Fernanda Suarez created this digital painting of Harth Stonebrew, likely in the 21st century. The artist’s meticulous painting technique gives the impression of a realistic scene, yet the composition relies heavily on fantasy and character design elements. Notably, Suarez includes details of what we might call ‘lived craft’. Take the leather jerkin and belt, denim jeans, and the character’s intricate hairstyle. All of these speak to human labor, skill, and a personal touch in a world that feels increasingly mass-produced. The tattoos, too, are a kind of handicraft; they suggest the time and pain involved in their application. The artist is making a point about value here. In an era dominated by digital production, she invites us to consider the artistry that persists in everyday life. It's a celebration of the handmade, even within a digital medium.
