Attention Seattle area peeps!

The moth has been donated to STANCE (Seattle Trans and Nonbinary Choral Ensemble) to be part of their silent auction.

Its on the 18th. You can get tickets here: tickets.stanceseattle.org/ticketing/st...

A reference sheet of my dragon-sona! He is a grey-green dragon with a tan underside. He is a wyvern style dragon with only 2 legs and 2 wings. He has 3 sets of horns on his head. One set points forward off of his eyebrows, another curls around his ears to point forward and the last point behind his head like your typical dragon horns. He has a little bit of fur behind his head, on his chin, elbows, and tip of his tail. There are small bright blue markings on his face, tail and wings. He has green eyes. He also has a human form which shares his eyebrow horns and has an optional tail. The human form is wearing clothes with a similar color scheme to the dragon’s scales. The clothing style has a fantasy vibe. The character Info on the refsheet reads: Moss Info Dragon Height: 11 ft (top of head) Dragon Length: 30 ft Wingspan: 60 ft Human Height: 5ft 4in He/Him

Thinking about updating my refsheet and realized I’ve never even posted it here so here it is!

He doesn’t need a full redesign or anything but I really want to draw him with improved anatomy and more lizard and bird inspiration.

The funds raised from my moth (and other art that will be auctioned at the showcase!) goes to supporting their organization and rent for their rehearsal space.

Great opportunity to get cool art while supporting an awesome org!

Some of the coolest people i know are trans and my life is richer in the knowing. Happy trans day of visibility!

unfriendly reminder that jkr donated £70k that went towards the changing of actual law in the u.k to define what a woman is and isn't. if you're at all a harry potter fan still despite all this, then i urge you to get the fuck over it and quickly

A purple and white dragon. The dragon has features inspired by a king cobra, mainly the head shape and neck hood. The dragon is wearing a crown, lots of jewelry, ribbons and a scarf. There is no background except for a halo around its head. It is in a pose that makes it look like it is floating.

A drawing of Rex Lapis from Genshin Impact. Rex Lapis is a long brown dragon with glowing orange crystal elements and large orange glowing horns. He is flying in front of Liyue Harbor (also from genshin impact). It is night time so the lanterns shine brightly and you can see stars in the sky.

A fiery dragon in flight, bursting through bright clouds (or fire, its kinda up to your interpretation tbh I just wanted it to look cool). Its head is pointed up as it breathes fire, you can see its bright yellow tongue and shiny teeth. There are stars in the sky in the distance. This character is not my own and belongs to Qualeo on toyhouse.

Hello to all the new peeps from the dragon artist starter pack!

I’m a very slow artist but I make a variety of things, expect some sewing/embroidery in between the art things!

Here’s a few of my older dragon artworks I haven’t posted here yet!

I HATE conventions they always give me the “I NEED TO MAKE ART OR I’ll EXPLODE” infection. WDYM I can’t be around art all the time and have to go to my full time job and act like my creativity brain isn’t bursting at the seams 😭.

Anyways I went to ECCC for the first time and it was fun :)

WATCH THIS, esp if you are queer (Trans esp) its def a heavy movie, but does a good job of communicating the feeling of being trans but not knowing it. Ppl i know tend to either love or feel uncomfy abt it but imo its very worth the watch.

A profile view of a purple dragon with its wings held up like it might be about to take off. The background is a a bunch of nebulous clouds littered with stars. One directly behind the dragon’s head shines especially bright.

A large dark blue dragon standing atop several castle towers in a guarding pose. Its mouth is open in a roar, glowing like it is about to breathe fire. The dark grey castle is framed by a sunset background. Each Castle tower has a different pride flag on top.

A green dragon with large spikes down its back. It’s pose implies its floating (There isn’t really a reason for that I just thought it looked cool). It is wearing various beads, ribbons and jewelry. The bottom right corner of the piece glows red, the light bouncing off of some of the dragon’s scales. The background is green with some framing elements.

A blue and pink dragon flying among sunset clouds that share its colors. The bottom left corner of the piece is covered by a tree that looks black in the dusk light.

My feed has been a lot of non-dragon crafts lately but I still draw them a lot and would love to be added!

Reposting these since I just made another moth! Here’s all my past ones :)

TYSM 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Thank you! 💚

A one eyed sphinx moth made with beaded embroidery sitting on a blue background. The forewings are made of various bugle beads in a variety of tan and brown colors. The hindwings are pink and purple with a blue and black eyespot in the center of each. Both hindwings are lined with a row of white and pearl beads. The body of the moth is made with tan and brown threads to match the color of the wings, its head is fuzzy. It has a pair of antennae made out of shiny brown beads and black sequins.

A front facing angle of the moth drawing focus to its face where you can see it has two blue beads for eyes. You can see the edge of the white fleece fabric lining the back of it.

The back of the moth. It is lined with a white/light grey fleece fabric and has a pin back in the center of it.

I have made a thing again!!

MOTH

This one is based on a One eyed sphinx moth (with a little artistic liberty taken on the colors to match the beads I had on hand)

#embroidery #moth

I noticed this immediately but my brain is actually cooked so I’m an outlier.

Also fun fact the ancient trait metagross from ancient origins is in the final room of the pokemon league implying its Steven’s even tho he’s not pictured!

Thank you artists in my phone for continuing to make art despite the horrors. I am stuck home recovering from a surgery but seeing ppl continue to create and protest in their own way is helping me stay in a less negative mindset. It might feel small but supporting each other is part of resistance.

For those who can, here are links to donate directly to local efforts on the ground resisting ICE's terrorizing of Minneapolis. Let me know what you donated to where, and I'll match it until I get a panicked call from my bank!

A digital painting of an ice cube, followed by several hands closed over each other with water pouring from them. Bold text on the art reads: "ICE MELTS".

so don't get too comfortable.

hi, cis folks!

this week, with some democrat votes, 2 anti-trans bills passed the house. one bans medicaid funds for trans youth care, the other proposes jail time for providers.

they haven't passed the senate, but dems may need convincing to vote no on both.

tap into the 🧵for a quick action.

Thisss, they can’t deal with the ups and down of having a skill and bettering it, sometimes u make shit art and its great cuz its part of the process of getting better at it.

solidarity with trans people and death to fascism

I’ll try and one of those, thanks!

(though I just ended up using acrylic paint and a fine brush for this one but it’ll be helpful next time!)

A purple and pink dragon over a space background with black and purple clouds and stars.

I posted that last WIP too soon because its done already!!

Hoping to paint a few more dragons to give to my friends this holiday season :)

Feels so good to finish something again!

#dragon #watercolor #art

An in-progress painting of a purple/pink dragon over a dark purple/pink/blue cloudy background.

Am I doing it right??!???

ok but seriously anyone have recommendations for white pens cuz I wanna draw stars on the background when I’m done!

#dragon #watercolor #art

A sketch of a dragon on watercolor paper. The edges of the paper are covered with masking tape so that the final piece will have a blank edge.

Starting a water color painting! No clue what I’m doing but I’m liking the drawing :)

Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

Random Idea: Can we start calling AI “artists” something else like,,, idk AI sloppers or something lmao. they surely aren’t artists, and even with the quotations I don’t want to give them any shred of validation that they might be an artist in any way.

A reminder this holiday season and always
