Check out the LADS white day themed stamp rally at kawaiikon next weekend! I got to draw a semi-spicy Zayne 😳

Thanks to @kalgado.bsky.social for hosting!

It seems that my brain is truly incapable of coming up with design ideas until I’m a week out from a con 🥲…then it gives me so many that I can’t finish them all

Happy with how my new pikachu charm turned out for kawaii kon next weekend ⚡️

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Anyone still buying art and silly little things made by artists when shit’s this scary are the goat. I could honestly cry every time I get an order if I think about it too much, little guys are the epitome of a non essential and you guys still like them enough to buy them anyways 🥹🥹🥹😭😭

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

I love & support my fellow queers, people of color, trans & non-binary folks, and otherwise marginalized folks. If you don’t feel the same way, you can block me. ✌️

I look like this and my art looks like that

Of course when I go to filming an unboxing all my press-ons decide to pop off 🥲

I think we all need to go back to making ugly, funky little websites about our special interests….its the only way to heal the internet

I'll always respect people that got into Sailor Moon in the mid 90s. That series came on at like 5:30 AM and had only the slightest trickle of a marketing push. You had to WANT to be a fan of Sailor Moon.

It would be nice if I could be an artist without having to worry about my impending doom every year like the good old days

Got my new pins for my #Obikin shrine!

Many thanks to @geekipopstudio.bsky.social and Cherriielle for the gorgeous pins! 🩵

Artist alley peeps: Are we going back to shrinky dinks and resin keychains if this tariff crap passes? What are the alternatives for enamel pins? I'm so stressed.

Take care of yourselves and those around you. Having a sense of community and empathy is more important than ever. No matter what anyone thinks you have value as a human being and dont let anyone tell you different 🫂

there are lots of feelings today, but i hope we can always find solace in one another
