I first heard the name "Adia" in the song by Sarah McLachlan: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RRn... I thought it was a beautiful name and wanted to name a character that, and here we are! #ocsky #findingbalancecomic
No AI!!! Clip Studio Paint and a Wacom tablet I've had for yearsss that's still kicking! Also my love for comics and fantasy themes💗
Quote with your purple art 💜 Have an ArtFight piece I did last year! I love this character's color palette
Made a reference sheet for Finding Balance's Cancer for #mermay! Hoping to finish Pisces' and Scorpio's for the month as well! #referencesheet #findingbalancecomic
Going through old posts on my Tumblr because I want to revamp it and oh boy This was what one of my first comics about my Zodiac Sign characters looked like Needless to say I've come a long way and am super proud of how much progress I've made since *checks date* 2016
A good amount, for the comic especially. For example, here's what Sagittarius and Aquarius used to look like, versus now! #FindingBalanceComic
Finished and cleaned up this Idia sketch! Not bad for my first time drawing him imo 😊 #twistedwonderland #idiashroud
Sketch of Idia Shroud from Twisted Wonderland that I'm going to color later! #idiashroud #twistedwonderland #wip

Artists, quote with your faces! I'm pretty proud of how far I've come with faces in my art!
Aries and his brother Scorpio (not pictured, since he hasn't appeared in the comic yet) had a pretty rough childhood with an abusive parent. Luckily both of them are out of that situation as of the time period of the comic!
Making a proper reference sheet for Finding Balance's villain, Vexx, to introduce him in the next update! #wip #referencesheet
Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Austra, an artist, writer, and comic creator. I'm drawn to fantasy in particular; my current comic has a fantasy action theme with a celestial overtone. #OpenToWork, see my site below for details and examples of my art! ✨ australisarts.carrd.co ✨ tapas.io/series/Findi...
Hi, thank you for the share! I'm writing a comic called Finding Balance about a human who finds out she is soul-bound to a celestial being and tries to rediscover herself and her values throughout the story. tapas.io/series/Findi...
