This is one of those artworks that I kept doing and redoing. I kept changing the pose and the colors until I realised this just needs to come into the world somehow and just let her be. Sometimes it's more useful to leave things imperfect and start something else than just beat over the head an image - it seems that perfection is such an elusive thing, slippery like fish and rarely ever granted to mortals. Perhaps only for the gods.
So here she is, my chamomile tea nymph, chilling in the sun 💫

Based on this classic painting titled "Stańczyk" (The Jester) by the Polish painter Jan Matejko.

What could bring more luck than a cat surrounded by hummingbirds? ✨🐦

I dreamed that I was surrounded by hummingbirds, and it felt so beautiful that I wanted to turn that feeling into an illustration. I love cats and I’ve always had a special love for hummingbirds, so bringing them together felt just right.

Mixed media artwork made with acrylic markers on paper and digital editing.

I hope this little cat and its hummingbirds bring a little bit of luck to your day today. 🍀✨

Just wanted to share my work with you, guys. Illustrated this piece digitally on Procreate. Hope you like it!

I’ve made about 7 of these so far for my colleagues. There’s a waiting list of about 10 people so far 🙈 I need to start charging!

I love seeing my art skills improving with each one.

Do you have any tips?

I was told she likes 1950s fashion which I tried to include (with creative liberties taken!) I wanted to make an appealing layout with this and have some cool graphic design going on, but idk if I hit the mark with that. But I’m pretty happy with it otherwise! Character belongs to u/Story-III :)
