Yesterday I made these adorable mushrooms out of wooden buttons, wool, lace and pipe cleaner, as well as some cute embellishments!

I'll be selling them this Saturday, along with my art, at the Hex Market in Malmö!

#art #crafting #autumn #mushrooms
Three mushrooms made from wooden buttons, felt and lace are hanging from a tree. The rear one has an embroidered vine on the stalk, the others a single drop in the form of a bead hanging from the lace. A row of 5 handmade mushrooms, the 3 in the centre each have a bead drop hanging from their lacy collars, and the outer 2 have green vines embroidered on the stalks. A single mushroom hanging from a tree, made from a wooden button, wool and lace, with a green vine embroidered on the stalk. A poster for the hex market in Malmö, Sweden, on the 4th of October 2025. It's at 11-17 at Mitt Möllan.

I've made a comic adaptation of this story, with permission! Available to purchase in person over the weekend at Malmö Seriefest. I'm super thrilled to see it in print, and to get to share it with people! I will most likely have it available digitally after the weekend.

I painted this Hollow Knight picture years ago for a friend, back before I had played the game myself. I've since fallen in love with it too and very excited to play Silksong!

It's mother's day today here in Sweden, and this is the painting I did as a card for my mum (the fearsome black dragon)! My brother and I are offering her a new plant for her garden hoard. I used watercolours and coloured pencils.

#art #dragon #morsdag #mothersday
A watercolour painting of a black dragon basking on a rock above a variety of flowers and plants, looking greedily down on a tree being offered for its hoard by two people with long hair.

Young Goku is such a cutie! I don't normally use such bold and saturated colours but it was a lot of fun.

This painting is one I recently did for @cunobaros.bsky.social , for his birthday.

#art #songoku #dragonball #fanart
A watercolour painting in saturated, vivid blues and oranges. It has mostly orange line art. The painting depicts young Goku from the original Dragon Ball series riding the cloud Flying Nimbus away from Korin's Tower (an incredibly tall, mostly white, tower with a large ovoid on top).

Oh to be a lady knight in vibrant respite, full of colour and life, with a small green dragon for company.

#art #knight #dragon #wildflowers #watercolour
A watercolour painting with magenta line art, it is very saturated and colourful. It depicts a field of flowers, in pink, yellow, turquoise and white, with green leaves. In it is a lady knight in armour, gleaming and subtly reflecting the surrounding colours. She is on her back, glimpsed in profile through the foliage. She is looking at a small green dragon that is perched on her gauntleted hand, held up above the flowers.

A little watercolour of a sweet and decrepit little overgrown fiat 500. I enjoyed playing with burnt sienna coloured ink with my dip pen for the line art!

There's 4 creatures to spot, can you find them all?

#art #watercolor #car #cat
A watercolour painting with warm toned brown ink for line art, with a light and summery quality. The picture depicts a derelict light blue fiat 500 car, starting to be overgrown by plants. There's saplings growing behind the car, with pale pink flowers, and there are some flowers on the other surrounding plants and grass. On the car bonnet a ginger cat is snoozing. Tucked into the bumper is a birds nest with a small bird in it. There are two discrete little creatures climbing on the car.

A few little trolls I sketched in watercolour at the beginning of the month and forgot to post anywhere.
#art #fantasy
4 watercolour sketches of trolls made from stone, with pointy ears, and long tails with tufts on the end. All the trolls are covered in vegetation or moss or lichen. The topmost troll is covered in green plants and pink flowers, having a nap, with a little mouse observing. The second troll has brown dread-like vegetation, and a pond lily, and is relaxing in a pond as if a spa. The bottom left is full of wisteria, looking wistfully above at some wisteria. The bottom right has yellow mossy grass, and is hugging a lamppost.

Sophie Hatter and Howl Pendragon from Howl's Moving Castle that I doodled quickly for Valentine's day back in 2023. Specifically based on the scene at the end of the book, and a bit of a blend between my book imagining of them and the movie.

“The quietest waters hold the biggest secrets” a watercolour I painted this month for an art exchange. #art #watercolour #watercolor #dragon
A watercolour painting of a tranquil lake scene. The area around the lake is hilly with lots of pine forest, a mist is hanging over the lake, and upon it is a small fishing boat with a lone fisherman. The scene is cut in two, as the viewer can also see what lays beneath the surface of the lake. Here there are ruins of an old building, with a dark pink and white dragon slumbering, curled around the ruins and twisting into the depths of the lake. Around the dragon are scattered bits of gold.

I was looking through my mushroom photos and realised I've got some cool photos I never shared anywhere. This one is from a couple of years ago, and I really like it.

Kiki in spring, taking a nap amongst some early flowers! I drew this for a little challenge called Ghibli November, which I joined in with last year as well. A fun excuse to do some fanart!

#art #fanart #ghiblinovember
It’s a young girl, Kiki from the film Kiki’s delivery service, lying curled up in a field. Next to her are her cat Jiji and her father’s portable red radio. The shadow of some clouds are passing over them. Ghibli November details in flowers like the bouquet from Spirited Away. 4-10 Spring. 11-17 Summer. 18-24 Autumn. 25-30 Winter.

Happy Halloween! 🎃

This is my last Froggy fall picture! I had lots of fun with the challenge! This one has the theme spooky season, and it’s got lots of spookiness going on! You can see my sketches etc on patreon as a free member.

#art #spookyseason #witch #frog #blackcat
It’s a cartoony drawing, oranges, purples and blues, of a little witch in a graveyard. The witch is startled by an unexpected scene, of her frog and a cricket making music for a beetle waltz. Watching are also some ghosts,a cat and a spider. There are jack-o’-lanterns in the foreground.

This was the third #froggyfall art challenge picture, theme cosy café! I had fun imagining what a frog café would be like!

#frog #art #witch
A cosy café scene, in a café for frogs. Half the café is a pool and the rest is on cobbles. A young witch is sitting at a lilypad table in front with her frog familiar, who is taking a bath.
