2D art of the week: Zara H
Briefly

Zara has beautifully combined her passion for gaming and art, immersing herself in the rich narratives of horror and fantasy, while embodying the SWANA culture in her character designs.
As a big gamer, I wasn't immune to the pull of Baldur's Gate 3, and drew Shadowheart and her connection to the Mysterious Artefact. This character illustrates how video game narratives can inspire and shape artistic expression.
As vampires are a huge inspiration, I created this original character in 2020 as an attempt at a vampire who didn't adhere to the old legends and myths. This portrayal challenges conventional vampire stereotypes and embraces creativity.
I was inspired by creatures known as shadow people, and wanted to create one that was sat like a noblewoman you'd find in an old portrait. This character reflects a blend of folklore and classical art influences, capturing a unique aesthetic.
