The Six Spears of Liyue 
This title is a direct translation from the characters in the “seal” on the upper right hand corner, “璃月六枪”.  I picked Seal Script font just to match the signs in Liyue Harbor.  However while what I put here are the actual Chinese characters, most characters in game are made up or artistic renderings of real characters.
Since Tumblr always kindly offers its resizing services whether I like it or not, I’ve also included a bunch of zooms of the characters below the actual image.  I will be posting a slightly bigger version on my Deviantart later. (Edit:  it’s posted now, link to my Deviantart in my bio)
This one took me a whole year to complete......for reasons.  In the past year I moved across the country and was busy with work, but also since the painting was originally just Zhongli, Xiangling, Hutao, and Xiao, I had to add Shenhe and Yunjin in after February of this year. :P  Also it is the biggest and most complex painting I have ever done.  Anyways, hope y’all like it. :)
Now moving on to smaller paintings lol...…I missed painting those.

Finally, the painting of our beloved Geo archon I've been promising for a long time is done. This is the most detailed digital painting I have ever done, sitting at 36 layers across 2 different programs.
I started this painting in the beginning of December 2020, but due to many unfortunate events and the pandemic (actually my current job is a miniscule part of the greater effort towards ending the pandemic, so I've been quite busy since 2021 started), I was forced to abandon the painting until end of January, when I gradually started to work on it again. During these months, I went through some of the darkest moments of my life, and I am not exaggerating when I say, Genshin did help me through a lot of it. I've decided to make this painting my way of saying thanks to the devs and artists who created the game, and the community as a whole. So please enjoy!

Thanks to Zhongli, I'm finally motivated to practice drawing some male figures lol. I still need a lot of practice though.
Also the design here is based on Zhongli's statue
Also also yes I am painting Zhongli, hopefully I will finish it soon.

2020 Inktober Day #5: Blade
......and Soul! So here it is, a recreation of my character in BnS standing on a rooftop, looking up at a hole in the sky. I believe the map is the instance where Zaiwei is destroyed...haven't played the game in a long time so, correct me if I'm wrong.

One lazy fall day.......
Gonna keep doing this watercolor thing. It's actually pretty relaxing compared to trying to use alcohol markers.

2020 Inktober Day #1: Fish
"In the northern darkness there is a fish and his name is Kun. The Kun is so huge I don’t know how many thousand li* he measures. He changes and becomes a bird whose name is Peng. The back of the Peng measures I don’t know how many thousand li across and, when he rises up and flies off, his wings are like clouds all over the sky."
-- Zhuangzi, Chapter 1: Wandering Beyond
(*Li: a unit of distance, usage in language is similar to the mile, but is much shorter)
Back just in time for Inktober. I'm aware that my handwriting is utter shit, so I had someone in the family help with the writing in the picture. As for the watercolor...this is actually my very first attempt at watercolor, and I'm pretty surprised that this picture didn't turn out as bad as I thought it would.

Second project for my digital drawing class.  The person is actually someone in my class.  Her drawing of me is way better than my drawing of her lol.
I spent wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long shading in the dress (I’m beginning to think that I might have OCD....?  Like I mean the actual disorder.  I literally can’t help but add in a bunch of pointless details to every single drawing I do.) that I had to do an awful rush job on the background.  Oh well.  I’m just gonna cross my fingers and hope for good grades.

Some stuff from the third week of class. These were part of 2 series of drawings (4 for each series, 8 in total).
Both drawings here were inked by hand traditionally, then scanned in and shaded with photoshop

Some stuff from second week of class
First one is a dude in the class
Second is a random dude that was getting a protein bar at the library cafe (who did not know I was drawing him loool)
Third is an assignment (draw 20 things of the same theme), and me, like an idiot, did a scene with all of them, which made my life harder in the next class work assignment, since we are supposed to "piece together a new scene" in photoshop. Oh well. I'll do what I can.

Some stuff from the first week of digital drawing class. The third one was basically an exercise (very similar to blind contour drawing) designed to condition us to draw on a tablet while looking at the screen, which is something I have been doing. But drawing while not looking at what you've drawn is still different from the actual experience of digital drawing/painting, so I think I did reasonably well here. At least I can finally tell what I've drawn lol

New sketchbook for digital drawing class, and the first assignment was to decorate the first page. I wasn't feeling very creative, so here's a simple drawing of the First Candidate (final form).

Lyra with Pan
I believe His Dark Materials wiki mentioned that Philip Pullman got the idea of daemons from some famous paintings, like Leonardo da Vinci’s Lady with the Ermine (1489-1490), and since Pantalaimon transforms into an ermine sometimes, I thought I would do one where Lyra and Pan are roughly in the same poses as da Vinci’s painting.
———————–
I experimented with lighting from different sources here and it didn’t turn out too badly (relief lol).  Also, the light places still doesn’t have enough of a glow to them, so…………..I’m in a place where I definitely need to learn some photoshop now.

Happy New Year everyone!
This painting is inspired by the song 《意难平》 (also it’s meant to be a phone wallpaper, which is why the top is a bit empty, but that may or may not work; feel free to go over to my dA to find the bigger version and try it).  I believe it actually plays in the show itself at one point.  Here’s my own translation of the lyrics:
意难平/Inconsolable
穿越 往昔 莲坞边
Traveling by the old Lotus Pier
碧潭 旧影 犹少年
Teal waters reflecting a younger self
时光迁 梦浅 潋滟错觉
Rippling like an illusion a dream shifting back in time
愿执一笔 寄予云梦故人念
Wishing to send a letter to the people of Yunmeng I used to know
意难平 笑问苍天 
Inconsolable, I laugh to the heavens 
回首却 不觉已过经年 
Turning around, years fly by unnoticed 
无别无离 无忧无怨 
A time without farewells or departures, without worries or resentments 
可还闻得 一声阿羡 
Hoping to hear "Ah Xian" one more time 
梦醒 秋晚 不知觉 
Awakening in the autumn evening 
萤火 明灭 月翩跹 
Blinking fireflies under a shimmering moon 
曾并肩 笑谈 人世万千 
Recalling us laughing together at worldly affairs 
佳景易变 昔日故人今难见 
But good times fade, now reunion is out of reach 
意难平 斑驳从前 
Inconsolable, tears streaking the memories 
如何归 紫衫加身时年 
Longing for those years spent in purple garbs 
不恨不悔 不生不灭 
Without hatred or regret, without life or death 
泪眼化作 一句理解 
There was only teary-eyed understanding 
意难平 笑问苍天 
Inconsolable, I laugh to the heavens 
回首却 不觉已过经年 
Turning around, years fly by unnoticed 
无别无离 无忧无怨 
A time without farewells or departures, without worries or resentments 
可还闻得 一声阿羡 
Wishing to hear "Ah Xian" one more time 
云梦水天 
Oh, the waters and skies of Yunmeng...
