“𝕴 𝖜𝖆𝖓𝖙 𝖘𝖔𝖒𝖊𝖔𝖓𝖊 𝖙𝖔 𝖘𝖊𝖊 𝖒𝖊. 𝕴 𝖜𝖆𝖓𝖙 𝖎𝖙 𝖙𝖔 𝖇𝖊 𝖞𝖔𝖚.“ I am very thrilled to finally share an illustration I got to create for @fairyloot e-reader sleeve design, inspired by “The Knight and The Moth” by the ever so spellbinding @rmgillig . As someone who has read the first book and who is as eagerly looking forward to loosing her mind again with “The Knave and The Moon”, come September, ⚔️I can’t express my excitement enough that I got to draw Sybil and Rory, and of course Bartholomew, for all of you. 🖤 I hope I was able to do them justice and create a sleeve you would be proud to carry around. 🤍 I am always very grateful to the sweet Fairyloot team for having me, with a special thank you to the kind and patient Bethan on this project! 🩶 —————— This e-reader sleeve design could be found exclusively in FairyLoot’s “Dangerous Devotion” March box, along with other beautiful goodies! #illustration #illustrator #theknightandthemoth #fairyloot

• ENDPAPER REVEAL • I am overjoyed that my renaissance loving heart finally gets to share these endpaper illustrations for @fairyloot Exclusive Edition of “Graceless Heart” by Isabel Ibañez. I dearly love and admire @isabelibanezbooks with all my heart, so getting to be a part of a project for one of her captivating books last year was a joy and a wonderful challenge for myself! ♥️ ——————————— You might have noticed this by now🤭, but I am always inspired by architectural ornaments and historical motives. And working with Italian renaissance? 🏛️ Oh you don’t have to ask me twice! I spent a good one week studying sculptures and architectures, practicing natural and geometrical band motives to get as close to the original inspiration of 15th-century renaissance elements as possible. It might seem challenging but to me it brought so much joy, because in the end I got to create one of my most favourite artworks yet. 💗 This beautiful book and this edition have been out in the world for some time now, and it would be quite hard to describe how happy all your appreciation and love for these made me feel. ♥️ I am honoured that I got a chance to work on these endpapers for all of you with the loving Fairyloot team! ———————————— #bookillustrator #illustrationartist #digitalart #digitalartist #fairylootedition

I am most delighted to share the cover for @mararutherfordwrites ‘s “My Unfamiliar”, that I illustrated under the kind and most gentle guidance of @wednesdaybooks ‘s Art Director @kerriresnick . 🤍 What a dream project it was! For me especially, as I dived into this cozy world, filled with animals and cottage core aesthetics! 🌱 I got to revisit my most fond memories of reading Brambly Hedge and Beatrix Potter’s stories when I was younger, 🦔 and just as eagerly hoped to fill this cover with the same feeling of warmth and comfort as these classics. ✨ It would of course not be possible without Kerri and Mara, who always made sure to let me know how much they appreciated everything at every step of the way. ♥️ Thank you everyone involved in this project, for putting your faith into me. And of course thank you all so much for showing so much love for this cover already. I am always and truly grateful! Kindly yours, ♥️ Lolloco #coverreveal #bookcover #illustration #illustrator #bookcoverillustration

I’m madly excited to show you the full character art for These Shattered Spires, a gothic fantasy with undead nuns and curses galore. Taro, Nixie, Alix, and Elliot were brought to life by the wondrous @thelolloco who took every detail about these toxic weirdos and turned them into these AMAZING portraits. 🦴 Taro, a bone arcanist who draws power from skeletal remains, is a sarcastic ultragoth who revels in her abilities and happily covers herself in bone regalia. Here you can see her in a ribcage corset, with bones up her arms and slicked-back hair that makes her look like a beetle. (Hot.) 🍃 Nixie is a botanic arcanist, and as someone who draws power from plants, she has been drawn with lots of nods to her discipline: wrist sheathes like gardening gloves, super-detailed floral embroidery, and the calm gaze typical of poison-lovers (and chronic overachievers). 📕 Alix is a former stone arcanist and current library-dweller. As someone right at the bottom of the ladder Alix’s clothes are fairly minimalistic, with a touch of neo-brutalism. I love that you can see their binding under their clothing, and their pencil, which doubles as a weapon. 🩸 Lastly we have Elliot, a blood disciple whose lavish portrait includes a velvet jacket embroidered with jewelled blood and my favourite detail - a bleeding sword-pierced heart at his collar. (Zoom in, it’s glorious.) The smirk on his face is just right; he’s always very pleased with himself. I was already excited when the sketches came in, but when the full colour art turned up I was genuinely shocked by how well everything had been captured. I feel very lucky to have had such an amazing artist for these portraits. They also appear (in black and white) in the front of the book, alongside a super-detailed map of the Desecrae by @virginiaallyn and of course the amazingly dramatic cover by @danlinz_art ! These Shattered Spires, the first installment in the gothic fantasy trilogy Wyrdos, is out with Bloomsbury worldwide on March 10th. You can preorder it from your favourite bookshop, add it to Goodreads, or pre-save the audiobook wherever you get yours. Netgalley ARCs are also available! Links in bio 🖤

• The Girl, the Book and the Secret it holds • ——————————————————— • BY HUMAN FOR HUMANS It all started with a simple idea, but the more I worked on it, the more I pushed myself to try and see what I could achieve with my “more is more” mindset. In the end, it took over a year on-and-off to finish. There are a 1000+ little manual strokes in each shot. Everything I could possibly animate and everything I could possibly paint…I did absolutely everything my mindful, but chaotic heart told me to.🙂‍↕️☺️ And this is what art is, isn’t it? The challenge and the beauty of figuring it out to create something one of its kind, even if it is a 10 second little animation. And In short this is what art by humans for humans means. 🤍 Hopefully this will bring you a sense of awe, or perhaps peace or maybe inspiration 🪄☺️ anything that could make your life even a tiny little bit more whimsical and beautiful. • THIS IS JUST A FRAGMENT The concept and story behind this has been patiently waiting in the depths of my heart ever since I became Lolloco. Slowly, with mindful steps, I am able to bring life to the chaos-of-a-world that lives inside my imagination. And I would like to take you along with me! 🖤🪄🎩 PROGRAMS USED: For drawing: procreate For assembling: procreate dreams More to come!
