my ko-fi acts as my main art account, I post literally everything there from WIPs to finished work very frequently. if you follow me for my work you are seriously missing out

I try to keep as much public as possible, I only paywall story spoiler stuff, so you can give it a follow to keep track
Bocchama is eating again and has the energy to want to play. my boy is okay.

give this bollard an award
Street Art - Ireland

A roadside vertical post aka bollard painted as a blue octopus with tentacles extending across the pavement, using the curb and cobbles to suggest movement. I love the use of multiple colors and the eyes & brows are wonderful!! 😁

sure sex is great but have you ever supported your artist friends during the holidays by buying their lovely work?

I feel like I can finally decompress from the past couple of days. Here's to getting back to drawing tomorrow.

caught a glimpse at the "performative reading" discourse and idk what it says about people that seeing someone read makes them think "ugh they're doing this to show off at me"

even if that were true the fact they are threatened by the SIGHT of someone reading is such a humiliating self-own

X-rays: nothing major, slightly enlarged liver

Bloodwork: elevated white cells and elevated levels with stuff of the liver

Confirmed he def ingested something poisonous and fighting off infection

Anyway had to spend another $1.2K, so bocchama funding help below:

bsky.app/profile/arto...
the vet bill is close to $1K, which isn't something I can personally afford but also didn't hesitate at all to pay.

still if anyone is willing to help pitch in for Bocchama, my ko-fi is here

Bocchama got into something toxic and Chira really needs help paying these sudden and unexpected emergency vet bills she's had to take on to save his life & keep him pain free while he recovers. He's the most beautiful, goodest boy around. If you can, please considering helping her pay for his care!

No, using AI generated stuff as a "placeholder" on your crowdfunding campaign is not OK either.

If the visuals are THAT important to getting your project funded, then you need to pay a person up front for those key visuals and deliver a consistent end product to your backers.

Spent the afternoon at the vet... bocchama suddenly started being lethargic and in pain after his walk. It was so acute I rushed him over. They got him sedated for blood work and IV bag.

They're think poisoning, but idk. He doesn't eat anything from the ground but he maybe sniffed something in.

This is exactly correct.
Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

Everything in animation, from the roughest sketch, to the beautiful backgrounds, is done with intention. People pour the tears from their minds eye into each frame, and I can't express how much every part of it is human experience. It is layers upon layers upon layers of choices and interpretations.
Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️

Artists create universes from nothing.

Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

It is not unreasonable to want better from your country and politicians, nor is it unreasonable to demand it. Those fuckers owe you their prosperity, and give the smallest scraps they can manage, if that, as a thank you

i honestly think that to be a politician your salary is mandated to be the minimum wage. they aren't allowed to to live in luxury unless their people are.

These 8 Senators sold us out to Trump:
Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.
