+1 Inspiration:

Hubby and I played Tea Dragon Society yesterday for a fun snow day event, and now I want to draw #dragons again!

Anyone know who the artist(s) was behind that and if they got a Bluesky account? 👀

Hi artist reading this! Go wash your face. Eat a banana (or other fruit). Do some hand stretches! Or neck stretches! Drink some water, or make some tea if it’s cold outside. Have you gotten any fresh air into your space today? Or looked at anything other than a screen?
Please take care. Love you :)

My day job is in a pet store in Massachusetts, and let me just tell you? The people purchasing new aquariums ahead of #snowmageddon2026, fish and all, are much braver than I! 😳

Sketchy sketch of my latest dnd character! 🩷

She had a little too much to drink at a party and work up the next day with mysterious warlock powers — how will she maintain her studies and keep these newfound powers from her prestigious parents and university?
A pencil sketch of a original character for dungeons & dragons; a tiefling with a club tail, hooves, short horns, a wolf-cut style haircut, and lamb-like ears; the character is wearing a short skirt, leg warmers, shirt with frilly off-shoulder sleeves, and academic robes; she is making a heart sign and winking; text reads “Nettle Wyrmwort,” “wolf cut,” “academic uniform,” “frilly + cute!,” and “leg warmers”

Ah yes, the familiar experience of mourning the end of a book 😔

Thinking about doing an illustrative read-list of all the books I've read by the end of the year :DD Idk what that would look like yet, but thinking about it helps cure the sorrows of finishing a good book

A WIP sketchy sketch of my current DND character and obsession: Yvon Summerwood

#dndcharacter | #characterart | #sketch | #drawingpractice
A rough, messy sketch of a DND character with a bothered/annoyed expression; the character has a messy bun, pointy halfling ears, and a big scar on her face; she wears mercenary-esc gear with layers of leather armor and fabric; a dark-colored cloak adorns her shoulder and back; across the front of her body hangs a single drum; next to her are some miscellaneous gear that include a bottle of dust with a fae aesthetic and a rapier with a dragon's head and draconic aestetic; there's words written next to the sketch saying "ugh body hard," "busts are SO much easier," and "lol i forgor drum"

Drawing other people's characters: Fun! Simple! A good time

Drawing my own characters: Ew. Bad. Why can't I get this to look right?

Traditional art - a picture done in watercolor and colored pencil, showing a cute, colorful pigeon with exaggerated feet, walking very fabulously. There’s sparkles all around it.

Welp. Here we go!

#crochetfail | #crochet | #artjournal | #warmupsketch
A page out of an art journal for 03/13; at the top is a doodle of a crochet hook with the text next to it reading "Today I finished my first crochet garment project!!;" beneath the text are three panels: the first is of myself in a happy expression saying "I finished my glove!," the second is of myself holding up my gloved hand, and the third is of myself in an embarrassed expression saying "Dang it.;" beneath the panels is the text "It did not turn out right. Jesse said it looks like an anime glove ... With fire coming out of it.;" next to this text is a panel with a generic anime character with spiky red hair in a determined expression punching with their right fist, which has the glove on it with fire coming out of the bottom and the word "POW!!" above it; in small text beneath the drawing is the words "it was kinda funny!!;" in all the glove drawings, the glove is a fairly normal wrist warmer with holes for thumbs and fingers, but the bottom of the glove funnels outward like a gauntlet or, in my husband's eyes, an anime punching glove; the cuppa counter is marked at 1 A picture of a homemade glove; the pattern utilizes star stitches for a whimsical effect; the glove is fairly normal-looking, with holes for the thumb and fingers, but it starts to funnel outward at the wrist at a slight angle that makes it look oversized A picture of a homemade glove at a different angle to emphasize the now extreme angle the pattern funnels out from the wrist
