1. Dr. Jane Goodall 1934 - 2025 In 1962, a very young woman named Jane Goodall stepped into the African forest. What she would discover shattered our understanding of the place of human beings in the world. She revealed that chimpanzees use tools, form bonds, and experience emotions.

Of all the best and kindest humans to ever live, Jane Goodall is near the top of my list. Rest in Peace, you beautiful soul. On behalf of the earth, I thank you www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/o...

how i wish you were here! 💙 #KnightsofGuinevere #kog

how I feel sometimes seeing the news

A dream of the fields study

something old... but I still like it ^^ 2018~2019 is around the time I started feeling a little happier with my rendering. #elezen #ffxiv

I went swimming at a spring yesterday and I am already aching to return. The spring was really deep, too. I feel so alive... ;-; also, Austin is such a vibe. I saw an artist doing plein air on one side while another person took a bong hit in the other. Wish I could live there lol.

I love the smell of consequences in the morning. Thank you, @dragoncon.org

Aaand we're ending this series on: 🌸pink🌸! "Just So You Know", cover for the story of the same title by Sarah Hogle. Working with this unusual ternary colour palette was a fun challenge :) And that's it, I hope you enjoyed this rainbow-coloured thread!

late night sketching

Weird aspect ratios? Weird aspect ratios! #furry #cheetah #furryart

Via Variety: 'Guillermo del Toro refused to make #Frankenstein with too much visual effects and green screens: "I want real sets."' variety.com/2025/film/fe...

brushy textures make me happy

I was changing my username on some of my accounts. I debated whether to bother with twitter? There's this tiny sliver of dying cope the platform will be sold off to someone less corrupt and bustling old school art forums will come back and humanity will treat the earth better and.... i'm ok lmao

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

"Pink" Painted in 2019 A homage to all of my pink-haired characters I've made throughout the various MMOs I've played in my life. I met a lot of dear friends in those worlds that extended beyond 😊 I will forever cherish the memories.

Today is my birthday! I turned 39, it's... a lot 😁 As always, the best gift would be sharing my art.

Oh the crocodile tears of thieves who might face legal consequences. “But our company might go down!” Well you shouldn’t have felt entitled to profit off works you do not own, and built your entire business off this racket 🤷🏻‍♀️ Also missing from this article- arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

On the art front: I took a little break. Having AI pushed in my face at every corner has beaten me down and I'm...tired. Villains are now in vogue. The environment is ☠️🥀 But, I miss painting. So, please excuse me while I attempt to reengage my creative brain cell c': I may post some warm ups soon.

Please excuse the non-art posts. I always feel a little odd treating this space like insta, but it's nice to look back on my favorite memories/photos for the month 'w' We gotta do whatever brings us a little joy during troubled times.

Hello all! I'm taking commissions to cover my expenses this summer since my university doesn't pay me enough to survive as a grad student. After rent + fees, I only have $300 to last an entire month. I have opened new options at a range of prices! ko-fi.com/gryffoon/com... #art #commissions

Hey artists, quote with your woman art 🪷

Painting for a Hyth-focused zine I made a while back! A few things I'd do differently now, but I put a lot of work into the background and I'm still pleased with it #ff14 #ffxiv #art #illustration

Reminder: Commissions open! -3 spots available- Please reach out through e-mail only: [email protected] Here's the price sheet (and some example of past pieces in the next post) RTs are always welcome 💖

"My Child" Fan art of "The Talos Principle". I love these games so much. #thetalosprinciple #fanart

omg it feels so nice to have a working drawing tablet again 😭 now to peddle my wares bc this is me right now www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAH4...

Little portrait I sketched on the ipad a while back. ^^ I can't help myself and will give all my characters freckles, moles, or feline print-shaped birthmarks/tattoos 🐈 #oc #art #fantasyart

Tired of AI slop clogging your feed? 😔 What if I told you can get a beautiful hand-made picture from a real organic free-range artist? 👀

Hate this a lot. Value human creators, writers, artists, narrators, editors -- everyone in the chain of making a book and putting it out into the world should be a human being. Humans make art for humans. P.S. fuck AI -- eat shit, artbarf robots www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...

Quote with a fantasy being that's NOT a vampire or a werewolf ! How about a satyr? 🌹

Emet-Selch was one of the characters I was especially proud to work on for the set. One of the greatest «villains » with a fantastic character building. So I paid a lot of attention to his pose and expression here. #MTG #MTGxFinalFantasy #FFXIV

I recently ordered $75 of oil paints, but the package went missing/was stolen and I'm devastated. I'd REALLY like to reorder those paints, so I'm opening $40 grayscale/sepia portrait commissions to cover the cost: ko-fi.com/c/58490ca19d Shares very much appreciated! #art #commissions #characterart

Mermaids 🧜‍♀️ #mermay

Commission work done for Eunoe 🌟🌕 #commissionart

Hair like the ocean, or perhaps like that of a mermaid's (2022) This one will always make me think of my mom as it was the last painting I showed her before she passed away. I was never able to finish it afterwards, but I'm still fond of it. 🤍

Finally managed to finish some more personal art. This was originally a sketch but I got excited about it and decided to make a full illustration.

A spicy water mage I painted last year. I was battling some burn out at the time and had to keep things simple, but I originally wanted to cover her in lots of fish bones 🦴🐟

I saw Sinners for the second time last night because I was so enchanted by this film, it's SO FUCKING GOOD? Please do yourselves a favor and give it a watch on the big screen if you enjoy original stories and music.
