But it's not though, is it? Love is an antidote. A comfort. A heal. Lies are poison. #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #viera #goodbye #lessonslearned

Four panels of a short response to my previous illustration of "Love is a Sweet Poison".

The top panel shows a pink and white bunny sitting alert and scrunched, the shadow of a snarling beast along the back of the wall, its fangs primed ominously towards the bun.

A small insert panel of two hands scooping up the pink and white bunny.

The second panel is Lycelle, a Viera, holding the bunny close to her chest on her shoulder, comforting it with one hand and nuzzling her cheek to its head.

The third panel shows Lycelle and her beloved standing face to face. She still holds the bunny, it looks anxious, like it is trying to crawl away over her shoulder. Her beloved smirks, and is holding out a heart shape vial, full of a powerful seductive liquid. A necklace swings from the vial, the same necklace Lycelle wears in the previous illustration. (A little homage to Bioshock, honestly.) Her beloved gestures towards the vial confidently, and Lycelle reaches for it, willingly.

Throughout the page is a small poem in response to the previous illustration:

"But it's not though, is it?

Love is an antidote.
A comfort.
A heal.

Lies

are poison."

Incredible drawing session with belly dancer Super Nova Haze! 💖 #lifedrawing #figuredrawing #illustration #pinup #bellydancing

A collage of colorful sketches from a life drawing session with model Lacey, Super Nova Haze, in which she gave a variety of dynamic sitting and standing poses. She wore fun flowy and jangly costume pieces used in her routines, and even did a few poses with one of her swords, including balancing it on her head!! Great model and fun session!

Nophica x Proud Plant Parent 🌱 #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #nophica #littleleannan

An illustration of Nophica, the Matron Goddess from Final Fantasy XIV, wearing an outfit inspired by a collage made by Lindsey Miles. She wears a loose green sweater hanging off one shoulder, a light green lacy cami underneath, flowy brown pants that have an open slit at the knee, and strappy brown sandals. She holds a bushel of Lavender in one hand and gestures towards the floating pink seed pod, Little Leannan, next to her. Her jewelry is designed after the accents from her in game costume, and she has white flowers in her hair instead of feathers.

It's my nameday, and if I've calculated the moons correctly it's Lycelle's nameday too! Cheers to us, babygirl! #finalfantasyxiv #ff14art #ffxivart #viera #illustration

A colorful rainbow explosion of a cute watercolor and digital scribble of my beloved Viera from The critically acclaimed mmorpg Final Fantasy XIV! She's a joyful chibi version of herself, not to be mistaken for her popoto bun persona. She wears a rainbow party dress and is surrounded by Starbuns, hearts and stars!

✨ Shimmering Scars ✨ #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #illustration #muse

An illustration of Lycelle, inspired by the new Muse song "Shimmering Scars". Lycelle, a Viera, looks at the you with pain in her eyes, her hands encompass an anatomical representation of a heart, covered in scars, bleeding sparkles and stardust into the void of Ultima Thule.

"Was I not enough?
Was I not enough?
What still remains?
I don't wanna break
Was I not enough?
Was I not enough?
I can't start again"

A fun, dynamic drawing session last night! 🍑 #lifedrawing #figuredrawing #illustration #art #pinup

A colorful gesture sketch of Cyberp3t from a life drawing session. A feminine form from behind with "sunset" colors/lighting.

A montage of colorful gesture sketches ranging from 3 minutes, 5 minutes, and 15 minutes. Cyberp3t gave us many fantastic poses where they held their arms and legs in dynamic positions, always with a fun and sultry attitude on their face!

Just a little Midsommar appreciation scribble. 🌻 Happy Summer Solstice! ☀️ #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #viera #midsommar #solstice

A colorful illustration based off of a screenshot from the movie Midsommar, depicting Lycelle covered in summer flowers and wearing a flower crown. She looks a bit devious at the camera with a smirk on her face. The final scene of Midsommar is when Dani finallay gets to be released from her toxic relationship with her cheating, gaslighting boyfriend and I thought that was an apt parallel here.

"Love is a sweet poison," he said. 💔 #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #viera #goodbye

An illustration of Lycelle, a Viera, wearing Neo Ish, holding a vial with a heart shaped base, filled with a red tincture. She wears a necklace with the emblem of a heart being stabbed by a dagger, an homage to "Possession."

Behind her is her beloved, he has one hand on her torso pulling her close, his other clutching her wrist that holds the vial. Lycelle looks wistfully at the tincture, while her lover looks darkly straight on to the viewer.

A vintage scroll design and Art Nouveau style flowers surround them, with the words "Love is a sweet poison" written in Eorzean font.

Poem by Kristina Mahr

Sarah Barrie Fenton@zealousceles· May 22

"Forever" Inspired by a poem by Kristina Mahr. ❤️‍🩹 #finalfantasyxiv #ffxivart #ff14art #viera #ghosts

Three sequential illustrations on the page vertically giving a small moment of tranquility and melancholy. In the first panel Lycelle leans against a wall, looking down into her cup of mezcal. She wears a casual outfit thrown together of a button up shirt, Turali trader culottes, and pink fluffy slippers. A shard of Crystal hangs low around her neck.The Ancient spectre of Endymion approaches from behind her, walking to her side, he looks out at the view.

In the second panel, Lycelle looks up from her cup and drops her hands a bit, her eyes gaze outward, remorse furrows her brow. Endymion looks towards her, curiosity or concern, his expression unknown, hidden by his mask.

In the last panel we see the pair from behind and the glorious view of Tuliyolalls coastline from Lycelles cabin. The weather fits Lycelles mood. Endymion reaches a hand towards the small of her back, tho she won't be able to feel it.

Through the panels is scattered a poem in Eorzean script, written by Kristina Mahr.

"The only thing I know
With any certainty
Is that I cannot possibly
Love you this much
Forever.

But oh,
I could have."
