riley ✨🏳️‍⚧️

hello #PortfolioDay ! I’m riley and I’m a character artist specialising in expressive, emotionally driven work, esp animals. I love capturing subtle expressions, atmosphere and personality in a way that feels lived-in and real ❤️ contact: ritwellart@outlook.com website: rileylangstonart.carrd.co

closer detail shots! gonna work on refining the background details and shading tonight and finish this one up 🙏

making steady progress on this commission… nearly finished!! lots of detail and refining still needed 🙏

Resilience

price lowered to $625 🙏

some days i have 0 min to spare for art, some days 45 min to 2 hours, on rare days 5-6 hours. i can’t predict what i’ll get and once i start i never know if a piece that’s typically quick will take longer. every day is a lesson in recovery. do what you can and always try again on the next chance.

i still need to update trello w new orders and get some emails sent but it’ll have to wait until later this week. i have a lot of larger pieces in the works that all have some level of priority so i’m doing my best to take one thing at a time 🙏 i appreciate everyone’s patience so much ❤️

Im so very sorry to be so pushy right now but I really do need a bit of help with medical costs & transport. Things are tight and it's getting very hard to cover everything. Any little bit & sharing helps. I know i ask for a lot and things...keep happening. Im sorry. I really am.
