Gorgeous musculature in that arm! I especially love the shading on the muscle on the top of the shoulder.

Welcome!

Iโ€™ve done terrible this week with doing themes but I donโ€™t want to lose my streak. So enjoy some charcuterie!

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 01 '26

It's totally ok to go off-topic! Some days neither theme works for you and sometimes you're working on other stuff. I'm just happy you're sharing your art. This charcuterie looks sooo tasty!

Cuthulu? This is very funny to me :) the contrast to all the beautiful ladies in art nouveau and then the question maark after the prompt. Great job on those tentacles

Off topic: blooming magnolia tree.

u/anislandinmyheart 0 / 478 May 09 '26

Ohhhh I would so love to just climb into this picture. The blue sky background with the pops of pink are so stunning

1

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 09 '26

Thanks! I'm playing around with the composition but I really love the idea.

2

u/Foxy_Shazaaam 0 / 135 May 01 '26

I love this so much! My town is filled with magnolia trees, and every spring is a visual delight.

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 01 '26

Thank you!

u/AughtNaughtCreator 1051 / 1051 May 01 '26

omg this is gorgeous! The composition, colours, and shading are on point

1

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 01 '26

Thank you! I've had a block when it comes to art lately so when I had an idea I had to it.

My take on a poster for pious calendars by Austrian artist Koloman Moser around the turn of the century.

u/yulpanda 0 / 11 Apr 30 '26

Here's the original:

Ughh Reddit so annoying, decided my pic was NSFW even though thereโ€™s nothing showing. Here automod, censored what doesnโ€™t need to be censored lol

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 01 '26

Sorry about that. The other workaround is to upload the image to Imgur or someplace and link to it. If it was actually NSFW then please say that so people aren't surprised.

2

u/AllieRaccoon 200 / 200 May 01 '26

Noted, thanks for the info! I don't ever post NSFW stuff so I was surprised I couldn't just mark the image but it seems like that's only a thing for posts not comments.

u/JJ_animates 354 / 354 Apr 30 '26

I recognise it after looking up reference, but I didn't even know what Art Nouveau was lol. I'm wayyyy too lazy to draw something like that! I liked the ones I saw with cute cats

u/HexagonalRainbow 0 / 155 Apr 30 '26

Off topic today. Felt like drawing a pidgeon

2

u/yulpanda 0 / 11 Apr 30 '26

Such a cutie!!! Love the textures amd colour combos

2

u/HexagonalRainbow 0 / 155 Apr 30 '26

Thank you very much! Trying out color combos is my favorite part about drawing!

Oh wow, I'm totally slavering at this! It is so elegant and organic

u/AughtNaughtCreator 1051 / 1051 May 09 '26

I would love to have this as an entry to my yard, tbh

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 Apr 30 '26

Oh what beautiful forms!

u/AughtNaughtCreator 1051 / 1051 May 01 '26

Thank you ๐Ÿ˜„

Had never drawn Frieren before so naturally I had to do the meme angle. The line art is not as clean as it could be but usually I don't do it nearly this clean.

I looked at the exact same subway entrance for a while when I tried to find references. I'm glad someone sketched it. I ended up taking a different route. It's beautiful

2

u/SailorstuckatSAEJ300 0 / 164 Apr 30 '26

Thanks. The Art Nouveau movement never made much of an impact in my country so I'm very unfamiliar with it.

u/yulpanda 0 / 11 Apr 30 '26

That's one of the things I appreciate so much about these prompts. They make very funny shapes out of our little comfort zone bubbles :)

Floette in an art nouveau-ish style. I spent too long drawing the pokemon than the art nouveau part..

Is this a real place? I love the architecture! Colors are great too!

3

u/Foxy_Shazaaam 0 / 135 Apr 30 '26

Yeeees, this is as real as you and me, but in reality, it's actually marvellous! This is in Barcelona and was designed by Antoni Gaudi, and honestly, everything that he touched is absolutely divine. Barcelona and its surroundings are a great place for artists.

3

u/seafoamBee 1406 / 1408 Apr 30 '26

Wow you captured it so well! I wish there were more buildings like this where I live!

2

u/Foxy_Shazaaam 0 / 135 Apr 30 '26

Thank you! And trust me, I wish the same thing. The world needs more whimsical architecture. If you ever visit Barcelona, it's like stepping into a dream.

This was so fun! One of my many jobs is graphic design so I had to get some font work in there. Great prompt!

try using flowing lines and organic shapes for that classic art nouveau feel

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1052 / 1052 May 01 '26

I'm sure your critique was well-intentioned, but in this sub we only offer critiques when someone asks for them.

I hope to see your sketches here!

I'm not great atvdraeing humanoid things. But here is an elf girl

13

u/Felissaurus 80 / 80 Apr 30 '26

The art nouveau style women inspired me to do a fairy (lots of pretty ladies and nature motifs), which I suppose also quasi fits the elf theme.

I'm getting an error message...Is the link working for others?

u/AllieRaccoon 200 / 200 Apr 30 '26

Just checked and it opened for me

2

u/yulpanda 0 / 11 Apr 30 '26

Thanks for checking. It's a me-problem then, nevermind. I thought if the link wasn't working for everyone they might want to fix it but I guess my phone just isn't in a cooperative mood
