Watercolor Illustrator and Aspiring Psychologist
Pleased to meet you. My name's Rahma Mizuki. I'm just an ordinary person, enrolled in Psychology undergraduate. Harnessing what I have seen around and the knowledge I acquired inspiring me to work out with arts.
Drawing has been in my life since I was at kindergarten. Thus it let me experience painting course since a young age, later being a self-taught artist.
Thank you for visiting this section. Compliments granted to the developer (L-Fortunato). Without him, this portfolio couldn't have been made.
Alternate Universe (AU) atau dikenal dengan dunia pararel yang saling berdampingan dengan kenyataan yang berlangsung. Bagaimana tidak, kita sendiri juga sebenarnya tokoh dari panggung hidup sendiri. Namun tidak sepenuhnya lampu sorot tertuju padaku. Aku sadar aku bukan tokoh utama, bukankah sudah banyak yang menjadi utama disini?
Tak terkecuali dia yang berada di sisi lain, dengan tawa dan kebanggaan bersama orang terdekatnya. Disaat itu juga seseorang tenggelam dalam delusinya, berkata βAU ahβ. Ah maaf, sudahilah β Tapi aku tahu tidak bisaβ¦

"you still have something good on you, don't you know" "but.... what you bear until you lost sight of yourself?"
This time i painted two oni. where the red oni is being despised and beneath contempt for looking so wicked. conversely the blue oni looks kind and tender. tho both of them have a kind heart.
in the drawing i wanted to put how the blue oni pointed the goodness, yet the red oni being denial by showing the mirror. most of us know mirror reflects true self in some fantasy movies. the reflection pointed how someone's that being too 'good' that only fulfill other else, toss aside oneself, and not expressing the genuine self. As for the torn ribbons on the horns, it shows getting lost and stranded somewhere. meandering aimlessly with people scoffed you. owh i wanted the the blue gem shows not only the goodness of red oni, but going through her feelings. being tought always isn't easy peasy. it sacrifices, pricks, abolish your inner self a lot, when you can't just shed the tears out either..
(owh anyway i love painting deer horns, or the ones represents tree brancehs hehe). The flowers were enclosed by the horns as represented her thoughts, or what she perceived about herself from people. Peonies flower can represent passive-aggresive anger, and shame. (owh wait, i thought it represented "disdain" also. i think i misread with other flowers hiks.... shh i should have painted yellow carnation flowers instead).
speaking of which... i miss wowaka-p... i got to love hitorie songs not long after his death. when i hear his songs, i keep thinking, "owh... he isn't here anymore..." and wonder how is he on above there his song arrangements are unique and amazing, and his vocal expressions too.. fuyu-no is one of my fav. And i feel it relates to the art in some ways
Finally it's finished Ω©(ΛαΛ*)Ω Aha aww my first wakasigihime art
Actually this was kinda supposed to be art therapy/art healing/such, which meant i was supposed to draw exactly the body sense i felt at the moment. But it didn't turn out exactly as how i imagined, so yeah, let's just say the art inspired by my emotions.
When i immersed on self-awareness during the woeful moment. The more i brooded, the more i felt like the feeling wasn't only just a flowing- stream of sadness, but also a marble plunged inside and echoed.
Tears and water β That's so renowned for a mermaid, which fits wakasigihime doesn't it.But i wanted to have a bit different concept. Then i recalled a SpongeBob eps where a clamshell squaled and it produced a pearl. Hence the art was made in clamshell concept.
I also wanted to say, that even if you're brimming with an abject sadness, it's just that you want to keep your inner intact and be able to plough on when the times come. (Anyway if you're a denial with stagy quotes, i can provide you a psychology theory regarding that)
γEven so, i have to work hard to the fullest to be 'good'γ
I need to say first that the art is derived for the geisha theme only. it still contains my own feelings& thoughts apart from the real meaning. (i'm afraid someone might fused it again haha).
A bit trivia. Geisha is traditional japanese entertainers. They're respected for holding intellectual while performing arts or entertain the clients. They are the art within themselves and they're renowned. Even so They have to undergo much discipline hence it's hard to become one. Anyway, apparently by "entertaining" other men doesn't mean being Geisha is part of prostitute. they even uphold the professions(even being Geisha all the time besides the off days or at home)
i was kinda inspired by a comic telling a girl who practiced to be Geisha. Tho the one becoming Geisha looked like facading herself in order to sate others, even if she's being graceful and proud of it. Yeah it's also a public secret when you hear "professional", it means to suppress your emotions. about the art itself, it was taken in exhibition. (the umbrellas look like the opening waha) the hair ornaments were made in plastic. plastic-> long lasting, emulating the real ones, not fragile, flexible. But also known to be pollutant. i don't know what's the exact formula, but there's one way that an appealing person one will be disliked by others for getting in their way. Especially if they are not cheeky nor charismatic.
The plastics ornaments show how flexible you are to mingle. But even so, something lies behind. Fromm is a psychologist whose theory based on Freedom essential. He stated about character orientations (=the way people interact with others based on their characters). There are 4 non-productive orientations, one of them called "Marketing". As how the name is, it means looking at relationships in terms of what they can gain from the exchange. When others want to have someone that bear particular characteristics, they can make it come true. yet they don't have indigenous purpose. It was like an empty vessel that need others to fill it (with standard, expectation, acknowledgement).
Still besides what meanings i have put on the art, there is a way to counter it. a famous geisha stated that "Geisha is like a flower, beautiful in her own way. Like a willow tree: Gracious, flexible, and strong". so you can still shine in your own way .w.
