goodbye summer!
a boy and a girl hang out in a sun-dappled forest on the brink of autumn. the boy is resting a notebook on his knee and sitting on a rock in front of the bank of a creek. the girl is hanging upside down from a tree that leans over the water.

happy weird clothes summer to all those who celebrate.
a simple pencil drawing of 4 figures with a watercolor wash spanning from spring green to dark blue. the first outfit consists of a long sleeveless cardigan with a pinstripe button-down underneath. the second features a cardigan with aggressively draping sleeves over overalls with cuffed hems, the figure wearing browline glasses and a short ponytail. the third is wearing a poncho where the front is tucked into belted pants and the back flows behind them like a cape. this figure has their arm up to support a cat perched on their shoulder. the last one is wearing a bomber jacket and a sweater vest with a shaggy, longer haircut and glasses. they are looking at a phone.

heaven knows the story that we've born from our hearts, of the shadows cutting deep and the heroes that save us. #deltarune #deltarunefanart
a drawing of susie, kris, and ralsei from the game deltarune in front of stained glass windows that depict themselves in the prophecy. susie sits contemplatively holding her axe in front of a window that shows her clutching her heart and looking to a dark starburst in the sky. kris clenches their fist while gazing down at their sword in front of a window where they float with their soul displayed in a cage-styled chestplate that eminates streams of light. ralsei is holding the brim of his hat up to his face in distress in front of a window that shows him surrounded by magic flames floating above darkness. the windows cast a brilliant, harsh light that has an oppressive, silhouetting effect on the figures. their forms are encased in the projections of the windows on the ground.

mary, did you know? that your womb was also a grave? #conclave
a drawing of vincent benítez resting in sister agnes's office from the movie conclave while lawrence and bellini debate his legitimacy. just above benítez's head is a window that bathes the scene in harsh but warm light. his head is encircled in a halo that cuts through the shroud while he clutches a rosary and slouches on a bench. to the right, in front of the door to the glass barrier, lawrence examines some papers while bellini speaks to him in a determined manner. just outside the entrance to the room, o'malley and another figure weigh in from the doorway.

when god sings with his creations, will a turtle not be part of the choir? #conclave
a drawing of cardinal benítez at the turtle fountain from the movie conclave with lawrence, bellini, sabbadin, and tedesco in tow. benítez returns a turtle to the ground where a light eminates from his touch. lawrence is carrying a turtle thoughtfully towards the fountain while bellini follows with a confused, hopeful expression. sabbadin gently regards a large and small turtle walking beside him. tedesco is standing out of line with the others, looking away while vaping. a small turtle looks up at him. the scene is in early daylight, with direct, bright yellow light sharply illuminating the scene from the right.

DO IT, SETH! #severance
a poster featuring mr. milchick from the tv show severance in various poses from a tight and rhythmic dance he performed in the finale. the illustration is rendered in pencil and marker. the colors are grayscale, save for green and blue shading which alternates with each pose. seth milchick is holding a baton with a large crystal on top of it, and is wearing white gloves, a tie with a white shirt, and a radio on his hip. he is black and has a very meticulously shaped moustache. the title at the bottom of the poster says "Do it, Seth!" with the "Seth!" in a playful script. the text under this reads "Severed floor manager Seth Milchick in the celebration of Macrodata Refinement’s Mark S which proceeded The Betrayal. The Ballad of Ambrose and Gunnel courtesy of Choreography and Merriment. This reminder has been provided by Lumon Management." there is a prominent lumon logo in the lower right of the image.

a luminous gouache and pencil drawing of a girl looking at a bright blue night sky. the girl has tinsel in her hair and is wearing a bright pink star earring with a blue-green windbreaker and bright pink converse sneakers. she has freckles and dark brown hair. the shooting stars in the sky consist of running figures who leave white trails behind them. there is bright pink text at the bottom of the picture in a square and spacey font that says “starburst” with a star next to it.

is it… warm out?
a purple pencil and marker drawing of a girl sitting at a window seat looking at a soft night sky. the window is slightly opened at the bottom, and there are four candles of varying sizes lit at the windowsill. the girl is holding a coffee mug and is wearing a sweater that mimics butterfly wings. she has a shot bob, square glasses, and cochlear implants. the stars in the sky have an occasional twinkle.
