that's the best compliment when an artist gets to have fun <3

Thank you again! Xalthira looks fantastic and so cute 🥰

They did an excellent job with Xalthira! If you want art of your oc/dnd oc, i highly recommend them!!

thank you!
I feel like every day since, I realize some habit I had or weird thing I did was actually ocd and i've been coping for YEARS. I wasted an insane amount of time reassurance checking through compulsion behavior. I can't fault past me for just trying to protect herself from fear<3

and I've had it for most of my life so I've been undiagnosed with ocd for possibly 30+ years. like damn.

ever since I got my ocd diagnosis it just keeps hitting me in waves how much it affected me and that its real.

Thank you! It was a really fun exercise and I can’t wait to take more time with details now that the weather is calming down

I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.

Join me this Friday at 12p est for a 2 hour stream on creature and character concepting with @mooncolony.bsky.social

We will be doing a deep dive into the design decisions behind Woubble and his friends, how you can use similar thought processes to level up your character design, and more!

you know its gonna be a day when your weather app says cancel your afternoon plans and says all 3 types of threats (wind, tornado, hail) are at a 3 out of 5 are likely where I am in central Wisconsin

normally this weather is a bit more spread out and not happening all at once in the same week.

there is a beauty in it, you see. I can imagine anything in the void. there are conversations happening behind your wildest dreams in the abyss. what prophecies and heresies do you hear in your chasm?

a graph that wildly jumps from "it's so over" to "we're so back"

bluesky today

Another tornado warning?? Come on! It’s the same day
This is too many slices - I just want to make a pizza and sleep in peace

Thank you, I hope I can get some rest - the hard part is the power outage makes me hyper aware of the silence lol good thing we keep a travel white noise machine charged for moments like this !

Well now I’m wide awake.

Tornado warning blaring on my phone, siren outside, and a power outage in the middle of the night, scrambling to catch the cats who are freaking out and rushing down to our basement storage room to listen to the wind howl over us

We are safe and it has passed but jeez

I need you to know that being proud of yourself and your art and your life and not hating yourself is an extremely loud form of rebellion that the system does not like. They want us to hate ourselves so we're easier to control and they want us to hate our work so they can pay us less. Don't do it.

I cannot believe I get bullied and herded to bed by my 9 lb 13 year old cat Mini every night. If we are not in bed by her schedule, we are LOST! And she must supervise until we find our way into the bed lol 😂 and for good measure she lays on you till she’s sure you won’t leave the bed

I had some time this morning and I wanted to try and design some clothes for Marak. I was looking at a leather gambeson for this inspo and I like where its headed.

the way the impostor syndrome hits me like a train when this happens (which is all the time because all my artist friends are a 10)

I ended up changing his last name to fit better and now its Kriv which sounds sharper to me.

this is my exact intention thank you this makes me feel really proud lol 😆🥰
