Do you follow @r3nio.bsky.social? If not, why not? Sublime art, gritty and supernaturally real. Art from the abyss. Art with life raw and red in tooth and claw. Art that sings songs of northern shadows.

I grew up with Ladybird books and find such pleasure and comfort in the seasonal illustrations.
