🍄Just a Mushroom🍄 @mycotae.bsky.social · Nov 19
Hello!

I'm a Canadian artist focusing in horror, monsters, weird wildlife and mushrooms!

My work is mostly SFW with the occasional mild nudity and body horror.

Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/mycotae

Thank you!
A diving Livyathan melvillei with its mouth open. There are two prehistoric whales silhouetted next to it. A prehistoric hominid holding an old skull up to the northern lights. There are fire embers floating in front. A blue and white wolf cuddling with a brown and cream wolf. They are at the mouth of a cave. There are fall leaves and snowflakes floating around them. The background is dead trees. An undead horse looking over a grassy field at the sunset. A ghost orchid blooms from the right hand side. The shades are red, orange, black and white

Merry Christmas and happy holidays!!

My gift to you this year is a thread of good news updates from Rocket Cat Rescue.
I haven’t had time to dig out the decorations this year, so have some Christmas photos from years past featuring baby Frodo and Fizzgig.

Updates in thread below!
A photo of a small shorthaired tabby kitten with burnt and scarred nubby ears staring at Christmas decorations in wonder. A photo of a small long haired colorpoint tabby cat with no eyes smiling up at the camera with her teeth showing. She’s dressed in a Christmas collar with a present bow on it and a Santa hat.

Yeah, no thanks.

Stop guilting people about being estranged from family members. It someone is they likely have personal reasons for being so.

Saw this on FB and it's true.

Too many of these are bought on a whim. They require a lot of care and people usually can't provide 😔

Happy Holidays, everyone! 🎄
I didn't have time to paint a new winter themed art, so here is the one from last year.
A peaceful winter scene in a small village. In the sky a deer that looks like night divides the illustration in two parts - one is sunset, and the other behind the deer is night. A thin crescent moon is located between deer's antlers.

Merry #Crustmas to all who celebrate! Hoping you are firmly attached to people you love, are able to scoop up large amounts of food, and can hide in an impervious shell when the social situation requires it ❤️
My sculpture of an acorn barnacle—a crustacean!—in steel, bronze, and sterling silver, sitting on a white background. My hand touches the steel barnacle shell and provides scale (barnacle is just a bit smaller than my hand). The barnacle’s filter feeding legs (cirri) are spread dramatically wide.

Uh-oh........X has did it again!
Btw, Here is the very recent work I did!
It's kind of a fly motif cryptid. I've been watching an analog horror video while I was working on this. Personally, I like the horror theme, so I'd like to explore more about it!

If the holidays routinely wound you & kind people reach out to comfort you, don’t be afraid to accept that comfort even if you’ve been accustomed to the pain of the season for years. It can help keep you on a healing path.

If you’re still alone, you still matter. You always did & you always will.
