Look what came in the mail! 📪
🍁🍂I got to illustrate David Larbi's fun poem about autumn (and socks!).
It appears in the current issue of Highlights magazine (November 2025)
I'm curious if anyone here, or their kids, has a favourite pair of socks! 🧦

I think that my recent royalty was the last payment I was expecting for the year.
So I probably won't see another advance or royalty payment till next March.
Just so you know how it goes 🙃

I do not understand why LinkdIn thinks it's so important that I must know such-and-such company is 'trending with +% followers'.
Guys, I and probably 90% of your users don't need nor care to know that; just send us real job opportunities, plz.

If you would like to help kids who have been affected by recent hurricanes in the Phillipines, my friend is offering sketches for donations of just $10+ 👇
Going serious.
Homeland 🇵🇭 was devastated by back-to-back typhoon which destroyed a lot of homes and displaced families.
I am offering $10+ sketches. All profits will be donated to ChildHope Philippines, a local org providing basic needs to street children, the most vulnerable population rn

Bowie sometimes thinks about his wolf ancestors. Their ferocity, their ruggedness, their giant teeth, their unstoppable spirit.
Then he thinks about how proud they’d be of him and his ability to manipulate his humans into picking up his poop. 🐾💩
