Hey guys! How's everyone doing?
Today I want to show you the next portrait I created for the **Ennéa Arcana** collection... the same one I've been telling you about all this time.
*Everything grows in her silence. Gaïa doesn’t speak, but whatever she touches blooms. Her skin holds roots, bark, and a whisper of origin.*
After the first four portraits I shared... the Sun, the Moon, the Water, and the Stars... the next ones followed. This time, it was **Earth**, represented by **Gaia**, the symbol of Nature.

Actually, this is probably the third or fourth time I've drawn Gaia... and honestly, I really love what she represents. I enjoy everything she stands for, so every time I draw or try to capture her essence in one of my pieces... it’s a real joy.
As you know, I usually take screenshots or clips from the videos I record while working... and this time was no different. I streamed the process on **Arena**. By the way, I’ve been off Arena for a few days... haven’t streamed lately... but this one was recorded, and I really enjoyed that moment.
I’ve taken a few video clips... little captures that give you a rough idea of the process. It’s not an exact step-by-step... but it gives you a glimpse into how it came to life.
To create this piece, I used the Moon portrait as a base... just like I usually do... because it’s got a clear structure and it’s pretty easy for me to adapt. Unlike the Water portrait, which is more blue-toned... or the Sun, with a totally different palette... the Moon gives me a flexible base to work from.
I adjusted the colors and added some filters here and there... until I found the tone I needed to reflect Gaia... her earth, her trees… her essence. It didn’t happen all at once. I made quite a few changes along the way... until I finally landed on what I was aiming for.
In her hair, I added waterfalls... vines... trees... hanging greenery... elements that reflect Gaia’s connection with life and nature.
I think the result is a pretty decent portrait. It’s actually quite different from what I usually do... and that’s a good thing. It pushed me out of my comfort zone a bit... and that helps me grow.
And the best part is... I really enjoyed making it.
