Even though I'm an astrophysicist (in a current Project Hail Mary hyperfixation 🚀✨💙👎), so far I've only done one piece of actual space art, a nebula & star cluster watercolour for the 2023 IG Spacetober challenge ✨🌟💫🌌. I quite enjoyed doing this painting, and adding the stars with white paint splashes and a toothbrush was so satisfying 🎨✨. Definitely want to make more space art in general (and Project Hail Mary fanart in particular). Also featuring bi colours, so happy Pride month 😁💖💜💙!

🎨Media: Watercolours (white watercolour for the star splatters)

🌟Reference: None per se, but I based the technique for this particular nebula painting on one of Vanessa_paints_ (IG/YouTube) 's nebula tutorials.

A year ago we attended the 2025 Estelcon (8-11th May 2025), the annual convention of the Spanish Tolkien Society, held in Canet de Berenguer (Valencia, Spain) ✨😊📚🎶📸🌊.

Flower embroidery practice (2022-25) 😃🌸🍃✨ (III - August 2025 -May 2026). Finally done! I started this project back in July 2022, on and off, practising with some flower designs on a piece of linen, following tutorials by slowly_embroidery (IG/YouTube). I'm generally keeping the main design and embroidery stitches from the tutorials, but changing some colours and sizes and adding some personal touches as well 🌸🌻. . FInal design includes some large blue flowers, a tulip, a design of leaves and sequin+beaded flowers, a bouquet with leaves and flower beads, cast-on stitch '3D' purple flowers alongside some leaves, a 'bouquet' of ferns/long leaves, a purple heather/lavender design, some beaded yellow leaves, a rose and a blue pansy. . 🌻 Stitches: -BLUE FLOWERS: Outline stitch for the stalks, long and short straight stitch for the flowers, lazy daisy stitch and French knot stitch for the leaves. -SEQUIN+BEADED PURPLE FLOWERS+LEAVES: outline stitch for the stalks, herringbone stitch for the leaves, French knot stitch for the centre of the flowers and some small leaves, and two types of beads and sequins for the flowers. -TULIP: Outline stitch for the stalk, long and short straight stitch for the tulip. -BEADED BOUQUET: Satin and padded satin stitch for the leaves, outline stitch for the branches, and various types of beads for the flowers. -3D FLOWERS: Cast-on stitch for the flowers (the most complicated stitch I've tried to date), and herringbone/leaf stitch for the leaves. -FERN BOUQUET: Split stitch. -HEATHER: Outline stitch for the stem, lazy daisy stitch for the flowers. -YELLOW LEAVES: herringbone/leaf stitch + beads. -ROSE: Stem rose stitch -PANSY: Split stitch for the stem, long and short straight stitch for the leaves and petals.

Throwback to a July 2017 Missy-inspired look ✨💜😁 for the one and only wedding event I've attended to date (my cousin and his husband's wedding). I had recently debuted Missy in 2016, so I decided to pair this gorgeous burgundy dress with Missy's hairstyle, boots, and a very similar make-up look.

Medieval-inspired outfit featuring Merida's kirtle and cloak and a 14th century stlye liripipe closed hood, at the February 2025 Teruel annual Medieval fair and reenactment events ("Medievales") ✨⚜️🏰. Featuring Teruel's characteristic mudéjar architecture. Swipe for more! . (mudéjar art appears in the Iberian Christian kingdoms between the 12th-17th centuries and combines Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance styles with the ornamentation and decorative elements developed in Muslim Al-Ándalus).

Missy's 'World Enough and Time' (Doctor Who, S10) majestic feather monstrousity of a hat that I made in 2019 😁✨👒☂️💜💜

This was my second millinery hat-related project (after I made a 15th Century hennin from scratch for my Burgundian outfit), but the first time decorating a hat with feathers, ribbon and fake fruit. I quite like the structure of the hat, and especially all the different layers of feathers of different lengths, colours and textures. It turned out even more extravagant than Missy's original one, I think, but definitely not sorry, because wearing it is so much fun 😁!

Imbolc ’s lá fhéile Bríde shona daoibh! The start of February marks the festivity of Imbolc, the beginning of Spring in the Celtic calendar, and it is celebrated in Ireland as Brigid’s Day 🎶☀️🍃 . The last three edits of my 2019 closet cosplay/reenactment of the Irish goddess Brighid, solar fire goddess associated with poetry and inspiration, fertility and healing, smithwork, crafts and music, and warlike protection. She’s one of my favourite goddesses in one of my favourite cultures. One of these edits focuses on her protective warlike aspect ⚒️ . My Brigid reenactment posts

Starting the year with a very belated post! My 2021 Chase Arwen cosplay test shots, featuring some 2025 edits ✨⚔️🐎 . At long last, I finally fully debuted this cosplay in an actual shoot at a Tolkien convention in May 2025, so more Arwen will be coming, and I'm planning another Chase Arwen shoot for this year near home, as I couldn't take my actual sword to the convention ✨ . ✨Riding coat: @ada_lucis 😍💗👌
