Divine Ingenuity . 2024 . I couldn't pinpoint what it was about the name I chose for this piece until I couldn't take it any longer and googled it only to realize it's the name of that one event where u create ur own domains lol. Tbh I think such event also suits CR so I'll see it as my subconscious being aware of it.

. I've loved Cloud Retainer ever since we met her for that first time on Liyue's Archon quest, to finally have her as a playable character and her being such a compelling mother figure just makes my heart melt. I loved every second of this patch's quests that included her ♥

Scarring Passion 10.03.2024

Kaveh was an immediate favorite of mine when we learned about him in the game. It dawned on me pretty fast afterwards that the favoritism was stemming partly from feeling reflected in him, which is sweet and emotional but also a tough realization. Kaveh is an idealist and too empathetic for his own good, a creative soul and big heart whose life experiences have irredeemably affected his mental health. Will Stetson's Writing on the wall is an amazing approach to Kaveh's character, the song was on a loop multiple times while I drew this piece. It's hard to put into words just how much this character's existence means to me, since, despite of the blows life's thrown at him, he still continues to be his own form of soft. I feel like he makes me realize that I, too, have remained my own form of soft, but that the inherent guilt of not being the soft I think I should be has made it difficult to show up for myself sometimes and it derives into unhealthy coping mechanisms (although I'm not an alcoholic but gaming and oversleeping are their own form of worrisome escapism lmao). He reminds me of the passion for the craft and the world itself overpowerng the instinct of preserving oneself. Kaveh lacks boundaries because he doesn't respect himself over the benefit of others, and at least, thankfully, I've started to learn that lol. I think the character personality design team did a wondeful work with him. There's a lot of nuance in genshin characters, hoyoverse in general for that matter, and I truly appreciate that we get to enjoy these fictional character's lives and find the light they so beautifully keep in themselves, maybe to be able to find it in ourselves as well.

Ah man, too many things I'd say as well but I'd express myself better in Spanish and even then it would be a bunch of rambling because mind goes faster than hands lol

I really loved doing this artpiece. I've wanted to draw Kaveh for months and started two other drawings before this that I didnt really like and scrapped. I hope I draw him again in the furute 💖

Violent Softness . 2024 I owed Shenhe a fanart! I had started one a few months ago but i abandoned it bc i didnt really like how it was looking (also bc drawing genshin designs is excrutiatingly painful and my mind refused to do it lmao). I started this this week and decided to not render it too much so i wouldnt feel overwhelmed by it. Really really liked the end result :') Let me know if you'd like me to upload it to inprnt for prints! :)

A vow for eternity . 21.02.2024

I am aware of the multiple interpretations of the Persephone and Hades relationship and how most of them obviously reflect the culture of their time. Personally I can't help but feel a very loving nature emanating from them, a growth despise the mistakes that get brushed off as he can do that because he's, well, him. Personally I also think Lady Persephone can be way more severe than Lord Hades and she's definitely ✨her✨, so the multiplicity of her story is in the end a vindication for female empowerment. I am by no means claiming my interpretation as truth and everyone will have different feelings about them, but yea every time I think of them I just feel love.

I had this drawing started for ages and honestly had forgotten to finish it. I want to draw them more so I'm just gonna leave this one as is and revisit my interpretation on them when I get the time again. 💖

14.04.2024 Serenity Flora was my favorite Winx and felt the need of drawing her a few days ago so here's the result. I liked the one with the blur and color for an old-ish tv look but I also like the effect-less one too much to not publish it so lol don't know if I'll do the other Wwinx girlies, maybe Stella, and potentially one of the Trix, we'll see

The Fool One of this year's "goals" is to allow myself to be messy again. Back when I'd work with acrylics and the like, my "style" was somewhat messy and intuitive and that was something I lost on my road of going digital. I also realized that for years it's been near impossible for me to post sketches/unfinished art. Like yes WIPs, but I never leave them at that. And so I wanna change that this year, to be able to take off this self imposed straight jacket. And Vash is my muse for those things and also he embodies the Major Arcana The Fool so well it felt fitting to do this first test with him ♥ I'm thinking mixing my interest (Tarot) with characters would be very fun! And I'd love to take commissions on it, do let me know if it's something you'd like :)

[fernandamaya]

Of Hopes and Dreams - 2023 This is the third and so far my fav fanart I've done of the bbygirl comfort character that is Vash. I truly love him so much that I finally gave in on doing some occasional fanart and thanks to him I feel more comfortable with drawing characters that differ from my personal style to the point of reaching some other ways of working around my drawings and implementing them (thus mutating my style and i love that for me lol) Truly so thankful that this character exists, I love him and he deserves peace and happiness and only fluffy and funny things :') Available as print on my store :) (But also if you wanna directly support u can paypal me for the high res file ♥ )

It'll be fine . 4.03.2024 Nanami Kento was an instant favorite when I first saw Jjk S1 and then going thru the manga and S2. Not only because of him being a cute looking fictional man lol but also because of what he represents and his development through the story. I'm glad we all really love him too bc i love coming across other fanarts. Never enough Nanamin. Him and Choso are my favs, so I might draw Choso later on, but we'll see. AND Maki. But that one will have to wait till her "glow up" gets animated lol EDIT: forgot to say i added some beauty marks because i just feel like he'd have them and they look pretty on him okbye I'm really happy with this drawing, I hope Nanami is happy too ✨🥺. Gege makes some….interesting….creative….decisions….. gegewhenicatchugege Anyway hope you like it 💖😊

Delicate Sagacity . 2024

2024 might be the year for me to do fanart more constantly.... (laughing at myself). Ruan Mei from Honkai Star Rail bc Hoyoverse's got me on a chokehold and I use genshin and hsr to escape from reality, as one does amirite. I have a sketch for Yae (genshin) ready, but will probably do some other drawings before that one. I'm liking the "portrait with scenery" vibe from my past few pieces (fanart and original), might turn it into a full on series we'll see Should I upload this as a print? Also pls commission me lol :')

[fernandamaya]

A friend commissioned me some pieces of her babies and this is the first one out of 4 so you'll see more mermaid cats and one dog in the following months lol This is a fun little whimsical thing to do, thank you Isa for this opportunity yay <3

[fernandamaya]

Unyielding courage - The Sun Thank you Biku (and Aaron!) for this commission. It was originally a fortune card one but we agreed on a different approach because I wanted to draw Diluc like this lol, gave him a beard bc i think it suits him. I might draw him again it was fun to do this

[fernandamaya]

Naiad 2024.03.22 I had this one as a wip for MONTHS so there's a disconnection in stylization with how I currently do/explore my art. I've never been one to fully hold on to a definitive style because I get bored and like to try stuff so lmao It's not any of the particular naiads because I really didn't think much of it at the time, but now I might actually want to :') too many ideas too little energy/time I really liked how it turned out (though I'm sure i couldve detailed more but got tired) and how I do continue to work with the golden texture that HAS been present in most of my digital pieces. Girl said she'd make that ps stamp and then never dropped it lol
