Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm Peppermint, a Finnish freelance variety artist looking for remote illustration and visdev work. Mostly I make mixed media art about fantasy, animals, my OCs and my favorite characters. www.peppermintbubble.com hello@peppermintbubble.com Ask me about commissions! #art

A stylized traditional mixed media illustration of a polar bear, divided into sections loosely inspired by art nouveau. The middle section is large and circular, and depicts the polar bear looking up at the night sky with visible green aurora. The rest of the sections above, below and around the circle depict heavily stylized space, sky and aquatic elements.

A digitally colored ink illustration of Queen Sectonia and Taranza from the Kirby series, drawn in fuchsia pink and lemon yellow on black. Sectonia is holding her staff with the pink gem and offering her left hand out slightly towards Taranza, who holds a heart in one of his hands. There's pink flowers and yellow sparkles as decoration.

A traditional mixed media illustration of a young athletic East-Asian woman with a long black ponytail. She's floating against a stylized painted space backdrop with a few planets, and she's wearing an oversized jacket and oversized boots inspired by astronaut costumes. She's also wearing a backpack and holding a sub sandwich.

Between the Shadows (2015) An old personal favorite... While I'm resting because drawing feels impossible right now I can't help but reminicence about my old ambitious works! #art #Pokemon

20 years ago my parents gifted me this copy of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) and an Xbox360 to play it on... I was so excited I broke the case as I tried to take the plastic wrapping off. My love for Sonic 06 will never be stopped! #art #SonicTheHedgehog

A photo of my open sketchbook with a traditional mixed media portrait of Princess Elise smiling and slasping her hands drawn on the right side page. It also features feathers and the phrase "Just smile!". My aforementioned childhood copy of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) for Xbox 360 with the broken case is on top of the left side page of the sketchbook, and I put my Sonic IDW art book and Shadow the Hedgehog plushies in the background of the photo.

I survived the Backrooms! There was no poster so I had to take a photo of (my brother's) popcorn instead. I had no idea Krista Kosonen would have a role in the film haha. Finland jumpscare! Film was really scary but really cool, I'm so glad I went to the cinema to watch it.

I've been busy so I forgot to post this last week, but here's a nice photo I took at the beach last week!

A photo of my Kaioshin "bath bomb" minifigurine photographed from the back as if he's watching the sky while he's standing atop a wooden bench at the beach. There's some trees on the left, some tufts of beach grass on the sand, some sea and islands in the horizon, and the sky is blue with many layers of different clouds, and a cool light effect on some of the clouds where the topside and edges are white and the bottom is dark.

Reposting this from my sketchbook from last year because I STILL haven't been able to draw Freeza's face this well again 😭 #art #DragonBall

A photo of my open sketchbook, with a somewhat cutesy mixed media drawing of Freeza from Dragon Ball clad in a detailed frilly princessy dress with separate puffy sleeves and a big bow with some jewels on it on his head, and "bracelets" on his tail. I placed my S.H. Figuarts Freeza figurine (who also has a bow on his head), some Promarkers, a purple Pixling doll and some jewelry around the sketchbook for decoration

Happy pride month to everyone! I don't feel like reposting the same rainbow art as the past few years so I'm bringing back this gif I made instead.

Käenpiikapariskunta (Jynx torquilla) pesii meidän linnunpöntössä! Odottamaton mutta mahtavaa. Aiemmin on vain sinitiaisia, talitiaisia ja kirjosieppoja ollut.

Our trees are blossoming! Too bad I don't like apples, but the flowers are nice

Another old mermaid piece from 2018 for the end of the month! I forget if there was any specific inspiration for this beyond me just enjoying using red and blue together. #art #MerMay

A traditional mixed media drawing of a slightly chubby mermaid who has white skin with red dots or freckles all over it, and a long blue eel like tail with a red fin on her back, running down the entirety of the tail. The mermaid is looking back over her shoulder and winking with a mischievous expression. Her hair and the background is blue watercolor

As a longtime One Piece reader I will defend it! That's Chopper's "human" form so I'm happy they went with a human actor with a costume and facial prosthetiics, it feels true to the source material to me!

A picture of Tony Tony Chopper from the One Piece Color Walk artbook series, featuring him in all his three transformation forms.

Set the System to Summer 🕶️🍦🪐 I think this came out super cute, even though I worked with a color palette that's unusual for me! So I added this art to my print store: www.inprnt.com/gallery/pepp... #art #Kirby #FrutigerAero

A stylized digitally colored ink illustration of Kirby and Susie inside of a cutesy, summery "desktop system" inspired by frutiger aero aesthetics. Kirby is wearing sunglasses and stepping out of a window titled "Dreaming", and Susie is sitting on a green planet and holding an ice cream cone above her hand. There are also decorative windows featuring some of Kirby's animal friends titled "Friends", "Ocean" and "Vacation", and some bubbles and cute icons to decorate empty space. The illustration is drawn in red, blue and green on a white background.

Peppermint Bubble@peppermintbubble· May 18

Can I just say that episode 85 is the standout episode of DBZ in our watchthrough so far! The detailed action animation is utterly delightful to watch, it has so much weight and impact. Gotta enjoy these episodes until Freeza's animated design gets ruined until DBZ: Broly fixes him for a moment!

Peppermint Bubble@peppermintbubble· May 13

Here's some OLD mermaid art from 2018. I really disliked this illustration for a while but now I've grown to appreciate it again. If nothing else it's cool I drew something of a real background and a slightly more challenging pose! #art #MerMay #traditionalart

A large traditional mixed media drawing of a black mermaid with yellow hair and a yellow scaly tail. She's posed in a happy, relaxed pose with her eyes closed and hands behind her head, and tail curved as if she's leaning back and holding her knees up. Behind and around her there are som sharp stylished rocks and lots of different kinds of green seaweed. There's also some yelow fish in the picture and the background is light green watercolor.

If you zoom in you can see my tiny Shin figurine standing atop this trunk of a tree that was over 100 years old before it was cut down because of storm damage. On today's nature walk I heard moor frogs, and saw a common snipe, common redshanks, Northern lapwings and the first wagtail of the season!

My "bathbomb" Kaioshin minifigure (from Dragon Ball Daima) standing atop a thick spruce tree trunk that has been cut down after being visibly damaged in a storm. There's younger spruce trees and other greenery in the background. The day is sunny.

He's posed in a flirty manner, but has his right arm casually posed with palm up and index finger pointed out with a large sparkle above it.

What the fuck BlueSky, why have some of my images I've uploaded become noticeably destaurated when I upload them here and others have not? I thought the issue was with my display but no! Last time I posted these octopuses here it became destaurated but these animals didn't? What the hell?

Reposting one of my an art pieces about flapjack octopuses with some flapjacks to see what happens to the colors.
