I've been participating in an art tournamente, the 5th Bjournament, in Björn Hurri's art server on Discord! This was my first entry and I luckily won the round because my opponent didn't show up! a win is a win. I'd love to speak more about this tournament and how it is helping me grow as an artist
Trying out acrylics and deciding I wanted to be ✨expressive✨ or just a bit fed up and went with ehat I felt for #traditionalart #acrylicpaint #sketchbook #livepainting
I’m honestly super happy that this piece gained some traction! I’ve spent the last months reconnecting with what I really want to paint, horses are my fav animal. So here is the underpainting and some color studies I did #wip #colorstudy #fantasyart #illustration
My last painting! A tribute to the TCG Bella Sara, one of the first I started collecting. Also discovered I really love painting horses #pegasus #fantasyart #bellasara #tcgart #horseart #yearofthehorse
2025 is definitely the year where this statement has started to change, where I look at my art and think “you know what? This is cool”. What can I say, baby steps! I have no idea if any of these pieces will bring me closer to any of my goals, I guess 2026 will give me an answer. #tarotart
I owe it to myself to make an art wrap up of this year, with a selection of things I have painted. For a long time, I painted and, in the end would think “I would never hang this on a wall”. #tcgart #fantasyillustration #cardart #artistwrapup #tarotillustration #esotericart
This illustration that I’m working on is such a hard piece, but I love how it’s coming out! I had to share a snippet of the parts I have actually finished! #fantasyillutration #fairies #fantasyart

I spend a lot of time doodling, specially when I am in the office with nothing to do ~ First sketch was from a live model, the second a random (handsome) goblin, third my #Rook from #Veilguard #traditionalart #sketches #livedrawing
3) so I decided to imagine how the dinner where they declare their intention to marry would go. I won’t post the pictures, but I had a blast shooting references with my friends. On why I did the drawing traditionally: I simply draw better with a pencil!
2) there are many stories about the disappearance of gnomes, all for different reasons. One that really struck me was about this couple, a human girl and a gnome man. The two were in love, but her family strictly forbid her to be with him. So the two eloped and disappeared, with all the other gnomes
1) Hello everyone! I wanna talk a bit about the story and process for this piece. “Love wins” is my pass at a story from Italian folklore on why gnomes disappeared. #fantasyart #fantasyillustration #folklore #gnomes
