New WIP! My sketch for my next tarot card design, “The Empress” featuring the beautiful Hindu goddess of fertility, love, beauty, family; as well as of divine strength and power! The tarot card of The Empress aligns with Goddess Parvati to a T, symbolizing Femininity, beauty, nature, nurturing, abundance. She also serves as a sister piece to “Kali” which is one of my favorite personal pieces! Stay tuned for progress or join my Patreon to see more behind the scenes, collaborate on my Tarot designs and concepts and first dibs on original paintings! https://www.patreon.com/LeilaniJoy 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 #theempress #parvati #goddessart #goddessparvati #hindugoddess #hinduart #empress #theempresstarot #tarotcarddesign #tarotcard #wipart #workinprogress #sketchoftheday #sketchbookart #leilanijoyart #kali #goddesspower #divinefeminine #shiva #shivaart #goddessstarot #tarotcardreadersofinstagram #tarotcardoftheday #sketchart #tarotartist #femalepower #femaleart #artiststofollow #myartstyle #empresstarotcard https://www.instagram.com/p/CTNptPZhLTp/?utm_medium=tumblr

Finally able to share this project! #WIP sketch of my commission from @JOANN This piece is super exciting and bigger than I’ve ever done before! This 50” painting will be part of massive art installation in JOANN’s new headquarters store in Torrance, CA. All art for the installation will be done by California artists and designers - each assigned a part of California’s history, fashion and culture to be inspired by. My prompt is “Kustom Kulture” - The term was was born out of the hot rod culture of Southern California of the 1960s. Growing up with a car enthusiast hot rod loving dad myself, I was exposed to car shows, rockabilly and kustom kulture from a young age. I constantly listened to these weird old vinyl records my Dad had called "Hot Rod Hootenanny” and “Surffink” (check them out of Spotify now!) and developed an obsession for the character of “Rat Fink” and the art of Ed “Big Daddy” Roth. So when JOANN came to me with this assignment completely out of the blue I couldn’t believe it! I have the opportunity to pay tribute to Ed “Big Daddy” Roth and combine his style with my own! I definitely have to work in my very own version of Rat Fink who I’m calling “Bunny Fink” Can you spot her? Stay tuned! This one is going to be a CHALLENGE and we have a long way to go! ******************** #kustomkulture #kustoms #hotrodart #edroth #edbigdaddyroth #ratfink #rockabillyart #kustomart #weirdart #juxtapoz #popsurrealism #leilanijoy #californiaart #californiaartists #tattooart #pinupart #pinup #1960sart #sketchoftheway #wipwednesday #hotrods #vondutch #surfart #vintageart #beautifulbizarre #monstergirl #tattoogirl #gothart #rockabilly https://www.instagram.com/p/CN8IIIkBlw9/?igshid=v6p5wqquurb3

SOLD. “Calliope” and “Calypso” have found their forever home! Huge and humble thank you to Ashton D. for inviting these girls into your home! These originals may have been claimed, but prints and more (stickers coming soon) are now available in my etsy shop! www.Etsy.com/shop/LeilaniJoyArt These paintings were created with @artistro.artsupplies acrylics 4x6 acrylic on hardboard. A video and review is available on my YouTube channel, MissLeilaniJoy. ******* In Greek mythology, #Calliope ( 'beautiful-voiced') is the Muse who presides over eloquence and epic poetry; so called from the ecstatic harmony of her voice. Hesiod and Ovid called her the "Chief of all Muses”. #Calypso is the goddess-nymph of the mythical island of Ogygia and a daughter of the Titan Atlas. She detained the hero Odysseus for many years in the course of his wanderings after the fall of Troy but was eventually commanded by Zeus to release him. ******* #BeautifulBizarre #GirlArt #PopSurrealism #Calypso #GoddessArt #SurrealArt #AnimeArt #pictureframes #ArtistsOfInstagram #BeautifulArt #FemaleArt #GirlsWhoDrawGirls #DisneyArtist #Juxtapoz #dreadlocks #PrettyGirlArt #greekmyth #Artiststofollow #greekmythology #theodyssey #nymph #artistro #originalpaintings #acrylicpainting #blackwomenart #wocart #whitedreads #blackisbeautiful #leilanijoy https://www.instagram.com/p/CND6fbEBQTS/?igshid=17oxao2k59368

Late post, but here's my #willowrosenberg double cosplay from #halloween2020 I'm pretty stoked on how they both came out! Willow was a huge girl crush and style icon for me in high school and it's definitely over due that I cosplayed her! Thanks to the always "reliable" and amazing @alysonhannigan for bringing Willow to life and thanks to @brianmatyas for these doppelgangin photos! ♥️♥️♥️ #buffythevampireslayer #leilanijoycosplay #borednow https://www.instagram.com/p/CHyXjeOBU12/?igshid=1ic2gc7ws2qw9

“The May Queen” inspired by #Midsommar 2019. Graphite, Ink and Watercolor. Original Available Now: www.Etsy.com/Shop/LeilaniJoyArt I know #Inktober has ended, but I had a few more horror movie gals I wanted to capture and this was one of them! "Midsommar" received mixed reviews, but personally I loved it and thought it was one of the most beautiful (and horrific) films I've ever seen. It stuck with me long after watching it and this incredible flower garment just screamed to be painted! Prints and stickers coming soon to my shop! xoxo #LeilaniJoy #art https://www.instagram.com/p/CHgYucRhOwe/?igshid=ukvutanwi172

“Under the Skin” Graphite, Ink and Acrylic on watercolor paper. SOLD (via Patreon First Dibs - Patreon.com/LeilaniJoy) Prints and more at www.Etsy.com/shop/LeilaniJoyArt . This piece is inspired by Scarlett Johansson's character in the 2013 horror/sci-fi film, "Under the Skin." and by #MabGravesDralloweenclub prompt, "Nightcrawler.” I love this weird, beautiful, creepy little film and I thought this time of year was a perfect time to pay tribute to it. *I actually finished this piece last week and was so unsatisfied with the final results I started it completely over! I guess it’s the perfectionist in me. I’m glad I did though because I’m much happier with the 2nd version!) A little time left of #Inktober #Drawlloween left - I think I’ll do another horror movie gal, but who!?! #undertheskin #undertheskinfilm #undertheskinmovie #ScarlettJohansson #ScarJo #MabGravesDralloweenclub2020 #nightcrawler #horrorart #horrormovies #scifiart #scifimovies #aliengirl #creepymovies #Drawlloween2020 #inktober2020 #inktoberday25 #inkdrawings #beautifulbizarre #drawingoftheday #fashionillustration #inkdrawing #surrealism #surrealart #weirdmovies #halloweenart #filmposter https://www.instagram.com/p/CGqEBechAUI/?igshid=1gdteszu9g295
