Yearly pie update!
Two pumpkin pies fresh out of the oven! They have a crispy buttery sugar crust on top and a souffle style filling.

I am back from surgery and have been in recovery for over a week! I have been drawing on my iPad while resting!

The surgery didn't go as planned but still went well! The post op pain and fatigue sucks but I'm so blessed to have received so much encouragement! TY! ❤️

The work I just finished for @elyseexplosion.fyi is a great way to show you all my 💫✨️absolute dogshit process✨️💫. All the finished images were built on the super basic sketches I drew live on a call with elyse. Having even super rough thumbnails to show a client makes final work so much easier.
A finished avatar of my sister in the style of vanna white, with individually painted sequins. A frankly pathetic base sketch of elyse posing like vanna white. Elyse dressed as legendary game show host Gene Rayburn with his signature long skinny microphone Jesus christ the bse sketch for the gene rayburn avatar is bad. It is the vaguest idea of a pose and details.

The trick to productivity is to make your job the literal only thing that shuts your anxiety down. I've been ruminating on 9/11 for over an hour. Drawing brings me back to my own body.
Pencil drawing of a woman with her hands above her head, her fingers strung together in a tangled cats cradle. She is casting a near-perfect shadow to the direct right of the image.

PANK FRIDAY IS THIS UPCOMING FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28! Please share - all information is in the thread!! Tune in at noon Eastern at www.twitch.tv/elyseexplosion, I and my teeth thank you!!
An infographic with a cartoon of a pink haired woman in a glamorous dress holding a floating tooth with the letter E on it. The text reads: PANK FRIDAY 2025 Earlier this year, I broke a tooth. After several rounds at the dentist, we discovered that I needed a root canal in that tooth, as well as multiple permanent crowns and the removal of my last wisdom tooth. Even though I have dental insurance, it doesn’t cover nearly enough - the cost of one root canal and one of the crowns is close to $1000, and I need 3. I’m hoping to raise some money to make sure I can continue to have teeth AND pay bills. Make it make sense. TL;DR: I need money for dental work The next page of said infographic. It features a cartoon of a pink haired woman glowering behind a podium, with her glasses gleaming like she's the scary guy from Evangelion. The text reads: THE PREMISE Starting at 12pm Eastern on Friday, November 28, I will be streaming a random assortment of video games based on television game shows - think Jeopardy!, Wheel of Fortune, Millionaire (of course) - even some older gems like Press Your Luck and Win, Lose or Draw. The stream will go until midnight* and games will be chosen by THE WHEEL™. Every channel subscription or stream donation will go directly towards my dental care. And since it’s a sub- a-thon, of course that means TIERED REWARDS for viewers as well! SUCH AS...... The third page of the infographic. There is a cartoon of a pink haired woman behind a Jeopardy! podium, looking anxious despite having $2000 on the board. The text reads: SUB GOALS 5 subs - Chat writes a Bluesky post for me 10 subs - Vintage Elyse Explosion clip show! 25 subs - Chat picks a new emote for me to add 50 subs - Family Game Nite - Group Jackbox stream 75 subs - Powerwash Simulator stream with Twitch pals 100 subs - Cosplay stream! Game will be related. More than 100? TBD If 100+ subs are simultaneously gifted, the stream will end immediately! The fourth and final page of the infographic. A cartoon of a pink haired woman looking dapper in a leisure suit and carrying a long, thin microphone is presenting the information. The text reads: DONATION GOALS $5: Chat writes a caption for an Instagram selfie $10: Saxophone solo live on stream $25: Flamin’ Hot taste test live on stream $50: A live Twitch viewing of my Millionaire episode $100: Chat picks the next game I complete on stream $250: Saxophone solo IN COSPLAY live on stream $500: Chat picks my hair color for one month $750: Clown Time (I attempt a clowning performance) $1000: Future Sonic Adventure 2 stream $2500: Get a Vtuber rig ALL GOALS ARE CUMULATIVE

i have no concept of pacing. i will work nonstop for a while and then explode and you won't see art from me again for 6 months.

this was originally drawn on march 21st, 2020. the first page in a brand new sketchbook that i am currently about half way through. i used very cheap oil pastels i bought probably 12 years ago and made some mistakes along the way but i kind of love her.
oil pastel illustration of a woman with voluminous red curly hair with a sash of dark blue fabric across her chest. she has a recent arm amputation at her left shoulder. her right hand is raised above her head, blocking some light from her eyes.

i do not understand the moderation label "sexually suggestive, does not include nudity" on every piece of mine that *does* include nudity but is *not* sexually suggestive. meanwhile, all of my pin ups in literal lingerie don't trigger the moderation labels.

another piece that's sat unfinished for like 4 years. i wanted to play with dry media a bit and i think it worked out.
an oil pastel illustration a woman stepping into water with a pier behind her, the full moon behind her illuminating the contour of her body. the grungy color wash on the paper was achieved using very well-used acetone full of bits of old paint and nail polish

haven't we all
a pen and ink illustration of a woman wearing a white stole and black dress. she has long wavy hair, a vicious look, and monstrous hands. each hand is grasping a horn growing from her head, her right hand reaching up to grip firmly, her left already holding the broken horn pulled from her skull.

by contrast, these pencils were done in july.
full color illustration of an elizabethan woman with nails driven into her upper and lower jaw, blood running from each wound and her nose. she has a blank look on her face, mimicking the way i mask pain. the colors are vibrant and abstract.

this is the quickest turnaround i've had on a piece in months because i just loved the image so much in my mind.
full color traditional illustration of a woman in a silk slip and simple veil standing in front of broken stained glass cathedral windows. the windows are brilliantly colored and yellow light is coming through the empty spaces.

Dick Cheney has died. He is preceded into death by his parents, the guy he shot in the face, and a million Iraqis.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

It's that time again! Late night dysmorphia selfies! My skin has been a nightmare and i have felt inhuman for months because of it.
A photo self-portrait of pale woman with bold red lips and a silvery smokey eye. Her long dark hair is curled. Her face is partially covered by her hand. She has black nail polish and a ring, which is unfortunately twisted the wrong way.

Happy halloween, from my pumpkins to yours 🎃🎃
A front porch at night, decorated with mums, two jack o lanterns, and a door wreath. The jack o lanterns are very cute and smily. Like mega cute. I did such a good job. A closer shot of the jack o lanterns, which are so cute words cannot convey. One has pointy eyes and one has round eyes. They both have round button noses and goofy grins with funny teeth. I love them so much. I don't want them to be compost. I will miss them.
