Made my Spookie girl a seasonal post for the cat rescue, since she still needs adopted! Painted her a little witch hat, even though she isn't witchy. She's a good girl!
A photo of a black kitty in a colorful hammock in a PetSmart shows off her lovely claws with an expression that says "she could use them if she wanted to, but she won't bc she's a nice girl". A purple witch hat is painted on, with an orange strap and green paw print buckle.

Didn't get too much done this year, but did get some pieces out at least!
Always love your work, congrats on 12k!
A catlike creature with a cat skull for a head peeks out of the darkness, illuminated by glowing eyes and green flames emerging from the ears. Its main colors are a deep, dark purple, with creamy stripes, which appear to drip from the creature. The ears are large, and almost bat-like. The glowing eyes seem to be locked onto the viewer. A Saimaa Ringed Seal swimming underwater. The face is the most visible, with the body mostly hidden behind a frayed, bright red net around the seal's neck. A civet/boa constrictor hybrid is coiled up around herself, mouth open agape in a snakey smile, her forked tongue sticking out beyond the mouth. She has sharp boa constrictor teeth, but the nose and ears of a civet. The main colors are tan and dark purples, with splashes of pinkish purples and creams. The stripes are like a banded palm civet, mixed with boa, with a boa's spots as well. Her eyes are a pale blue. The tip of her tail is a snake's. Her long body is furred. The background is an abstract pattern with colors ranging from greens to teals to blues to pinks and purples. A headshot of Marrow, a skulldog, throwing his head back almost in a laughing motion. His eyes and mouth glow a bright blue. He has a canine-like skull for a face, with only 2 top fangs, a scratch over the eye, as well as 2 horns on his head. The neck and big ears are furred, with main colors being yellow and black.

Guess I should also post a few art examples! Can range from more simple to painterly.
Reminder: Not currently open on Ko-Fi, all commissions will be charged directly from the cat rescue, I will never see the funds personally.
Rough pricing in ALT. Additional info I couldn't fit here in first ALT.
$40+ for headshot/bust with simple/cell shading, simple background. Additional charges for pricing depends on subject matter and complexity. Commission rules/TOS still apply for these. I will not do certain subject matter. https://kaseikoarts.carrd.co/#tos No refunds for these commissions since it is for a charity. I am able to charge so that all funds go directly to the rescue, but I am not able to process refunds. All funds go directly into cat care (Vet bills, food, litter, toys, etc). Available payment methods: Manual card entry, invoice, paypal, venmo. If there is interest I will take slots so I don't overwhelm myself and I can finish them all before taking on more. $50+ for painterly headshot/bust with simple scene background (this is night scene, can have day scenes with more things visible) $70+ for fullbody character with simple shading and simple gradient or patterned background. $100+ for fullbody character with simple-ish shading/lighting, and background scene (no overly complex scenes/details, please have mercy on me ;w; )

As a special treat, here's little Krenn, who we fostered for a few days while the original foster was on a work trip. She was so tiny and so cute, and had the cutest little squeaky meow (it also ended on a high note so it sounded like a question! ;w; )
Tiny little baby siamese kitten holding a mouse toy. She is beyond cute trust me

Here's some of our fosters right now!
This lovely tuxedo girl is Milky Way, she has a permanent smile marking on her face, which just adds to her adorableness! This little orange and white lad is Twix! He's a sweet boy who is unfortunately one of the medical cases at the moment. We're trying our best with him and he is being closely monitored and medicated, as well as being followed up with at the vet regularly. Black kitty love! This guy is Oogie Boogie! Although it's not in this photo, he gets a "blep" a lot when he forgets to bring his tongue back in! Super cute, and he's just a loving and silly guy. These two are Atlas and Apollo! We partner with Petsmart and have cats in there on select days to help with adoptions. We try to make it as comfortable as possible for them, so everyone gets hammocks! They love them! Here was nap time where the brothers snuggled up in the hammock together.

#Artfight piece for @megaa.bsky.social of their cute little character, Binshu!
#artfight2025 #teamfossils
Binshu, a colorful fish-like critter with facial fins akin to a goldfish, rests its paws atop a piece of driftwood. The color scheme is bright with oranges and purples, contrasted by diluted darker blues and whites. The paws have long, sharp dewclaws, and its body is covered in scales. The critter is doing a blep (sticking the tongue out a little bit), and has a happy, joyful expression. Beside him is a tiny green frog perched on a higher branch of the driftwood, with its tongue stuck out as well. Blep buddies one might say. The background is a sunlit area filled with foliage.

First #artfight of the year! This is Effarus for EffarusMinerva! Love this spirit bear~
#artfight2025 #teamfossil #bear
A spirit bear, blue in color, opens its mouth wide, showing off large, jagged teeth. The bear has a skull for a head on the top, with 2 curved horns. The bear has 2 scratches under the visible ear, and seafoam-aqua flesh in the mouth, as well as a similar color spirit fire surrounding the neck and face. The background is a simple gradient from dark purple at the bottom to a pinker purple at the top. The eyes glow with a similar seafoam-aqua color.

A Saimaa Ringed Seal, done for the #SciArt challenge, #Endangart. Just found out about it, so starting from the first month. January is arctic/tundra, so I did the freshwater seal that only lives in Lake Saimaa, Finland. They are endangered mostly to fishing nets. #artchallenge #animalart #seal
A Saimaa Ringed Seal swimming underwater. The face is the most visible, with the body mostly hidden behind a frayed, bright red net around the seal's neck.

