Quick announcements, I'm sorry, I've been gone for more than a fortnight! ^^"

I've been working on this on and off for quite some time, because I couldn't get it quite right (and even now I'm doubting it- ), so don't complain that I'm putting this above other things.

I got the idea to start drawing simple headshots of characters that people have submitted to TES (my original story) via my applyfic (or my offer).

Currently, the ones higher up on my list are: Brooke (King-Quail), Orchid (Nettle-Fox), Lilikoi (Stuffshadow), Coucal (MistleSong), Jacana (IRL friend), Mesa (GoldFoxDraws), Sandstone (ram3n-Catto), Korala (Moonwatcher132) and one of Willow-Heart's characters.

More are coming in the future as gifts or to just decide upon the design/colours of the dragons. If you want to see your or a particular person's dragon drawn, then you can comment some suggestions down below!

Other than that, I'm going to be working on a headshot of Xerecole (with his birth mark, jewellery, sneak peeks for his personality, etc), a shading tutorial that was requested and adopts.

Thank you for reading this (if you did) and for sticking with me for this long <3
Now, on with the art! 😀

A gift for SmokyBerries

As mentioned above, I decided to draw some significant characters from TES and Jacaranda is definitely one of them. And then I thought, why not draw her with one of her pets. Since I can't draw birds decently, I did Tio (sorry, Mango!)

The character design was made entirely by Blackberry and I don't accept credit for it. However, the species and art was created by and belongs to me. So absolutely no copying at all, please and thank you.

And, yes, that is a new watermark not part of the design. It's still in a testing phase but it might change. More on that at the end.

Hope you like her, Blackberry!

I'm alright with how Jaca turned out. The snout is too thin and the horns turned out weird, but, oddly enough, I haven't had much practice with drawing the final, decent versions of my dragon species (since I changed them quite a bit from the beginning).

I draw on a phone, so don't blame me for the asymmetrical snake and neck/back lineart. Please don't- T^T

Any polite constructive criticism or advice is welcome, as well as areas of success, for future art pieces.

Thank you very much for all the support, especially with TES, and I hope you all have a lovely rest of your day/night! <33

Goodbye everyone and see you soon!

Some watermark backstory:

I decided to make my watermark for digital pieces something that represents me and my personality. So, I picked nature, because pure nature is amazing and blessed in every way, and I took a test to find out what I am in nature. One test said I'm a rock (;w;) and the other two said I'm a tree. So, then, I took five tests to see what type of tree I was. Every single one sisd that I am a willow tree, I researched what they represent and I agree enough.

Hence, that is why my watermark is now a willow tree with my name in pale font, as it blends in better to the drawing (in most cases, I promise this is slightly different).

Anyway, thank you if you're interested enough to have come this far. If you want, comment your favourite tree to let me know, heh. ^^'
Goodbye!
