This kintsugi inspired scar coverup is still one of the most special pieces I’ve been asked to do 💕

Can’t stop thinking about the concept of pigeoncore and how cute a pigeon themed outfit would be so I drew pigeons

Sketching in blues and pinks is my absolute favourite combo

-just a small health/nhs vent into the void- i *finally* have been seen by a gynaecologist after over a year on the waitlist (and two years fighting to get on it) and she was so belittling it’s made me scared that when i get my surgery they’ll tell me i actually made everything up.

Anyone got some weirdlit recommendations? This week I read Monstrilio, The Eyes are the Best Part, and Chlorine and adored them! Also Tampa which I wasn’t such a fan of.

There is free application called Calibre that you can also remove DRM with! (Which means you can read your kindle books via non Amazon devices). It’s really easy to do!
🚨🚨If you use kindle, Download your books before Amazon removes the ability next week. That is your money you spent and those are your books. 🚨🚨

Just some quick tiny shroom sketches to get out of this slump… maybe it’s working?

Another Ghibli piece because I’ll never ever get tired of doing them! Laputa was the first Ghibli movie I ever watched and I fell in love :)

Is there a word for this experience as an artist? It’s not artist’s block exactly, but I have zero motivation to use my usual mediums and only want to experiment with new crafts the last few months. I wouldn’t mind, but drawing is my job, so I kind of have to do it. Any tips?

My pants tore so I sewed them up using fishbone stitch and added this cute chicken patch, and now my pants have at least 20% more whimsy and fun :))

Jumper update- probably 10-15 hours in and it’s going so well! My stitches and tension are way more uniform than first jumper already, and there’s only one weird hole so far 🥳

Instagram stresses me out so much 🥲 I’m still gotta post there because literally all my work comes through it, but it’s taken me all week to get over the anxiety and actually post something and I can’t even explain why

I finished Starve Acre by Andrew Michael Hurley the other day and it was brilliant!
An evocative, creeping folk horror about loss and grief. This is gently paced and more focused on the atmosphere of slow dread than a tight plot. It ended full of mystery and I can’t stop thinking about it.

How beautiful are these meadow waxcaps I found in October? I was so happy this day!
The last one is I believe a Rosecomb mutation, and it’s gorgeous :)

Made a start on my second ever jumper last night! Hoping I’m able to make this one with less mistakes- it’s the same pattern so fingers crossed!
