The downside to physically transitioning is now I actually care about how I look. My desire to put together cute outfits is growing exponentially. I want all the clothes. Help.

Old art that I still quite like. Feeling like a good time to share it

Happy first day of October! It's Scitch's birth month, so here she is enjoying the season 🍂

(She raided her partner's wardrobe for that outfit)

Outfits and situations
A character wearing a long patchwork coat and lower face covering stands on top of a building surrounded by flames, and a magic fire summoned in one hand. She faces the viewer, looking down with an intense expression, only her eyes visible.

I really wanted to do more for Art Fight, but this month ended up wearing me down. I thumbnailed several attacks and revenges that I ran out of time (and energy) to complete.

Hoping to tackle those next year, and overall do more!

I'm doing Art Fight! This will be my first year joining in, and I'm excited!

I only have three characters listed so far, but I have more refs in the works. We'll see if I can get them posted before the first

Go follow me if you want!

I'm constantly putting this girl in outfits and situations

Today is World Schizophrenia Awareness day

We as a society desperately need to break down the stigma around schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and this is absolutely a hill I will die on

Sometimes you gotta doodle a cute sun room on a sticky note to get through an exhausting work day

Coming up on a year since I lost my sweet, stupid boy, Patches. I've been thinking about him and the other piggies a lot lately. They were all so fun and unique and charming 💜

I'm still not ready for a new pet, but I sure miss having guinea pigs

I'm the kind of person who skips over intermediate steps and dives straight into the deep end, apparently. Only one beginner cross stitch under my belt and I decided to tackle this pattern by @16pxl.bsky.social next. Really enjoying it so far 💜

Cozy in bed, working on a comic page, with two whole kitties to keep me company. Sometimes life isn't so bad.

I've recently been rotating an old character in my head again. For anyone unfamiliar, this is Scitch. She has been one of my brain children since 2006, with several different interations over the years. This version of her has been around since 2015/16-ish.

I'd missed drawing her. Been a while
Art of a character with long red hair and green eyes. Her hands are enveloped in flames. She's wearing a dark purple-blue off-collar sweater, skinny jeans, and brown fold-down boots. She has two gold cartilage earrings in her left ear, and a mischievous and somewhat threatening expression on her face.

Upside to having a window that gets BLASTED with morning sun in spring and summer is I get to take pretty pictures of my plant babies
