Repost of Ivelyn in the "Book Author" pose wearing a t-shirt that has half trans colors and half asexual colors.

I forgot about today! I'm still around and working on myself. It's been slow, but I feel like I'm making some progress. No artwork as of 2026 yet.

Lovely Rat~

A rat for @ivelyn.bsky.social !!

Thank you~ Your watercolors are wonderful!

I definitely agree with both benefitting each other. I had fallen into my perfectionist mindset when drawing only digitally for several years. That's my personal hurdle and traditional definitely helps me overcome that.

My art hiatus might go on for a bit longer. There has been mental strains lately and unfortunately art is one of them. I plan to reset my process and return to basics of line and shape practice (but traditionally!)

I'm still alive! It's just been difficult lately.

Awhh, that's incredible! I've been wondering what became of me and my friend's art stuff after we left. Extremely kind!

Medical issues :(
I'm hoping to recover in several weeks.

Hell yeah

oouuugh... art derusting is quite the frustrating process. Gotta relearn to relax and have fun with it. In due time!

Ivelyn lifting her shirt looking at her surgical scars on her abdomen. She's looking a little concerned, but mostly wondering how long it'll take for them to heal.

It's been a week after surgery and I'm feeling pretty good! I haven't taken pain meds since the second day. Some awkward pains but nothing too bad.

Been thinking a lot about this year; how disappointed I've been in my creative pursuit with my anxiety issues.

Inactivity has made drawing hard :(

Thank you! I hope so too

Thank you for the time you spent with me. Both you and your plushie stand-in.

Thank you!
It was such an interesting experience (this being my first.). I'm doing everything I can to recover and not risk any injury.

Thank you! The pain isn't that bad (3/10 at most.). Believe me, I'm doing everything I can to recover soon.

Surgery went well! Now it's time to recover. No more gallbladder pain (although the surgical pains are eeriely similar to gallbladder pain)

Happy Halloween! My favorite day of the year. Next year I hope I can participate more. Love seeing all the various artworks of the season.

Thank you, I really appreciate it!
I do hope I can start the new year rolling. I plan on dipping back into traditional art and attempt to learn more of that.

💜

I was shocked that they told me the surgery was only 30 minutes to an hour. The surgeon's whole spiel on the operation answered all of my questions pretty thoroughly too.

Thank you! I've been aching to art (especially during the Halloween month!) but I can't focus. I'm confident about the surgery! I'm more worried about the pre/post op stuff than the operation itself.

Ivelyn sitting in a hospital bed looking anxious.

My art will (mostly) be put on hold until 2026. There's been a lot going on this year and I cant really handle being creative right now. My gallbladder surgery is scheduled for next month, and even though it's a common surgery I'm still anxious.

An Ahamkara and a dragon couple (Winter and Sophie respectively) riding the bus together hand in hand. The pair are wearing, and I quote "basic bitch clothing." The look happy together :)

A couple's commission.
I had tons of fun making this art piece for a lovely couple!

I was hoping to get back into the groove of art with these prompts, but life has had other plans. My mother has had major surgery and I've been taking care of her barn animals. Her cat tripped me causing me to hit the ground without catching myself (unless you call my right elbow catching myself.)

Rattober 2025 - 01. Friend-Shaped Rat

#rattober #rattober2025

Ivelyn crashed out on a couch looking sad and/or sick. In her left hand she's holding a half eaten bag of chocolate candies.

Vent Art: Overwhelmed

Being hit with a deluge of emotions with zero time to cope before the next downpour. Been consuming too many chocolate candies, which are definitely not good for my faulty gallbladder.

Ratfolk woman (Abigail) wearing a formal medieval/victorian styled dress. Drawn in a sequence where she sees someone not shown and then speaking to them.

Abigail in formal attire. The party had been asked to attend a formal dinner party and the clothing will be provided. She's not the kind of person to wear these things and she's feeling a bit silly.

Ailana is a capybara woman with dark brown hair with red highlights. She's wearing a dark red camisole top and little bits of jewelry on her wrist. There's a patch of fur missing on her shoulder. Ailana is cuddling her familiar, a giant leech. Ailana looks extremely happy, the leech is making leech noises.

Kat is a dark furred cat woman in even darker clothing. She's looking off to the side with her rifle resting over her shoulder.

Some D&D (Fabula Ultima) characters!

The Capy is my Bloodwitch, Ailana along with her familiar, Nib the leech.

The sniper cat is Katarzyna "Kat" Słoniną, belong to a campaign member. I had sketched her out during a combat and touched up a little afterwards.

I really want to do commissions! But I'm having a hard time with focus with my practice runs I'm doing.

Ivelyn in bed looking sick and tired with an ice pack on her head.

Not feeling so great lately. There's been a lot going on (and still for maybe another couple of months) and has taken my attention away from art unfortunately. I'm really hoping I can regather my focus and mental later on this year.

Sorry for the lapse in art!
