[Image Description: A set of digital drawings of a personification of Spring. She has floor length curly brown hair with flowers and leaves in it. She has feathers on her ear. In the largest drawing, she wears a flowing pink and blue half skirt over green tights, with a pink top lined with branches and is barefoot. She has a blue line of fabric that flows from her hand and around her neck loosely. She skips, the ground under her feet green and growing flowers, with patches of melting snow. In the smaller drawings labeled "Flowers in hair represent feelings", she is drawn with two emotions: Cheer, wearing yellow flowers and a pink tulip in her hair, and sadness, with a pink flower and white bell flowers. In the bottom right drawing she is screaming, wearing a similar floral dress, with dark clouds and lightning above her.]

Ah capricious spring... You're always one of my favorites.

[Image Description: 2 artworks of a cave, mirrored in each drawing, with a riverside entry and water above it, highlighted by a moon glow. In the first image, a greek columned gate made of ivory tusks opens to a starry night with a dark tree and poppies in the background. A black winged creature (oneiros) wearing greek armor leans out of the gate, birdlike talons clawing on the edge. Above flies another, which wears a blue dress. The second image is a gate made of horn, with a gentler looking oneiros, wearing a wreathe of poppies, a red tunic, and holds a poppy in his hand. Another oneiros flies overhead, mirror to the first image. End ID]

"For two are the gates of shadowy dreams, and one is fashioned of horn and one of ivory" -The Odyssey

The Land of Dreams is a part of the outskirts of the Underworld. The Gates of Dreams are a where creatures of dreams, oneiros, or children of Nyx or Hypnos, such as Morpheus exit into the mortal realm. The gate of Horn is where Prophetic or True dreams come from, and the gate of Ivory is where False dreams exit.

[Image Description: A set of digital drawings of a personification of Summer. She has blond hair in an undercut and ponytail. A drawing of her hair down has it shoulder-length and fire-like. She has a strong build, and long elf ears with a red curled tip. She has ladybug wings, which in two drawings are showing the opened poses from the back and front. She wears blue suspenders that wrap around her back to the top of her wings. In these drawings she wears a gold collared shirt with gardening gloves, and light brown shorts. In the largest drawing, she wears a single piece blue swimsuit, dipping her toe in some water, which steams and boils.]

Summer! The one who boils me alive lol

[Image Description: A digital drawing of a winged character representing Pollution. They have canary wings, blackened with soot at the tips. They are light skinned with doll-like joints in black. Their hair is long, made of oil slick that fades into smog. They wear a holo plastic sleeveless shirt and pants with black splatter boots. Around their waist is a rusty colored net. In the main drawing, they have an almost serene expression, gesturing gently. On a side bust drawing, they have blackened eyes and a eerie smile that cracks all the way across their face. Above this is a wing covered in oil, the top portion is blackened bone. End ID]

Made a new character whoops

[Image Description: A set of digital drawings of an original version of Jack Frost. He had pale skin and white fox-ears and white hair. His clothing is all blues with brown pants. Ice and frost creeps in the edges of his clothes. In variations of his hair, one is fluffy, labeled "snow soft", one sharp and short labeled "ice mischief" and a third is "human" with short curly blond hair and warmer skintone. There's a full body drawing of him ice skating, creating the ice on the water with his skate. Beside this drawing, he's upside down, grinning with his hand to his lips, thinking.]

Summer is closing in, time to start romanticizing Winter again

[Image Description: 2 paintings and a reference photo of a chocolate lab mix with white chest markings. He sits in the grass, looking toward the camera with one paw curled up. The first painting is more accurate to the photo, with lighter colors, and flowers added to the grass. The second painting is flipped the opposite direction, in a more painterly and cartoonish style with trees in the background. End ID]

I painted my sister's dog Kirby once in maybe 2018 and once in 2023! I figured I'd share the different styles lol

[Image Description: A colored drawing of a feminine Knight, with a Moon shield and glowing sword. The knight is light skinned, with black hair in a braid, with glowing white moon phases on their cheeks and blue eyes. They have a scarf with flowing ends that attach to their wrists. Hiding behind them is a young black girl with cloudy white hair, and a ballroom dress with patterns of the earth. End ID]

Something something that one thing about how the Moon protects the Earth

[Image Description: A colored drawing of the Sagittarius Constellation with a Centaur holding a bow and arrow shaped from it. The milky way is behind it in blues and greens. End ID]

The Archer! Which has SO many ways to arrange the lines I just... went with what I thought fit the shape of a centaur and a bow lol

[Image Description: A black and white drawing of a miniture sketched girl with long black hair about as tall as the ink jar next to her. She is upside down, using her hair as an ink brush, making a drawing of a loopy heart on a paper. End ID]

my hair gets painted often enough, if I was paint brush sized I'd try this at least once.

[Image Description: A colored drawing of the Scorpio Constellation with a red scorpion shaped from it. The milky way is behind it in purples and golds. End ID]

It is done (enough)!

I would hype it up more but this is really really simple. It randomly generates a set of symbols, colors, and a word, and then the expected thing to do with those is you draw some sort of character based off the result you get. So it's just an art challenge toy thingy.

There are also some practical features like you can lock parts of the result in place to rerandomize the rest, or hide parts of the generation you don't care about (like if you want to pick your own colors or hate the words being there)

You can try it out over on itch.io!

It should run in browser, but there's also a downloadable version for Windows if you want to use it offline. (No mac/linux versions for now, because I don't have appropriate computers to test those on and I...don't want to deal with mac's developer accounts or whatever their problem is...)

Here's something I made from one of the results I got for the sake of example:

(It's a bit of a rushed drawing sorry I just wanted to get the actual generator out there)

I hope everyone has fun with it :]

Ohh, so I was looking at my storage and found these! I originally shared them on twitter before yeeting the platform. Anyway, feel free to use! Art memes for your oc :D

Webtoon's new age rating standards say that a comic can't be rated All Ages if it includes "Fully censored profanity (e.g., #$%^) in a few episodes". Literally more restrictive than 1950s newspaper funnies!

Artists are so afraid to make human body hair references, but since I'm not a bitch, do you want a direction map? Like the ones furries make for animal fur directions, but for humans.

[Image Description: A colored digital drawing of a sailor on the deck of a ghostly wrecked ship, one foot on the helm's wheel. He holds a golden trident with seaweed and barnacles, a swirl of water at his feet at the edge of the trident. He is taking off goggles, a ghostly fog overlayed on his face with a glowing evil grin. The ocean behind him is choppy and stormy. End ID]
