This year I want do daily sketches/doodles. At least aim for a few times a week. If it works out, hopefully we'll get to see them in batches!

I'm hoping this will help against feeling down or stagnant, plus it'll help out with keeping my art more consistent and more than likely, help it grow!

I made a Mr. Mew dress up game back in 2020 called Mewse Designer!

meiker.io/play/14135/o...

There are no direct spoilers but there are accessories & "props" taken major characters in the TWEWY series, as well as some original & OC items! Mild & Wild Mews were prototypes! #TWEWY #NTWEWY #MrMew

Mood.

Father is actually really good with cats, but today the mood is “No.” From 2022/11/24. #OCFather #Art #SalOCs #TWEWYOC #OC #Cat #Kitten
Digital art of Father imagining himself holding a kitten with one hand against his chest. But his dreams vanish as the kitten runs away saying "MWAARRR". Tears form in the corner of his eyes.

What a soft looking Father! We've gotten to see soft Fathers from time to time in my art but this feels like the kindest ones I've drawn.

This is art from my WIP VN, Chronicles of a Professional Father.
#CoaPF #OCFather #Art #SalOCs #TWEWYOC #OCSky
Digital art of my OC, Father, at a 3/4 angle and from the shoulders up looking kindly and expectantly at the viewer. There are abstract building shapes behind him with a pale blue sky. There is a black scribble border with a heart cut out in the top left hand corner.

Friendly reminder that Congress had enough phone calls coming in last February that it was actively causing the phone system to crash and they had to progressively work to upgrade it over several nights to ensure it could handle the call volume.

If enough people call, it disrupts the system.

I'm seeing a lot of posts to call your reps but little on actually how. 5calls.org is a great site where you can put in your zip code and get numbers for your house representative and two senators. You also can get a script if you're like me and stumble over your thoughts.

friendly reminder to not post anything that will get feds knocking on your door and putting you on no-fly lists, no matter how upset you are about injustices. it doesn't matter that you're not serious and it doesn't matter if you append "in Minecraft". be careful with what you say, here or anywhere

Wanting to fit into society by *checks notes* having a clean desk

A split-panel comic. On the left, under the heading “People’s opinions,” a stern-looking person points a finger and says, “Don’t take meds just to fit in and be more productive!” The background is blue. On the right, under the heading “My reality,” a cheerful character with cat-like features happily wipes a desk, with sparkles around them, saying, “Hehe, I can finally clean my desk!” The background is warm and glowing. The comic contrasts public judgment about ADHD medication with the personal relief it can bring.

Comforts for Mother

Mother's research about the State of Things can put her into quite a down mood. Father will try to cheer her up, even for a moment.
#TWEWY #OCFather #OCMother #Comic #SalOCs #TWEWYOC #OC
Panel 1 of 4 of a digital comic of a woman leaning against the side of a window, called Mother, with a red tint. Panel 2 of 4 of a digital comic. An orange patched coat appears on Mother's shoulders and the red tint disappears as she looks down at it. Page 3 of 4 of a digital comic. Mother looks across to a man with long blond hair, called Father, sitting on a couch across from her. Father is wearing Mother's suit jacket and her tie is chaotically woven into his braided hair. He asks her, "Yes...?" Page 4 of 4 of a digital comic. Mother smiles sadly, clasping his coat tighter around her. The red tint appears again.

There was once a Composer called - [NULL]

From 2023-10-22.
#TWEWY #TWEWYSpoilers #NTWEWY #NTWEWYSpoilers
Art of an old wooden building with a group of people as Souls walk in front of it. In the middle, there is one wearing a dark coat and long scarf. There have white angel wings coming of of their back, with an aura pulsing out from around them. The following text is in front of it: "There was once a Composer who spent most of their time in the lower planes. There were benefits of having these Souls being frequently exposed to the Composer. They become stronger. More resilient. More aligned to Us. The quality of Ascended Souls were higher than any other region." Art of dark glowing figure holding themselves in pain with glowing eyes. White, black, and rainbow fractured lines come out from their back where their scarf is ripped out from their back. In front, the text says: "However, the Composer was blindsided by their fascination with their Reapers & Humans. So confident in themself. Believed no one would actually oppose them. That a faction of Reapers would be able to catch them off guard, who ere taught details of the planes and the Composer's abilities. The attack was swift and precise." Art of a child soul reaching up in fear as they fall into a purple and black void. The text in front says. "The attacking Reapers were immediately Erased. The remaining Reapers patched the fracturing lower planes. They saved what Souls they could. But some were lost forever between the planes. Eventually, help arrived from above." A cut to Father, from nose down to upper shoulders, says, "Foolish, don't you think? To be blindsided by you own arrogance. By those you didn't actually trust. And now you know why, Joshua, why the Composer must stay safe. Why your identity is closely guarded. Why we have these rules." Father and Joshua are standing on a balcony. Father is leaning forward on the railing, and Joshua is leaning back against the railing. Joshua is looking unimpressed. Art of Father continues talking, "I don't want you to suffer their fate. You're a far better Composer than they are, Joshua. And in a much better position!" Joshua looks back over his shoulder while Father continues, "Having that Reaper after you - So foolishly decalring his target!" Joshua turns around to face Father and says, "Father, Are there more records of this Composer? Are they-" Father cuts him off with an angry look, "No, Joshua. There is nothing good to learn from them. You know all that you need."
