Rowan loves to paint. He likes painting nature and birds the most, but he also draws people occasionally (typically his boyfriend). He's addicted to coffee for a few reasons but art is one of them. He will not sleep until he finishes a piece. He's pretty destructive as well, unfortunately. If he doesn't like a piece he made, even if he took weeks on it, he will destroy it. His favorite paint would definitely be watercolors.
As a companion to my other thread, "Show me your musically talented characters": Show me your characters who are artists or writers!
They don't need to be professionals, and any sort of art, crafts, or writing will do. I'd just like to see your characters who are creative! Tell us about what they do!
Edit: I see some people asking if various things count. I'd say music-related creativity fits the other thread rather than this one, but otherwise any kind of arts or creation that you feel fit the thread are welcome here!
He's been drawing since he was young. He loves to paint and spends a lot of time with hands on crafts. He makes matryoshka dolls from scratch. He likes to draw portraits of people and sometimes carries a sketchbook with him.
ryuu's an author! all his stories before he met his bf were sad and gay and he kept killing off his protags' love interests (he was coping 💔)
I have quite a few in the AskIsaak story!
Isaak (main character TM) is a writer, he's used to be both a fanfic writer and 'blog journalist' but now he only write stories about his own characters. Technically one of his story is this one here it's written as an AskIsaak AU but in the AskIsaak universe/the real version Isaak wrote the character aren't Isaak and his friend but character Isaak created. Isaak occasionally doodle but only outfits sketches to help him plan better how to then create patterns and sow. He also has a sculpting skill and did make figures of multiple people's fursonas
The 3 Alexeev brothers are artist... well Artyom isn't much of an artist but he does doodle quite often. They each have wildly different Art styles. Arty does cartoony chibis, Vadim is hella anime and Andrei has a (in universe) realistic style
Like Issaak, Vadim is also a very skilled clothe maker, tho while Isaak tend to make everyday outfits Vadim prefers to make cosplays and fursuits (tho Isaak does make costumes too!)
Grey has rarely been show in universe drawing but he hes a furry who does occasionally draw his fursona and rp as him but art-wise he prefer commissioning people. He does make decorations and charms out of bones tho? it's artistic?
Bonus: Both him and Lionel plays guitar! Tho grey also plays bass and drums.
some bonus rounds!
Lionel is a hobbyist photographer
Micheal and Andrei do model kits and kit bashing together
Micheal doesn't write but in canon he's been shown to be very poetic when talking to his SO. like making hella artsy metaphorical compliments and flirts
Kennedy's food presentation is often made artistically; like you know those bento boxes that looks like bears napping stuff like that? yeah that's what he enjoys doing!
Edit: I forgot to mention that Arty and Vadim are game devs so a lot of story writing and art and coding goes into that too!
my OCs got their own OCs and sh*t
Lance is an aspiring photographer and occasionally writes some hot gossip as a form of 'journalism' which he'll usually then sell to tabloids and whatnot.
Voss is a tattoo artist! He prefers just doing linework, but he knows how to fill it in as well of course.
Jax vandalizes places with graffiti a lot for funsies. Griffin accompanies him occasionally as well, but he's a lot less artistically inclined than Jax and usually just assists with the basic aspects that are difficult to mess up.
Nyx was a bit of a drama kid growing up and uses what they learned from their classes and the performances they've been a part of to improve their showmanship on-camera and in-person. They also write scripts for all of their 'evil plan announcement' videos.
Putting the hobbyists and dubious ones in a box so I don't clog the thread up more lmao
Kat dabbles in slam poetry sometimes. She also occasionally writes personal poetry that she doesn't perform at meets.
Quince has written quite a few scientific journals and studies since no one else will. (Most people in his world believe a lot more in religion than science and tend to look down on the latter)
Eva writes reports and notes for their experiments, though they're obviously not released to the public.
Prysm loves and will try basically any visual art medium, though its favorite is painting.
Bastian sketches whenever xe's bored, though xe only uses graphite and charcoal.
Lumi has a verifiable hoard of coloring books they fill in daily.
Amuri has a romance novel in the works for literal centuries now. No one knows how long it is or if he's even actively working on it anymore. Her writing style is rather flowery though.
Flax used to write short stories and letters to themself prior to their infection.
Matrix ran a blog that he updated daily before he got trapped in the virtual world. Sometimes he'll go back and add an entry for shits and giggles, but what little following it previously had is long gone by now so his posts remain unread.
PepperLand enjoys writing poetry. He finds it calming and loves sharing his creations with his best friend Bear.
Francis knows how to sew all kinds of things, usually cosplay stuff. I suppose that makes him a tailor of some sort.
