I am not sure why, but my business IG is missing, and the hundreds of pages of help articles do absolutely nothing but link in a perpetual circle. Guess I should take this as a sign to ditch the last vestiges of usable Meta entirely... RIP, all those IG art sales!

Happy international wolf day, here are some silly wolf sketches!

Sketching some shapes

Professor Plum

Miss you, Tugrik

Happy tiger day!

Happy whale and dolphin day!

Character I made a long time ago, referenced from life drawing of Spotti's real pet serval. I'll always remember him when I look at this.

Rest in peace, Spottacus

Thanks for being alive today, all of you. This year has been especially hard, but I've been helping myself by keeping up a page to honor those people that I really miss. t.me/memorialpage

relaxed fit

What creature would you like to see me draw?

Twins were rescued on the 13th 11 years ago when their mom's life was taken by a superstitious person, and no one wanted the kittens. My horrible ex was the original owner, but tried to throw them on the street and lock the door when she left, so now they are registered to me. Happy Friday the 13th.

Commission for the backstory of a protogen named Nuke

Commission with and without frame

Posting all my backlogged scan piles to FA, more tomorrow as well.

Making progress on commissions

an idea I played around with for a story I was writing

The last year and especially the last 6 months have aged me rapidly... Huge obstacles have been slamming me daily, finally most of them are over this week. I have the next 4 weeks of my brain back to finish all owed commissions. Glad to have energy again, even if it's extra wrinkly energy.

Tomorrow I'm going to send out progress on commishes. The last 6 months have been so difficult. Next time I do a local convention table, I will have to limit orders per day, including after-con delivery volume. PacAnthro was the most orders I've gotten in my entire career. And so complex. Thank you.

Life, if my brother worked

Hard to work on commissions when there is chaos. Neighbor's workers came into my yard unannounced and ripped up all the plants I had started for spring. Gardening was my attempt at finding peace, and now, I can hardly look outside without feeling grief. And they made a door that locks on their side.

online art groups new moderation rules

Celebrating 13 years since our first date, 18 years since our first pic together, 22 years since flirting the first time <3 I appreciate a slow burn to savor every special moment~

commission wip that likes to blow up my graphics card

Things have been going better, I felt relaxed and comfortable and doodled a bit! Grateful for the little things right now.

Wishing luck to do well (a dragon wishes it so you will definitely succeed)

meme inspired by sudden impulse to bother a cute stoat

You would think a giant dragon would remember to eat, but...

Cats are both okay ;_;

Both my cats in surgery today, I'm pacing like a caged tiger hoping it all goes well, unable to concentrate on work or artwork rn

Very happy this one turned out well, the colors didn't bleed at all

moar commissions mailed out *flop*

Sketching vs Rendering

Concept preliminary sketch vs. first WIP sent to client - my goal was to add realism and fill up more of the page, without changing the pose.

First time drawing a wolf taur :D

6 remaining commissions in my queue, I am so grateful of your support and proud of the quality

snake caduceus

Snake arms and legs, or no?

Some snakes in marker

Rest of the traditional pieces should be mailing out on Monday, digital piece WIPs will be sent this weekend!

The dragon hangs on tight to the snake as we bid farewell to 2024! Happy year of the snake and thank you @chaosmine.bsky.social and @emeraldcorgi.bsky.social for the best holiday I've ever had and good memories that will last me forever.

Doing prepaid graphite illustrations this weekend, and feeling kind of glad I'm not a dealer for FC but still took the time off from the office.

last of the badges mailed, here is a digital one I really loved working on!

Heavy commission workload! Appreciate all the support. All wood pieces from PacAnthro are done and mailed, digital badges are next! After that, I'll be switching to the larger traditional pieces, and finally I'll wrap up digital pieces that have full backgrounds. I am closed until mid-Jan to finish.

huge commission that will end up being digital, I just have an easier time with pencil sketching

Customer brought their little kid to the con in a fun raptor mask and asked for a badge. Unfortunately the kid dropped it on their way home. I made a new one and mailed it out with their other post-con orders, as a surprise. I think it turned out very similar to the photo of the first one!

Really enjoyed getting to draw a noodle dragon, I think next time I will make some ahead of time so folks can just pick it out

Okay pine was very hard to draw on, probably will stick to birch. Still like how this came out tho
