Hey, if you don't already follow my art account, please do, also I'm open to doing some work.

When I was in high school I had this one history teacher who spent an inordinate time on the Nazis, he was definitely Nazis 24/7 kinda guy, and when asked why do we Canadians have to learn this he said "so you know when it's about to happen" to a class of immigrants. We thought he was zany.

Anyone tabling at Anime North wanna do an independent OC or IP project stamp rally with me? We can only host free rallies at AN, so the requirement to get the stamp would be to hear our book/game/kickstarter/whatever pitch.

Is it deranged a third of my table this year might be dedicated to one OC?

I remember when I was young I ignorantly thought "well that sorta stuff happened when Nixon was alive, surely now there's no way the people in charge would look at Pinochet, MK Ultra, and Waco and decide to do it again right?"

#knightxprincess but it’s a small remote mountain town sacrificing a maiden to the knight who came back from the crusades very wrong. #knightandprincess #darkromance

Oh and if you made it this far, do me a favour and go read my comic book about surviving unemployment, the city of Toronto and vampirism. It's free to download. ko-fi.com/s/8a3bc12179

The most difficult thing to explain to non-creatives is...the part of the job we DON'T LIKE is the part that makes money. The marketing, the business meetings, the packing, the platform research, the book keeping, and phone calls. We want to keep the operation running so we can work on more art.

Items will be available in my online store, December 12th, 10am EST. They will also be available in Artist Alley Shop Toronto (December 11th, sometime in the afternoon, whenever I finish lunch) and Montreal (whenever FedEx pleases, I will let you know). #thebandghost #ghosttheband #copia #perpetua

The Sun and the Moon. New pins coming soon. #thebandghost #copia #perpetua

Just a sad lonely vampire hunter with no bitches

Spooky Month is upon us hehe #artjamolantern

I feel really tired, I had a great year last year. This year I worked twice as hard and it's a worse year. Artistically I feel I'm doing so much better, but at the end of the day there's metrics that absolutely do make an impact. Some stuff is out of my control but others are mistakes/sacrifices.

Forever yours, Nocturnal Me

No matter how art blocked I am, somehow I always have enough energy to draw Strzygi.

Been drawing more in my sketchbook lately. I guess it's really unprofessional to post unfinished drawings in this ultra branded landscape but application season is over, no one is looking at me anymoooore.

I don't know who needs to hear this...but if a girl running an Etsy shop gives you her IG that's not an invitation to slide into her DMs.

Bad lighting but NO CONSEQUENCES in the suitcase they go. #destiny2

(2022) hey we saw you from across the bar and we hate your vibes #Destiny2 #drifteris 🔹💠

Come on down to Florida, I got somethin' for ya

Imitations of a Perfect Soul

I think something important to remember about the whole Epstein and co. thing is the reason their crimes went on for so long isn't because of a hush hush secret conspiracy, but because the abuse of young women is essential to the concept of a successful man living in luxury our society glamorizes.

Dashcon 2 is what a con should be. No voyeurs, just the most hardcore unhinged neurodivergent people in the immediate area screaming in costumes being free of the outside world.

Recently I feel like I’ve come to face with the limit of what I am currently capable of but I feel this sense of eagerness and zeal to push past it.

Thanks all the Destiny people for coming out to AX, you guys really cleaned me out of pins...and interacting with the community again felt so good, there's a lot going on in my life rn but you guys really took me back to a better time. Black Spindle or Whisper of the Worm?

Destiny items in very limited quantity #animeexpo2025 #animeexpo #axartistalley #axartistalley20925

Hi, I have some new followers, and also for old followers, I have a new art account @margofaust.bsky.social I would really appreciate if you follow that one too for Hazbin, Ghost, Destiny grimdark and gothy originals. My convention schedule is also there.

Sometimes I think I'm burning out because I'm not very active on social media anymore...but I've actually completed a lot of new projects this year. It's kinda hard not getting instant validation, I'll do something and then wait weeks and weeks before I can get any kind of feed back at shows.

Weddy and Strzygi

Happiness is just the byproduct.

Heading off to TCAF @torontocomics.bsky.social at the Mattamy Athletic Centre (Maple Leafs Garden) tomorrow ~

Quit Adobe CC, PDFgear is now my lover, my saviour, and my muse.

I've been holding off on the begging for awhile because I am currently trying to survive my GAUNTLET OF DREAM CONVENTIONS I MANIFESTED, but I am seriously transitioning to becoming a freelance illustrator and would really appreciate it if anyone has any leads or assistance they can share with me.

ko-fi.com/margofaust/s... You can now buy both physical or digital versions of my 26 page comic on my Ko-Fi! The physical version is printed in glorious risograph, while the digital version is pay-what-you-want so you can read it for free if you like!

Thinking of opening commissions

I will be at table i38 in the Industry Area with Anna’s Garden for Anime North! 🌱

At #animenorth2025 this year in ProPlaza!

Gonna pick up THE PROJECT tomorrow, and then I'm gonna crash out on Monday when the reality of my situation finally sets in.

the labor of art is mostly invisible. what you don't see in a finished piece is all the hours of thought it required, all the little discoveries and surprises and tragedies of production. art IS the process. if you aren't interested in the process, then i don't really know why you want to be artist

Don't get me wrong, I also have anti-art school takes all jaded alumnis have, but it really saddens people how many people evaluate the importance of knowledge on it's ability to be subverted into service of capitalism. I learned some 'useless' things but were also important thoughts I treasure.

These guys look kinda cool????????

#destiny #destinythegame drawing. I really enjoyed drawing this one because I got to experiment with how to create different textures using only basic line work.

Gonna attempt another social media detox tomorrow so I can overcome my addiction long enough to complete THE project because at this point I've told so many people about it I'll be professionally embarrassed if I don't deliver.
