Single panel comic of a black cat hiding in a pile of leaves. Text reads: Hide, seek, surprise

#repostyourart day 8, Autumn

This one was a deep search. I don’t do a lot of setting images it seems.

I did a sprint of little Positivity Bunny comics during an art a day thing

Enjoy 🍂🐈‍⬛

A green alien looking cat, holding a cup. Text bubble, black with white text: ElsEwhErE

Different perspectives from different places can offer insight a local connection could not.

New character unlocked?

I share these little comics on P@treon & ko-fi first ;3

#positivitybunny #comic

One panel comic of a black cat in recoil from stepping on a slug. The for looks disgusted. The slug is dead. Test reads: Spring brings slugs… tread carefully.

The weather finally sorted itself out, so now the local wildlife is really getting around.

Four panel comic Panel one: A bunny is taking out an air fryer bucket, the contents are dino nuggies. Text: This song and dance is familiar… Bomb, justify, patriotism, bomb… Rinse, repeat, change skin, rinse, repeat. I wonder if I am going mad… Panel two: Bunny is standing in a void space, holding a plate of Dino nuggies. Text: People around me are seeing it. I feel like I am going mad… We are donating, calling, sharing info… We can’t all be mad… We can see the harm. We can’t all be mad. Panel three: Bunny head in front of a tv screen. The Bunny’s head is back lit to the POV. Text: I have heard the news sound like this before. I feel like the world is going mad… Panel four: Bunny seated on couch, plate of nuggies in lap. Text: The world maybe going mad Speech bugle from TV: … The army general has said the strike was biggly… But at least chickum nuggies are the same. Speech bubble from Bunny: The last one spoke better…

I remember walking out of my bedroom at night & telling my parents in the dinning room “We are at war.”

Bush had announced it. It was reported by the DJ.

The news right now rhymes. I am catapulted back to being 14 & aware the world I thought I knew was madder than I expected.

#positivitybunny

Cartoon of a rabbit under a blanket looking at a phone screen. Text: It is hard, to be positive. Or to create. While those who think they can eat money kick off another military action. More children will die… And resistance feels Sisyphean. The image is rendered in red pen.

Comic of a rabbit hoeing a garden bed. Text: But I know the garden of creativity must be tended. Or humanity and kindness will starve.

Little drawing of a rabbit, having a thousand yard stare. Text: And I refuse to surrender to that future quietly. Nolite te Bastardes Carborundum

Parts of this script feel like a repeating nightmare.

I did not realize how loud that roar was as background noise.

(I know the Latin from The Handmaid’s Tale is not like, correct. But read your banned books)

#positivitybunny #comic

A very gruntled bunny in a hoodie with a mug. This is the most gruntled I have ever drawn them.

A happy daylight savings
To those who celebrate

#positivitybunny

Yes, I am still drawing my funny little bunny guy

These comics go up on Patreon/Ko-fi first :>

#positivitybunny #comic #mentalhealth

Three panels of a comic Panel 1: Rabbit covering their ears. There is staticy scribbles around. Text: The world is very loud right now. Panel 2: The Rabbit is still covering their ears, the static is more intense. Text: It is scary (by design). It is overwhelming (by design). You can feel yourself shutting down (by design). Panel 3: The rabbit is very small in a sea of static like scribbles. Text: And it is easy to feel so, insanely small and alone.

3 panels of a comic Panel 1: The rabbit is covering their head, crouched down. Static around them. Text: Forces outside of yourself want you frozen still. They want you shutting DOWN. Panel 2: A black cat circles around the rabbit, the static is fading. Text: Remember, you are not alone. You have support. Panel 3: Rabbit is gardening, planting seeds. Text: Lean into your community (found, built, or born)

3 panels of a comic Panel 1: Rabbit loading a box into a small free pantry. Text: They will still be loud, but you can tune into others. Plan, discuss, read. Join a book club. Donate to a food pantry. Visit your local library. Meet your neighbor. Panel 2: Rabbit, a black cat, and a black dog all seem to be yelling/barking/hissing. Rabbit is holding a sign. Dog has a red bandana on the neck. Cat is fluffed up. Rabbit’s sigh has a red crossed out symbol over some text reading ICE, KKK, and the swastika. Text: They will still be loud. But, we will be louder. Panel 3: A yellow black eyed Susan bloom. Text: Resist, Persist, Thrive

The world is very scary right now. We are watching horrible things on electric rocks.

