colored sketch of a zombie monster stepping forward, hunched, with a big grin with it's small set of arm folded gently before them while their longer arms hand to their side close up of that big smile and the many eyes in their strange face

These two images of Chinese train driver Han Junjia were taken less than 30 years apart.

Transformative change is possible when it is relentlessly pursued.

WIP of Velle lounging back. I got a chance to expand her design a bit. Got the flats done
Velle the chimera lounging. She is leaned back, holding herself up with her arms. One leg is laying on the ground while the other is propped up for balance, twisting her hips towards the viewer. As a chimera, she has golden fur on her arms and legs as well as a collar of it on her neck blending into her hair, and fingers tipped in cats claws; her eyes are those of a goat with wide oval pupils, her feet are hooved, and she has curling goat horns growing from her shoulder blades that wrap to the front framing her; finally she has a long tail that transitions from fur to scales and ends in a head like a snake, however open is splits into 4 flaps with a hole in the middle, has googly eyes on the top two. Finally she has two sets of breasts, the lower one slightly smaller. The expression on her face is seemingly curious/amused

Giant Leopard #Moths, Hypercompe scribonia, were frequent visitors to the bug light this year. What looks like black markings from a distance, is revealed to be a rich iridescent blue upon closer look. Some have spots, and some have rings.

A photo of a white arrowhead-shaped Giant Leopard Moth resting on a wood table. The moth has dark markings, some ring shaped, some spots, these marks look black from a distance but are a deep iridescent blue. A closeup of the head of a white Giant Leopard Moth taken low and from the front. The moth's slender antennae extend to the left and right of the frame, it's dome-like body rises above the head, the eyes tucked underneath are orange in this light. The body, is marked with dark iridescent blue spots and the legs and head also have some of these markings. A photo of an arrowhead-shaped giant leopard moth resting on a white sheet. Unlike the other moth in this post, the dark markings on this example are almost entirely ring shaped. A close up photo of the wing juncture of a Giant leopard moth. The wings themselves are marked with dark iridescent blue rings. The space between the wings is a long triangle filled with these blue scales. The area above the wing juncture is marked with irregular blue spots which shine intensely in this light.

another odd fish, but from a different locale. Fishermen of the area recommend bringing it an offering of some kind, should you like to not find your nets full of holes

Hi, I’m Ken. I’ve been off of social media for a couple years while working on my upcoming graphic novel. I’ll be posting regularly this year, including new comics and illustrations and some old stuff to get started. Below: self-portrait.

Boxing Day is about punching ppl, right? Squidmas certainly is! No one in charge at HHS has any business making medical decisions.
A marker, ink, and paint pen drawing of a giant angry orange squid wearing five black boxing gloves, holding a trans pride flag and squeezing a wrinkled, overtanned man wearing nothing but blue jeans in one tentacle. At the top, hand-lettering says “SQUIDMAS: THE RECKONING!!”. The squid’s head is decorated in the trans pride colours, they have red eyes with black pupils, and are baring their teeth in a snarl. A round sign by the long tentacle on the right says “Transphobe Slapper”, and the squid is holding a sign on the left that says “Denying Trans-Affirming care to kids is CHILD ABUSE!!”. Above the wrinkly guy is a sign that says “Man who plays in raw sewage closes DHHS support line for struggling Trans teens!”. Digitally inserted text at the bottom says “HHS.gov will deny federal funding for hospitals that provide ANY “sex-denying” (i.e., gender-affirming) care for teens. They claim “peer-reviewed studies” support them (they don’t). Denying children gender affirming care is evil.”.

A photo of a cicada shell clung onto mossy tree bark, angled diagonally. The shell is a reddish brown and transparent in some parts, you can see the green background shining through the eye, back and abdomen parts.
