Finished the doodle! 🌟 #art #digitalart #procreate #BlackSky

Had a little bit of good news at the end of a very difficult week! 🌟 That ounce of relief gave me just enough mental space to draw something. 😅 #Art #DigitalArt #Procreate #BlackSky

"I'm so thankful that such sweet people like my silly doodles. I can't wait to draw mo IS THAT CHIITAN?"

There are some strange (super unethical, potentially illegal, and incredibly stressful) things happening at my workplace, and I can't really talk about it all in detail because that would be a HIPAA violation. 🙃

It's been a long, exhausting week, but thank God for brioche donuts! #art #procreate #BlackSky

Portrait of my mom that I drew last year for her birthday. Mother's Day is often hard, but it also serves as a reminder to pause and reflect on the wonderful person who raised me. I hope to draw her better in the future. Much love to anyone else who struggles on Mother's Day <3 #procreate #BlackSky

John Oliver on the Supreme Court: "It was a 6-3 decision in the case of White People vs. Everybody — and you’ll never guess who they ruled in favor of”

Every Miku is Canon

As Mother's Day approaches, I'm reminded that my mother, who claimed she didn't like cartoons, one day came home wearing an Inuyasha shirt (Inuyasha's face and name were very prominent on it), and I never got a clear explanation for how that happened.

I don't often talk about fandom stuff, and I don't reallly plan on saying very much about the TADC VA situation. But one thing that has become apparent in light of everything is that racism is very, very alive in the fandom.

I work in healthcare (mostly mental health work), and one of the most difficult and hard to swallow things is that sometimes the people we help, the very people who need the most support, are not necessarily kind or understanding.

It frustrates me to no end that I often have to go the extra mile just to prove that I'm competent, but a megalomaniac and his ilk can literally destroy a country and flaunt their incompetence on the world stage and receive absolutely no pushback because they're rich men with a different skin color.

A semi-mindless doodle. A friend mentioned stargazing recently, and it reminded me of how enchanted by stars and constellations I was as a child 🌟🌙 #art #digitalart #procreate #BlackSky

I think I have cried more in the last three months than in all of 2025. :') The year has brought some truly painful losses, societally and personally. But I'm holding onto the hope that things can and will get better, eventually. 💜

keep making art, don't give up on it, your art will always be better than slop by default, so keep going!!

:(

Life has been a lot, and drawing is hard, but I'm thankful to have the chance to be a little creative! 🌟 #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

Randomly remembered a Pokémon ZA doodle from a couple of months ago! I absolutely love creature catching/mon-tamer style games, though I have mixed feelings about ZA overall. #art #digitalart #fanart #Procreate #BlackSky

I don’t really have anything new or clever to say about the horror of bombing civilians. What more needs to be said. There’s no glory or beauty in the destruction. I don’t think it proves how strong and noble our country is. Just how cruel, ruthless and heartless it can be

Artists! Show us how you draw Black women!

A doodle inspired by sunsets! I'm looking forward to longer summer days that lazily stretch into the night. 🌇 #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

Remembered something silly my husband said a couple of months ago. 🧡 #art #comics #Procreate #BlackSky

Today has been difficult, but drawing is fun <3 #art #digitalart #Procreate #Blacksky

Hey, friends! @ziibiing.com and the awesome folks at StandWithMinnesota have launched #keepMNhoused! Check out keepMNhoused.com and kick in to help folks affected by ICE stay in their homes! ALSO, artists, please join the call for art to help spread the word! (art here by the great @trungles.com)

After years of referrals, late-night Googling, and lurking on subreddits about autism, I have been formally diagnosed! It feels both cathartic and a bit strange, and I still have a lot of things I'm processing, but I'm thankful to finally have answers <3 #art #digitalart #BlackSky

If you're wondering how this person responded: - They suggested that Kirk was 'taken out of context' - They insisted that no one is 'born' gay - They stopped responding when I sent direct quotes of Kirk and my own experiences with racism - They said I was one of their favorite students. Go figure.

Me, after talking about the very thing I have a Master's degree and several credentials in: "Um, but that's just my opinion. I'm not too sure." Imposter syndrome is so!!!

Immigrants are not taking anything from you. Destroy the cop in your head, stop listening to propaganda. They're being kidnapped, killed, beaten and left on the side to perish. A lot of them don't even have all the benefits/jobs you claim they're stealing

This week has been especially exhausting, and it's not quite over yet. Still, I'm looking forward to the weekend. 🌙 Have a doodle! I think I prefer it without color. #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

Flower girl, completed! 🌸🌷 I somewhat miss the more muted colors and might make a second version. Motivated largely by my love of peonies. #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

The work I do is sometimes hard, but I got to hear someone who cried on the phone last week say "Thank you" with so much relief and joy that it made the stress feel worth it.

A comic about going to therapy and accepting the parts of myself that try their best, even if they get some things wrong. <3 #art #comics #Procreate #BlackArt

every time someone has asked me the last week or so about priorities it is rental assistance. please please please people need rent to stay in their homes. scroll down to rent relief funds and pick something www.standwithminnesota.com

Your worth is not determined by your health. Your worth is not determined by your job, marital status or economic output. Everyone is deserving of shelter, food, healthcare and social supports. No one should have to “earn them”. When basic needs are met, society is better off.

Flower girl. 🌸🌷 #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

ICE funding has passed the house, but it still has to go through the senate, now is your chance to call! 5calls.org makes it very easy to find the contact info for your reps, and provides scripts. #abolishice #callyourreps #usapolitics #iceout #politicalart

No because any black scholar, feminist scholar, (writer, thinker) could tell you it’s never been about gun rights, constitutionalism, states rights, or whatever other bs The only consistent underlying ideology of the right is the violent and material oppression of marginalized people. Period.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Grief is incredibly strange, because although I understand that the funeral was a few days ago, a small, stubborn part of my brain expects those regular, random phone calls where my grandma calls just to say hi and ask how our dog ("little puppy", as she would put it) is doing.

Wanted to draw something cheerful and cutesy 💗🫧 Although pink is probably my favorite color to use in art, I never actually wear it! #art #digitalart #Procreate #BlackSky

Reminding myself that it's okay to start over. 🫧 #art #digitalart #wip #Procreate #BlackSky

Thank you to everyone who left a kind word or simply sent a loving thought my/my family's way. Loss is strange. Less than a month ago, my husband was wondering what to bake Grandma for Christmas. Less than two weeks ago, we were singing together. It hurts. But I'm thankful for every sweet memory.

My grandma is gone. I kissed her head two hours ago. And she's gone.

Bit the bullet and sent a message to someone I personally know who's married to a conservative rep. I know and have met both of them, which made their descent into MAGA so disturbing. It might be pointless, but I hope hearing from someone they once knew shifts something. Anything's worth trying.

Saw a post today about how some people can feel like they fall apart when they're finally safe, and it reminded me that I began to cry and feel angry much more often after getting married and settled. Not because my marriage was or is bad, but because I finally felt safe to actually *feel* things.

First doodle of the New Year! I'm pleased with how her hair is turning out. #art #digitalart #Procreate #WIP #BlackSky

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
