"Yup, there's your problem. You've mistaken arbitrary norms specific to your social group for sacred immutable truths and it has driven you insane."

"(=･ω･=)" cats from the incredible Alberto Exposito workshop! really fun exercise we did and i benefited from some great feedback from Alberto on my initial sketch to get these fellas. #ipadprocreate #characterdesign

just a little digital plein air painting in between other things i've been working on. ☁️💙 #pleinairapril #ipadprocreate

"the type of weather you can smell", my friend said from across the table. one of my favorite spots in Bucharest. really liked the mood of a stormy april evening combined with a cozy, colorful interior. #procreate #ipadprocreate #digitalpleinair

wish i could be as good at headology as ✨ her ✨ Granny Weatherwax & You in #Blender3D #BlenderNPR #Blender

alright i've been inspired!! here's a WIP of Granny W 👀🧙‍♀️ #Blender #Blender3D #BlenderNPR

thank you so SO much to everyone for the love on this!! i think i’m going to continue the project with Granny Weatherwax & Magrat 💖🧙‍♀️ also big big thanks to Alberto Exposito for his guidance on this design! i’m taking his class and that’s where this Nanny Ogg took shape.

the cool part about being an artist is that the process of making art in any form is truly smthng beneficial for mental health. would love to see more ppl engaging w/ crafts&art in a handson way instead of playing around w/ genAI. i really think they'd get more bang for their buck. #starterpacknoai

Backpack Battles is so fun to play. made a little fanart of the gals during a grocery run. 🛒🥗🧾 also my first time using CSP for an illustration from start to finish. ৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻) #clipstudiopaint #csp #backpackbattles #fanart

i need someone from Obsidian to confirm that i'm not crazy: Lembur is heavily inspired by Romanian, right? and the Pargrunen all have Romanian sounding names like Doru, Cosmina, etc. i can't find it written down ANYWHERE 😤 #avowed

feels like the world is on fire and the challenges have not been lacking in my own personal life either in the past few weeks. i don't know what to do other than persist though. make art, make games, find community and hope for the best. 🥹

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

Hello bear fans! Wanted know that we're cooking a little hoodie action with Makeship this time around! Check it bear.game/hoodie

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

i love @weirdmedieval.bsky.social

Let's go get some seashells💙

last sunny autumn days. 🍂˚ ༘ ೀ⋆｡˚☕️

going in for my post-treatment CT scan today, all fingers and toes crossed for me if u can folks! 🙃🙃

My comfort zone: Tiny fantasy people, preferably with big backpacks.

they're waiting for their first customer of the day 🥺✨🥐

Shits and giggles aside folks... Please note, I'm firmly against generative AI and its impact on the creative industries and the climate. If that's your bag, then please give me a wide berth 👍

I am here

deeply resent that AI features keep trying to claim the ✨ emoji as their symbol. that one's mine. those are MY sparkles

matt mercer is an amazing voice actor (amongst other things ofc) and he has really good range but i’ve listened to HUNDREDS of hrs of crit role so now in dragon age veilguard i can immediately tell what NPC he voices with alarming accuracy

took a class about color and composition with the very talented and super fun Justine Thibault a few weekends ago that changed my brain chemistry. this is a little wip that started as homework for the workshop but i've been trying to channel all the info i absorbed into a more refined image.

God grant me the serenity to accept I am cooked, The courage to say fuck it we ball, And the wisdom to know when we are so back
