Forget-Me-Not
Symmetrical surreal digital drawing of an open canine mouth that has two sets of wings, two deer skulls, two mouse skulls, and a bunch of forget-me-not flowers emerging from within. From behind emerges a pair of antlers. There is also black mystery goop dripping out! Yum!

Thanks for hosting and congrats on 300 !!!
This is a piece I lovingly call "Fishtomer Service" and I did base the dialogue on a real conversation I had to have with a customer :')
One-panel comic of an anthromorphic fish (california golden trout) working a customer servjce job. He is being yelled at by a customer and is not happy to be there.

FINISHED THIS YEAR'S HALLOWEEN ART AHEAD OF SCHEDULE!!! Behold- "Deep Breath"
A symmetrical digital drawing in many neon colors. It features a yawning coyote mouth with exaggerated fangs. Emerging from the mouth is a set of open hands, a set of paws, a small set of lungs, two eyes in the center, and black goop that is reminiscent of blood or perhaps ink. It is titled Deep Breath.

White background with black text "art at beginning of COVID" Digital drawing of a feathered snake-like dragon from late 2020. It is a vivid orange with cobalt blue feathers and a cyan tongue and scale details in the highlights and shadows over an olive background. White background with black text "vs. now!" Very recent digital painting of a snake-like dragon that takes up the whole canvas with its many coils. It is painted in classic sunset colors- pink with purple shadows and orange/yellow highlights. There are scale details between color layers.

Silly doodle of a dragon noodle!
Digital painting of a long noodley dragon with no legs or wings and (presumably) four eyes. It fills the entire canvas, looping around itself in a very noodley pile of dragon. It is done in classic sunset colors (purple, pink, orange, yellow)

Me vs the urge to draw green wolf depression metaphor artwork
Vibrant green sketchy drawing of a wolf and bunny with a spiky halo that reads "where is the line between kindness and gullibility? How do I see it? Must I become cruel to survive?" Drawing of a green wolf on a green cakground baring its very yellow teeth in a clear "fear" expression for dogs- text forms a halo that in yellow reads "see how i bare my teeth in an awkward smile, clumsy and inhuman" and fading green text reads "sorry" repeatedly. Drawing of a blue wolf-headed figure over a green background with one bloody hand in her mouth and the other holding her heart out, with a halo of text around it that repeats "a heart is a burden i no longer wish to bear" Sketchy drawing of the face of some sort of human-dog hybrid floating dead in green water with a green background- inside their mouth are the words "help me" in bright red. Its supposed to be a metaphor for choking on your inability to ask for help <3 its titled 'lone wolf'

My first attempt at this piece wasn't giving what I wanted it to give.. this is why I never ever delete my sketch layer <3 it looked cool but didn't have the vibe I was looking for despite being more polished! I do like the colors though, I should work with tri tones more often :3c

I fear my kind and trusting nature will one day get me eaten
A green wolf and bunny over a green background with dark red outlines, holding paws. The wolf's mouth is open over the bunny's head. Their eyes are neon green and there is a spiky neon green halo around them, half pointing inwards and half pointing outwards. In the same green as the bunny it says "where is the like between kindness and gullibility? How do I see it?" And in the same green as the wolf it says "must I become cruel to survive?"