There were not video cameras in the camps last time. There are cameras now.

Pour back into your local community. Look for the helpers, offer them aid.
There are many of us.

A pair of tiny drawings in tiny frames. The drawings are of little black bunnies with text. One says “You got this!” In a speech bubble, as the rabbit looks over their shoulder at the viewer. The other shows the bunny, looking up at some small stars and the text “Shine On” underneath.

An illustration of a small bunny, looking up at some small stars and the text “Shine On” underneath.

I was accepted into a show of miniature work and decided to draw and send a pair of Positivity Bunnies in some tiny tiny frames I have.

This pair will be at the Big ideas show being hosted at Spectra Art Space in Denver, Colorado along with the Ember and Flame.

#positivitybunny #ishawayart

Alt text: A cartoon rabbit faces away from the viewer. Text reads: Be kind to yourself The world is harsh enough. Full caption from other places I post: I am watching persons in my communities struggle. I have been watching a genocide across the ocean through an electric rock. I am watching my government show that cruelty is the point. I am needing to remind myself to be kind. Not just to others, but to myself. You cannot pour from an empty cup. Do what you can. You, yes you are as deserving of kindness and grace as anyone else who seems to have it ‘harder’.

#positivitybunny #comic

A three panel comic featuring a black bunny and a unicorn anthro. Panel 1: Bunny sitting beside unicorn, unicorn is lying on their back Bunny: Did it hurt? Unicorn: Did what hurt? Panel 2: POV behind the bunny’s head, we can see the unicorn’s face Bunny: When they showed you they didn’t love you. Panel 3: Split panel, repeat of the first panel between bunny and unicorn, then a close up on the unicorn, a tear rolling down cheek. Unicorn: Yes. Yes it did.

It doesn’t seem to get easier. But the pain is familiar.

Actions speak louder than words. Always.

Comic if a rabbit, in an ocean under a full moon. Text reads: Ready to release some ions

Took the first beach walk of the season last night.

I feel like I am behind on many things (mostly self directed)

Three panel comic of a rabbit mending some clothing. Panel 1: Rabbit is visibly sewing. Text: Learning things takes time. Panel 2: Rabbit is frustrated, a knot in the thread and bubble of angry squiggles above their head. Text: And is often frustrating Panel 3: Rabbit showing off their mended garnet. Text: But that effort is often, well worth it.

Honestly, the last couple of months learning & practicing how to mend clothing has gotten me feeling powerful.

A skill of any kind takes time, but it is so rewarding.

A black cat making a disgusted face. On the ground is a squished thing. Text: Spring brings slugs… tread carefully.

Even with the snow like 10 inches deep I am thinking about spring… and what other critters that will bring.

It is cold, the world is gross, and my brain is full of bees. But I did change my socks.

One panel comic of a rabbit, sweeping. Text reads: Start where you can…

Just, start.

Begin. It may be faultering, it may be ugly, but it is better than never starting at all.

This is as much a reminder to myself as it is to others.

#positivitybunny #comic

A comic of a black cat and rabbit. The cat is sleeping, the rabbit is leaning against them reading a book. Text reads: Shared quiet time

The no man’s land between the Winter Holiday and New Years is always a weird time of year.

The long autumn weather has broken. The days are shorter, and nights are colder.

I am dreaming of the spring and ocean waves.

A black cat approaches bunny. Text reads: Cat: Hey, haven’t see you lately. Bunny: hi. Yeah, I have been dealing with a lot.

Close up on Cat, text reads: I know. Life can be very busy sometimes.

Cat rubbing against bunny, just the heads. Cat says, “I missed you though.” Heart beside bunny’s head.

It has been a weird year. It has been an emotionally heavy year.

Thank you for staying. Thank you for sticking around. Thank you for letting me recover.

I am not 100% through things, but my steps are less unsure.

It is that time of year again.
Windy, chilly, and perfect for staying under blankets.

It has been a good time in Europe so far. The cheap good beer is an amazing thing on top of spaces and area.
