Sharing the process for one of my favorite paintings this year. Inspired by Alchemised, I poured a lot of emotion in capturing the essence of the book and what it meant for me as a reader. I wanted to capture her tender resignation and the soft whispers of the surrounding ruins. Here, she has come…

"No matter how you've romanticised him, Kaine Ferron is not a person. He is a monster." - @SenLinYu It's such an immense pleasure to paint this as part of my Unbound for Gaza commission. I started with an idea of a menacing Kaine but he always turns into something more tragic. But then I thought…

“I always have to choose, and I never get to choose you. I’m so tired of not getting to choose you.” - @SenLinYu As we erode with the passage of war under the ever present shadow of the reaper, what is there that’s left of us in the end? #alchemised #manacled #senlinyu #fyp #foryoupage #booktok…

SWIPE WITH CAUTION - ⚠️ Spoilers ahead. My collection so far! Art by me. Series by @Pierce Brown #redrising #redrisingtrilogy #darrowoflykos #piercebrown #booktok

“I’m afraid that someday I’ll come, and you—you won’t be here.” - Alchemised, @SenLinYu TW: 🩸 He was just a boy. 🥺 Couldn’t resist jumping on this trend. #alchemised #kaineferron #alchemisedsenlinyu #highreeve #fyp

“Don’t pretend to care,” he spat. “You expect me to believe you didn’t know this would happen?” TW: 🩸 A year later, and I’m still imprisoned in your clutches, @SenLinYu. #alchemised #kaineferron #senlinyu #alchemisedsenlinyu #highreeve

Welcome to my little bookish corner where everything is done agonizingly and lovingly by hand. But what is art if you don’t carve pieces of yourself and pour it inside every creation? ✨ Featured works: Red Rising by @Pierce Brown Our Dark Incantations by @Wanda Hellmund Alchemised by @SenLinYu…

“Who knows, perhaps the darkness will be kinder than the light.” - @Pierce Brown Oh Cassius, my beloved. His character arc will forever be one of my favorites. From a pompous, beautiful, golden boy to what you become in the upcoming books is a wonder to behold. I really wanted to capture his…

"Soft head, hard bullet. Bad combination, b—". - Dark Age, Red Rising by @Pierce Brown Really excited with how she turned out because I wanted to capture that gritty, biting personality of Lyria's but still introduce the softness of her heart as well. Trying to decide who I should paint next…

My one and only Eaglet. 🙌🏻 #redrising #lyriaoflagalos #piercebrown #redrisingtrilogy #darkage @Pierce Brown

@Pierce Brown isn’t the only one who can trauma dump. After watching the Odyssey, I have only one Ulysses on my mind. #redrising #victraaujulii #darkage #redrisingtrilogy #piercebrown

"I am the spark that will set the worlds afire. I am the hammer that cracks the chains." - @Pierce Brown Had to do this one with this trend, it just fit so well! #redrising #darrow #piercebrown #redrisingtrilogy #darrowoflykos

“I am no martyr. I am not vengeance. I am Eo's dream.” - @Pierce Brown TW:🩸 #redrising #darrowoflykos #piercebrown #redrisingtrilogy #fyp

She looked up at him. “You’re a monster.” He raised an eyebrow. “Noticed that, have you? Really proud that the fire in her eyes are her expression are as venomous as they should be. @SenLinYu #helenamarino #kaineferron #alchemised #senlinyu #alchemisedsenlinyu

Starting a second portrait to compliment my Kaine one. I find her so stricking, I really wanted to focus on unique features and intense expression. #helenamarino #kaineferron #alchemised #senlinyu #alchemisedsenlinyu @SenLinYu

Helena and the trappings of her mind. #alchemised #kaineferron #helenamarino #alchemisedsenlinyu #senlinyu @SenLinYu
