follow the leader
Onion Pendergrass, teen protagonist of the comic Blue Hollow, walks uphill in the woods in strip of light. Tombstones dot the hill as he goes past. Behind him in the shadows of the woods, many different ghosts and cryptids follow him along, including known monsters such as the wampus cat, the rake, the squonk, tree people, and some canon-original creatures. Everything supernatural is cast in a green fog, though Onion's path is warm brown.

#artvsartist2025 found myself gravitating toward dark palettes to match a dark year—but hopefully there’s a light at the end of the tunnel! wishing everyone a better and brighter 2026 🫂⭐️🌟💫

Here is my obligatory end-of-the-year tiled fave art thing 👻

#artvsartist2025 #humanartist #humanartists #artvsartist
An image of a tiled square with 8 of my favorite artwork I drew throughout 2025, and in the center is a mirror selfie of me with my eyes closed and headphones one.

Floral scent
#art ✧ #painting ✧ #skunk
Acrylic marker painting of a stylized skunk on a light orange background. The skunk is running to the right, holding its head up. The large tail is curled over the back. There are purplish blue flowers around the animal, some of them growing in front of it and some behind it. They have a light blue middle and some yellow details inside. On the orange background there are some cloud shaped yellow details, barely visible.

Every artist, get more self indulgent NOW! Draw your ships kissing, draw your blorbos, draw that idea you’ve been putting off (you’re good enough to do it!!!), redraw that old art, draw yourself wearing a cool outfit, draw a better world- just draw!!!

Wishing you warmth, peace, and so much love this holiday season ❤️
Illustration depicting a bunny and a calico cat sitting next to each other on a log admist a snowy landscape inside a giant snow globe adorned with a ribbon. Both the bunny and the cat are wearing scarves, plus the cat is sipping on a hot beverage. The snow is falling around them. The text above the snow globe says: Happy Holidays.
