i dont know whats gonna happen but here. 🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪
alright. lots of things happening right now. for those who don’t know me, hi, i’m spikermonster, and i’m a venezuelan artist. i’ve been sharing my art on the internet since i was a kid. i was born here in caracas and i’ve never moved out. the only time i’ve ever left the country was in 2001, when i was 9 and my dad took me to disney world. i’m saying all this because it’s important that people know that i’m someone who actually lives here and has always lived here, so i don’t get anyone in my mentions trying to dismiss anything i say because they think i live in another country or whatever. you might think i don’t owe anyone this much of an explanation, but i feel like i do, because i’ve seen the way americans snarkily dismiss anything venezuelans say about the issue if it’s something they can’t wrap their heads around. they don’t even try to look at it from our perspective. suddenly every venezuelan who speaks up online is secretly a CIA shill. with all due respect you guys are fucking insane. all you’re doing is silencing venezuelan voices and you don’t even realize it. do i blame you for thinking that way? no, i don’t! because the CIA is terrifying and the US sucks, trump sucks, we all know this. but you care WAY more about hating your own country (as valid as your reasons may be) than you do about actually listening to people from other countries. so thanks for making me do all this extra work just to speak about my country. last night the US military launched airstrikes in venezuela and there were also troops on the ground. i heard the planes and explosions. i’m not able to see the city from my apartment but i could hear everything, the sounds were unmistakable and unlike anything i’d heard before. i was scared shitless. however this is something we’ve been all mentally preparing ourselves for, since as some of you might know, the US had been besieging venezuela for several months via the caribbean sea. still, you might think you’re ready for a moment like this but trust me, you’re truly not, and you realize that real quick once it actually happens. please know that my family and i are safe. the places that were targeted were specifically military bases and points of interest like that, it wasn’t a random bombing against civilians with lots of casualties or anything. at the time of me writing this post, there’s only one confirmed civilian casualty, and according to some sources it might be around 40, the large majority of which were military. i have not been able to confirm this though. i’m not saying this to downplay the importance of the situation, i just want to get some facts straight because there’s a lot of fearmongering and sensationalism revolving around the issue. that being said, it was still the single most terrifying thing i’ve lived through. this should’ve never happened. we should’ve never reached a point where a foreign military intervention was needed. yes, needed. because we never would’ve been able to get rid of maduro ourselves, trust me, we’ve been trying for several years. maduro needed to be taken care of. if you don’t know why, i encourage you to do your own research on the venezuelan crisis and how we ended up in a dictatorship (maybe pick up a few pointers so you can recognize that trump himself is becoming a dictator pretty quick, but i think you might’ve noticed already.) now, i’m hearing that this move from the US was apparently not exactly legal but i’m gonna be honest with you: we don’t care. “but they’re just after your oil” we don’t care. we’re just glad maduro is finally out. whatever happens with him now is up to the US. or the UN if it ever decides to stop being useless and step in. i really have no energy in me to think of what this means for the US, all i can think about right now is what’s going to happen with my own country. btw if you’re an american and posted this meme reacting to current events: [image of squidward wearing a huge button that says "i really wish i weren't living through a major historical event right now!"] i’m gonna need you to get a grip and sit down because this isn’t about you. this and overdramatic angry apologies on behalf of your government are displays that don't show any solidarity towards venezuelans, because you’re literally just making it all about you. you you you, it's always all about the USA. reel it in and listen to venezuelans for once, my god. get some perspective. why is it always americans trying to make every world issue an american issue. no, the venezuelan military isn’t gonna retaliate against your country because they’re pathetically underequipped. you guys are gonna be fine (in a way, i guess, the US has a lot of other issues to worry about)

Ludwig, the holy blade

#bloodborne
Horsen limb and sinuous hair corrupts every facet of the human form, writhing tumor erupts with the inner eyes of insight blindly looking for humanity, the glow of a moonlight blades illuminates and guides this affront to life

I'm writing and illustrating a visual novel (FR/ENG) in my free time. 2 out of 5 chapters are completed.

This project is 100% human. I am also a solo artist working on it.

If you have enjoyed it, I'd appreciate some shares :D

Art from 2025

Digital drawing of a dragon, only its head and neck visible. Its head and neck are covered in sharp, dark blue scales; it has two blue horns pointing backward, and its eye is orange-red. In the background, you can see the evening sky with clouds on either side and the sun shining just below the dragon's chin. Profile picture of the face/bust of my creature looking slightly to the camera, but mostly to the side. They are a mammal with a long pointy snout, with a pink little nose at the end, and long, pointy ears. They have green eyes, and a brow body with lighter brown inside the ears and in the front of their neck. Traditional drawing, heavily edited digitally (using Procreate), of a large, black, tentacle-like creature with a single red eye emerging from clouds above a city skyline of tall, dark buildings. Digital drawing of a huge creature emerging from the clouds on a plain, with two mountains in the background. The waning moon is visible in the sky. The creature is a Silo: a quadrupedal animal with long, pointed legs, a long, thick neck, large, spiky horsehair on its back, a thin, pointed face, red eyes, and a thin tail with a large tuft at the end. The drawing is mostly in varying shades of a dark, opaque blue, except for the creature's eye, which is red.

What? Still here?

Hand it over, that thing, your dark soul. I need it... for my lady's painting.

At the end of ringed city, the end of a dreg heap, the end of everything, an engorged, withered, old, Knight still drudges through the dust and ash and time, red cape, hooded head writhing with the feted souls of pygmi lords, broken great sword digging into new moonless knight

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
a watercolour painting on a white background of a little teal coloured creature which is sort of dinosaur/lizard shaped, but has a huge dorky grin on his face and blunt teeth. He's trotting along very happily.

Not doing a full yearly run down, but I will slam some of my favorites from the year here.

First, general art.

#skulldogart #newyear #fantasyart #traditionalart
A thylacine lying down with eyes closed, a series of four red stars surround it's body. The text reads Lost Soul and curls along the tail. Digital image of three raptors running through bones, with a neon lines trailing. A three headed creature with dog like features. One head is bright pink, the center is yellow, and the last is bright blue, with a black body. Wood burnt art of a cockatrice with tail curled up across it's chest with neon pink accents.

Bluesky is complicated and very different compared to other social media platforms. I even think that it's pretty non-intuitive

Criticizing people for coming here with certain expectations will only push us further apart

If you really want to build a healthy art community here please welcome and encourage new peeps who are starting here!

Mocking and vandalizing other peers for trying their best to earn their bread is not the way to attract people to stay here.

despite the miserable fall weather, the Abbot always made sure to take the novice monks out to his favorite mushroom foraging grounds. if they were lucky he'd also have the opportunity to teach them some weather forecasting tricks
