Illustration of various birds wearing winter clothes, A House Martin, Dark Eyed-Junco, and Fairy Wren wearing sweaters, standing on pine tree branches are clustered at the top. Grouped in the middle are a morning dove, yellow rumped warbler, and cedar waxwing wearing orange and red ribbons. A bottom are a Pyrrhuloxia, Northern Flicker, and Bull Finch wearing scarves.

All the birds together. I'd like to update this into a true print...soon!

She is surrounded by ornate frames with peonies and leaves decorating them. The text reads: "Art Nouveau Brushes: a few Procreate brushes by Katu." It includes two links: "ko-fi.com/katu" and "witchbriar.com".

This image features two close-ups of the cover image in screenshots taken directly from procreate. The example on the left shows the liner in better detail, and the example on the right shows more of the hatching brush. 

The text reads "Natural-looking lineart. Subtle textures and imperfections. Uniform parallel line hatching that won't give you carpal tunnel."

A product photo of a handmade gnome phone charm with a long glittery green hat and a squat glittery green body, a round pink nose, and a long white beard. It is made from polymer clay. The gnome is dangling at a slight angle in front of a plain white background and ever so slightly out of focus.

I've been working on taking product photos for Etsy, starting with this glittery green gnome phone charm and despite not being good enough for it, I've fallen in love with this photo and decided to post it here!

Displaying three different spring-themed coloring pages with dinosaurs on a dark blue background with a bright blue grid frame around it. One has T rexes, clovers, and rainbows, the other features a brontosaurus with a rainbow and a pot of gold, and another features a bouncing triceratops with the text "spring has sprung!"

Happy St Patrick's Day! Might I offer you cute clovers, dinosaurs, and rainbows for cozy coloring time?

Support indie autistic artists and human made art for good luck! (b/c fk those A/I coloring books, they exist and make me so infuriated)

Art piece of a digital painting of a dunnock, a small mostly beige and brown bird. It is shown from the side so that you can see the pattern of the feathers on its wings and side belly. It is standing on a branch against a blurred background which are both less realistic, but the bird is done in a photorealistic style with great attention paid to detail.

For #JanuArty today, texture! Don't usually work in a realistic style but I was pleased with the textures I was able to achieve in this one as a challenge. #art

Let me know if there's any bingo spot you're most looking forward to, or if you make your own!! 💙

Art Vs. Artist

It's been an exciting year for me art wise, as I finally had the courage to start selling my work! I've made many new fellow artist/small business friends!

I can't wait to see what this new year brings and how my small business will grow!