[Disclaimer] my art is NOT a Canon, this has nothing to do with Hina Nagashi commemoration. this is just celebration of Kagiyama Hina's Day. August 9th is day of Yakujinnsama (Kagiyama Hina)
γcast, cast away the misfortune. let everything float into the vessel. the sadness, the sufferring, the misfortune. i'll carry, so let it foaming, bursts in endearing ahh..... at least, in this soothing river, sing me a lullaby put me to sleep....γ
be glad i bring this, yes, for you fellas~ (para jomblo ngenes dan bucin2 yg hatinya lagi berbunga2) just later you'll see other arts back to my usual thoughts&style, hoho.
this is the 3rd times i painted in man PoV. some thoughts of mine are delivered already through the lyrics on the video. also, i guess you can deem on the title "Re:harmony" instead of "harmony". because within the relationship, we hum together endlessly. and keep being respawned. as how the lyrics goes on 01:54 - 02:12; how either someone's confusion overtake themselves, or losing a track to where they belong to. and the other one convinces the person.
"It seems fortune befell on us, master. let's wish for the blessed day onwards"
A reward for a friend for doing hardwork! He loves gardevoir, and i can see why She's so refined and gracious, isn't shee
It's been years i haven't played pokemon actually, but i sought on wiki and youtube to make the art component as fit to her (while adding additional from other sources haha)
a psychic pokemon, with the ability to see future and such. I think using a crystal ball is too mainstream. While maximizing her elegant, so i chose the tea reading. And how her power of that blasting pink circles and petals.
I know waters are in that shape, but i tried to make a form of number six. As well for the amount of the hallo/circles. i read a book of symbol and sign, number 6 represents "vision and acceptance"-> beauty,purity, high ideals, well-balanced, unselfish disposition.
Ah speaking of acceptance, it's remarkable how loyal she is for entrusting her life to protect the trainer (it sounds being so concerned and cared to the utmost) It must be adoring to have akin of person to stay by your side...
γIt's just another step of bunch of stepsγ
Evening for you, or morning in the other side. we have different times but at least when you see the rise, we see the dawn.
the path is getting darker, so you need a light. as so your life. it's led by hopes and dreams (and God, of course)w but well, sometimes you need to burn your dreams to be able to lead your way, be the fire and light. because you know it's impossible for all those to be granted, you're nothing. in a certain prayer, you can ask for guidance; the dreams to be blessed if it's good for the world affair and afterlife. put it away if it's bad and lead to the better ones.
you can interpret the crows in a way of the song ( as all of these ghosts of our own delusions). dreams are having an attractive fragrance to be taken away, right. or to be drunk and deluded by those dreams itself.
>"Are we the plaything of fiends, or merely the dreams" it's either you're being astrayed further, drifted in obscurity. or it's too good to be true. there was a time my close friend denounced me because i'm being played by God on stages and doesn't want to flee and have free wills. i don't hold dreams those ambitious, all i just know is that praying to God solely is the goal of life. that's. and it's not wrong at all.
if i can confide a bit of my problem. regarding the "plaything" , i felt like my emotions and ways being played by God on that time (but wait, wait, let me explain first). i prayed with the recitation, things went good so i thought "maybe this what God wants me to have". then in instance i was being shoved. so i was really confused which is the right or wrong to do. so i tried all ways to justify the prayer, i dig the roots and understand well the answers. so doesn't mean you have to think God toy you, it's just that you have to take detours to see things.
hello! this is my first time joining online competition ;-; i searched over DAM song lists and found ζ³γ²γγγγ song might suits on Youmu. based on Kafkafuura translation, i wanted to convey the deep lamention over the death one (through Youmu, since she's half ghost)
i know a karaoke should be fun & cheerful ambience but each time i heard my father sings a song, it feels like he gazed far away beyond the garden. so enjoy the ambience i made!
(No matter if you believe it or not, things are just like you see them, dressed as they are As long as youβre here, the reality from yesterday doesnβt matter much Under the sun, I felt like Iβve seen jumping and dancing fairies But even this illusion will melt someday in summer) -Someday In Summer // ιι³ζ³
this was totally inspired by that song, i reallyyy love it. hearing that as if Renko& Merry was in debate, i bet for the sceneries you could already imagine by hearing&reading the lyrics.
the song backsound sounds like Jazz, or cafe alike ( " w " ) there are houseware, birdie, snicker backsounds and that's really starstruckk!!!
i've read a MariRenko doujin, about where Merry existence is dissipated and Yukari said sth to Renko ,it;s like: "she is me, part of my power. one day she will come to where she is. it seems you're smitten with her, until thus day please take care of her on my behalf"
=> that's explain the yukari gap with close-eyelids on here, with flashy eyes of her. hence you don't know exactly if it's still Merry, or rather within Yukari conscious. the summer melts, the doodles starts coming out indicating the overlap within the reality and dream.
γthe snow rabbit melts at the end of winter the Sakura blooms on the first spring you, the one who has no beginning. me, the one who have no end. how's feel of shrink away, with the pains dissipate? how's feel of bloomings, with the buds of happiness? i want to know...γ
today is a special day. a very warm welcome for you, our guest. our menu is an Art with full of reminisces, we offer delicate spices including breathaking song of winter,peaceful&slow exhale. lastly, sadness.
the saigyouji tree, the sakura tree that never bloomed. now, at the winter, at least you'll see 'sakura' there. nevertheless, a cherry petal girl always stay by it side. her form sways the petal, harbouring to everyone's heart. is it really her form, or her soul? the smile too, feels so warm even in cold.
this is a Point of View of a Girl all in purple, that always see the history before her eyes, enclose it within her memories. an immense pink of petal that is good to be true.
"you don't need to feel the sorrow nor sadness if you forget everything" that's how she depicts her previous friend.
γIn the Cold of Winter, Gazing through the beauty of Aurora The cold of icy-breeze, the hot of milky-milk Let your VOYAGE harbouring through the dreamγ
