Late Nights • Tera S Art

Digital painting of a sleeping girl in bed. The girl is caucasian and has dark hair pulled back into a loose braid. She has fallen asleep while working, a notebook in her lap and her face illuminated by her laptop computer's light. On the walls are drawings and Christmas lights. On the bedside table is a small pile of books, her phone, and a lamp.

Finished up Rowan! I wanted to finish her before the year ended but this works too. It was nice to spend part of my birthday (apparently today is also World Introvert Day??) finishing her up.

I spent a lot of time putting together a bunch of my sketches to use as Rowan’s sketches on the wall. She’s a storyteller, who both writes and illustrates, because they always say to just write what you know.

I don’t usually go so hard with environments but it was a challenge that I had more fun with than I expected. Having a 3D model (I use DAZStudio) was very helpful there.

Barrie. A cropped close-up of part of the digital painting showing the laptop computer. There are various stickers on the back.
