Sarah & Duck: This is a British kids' cartoon with a relatively simple, super cute art style and character designs: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3070014/mediaindex/?ref_=tt_mi_sm
Likes: Character studies; Formal portraits; Candid "snapshots"; Depiction of actual or missing scenes; In-universe artifacts (eg, drawings made by a character - Sarah and Duck are both very artistic!)

Fandom and character(s):
Circle: Two Worlds Connected--Lee Ho Soo and Kim Woo Jin
The Flame's Daughter--Any (Anye Luo, Dao Liexiang, Lei Jinghong, Yu Zihan)
Mr. Sunshine--Eugene Choi
My Country the New Age--Nam Seon Ho

Prompts:
In general, I like limited palettes, jewel tones, black and white, bold colors. I like period clothing a lot. If you're doing shippy art (I ship Seon Ho and Eugene with basically anyone; for the other fandoms, I have ship options in my letter), I like couples kissing or about to kiss, dancing together, fighting each other or fighting at each other's side, or just sitting around together talking. If you want to draw a solo character, I love whumpy or angsty art, or characters looking lonely or contemplative. All of these fandoms are live action dramas, so if you want to redraw a screencap or a typical scene from the drama, that could also be fun.

Any kind of art is amazing and will make me happy! For fandoms where I requested more than one character, art of a single character is totally cool. My letter has general/fic prompts, if you find those useful.

ART LIKES
-I usually prefer jewel tones over pastels, if the artwork has color.
-long beautiful hair on both men and women
-clothing/drapes/textiles with interesting patterns
-hair and clothing swirling dramatically in the wind
-nature/seasonal elements (e.g. green or autumn leaves, rain, snow)
-foliage and flowers
-decorative borders
-birds
-swords
-people in armor or wielding weapons
-one character defending another or characters fighting back-to-back
-characters practice-fighting or sparring with each other
-people playing musical instruments
-characters wearing jewelry
-dramatic scenes
-scenes that show an emotion
-uniforms
-physical expressions of fealty such as kneeling and hand-kissing
-characters playing with or touching each other's hair (especially long hair)
-art that looks like stained glass
-art based on ancient Greek or Roman styles
-art that looks pre-Raphaelite
-art deco style
-it could be interesting to see an art style that reflects where and when the fandom is set

I enjoy a wide variety of things in art: sketches or portraits of the characters, scenes from canon, gapfillers for things that could have happened in canon, art that's serious/tragic, art that is heartwarming, art that makes me laugh, art that's symbolic rather than showing a particular scene. For any ship I mentioned liking, please take it as given that anything with the two of them looking affectionate/hugging/snuggling/kissing/making out is awesome and will make me happy, regardless of what else I prompted.

Art-Specific DNWs:

-NSFW art
-anything very gory
-zombies or gross-looking corpses
-pregnancy
-spiders/insects/centipedes

The DNWs from my letter also apply, if they're applicable to art.

No need to include all requested characters for any fandom!
* Ghosts (TV 2019) - Mary
* The Hour (TV) - Bel Rowley, Freddie Lyon, Lix Storm
* The Young Offenders (TV) - Conor MacSweeney, Jock O'Keefe
Prompts:
I will appreciate literally any style. Any media (any traditional, digital, mixed..), limited colour palettes, monochrome, attention to clothes, hidden details, busy backgrounds, in-universe art, text mixed in with art, nature.
Anything social media related, slightly fancier outfits than usual for characters (for varying definitions of fancy), quiet scenes, cosy rooms. More likes/prompt in letter!
