About SylphMoon
Hello!
I’m Roni and I’m the artist behind SylphMoon Art.
I create fantasy illustrations and paintings that are a showcase of my own world. A lot of the inspiration for my work comes from myth, history, and nature. Incorporating moths, mushrooms, and carnivorous plants into these themes has always been enjoyable to me.
I began drawing very young and often only had access to pencils, ballpoint pens, and cheap paper. This limitation cultivated a love of grayscale and black and white art.
Growing up I really loved a lot of storybook art from fairy tales. I took a lot of inspiration from the artwork in the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark series as I was learning to draw more detailed images. This is when I also started to write and draw my own stories.
As a teen I became obsessed with manga in large part due to it being all black and white. I have a lifelong love of CLAMP series artwork and all of the artstyles that the team created.
As as young adult I obtained my associate’s degree in Interactive Media Design and while I do not currently work in the field I incorporate so many of the design principles I learned in my work. Currently I work during the day and create art at night when I’m not playing with my cat.
I have been uploading timelapse drawing videos to my YouTube to share my creation process.
