowers and grass, a butterfly, a ladybug, a cup of coffee, drawing utensils as well as a small plate with nuts, chocolate and raspberries on it.

Hi! Remember #FediCard? I decided to make an illustration around one, way after it was cool and then kinda lost steam … But since it’s theme seems to only getting more relevant I decided to post it anyway in all it’s unfinished glory ^__^

I’ve long struggled with my art not being deep or political enough and while I do see a worth in giving people the chance of not thinking about terrible events for a second it still feels not enough …
