“PIECES OF PROVIDENCE”

AD SANGUINEM ORENIUS IN OMNI MUNDO,

 

Under the watchful eye of Her Majesty Amadea of Susa, I, Octavia Helen, youngest daughter to Philip III and Anastasia I, have long practiced the fine arts from the comforts of Karosgrad. I am most pleased to announce that my studies have borne fruit. I do believe myself proficient enough to offer my services to the public, as my eldest sister, HIH Catherine once did when Providence still stood. I pray that I might do her proud.  

 

Be you Haeseni, Acrean, Balianite, or what have you, I shall henceforth entertain requests to put paint to canvas and chisel to stone on your behalf. One may find me wandering the halls of the Morrivi in Karosgrad, or of course, through way of bird.

OCTAVIA’S PORTFOLIO

 

Pricing shall be dependent on the scale and intricacy of the piece one wishes to purchase. Portraits painted from reference shall cost a fee of twenty-five minas. Those painted without shall cost a basic fee of one-hundred minas, with the price increasing in the same manner as mentioned above. 

 

Busts cut from marble shall cost one-hundred minas in most cases. Should the piece prove particularly strenuous, or be in need of further detail, the price may be increased to a limit of one-hundred-fifty minas. 

 

Below, I have seen fit to attach both a collection of paintings commissioned by His Grace, the Duke of Vidaus, as well as a series of busts depicting a few recent names in history. In addition to previous works, I have included two of the portraits commissioned by Her Majesty Amadea of Susa before her death.

 

“MARIUS AUDEMAR”

“AMADEA OF SUSA”

 

“THE QUEEN’S HAND”     “DRUZSTRA CASTLE”

“JURE UXORIS”     “THE BARONIAL RETINUE”

 

“SIGISMUND III”

“PHILIP III”

 

“HANNES OF ACRE”

[OOC]

 

Any AI-Generated paintings will automatically include a pixelized version.

 

I. Art and screenshots which are provided to me to pixelize, or AI-Generated paintings with a given piece of art will cost 50 minas. As a note, the AI-Generated art will look best on a 1x1 or 1x2 imported map depending on the background it generates.

 

II. Paintings which will require me to take my own screenshots to pixelize, or create an AI-Generated painting with no provided references will cost 100 minas.

 

III. Busts will cost 100 minas. If you would like me to reshade the head that the bust is being made from, it will cost an extra 50 minas.

 

Please note that the paintings are not freehand. They are screenshots and images that are heavily edited and touched up/framed by myself afterward. I only do the busts by hand. My discord is kayla#8544 if you want to contact me about commissions.

TAPETIA NOSTRA HOMINUM TEXAMUS,

 

Her Imperial Highness, Octavia Helen Ruthern née Novellen, Princess of the Holy Orenian Empire

[PerfectlyPeachy 1344]

Princess Analiesa Barbanov-Bihar marvels at her new portrait, her fingertips tracing the brushstrokes of the canvas. “She even managed to get my nose right…”

 

”Nobody ever gets my nose right!”

[garentoft 8352]

"A natural talent, and a pleasure to work with," noted the Grand Prince of Kusoraev, having himself commissioned multiple paintings from her so far.

[indiana105 2125]

Mikhail var Ruthern cracked a thin smile as a manservant hung the final piece he commissioned, a portrait of himself, above the mantle at Druzstra. "A dobry painting of a dobry man," he stated proudly as he waved off the strelt in order to admire the work in peace.
