Happy #PrideMonth! β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œ Have a doodle of some queer Werewolf-Elves. #oc #digitalart 🎨🦎

No, brain - "quick silly doodle" is not an option for that particular OC. #artistproblems

At the start of the month, i've heard about the #mermay thing. And i thought "Hey, good opportunity to try a ride on a hype thing for once". And to troll a fair bit, of course. Behold my half-fish, half-woman creature ! #mermaid #magikarp

Been a while - but I managed to finish another #MerMay piece before the month ends. Behold, Feng as a mermaid! I did consider painting her in beast form again, but a wolf-headed mermaid felt like overkill. Plus, imagine painting long fur underwater... πŸ˜… #oce #OCart #digitalart #digitalpainting 🎨🦎

Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

WE HAVE A COVER! This is the final cover for my upcoming book "Becoming an Artist" and I'm SO excited to share it with my friends (all of you)! The book is ready for pre-order and I MUST get as many pre-orders as possible as it really helps the publisher know how many books to print. 1/4

Did u know? There's always an alternative to using chemicals & poisons in your garden. My slugs & snails have taken a liking to my Nasturtiums, so I've wrapped the pots in organic packing wool from Wool Cool. It's been washed of all those nasties. I love it....but the slugs & snails don't. πŸ˜πŸŒΏπŸŒ±πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸŒ±πŸͺ²πŸŒπŸŒ

Slow starts. #grickledoodle #witch #wizard #magic #coffee #cartoon #art #drawing #funny

Another silly doodle of one of my Werewolf-Elf OCs! Feng in a sauna, as requested by @justalka.bsky.social. There's not much Air wielding can do when there's nowhere else for the hot air to go. But at least her Fog powers still work... #oc #ocart #drawing 🎨🦎

Just a reminder… #booksky

This is the Groove-billed Ani (Crotophaga sulcirostris), and it's just straight up a dinosaur. Like, I know *all* birds are technically avian dinosaurs, but my first thought looking at this guy is: dinosaur. (πŸ“·: Suzie McCann, eBird)

Oof. As much as I love K.I.T.T., Data, and R2-D2... I can't imagine having only them around me. And that is with the generous assumption that real-world AI could ever reach their level. But no surprise, Facebook tried to teach us that 500 internet contacts were better than 3-4 actual friends.

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm! For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste) Need to find your representatives? Here you go: 5calls.org

I saw another sword so I’m posting.

One of the coolest things to remember is that because prey animals have eyes on the side of their head, they are looking at you when they're in profile, not facing you! Hot tip for artists and animal lovers!

I happened to hear a song this morning that featured a certain combination of words. And it occurred to me that they fit nicely for my pack leader. So I had to doodle this. #ocart #oc #drawing 🎨🦎

It just occurred to me why I spend so much time idealizing the relationships among my Werewolf-Elves. Because art is a way to create the world that we want to see - not to replicate what already exists. #writersky #writing #writerslife 1/9 ‡️

This week's #MerMay artwork is finished - a mer-ified version of Lex Herabur, the mad scientist in my pack of Werewolf-Elves. #oc #ocart #digitalart #digitalpainting
