Although I've been quiet here, it's been a busy year for art, finishing up multiple major projects, and participating in an art show. I'm very happy to release this one, a long awaited commission for Rath’Tolar! This is by far the largest and most complex sculpture I have cast, with its wingspan at 17 inches wide. Of course, this one is already on its way to his forever home, but it won't be the last you see of this mold. The Dragon Saga mold will be very limited edition, only 10 casts total (including this one & the cast I hold back for history's sake). In the future, some will be special painted with the dragon ideas I had while creating this, and possibly a few will be reserved as a custom for people's beautiful dragon characters. I've been working on modifying each cast to be unique and one of a kind - you'll see what I mean with this next one. You can view all photos, and read about the full epic saga on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/131412662 In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for some of the special paints becoming available in the future!

It’s that time of year - time for the big Season of Gratitude sale! Quick Sale Info: *Sale runs from Thurs, NOV 21 - Fri, DEC 6, 2024. *NO CODES needed. Art included in the sale will have the festival banner, and info on savings will be on the listing. *From NOV 29 - DEC 2, there will be bonus Small Business Saturday deals. *Shop: https://wintersoulstudios.bigcartel.com Detailed Sale Info: For those new to my work, I enjoy doing a big sale at the end of the year, which I call Season of Gratitude. As a thank you to everyone who has been supporting my art, I like to give you all some extra deals so that you can grab that piece of art you’ve wanted, or maybe even find a loved one a gift! This year, some of the deals you’ll find are kinda wild. This is partly a push to prepare for the coming years, they’re going to be rough, and all sales from this will go to helping me prepare. Bonus sale - this year I want to try something new. I love the idea of reminding people how much it means to small businesses when you pickup gifts in our shops, but I usually hold the sale right on top of Small Business Saturday, so it kind of ends up all lumped together. To try and highlight it a little better, for a handful of days, I’ll have additional savings. During those days you’ll get TWO bonus stickers with your orders. One will be the current bonus sticker (black hole cat), and our holiday bonus sticker (white dwarf cat). After that the bonus sticky will be switched over to the white cat. (Ooh, liminal space cats AND a sale within a sale!) Hope you come join us, to help us meet our financial goal for the end of the year, and get some fancy art gifts in the process!

This month's character auction is now live! Mirabilis appears as a cackling, wild spirit, offering the choice at a game of chance, or a key to certain madness. She’s aware that the options aren’t great, enjoying every minute of the game. Beware, while her lessons might be beneficial, she is not a tame spirit! The castings from this mold, (sculpted by myself), are only obtainable from the Animantia Arcana auctions & the Create-A-Whisp sales. Only 14 castings of each mold exist. These are no ordinary character auctions, as you get a physical package of traditional art along with a character which you’ll come to know well over time. The goal in my auctions is to provide people with characters who have meaningful stories, and that go beyond an idea in the mind/digital space. This is the FINAL Whisp available through the character auctions. Please help us close the auctions with style, tell your friends! The auction itself is only a couple more days from closing, so be sure to also join in if you're interested. Her bidding thread is located here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/58584991
