Featuring "Mantic Minotaur".
#art #mastoart #fediart

Magical Mantic Minotaur has divining and prophetic powers. This Minotaur can tell you what the future will bring. The spread of tarot cards floating in front of this majestic body shows the Wheel of Fortune (for good luck), Six of Wands (for victory), and The Chariot (for determination). Other cards not yet picked are magically floating around this scenery. The hands of the Minotaur wearing white gloves are above the glowing crystal bowl helping to read the happenings of the next few centuries. A very meditative state. Above the head of the Minotaur, we can see the third eye shedding light for a more accurate reading. All is well according to the slight smile of this prophet". https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Mantic-Minotaur-973691018

New artwork - ✨ Six of Swords ✨🌻 Welcome tarot card 56! ☀️ Topics: transition, traveling through difficult territory, and escaping danger.
I've chosen a bumblebee family (parents and a little one) to depict this card. Bumblebees stand for beginnings and finding new destinations... they also have cute buts. 😉 https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Six-of-Swords-1035292862 #art #mastoart #fediart #tarot

The Six of Swords card, created with Krita and Blender, is about transition, traveling through difficult territory, and moving away from danger.

I've chosen a bumblebee family (parents and their little one) to depict these topics because they stand for beginnings and finding new destinations. You might have seen them already on a hike or in your garden while bees are still hiding from us :).

This bumblebee family wants to get away from drought, dead trees, and the lack of vegetation. They are traveling toward the sun(flower) full of hope to live a better life. Dry branches are trying to hold them back while sitting on a dead and rather transparent leaf functioning as a boat. Water is very scarce in this region. While they can of course fly on their own, they take every opportunity to save some of their strength. The path to paradise is long and goes through several mountain ranges. Where a more colorful and happy life seems to be waiting. Safe travels! https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Six-of-Swords-1035292862

Meet ✨ Noble Numbat ✨. :blobcat:
Inspired by Ubuntu release 24.04 LTS which is scheduled for release in April 2024!
It took over a month to paint this artwork. I made it with my favorite open source tools, Krita & Blender. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Noble-Numbat-1023754958 #art #mastoart #fediart #illustration #krita #blender3d

Since numbats are an endangered species (currently ~1000 remaining thanks to reintroducing them into the wild) I thought of a spiritual sacred background. Materials from their natural habitat should appear, like a tree and branches. So it happened in the form of circle weaving patterns.

To underline the rareness of numbats I wanted to indicate that this species is very slowly vanishing. Keeping slight gold and silver colors for nobility. The numbat is walking elegantly over tree bark. The fur color transitions from warm to colder colors. Noble Numbat is enjoying the noble time it has been given on this small but precious planet.

A headless robot in space surrounded by the atmosphere and starts. Walking on an alien planet. Holding six heads in each of its arms, each showing a different emotion. Which of these will the headless robot wear today? Or will they circle around within a day? Bright light shines where it will be placed in anticipation.

Fantasy landscape. A water wave reaching far away. From cold to warm colors. Visitors from different places travel by boat to witness a birth or re-birth of a water dragon. This very rare moment happens only once in a lifetime. Their offspring will tell tales until they might get a chance to witness it themselves.

Holding a few prefabricated buildings in its hands, ready to improve the small and scarce living conditions of this planet and the universe.

A sci-fi alien city structure. Reaching far into space with a natural touch. Warm and cold colors are equally visible. The brightest part of the structure is at the starting point from the asteroid or planet. The city is quite alive. Tiny spaceships are delivering passengers and precious goods. Will they leave this place or stay awhile? Only the universe knows.
