Theo and Meecah were originally designed to be humans, Ted and Mika. Then they started to gradually transform into cats. And more cartoony, too. 🌞 I find it a little funny.

Anyone with a severe cat allergy: have you ever met a Siberian cat or do you own one and how’s that going? Do they really cause milder reactions? I know there’s no such a thing as truly hypoallergenic cats, but I’m desperate and lonely in my fortress of solitude. 🫠

Your mum unplugged your Nintendo and kicked you out to play in the rain. No way you’re letting her win and think you’re having fun. No siri. You’re having AWFUL time.

I used to play the accordion as a kid, but as I did with all my musical hobbies, I dropped it when it got too difficult :| it’s a pity, because it was a fun instrument. But Mac here did not stop! Good for Mac!

And then there was this one too. I haven’t finished any big (or small for that matter) pieces with actual humans in ages. Humans just aren’t as fun to draw as animals. Or as cute. Even the cutest guy isn’t nearly as cute as an average cat. 😩

The universal declaration of human rights start with: “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights” It’s not followed by buts or lists of exceptions. Let’s think about that for a moment.

My way of treating the inflammatory symptoms that reading the news has given me the last few weeks.

I’ve been down with the flu and lying in the bed starts to be boring af. So instead I lied in the bed and drew this. Took several naps in between. Day well spent.

Tove Janssonin päivän kunniaksi se on taas suomalaisen taiteen päivä! Oon Kai, Helsinkiläinen kuvittaja ja 2D-generalisti. Työskentelen leipätyönä animaatioalalla ja sivukeikkailen missä vain mua ja mun hassuja kuvia tarvitaan. Rakastan yksityiskohtia ja pieniä suuria tunteita! #OlenKuvittaja

Viimeinen työ on kiitoskortti, jonka pohjana käytin Rockwellin a Duck Flying with Books-kuvitusta. Se on osa samantyyppistä sarjaa. Yksityishenkilölle.

Finally my book project is moving to illustrations. I’ve been writing it for so long (considering it’s not that long of a story), I’ve had days when I felt like it won’t get finished before I decompose.

Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.

I’ve been on a holiday this week, which I’ve spent working on my own pieces and checking out some horror game let’s plays. 🤣 I watched Dead Signal VODs while working on this. Eepy kitties. No worries in the world.
