Lost 03 New painting!

New painting!

Lost 02 Continuing my new illustration series. I'm experimenting a lot with more textured brushwork, trying to create a more tactile feeling. But it is probably hard to see zoomed out :)

First entry to my new personal illustration series

Lately I've been working a lot with Blender. And I love the opportunity it gives to add animation and camera movement to my illustrations. Here's a little test I did a while ago


Concept painting for a new personal illustration series I'm considering starting. Exploring themes of being lost and finding your way again.

It's been awhile! I really want to start a new illustration series based on a girl and a very big dog travelling around. Here's the first little concept drawing for it :)

"On the Edge" I've been getting into a high-fantasy mood lately, so here's a warrior doing magic next to a pictoresque waterfall

A bit of a rougher comfortzone painting! I just love doing these to relax, no sketch, no buildings, I just start painting somewhere and see where it ends!

Shepherd's Journey 10/10 Our protagonist and his sheep have taken over a hot spring! The last entry to this little series comes way overdue. Seeing how this was originally an October challenge. But it is a fitting way to end 2023!

I'm currently still working on some new personal paintings. So, I thought I would share this almost 5 year old landscape! It is a bit dated, but I still really love it!

I’m turning 28 today, and reflecting on the past year I’m really happy with some of the art I made! Still, I notice that a lot of my paintings are unfinished, my goal for year 28 is to let go of perfectionism and truly finish the art I want to put into this world! Thank you all

I don't overthink my artstyle. It is not an endgoal, it's just a tool. There is no endgoal in art. As humans, we tend to think in finite ways - having fixed goals, an end to the journey. That's just not how art works. Draw what you love, and your artstyle will just be a tool 🌱

Shepherds's Journey 9/10 Before our shepherd reaches his destination, he first has to face one more stormy mountain range! A slightly more dramatic painting as the penultimate entry

My good friend (and amazing character designer) just joined the platform!

Hey! I'm Saverio Wielkens, or 'saverieau' a character designer from the Netherlands :) This is my first post here on X! I wanted to share this piece from a new project called ‘Scraps & Scratches’ a story about this girl and her robot. We’ll have to see how the story goes 👀
