Bustle arrived!!! Did a test fit with the rest of the skirt and realized I needed a butt-pillow. Don’t have one so we improvised with a throw pillow and some safety pins 🤣

Turns out I did miss something when I moving stuff over onto my external to then move onto the new SSD after the upgrade. Guess I gotta go find all my brushes and assets again 😭 At least I did back up the one pencil brush I've been using religiously but forgot the original maker of.

The fam finally settled on a theme for our Mardi Gras costumes. Which means I’ve spent today looking for a mask. I’ve seen so many pretty masks but none are what I need. And the ones that are the right shape just don’t fit my face 😭

Happy Valentine's Day! Take today to spend time with friends and loved ones, or treat yourself to your favorite food and activities, if you can. And have a sketch of a couple lovebirds with modern AU Sol and Zel. #ocsky #arttag #valentinesart

I use Talespire a lot for DMing. And boy crumbling walls take a looooong time 🥲 So close to done though. So close.

#WIP from today! Decided to use this sketch to explore what Sol and Zel would look like as a pair of modern humans. still have some work to do but it's coming along nicely

And streaming time! Working on something shamelessly cute because we all need a little joy in our lives. twitch.tv/avianfae

Just doing a little set up work for something I'm planning to work on, on stream this week.

I was just made aware of a SIM modder that is using my artwork in one of their for profit mod packs. They are known as Lady Moriel on tumblr and Patreon and they are stealing artwork and profiting from it. Patreon: patreon.com/moriel?utm_m... Tumblr: lady-moriel.tumblr.com/post/7552741...

Quick study/draw over of a photograph of Reina, a jaguar at the local zoo. The photo itself reminds me of the displacer beast companion in one of the campaigns I'm in (who also shares a name with my actual cat), Mouse. Photo by one of the senior keeper's, Grace (no last name given 😔) #sketch

Bumping this again, as there’s still hours before the vote is scheduled! Make your voice heard, no matter who your senators are

Ok, all - two things. Speaker Johnson praised Musk's slow moving coup this morning (per CNN/this interview w/ Rep. Garcia), so you know what we should all do? Call his office and raise absolute hell: 202-225-4000 Will it do much? Most likely not. But he needs to absolutely hear from us.

If you are protesting today🧵 -STAY PEACEFUL AND CALM. -Wear a mask or bandana, preferably N95, for safety and face tracking. -Remove FaceID/fingerprint from your phone. 6+ digit passcode only. -Bring swim goggles in case of pepper spray / tear gas. -Photograph / film any aggression or violence.

Oh damn I haven't shilled for my brother's leatherworking business on Bluesky yet-- he's got an array of wallet designs, both brainrotted and timeless, pilot logbook/sketchbook covers, keychains, bags, and dice cups that will last you literally forever (guarantee till end of time). Link will follow

Getting a bit in my feelings with the #Leopards.

"To the Edge and Back" Inspired by key words Kindness & Resilience. Sometimes the waterfall is but a trickle, and other times a raging torrent that tries to pull us over, but we hold on. This strength can create a place of safety, to exchange a kindness and breathe. #watercolor #gouache #acrylic

One of my favorite parts of my day job is catering. But god I hate dealing with event organizers 🤣 fastest way to learn that absolutely no one knows what they’re doing. Also never, ever, believe an event organizer when they say they’ll have x for you. Odds are high they won’t or it’s the wrong thing

#DnDOutofContext Ah the joys of dating a shapeshifter.

And finished! The last character picked is Double Trouble, one of several characters I received in dms. Picked them because I both love She-ra and because I wanted to add another non-anime character. I had a blast, thank you to everyone who sent suggestions! #sixfanartschallenge #artchallenge

I was a touch delayed because my computer needed all of the updates, but I'm now live with the final part of the Six Fanarts Challenge! twitch.tv/avianfae

All done for today! Here's a couple #wip screenshots from the stream. This pattern in the background is going to be the death of me. There's a vision, I promise, but right now it's a right mess.

It's stream time! twitch.tv/avianfae

there was a mouse living in the oven mitt on our porch 🍂

If you haven't played Echoes of Wisdom yet and have access to the og Legend of Zelda I /highly/ recommend playing a little bit of the original first. Like get through the first dungeon. It's so very weird and interesting to play the two side by side. There are so many references to the original.

Before I disappear, I'm dropping some shop links again! My instinct is to apologize that I'm actually promoting them now, but you know. lol EMPLOYMENT DRAMA. The shop is helping us get through. 💓 So are RAINBOWS. We still have a few more of these left! thebrokencircle.etsy.com/listing/1826...

Not going to be able to finish this, this week because of all the stuff going on after the snow storm. Not abandoned, just delayed to when I have some free time (hopefully next week) Please feel free to keep dropping suggestions. I'm reading them and considering them all.

"What do you think is one of the most unexpected aspects of being a full-time artist?" The amount of non-art related things required to maintain doing this full-time. Managing profiles, websites, links, socials, shops, bookkeeping, advertising, customer service, contracts, endless emails, etc.

Found some old clothes and outfitted a snowy friend. We lack snow shovels so removing the snow is a slow process 🤣 mig her as well make it fun

Sometimes I make angry comics too

A lot of the actionable advice here for American trans creators really stuck out to me, particularly the warning that we need to stop heavily relying on cloud storage for harboring our works, because those are platforms to which trans folks' access could be rescinded at any time.

GOOD GOD Y'ALL