Reintroduction post since I've seen lots of new people here. Welcome, and thank you! 🧡

I am mainly an animal artist, focusing on character art, fantasy, semi-realism, and I've dipped my toes into paleoart more recently as well!

My links to some other places I'm at are in my bio as well~
A Sinosauropteryx, backlit by the evening light, chases a lizard. The lizard is jumping up towards the camera, with the sinosauropteryx looking up at the lizard above. A pair of bears, arranged in a similar way as the yin-yang symbol. The bear on the top is a Sun Bear, and has an image of the sun above/in front of its face. Floating above its head is a gold crown with 3 red diamond-shaped gems. The bear on the bottom is a Moon Bear (aka Asiatic Black Bear). Much like the sun bear, it has the moon by the face, and a silver/light blue crown, with 3 blue diamond-shaped gems. The background on the top behind the sun bear is a clear sky in the day. The background at the bottom behind the moon bear is a clear night sky, with visible stars. Both bears have peaceful, neutral expressions, with the sun bear having its tongue visible from a slightly open mouth. The moon bear's mouth is closed. A headshot of a colorful shoebill character, looking upwards, in front of an orange-ish evening sky. The bill and wing have rainbowish colors. Character art! This is Wade for Crocodear. He is a swampy dragon, and I have him lounging about on a fallen tree over mucky water, with his tail fin half in the water.

#Oldart of a dragon adopt I designed and painted for the buyer. His name is Mr. Lava!
#ocart #dragon #fantasy
A Lava themed dragon stands on a broken, burning tree branch, with lava spewing through it and dripping below. The background is very smokey from the burning lava, and the sky above is an evening sky with pinkish orange tones. The dragon is relatively thin, with a long neck and tail. There are cracked markings all over the top of the dragon with lava coursing under the skin. Flames erupt from the back of the dragon, and there are long ribbony structures on the head, shoulders, hips, and tip of tail. The ribbon-structures are dark orange toned at the base and fade out to yellow at the ends. The tail is striped with black and red. The tail tip is ended in fire. The underside and limbs are a creamy color, fading to dark orange, and then black at the feet. He is wearing gold ankle bangles on each leg. He has a metallic necklace with blue gems, and 2 similarly colored metallic objects attached by long strings. The objects are sharp, with a longer pointed end facing away from the dragon.

#Oldart of one of my Droxiger characters, Malaika. Always liked the lighting on this one.
#ocart #animalart #fantasy
A Droxiger character, Malaika, seen from the head and part of the neck. A droxiger is fox-like, and has feathers on their heads. Malaika is mainly shades of blues, with white markings on her face and neck. Her eyes and head feathers are red and white. Her nose and ears are black. She has her muzzle angled slightly down, and is making eye contact with the viewer with her one visible eye. The background is dark, with light coming from below, and there are many dimly glowing areas behind her (fireflies perhaps). Droxiger species created by Alaeries.

Me: I need a break from art after Dinovember...
Also me: But what if I bring back an old T. rex adopt I've had for forever, but redesign them a bit?

Right now I have his name as Cataclysm, but who knows if it'll ever change, I'm bad with names.

#ocart #paleoart #dinosaur #trex #tyrannosaurusrex
Tyrannosaurus rex character profile. Main colors are muted green body, with pale green underside. He has dark brown stripes, and bright orange markings, with a blue mouth, claws, and a small area on the tip of the tail.

🔆 "The Sun and The Moon" 🌑
Personal art from an idea I had~
#oldart #bears #bear #sunbear #moonbear #animalart
A pair of bears, arranged in a similar way as the yin-yang symbol. The bear on the top is a Sun Bear, and has an image of the sun above/in front of its face. Floating above its head is a gold crown with 3 red diamond-shaped gems. The bear on the bottom is a Moon Bear (aka Asiatic Black Bear). Much like the sun bear, it has the moon by the face, and a silver/light blue crown, with 3 blue diamond-shaped gems. The background on the top behind the sun bear is a clear sky in the day. The background at the bottom behind the moon bear is a clear night sky, with visible stars. Both bears have peaceful, neutral expressions, with the sun bear having its tongue visible from a slightly open mouth. The moon bear's mouth is closed.

#Dinovember Day 30: #Microraptor
I did it! My first successful monthly challenge, from start to finish! Running out of steam though, so I'll need a short break artwise after all these.
#dinovember2024 #paleoart #dinosaur
A male Mircroraptor shows off his feather iridescence to a nearby female (whose feathers are no less impressive). Does she think his gleeful jumping in the air is cute, or is she annoyed? I'll leave that for you to decide. The male Microraptor has his mouth open, eyes closed, and wings outstretched to full display all the iridescent colors in his wings. The full body is visible. The female in the foreground is only visible from the head. She seems to be staring intently at the male, as if judging his every move.

#Dinovember Day 29: #Homalocephale
#dinovember2024 #paleoart #dinosaur
A Homalocephale (small pachycephalosaurid type dinosaur) hops over a log, looking back over its shoulder, wary of a nearby therapod in the area. The therapod's shadow is visible in the upper left hand corner of the image, along with tree shadows being cast over the image as well. The major colors are greens and yellow-oranges. The major markings on the Homalocephale are thick banded stripes all over the body. The bony skull plate is the yellowish orange, and it has another patch of the same color on the cheek.
