@armd39.bsky.social suggested that the brushbuddy's necklace should be shelesty bells so I've updated it. :D What an absolutely brilliant idea! #witchhatatelier #whaoc #brushbuddy #brushbug

I did a few climbs and then cheated and worked on my brushbuddy a bit - tentatively named it Lokshyn but that might change?

I already bought a new (used) camera and a new light so I probably won't hire a pro photographer since I've already sunk money into doing it myself. When you're a self employed artist you have to have so many extra skills beyond just making art, it's very time consuming and frustrating. 😔

This close 🤏 to hiring a professional photographer for my product photos because I hate doing it so much.

I have so many unfinished art fight attacks but my wrist is dying AND I'm going climbing tonight but I JUST WANT TO DRAW TT____TT (Also distracted drawing the new witch hat atelier oc and their brushbuddy companion that I'm working on with another artist and I can't wait to share them!!!)

*free art!* Friends! I’m so grateful for the pals I’ve met and growth I’ve experienced over my time in the fandom! To celebrate, I’m hosting a giveaway that will hopefully help push me past the 500 followers mark for the first time! Just follow the three simple steps below :3 winner drawn after AC

Someone requested Project Hail Mary from our library and I couldn't resist!

A mossy sphinx Myshk for @splitgillstudio.bsky.social #artfight

#ArtFight revenge on @nutcaseart.bsky.social! Love me a green red panda character (unsurprisingly)

#ArtFight revenge on @bargonauts.bsky.social of the sphinx version of his character, Simon! #artfight2026 #teamtragedy #artfightrevenge #artfightattack #sphinxoc

Had a thought for an art fight attack and I'm hoping I can pull it off so I'm posting the sticky note doodle here for accountability.

Some more! @purropal.bsky.social @plushsyndrome.bsky.social @roccoco-co.bsky.social @splitgillstudio.bsky.social #art #artfight #artfight2026

Posted that doodle of Petra earlier and realized that Petra and James Ortiz have similar hair vibes. I knew there was a reason I liked this man 😂

My favorite part of ArtFight is all the new artists I get to discover.

I have like two more profile images to update but come find me at artfight.net/~SplitGillSt... on #TeamTragedy! #artfight #artfight2026 #AF2026

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital

Also I need this cloak STAT. #wha #witchhatatelier

Made a #ProjectHailMary meme after reading this line from the book: "Of course, it's not like I'm short on Taumoeba. I have a bunch of them /where my fuel used to be/."

We present: The Art of #InverteFest - April 2026 Edition A digital art book showcasing the work of 100 artists from around the world, in celebration of overlooked invertebrate fauna. Thank you to the artists who contributed to our book! Download: drive.google.com/file/d/1RJ5m... #Art #SciArt

An attempt was made 😅 I slapped some stripes on this cutie patootie tiger from AileenDoll but ran out of time so I do feel like they're a bit rushed. But still, 3/4 blank dolls painted right before the con isn't bad! . #bjd #balljointeddoll #aileendoll #anthrobjd #tinybjd

Another doll mostly done for #NYCdollcon! My @cocoriang.bsky.social pocha ended up being a totally different design than I had planned so now I need a new name! Feel free to drop some suggestions in the comments! #bjd #balljointeddoll #dolls #cocoriang #anthrobjd #anthro #tinybjd

Commissions I did over @bewhiskeredcon.org! It was a pleasure getting to make some traditional art for folks for the first time in a long time~ For @nickthedragonnc.bsky.social, @siwius.bsky.social, and @splitgillstudio.bsky.social. Big thanks to y’all for commissioning me. 🧡🫂

I don't know if I'll be able to finish all my dolls but I figured I could at least get my @ybeedoll.bsky.social crow kit presentable for #NYCDollCon! There are so many other little details I want to add but if I can't get to it before I'm happy with where we're at! #bjd #balljointeddoll #dolls

Yoooo this was the most fun panel! I'm so glad it was post dealers den hours because I would have been so sad not to go! (Also my baby Matchacha won the runway! :D )

Gen-AI has no place in any creative industry. It is designed to replace skilled creatives and cannot and should not co-exist with actual hardworking people. No excuses. No claims of time-saving or efficiency will ever outweight that its primary use is to not have to pay artists/writers/creatives.

Also - updated my convention labels - I'll be vending @carolinafurfare.bsky.social but unfortunately I won't be going to @fursonacon.bsky.social this year unless funds change. If you'll be attending NYC Doll Con though, please let me know! I'd love to say hello in person!

Absolutely beautiful sketches I got in trades from BeWhiskered! Koicha from @elvenhound.bsky.social and Aurion from Cedar of @camphowl.com! Absolutely love both of these and am so delighted to add them to my collection!

MY BABIES ARRIVED! Their eyes follow you as you move and they have bouncy paws/hands! They are double sided, though the eyes only work on the front side. The paw can be placed on either side of the character! #kpopdemonhunters #derpytiger #redpanda #axolotl #fox #arcticfox #animalart

Also everyone should go follow my amazingly talented friend Pooka who is the GOAT (literally!)

The other day I saw a bjd pro-artist blog post an AI video of their dolls. Today, I went to follow a ceramicist grant recipient & saw the stupid AI caricature trend. I just don't understand it & it's exhausting trying to explain to people, especially artists??? why AI use is bad on so many levels.

It's the 3rd of January 1939, your name is professor James Smith and you are staring at a drawing of a fish. It's not a regular fish. It is a completely impossible fish.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous this is worth sharing and educating people about

I hate that I tend to do well at late night markets because I am not a late night person. I want to be in bed at 9pm & instead the market ends at midnight & I'm not home until 1am & it suuucks. (Thank you though to everyone who came out to Oddville and got stuff from me, even if I was sleepy!)

Just so y'all know, I got the new bumper stickers in and the magnet version is doing super well, even through some pretty bonkers weather! Anyway if you're a fan of #matcha in all its forms, both sticker and magnet versions are up in the shop now! #matchalatte #matchatea #bumpersticker #shopsmall

A new landscape in an illustrative style has been added to my shop. A Winter Night is now available on Folksy and would be a lovely Christmas gift... folksy.com/items/8588846 #Landscape #Winter #Night #OriginalArt #Drawing #Painting #Artwork #GiftIdeas #ArtShop #ShopIndy #ChristmasGifts #bsnm

You ever just see someone's art and it just rewires your brain a little?
