Trying to break a few years worth of art block by going back to my roots (which was bad sonic the hedgehog fanart)
A pencil drawing of Rouge the bat from the sonic the hedgehog series. She's just like snuggling up with some big beaded necklaces (because i tried drawing a jewel in her hand and it looked bad.) (Also I drew her hand really bad)

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

My favourite customer came into the shop today and recognised the song 'Dia' by jumbo from my playlist, because it was used in a flash animation literally 20 years ago and it's just made me so happy?

Infinite love and support to the people of Iran and Palestine and anywhere else on earth unfortunate enough to be caught in the stupid, bloodthirsty gaze of America and Israel

I was so excited to post this finished but I've somehow lost the original! I wanted to scan her and add some neon colours :< This is the last photo I took of Callistemon doing the nu metal fisheye lens pose
An illustration of Callistemon Splendenz, my alien character. She's doing a pose reminiscent of early 2000s nu metal artists, where they would put their open hands too close to the camera

I decided to upgrade this piece to celebrate the beginning of pride month

Gideon holding Harrow's hands with two spears piercing through them. An array of statues and half melted candles frame their figures. Harrow is wearing a scarf tinted red with her blood and it looks like bloody wings.

I work in a boutique and today a lady came in and said "I love the way cats lift their legs up and lick themselves. I wish I could do that"

...This only needs 26,160 signatures to get to the 100,000 signature mark and the point where they have to schedule a debate. I was pushing to get it across the *10,000* line what feels like barely a few weeks ago.

Petition: Allow transgender people to self-identify their legal gender.
We believe the government should change legislation to make it easier for trans people of all ages to change their legal gender without an official diagnosis of gender dysphoria.

Megathread of pro-trans petitions on Parliament’s petition website. If Labour suddenly gets hit with debates for a bunch of pro-trans petitions, maybe they’ll realise this issue isn’t going away and they’ve fucked up.

I’ll add more as I find them.

A world without Trans people has never existed, and it never will. More than visibility, we need safety 🏳️‍⚧️
Portait of a woman covered in sludge. Only her arms are uncovered. But within the sludge, her face and body are partially visible, revealing a floral pattern on her face and body, pink and white flowers on blue background. This is a repaint of an illustration I did a decade ago. In the original there in equal sign superimposed at the bottom of the canvas. The equal sign is still there, but it is empty now.

I made a tote bag for Thunder Egg in Manchester! I really like how it came out!
