Unfortunately my animal brain relies on little treats to motivate myself on a daily basis. Also the only thing that will get me out of the house at 8:30am. I now have cruffins.

Maybe if I keep posting my Silksong fan art it will come out sooner πŸ‘€ #silksong #hollowknight #illustration #fanart

Super neat!

Looking to hire a freelance artist for a small personal project. Have about a month. Anyone have any recommendations?

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your CV? Me, a developer of story-focused indie games: That's narrative breathing space.

It's always a good day when my clients send me a physical copy of their book. #middlegrade #kidlitart #kidlit #bookcovers

artists and writers should be co creators on more projects

The problems in our society are not caused by migrants or refugees. They are caused by an economic system rigged in favour of corporations and billionaires. If the government wanted to improve people’s lives, it would tax the rich and build an economy that works for us all.

As someone who is still going through this system, I can tell you there's NOTHING easy about it, both mentally and financially. This is affecting everyone actively contributing to this economy, but apparently "genuinely contributing" just means being an "AI expert" or being rich, what a jokeπŸ™„

Continuing the Crow Country 1st birthday celebrations, we just released the full game & demo on @itch.io, with a 25% launch discount for the first week! Both DRM-free πŸ¦β€β¬› sfbgames.itch.io/crow-country

Throwback to this cover for Ghost Stories! I channelled all of my Goosebumps influences to create this spooky middle grade cover! #bookcovers #kidlitart #kidlit #middlegrade #coverartist

Illustration for The Charms of Freedom! Loved designing this solarpunk inspired town. I hadn't done anything solarpunk before, but I had a lot of fun doing it! #art #bookcoverart #YAFantasy

Good morning, Bluesky.

Happy MONTH OF MAE to all who celebrate πŸ–€ #nitw

Every day as an illustrator is a humbling experience as I realize that I can't draw something that I've seen thousands of times.

It boils my piss that the news stories are continuously 'are we over-diagnosing mental health problems?' rather than 'oh my God what have we DONE to ourselves that SO many people are SO profoundly unhappy and anxious and unwell?'

I knew I would love Blue Prince, but I didn't expect it to fully consume my entire existence for the past 29h. What a game!

Probably two of my favorite characters that I've drawn recently! From Theodore Bearkins Lost His Blue Sunglasses #kidlitart #kidlit

We need more documentaries like Double Fine's PsychOdyssey, especially in these current times. Seeing how much thought goes into the making of a game is not only inspiring, but really shows how much the creative industry is needed VS whatever crap they're trying to replace us with.

Happy Monday! Sharing this illustration for the cover of Bigfoot is a Jerk by J. Ditchburn Patton! Super fun spooky vibes. #kidlitart #canlit #middlegrade #illustration

Reminder that if you don't think today's young people should get support for mental health disabilities because you didn't get that at their age and "it never did me any harm", your lack of empathy suggests that it did do you quite a lot of harm, actually.

For any Canadian artists that would like to be included just comment and I’ll get you added πŸ’›βœ¨ #CanArtist go.bsky.app/5Qisn5N

I'm a very simple woman: I see cat, I pet cat

An illustration for a mock cover that I did about a year ago when I took a mentorship with Lissy Marlin. I learned so much during the process and I still apply so much of what I've learned to my daily work! #middlegrade #bookcover #coverartist #kidlit #kidlitart
