It's so hot now, I miss rainy weekends.

Had some fun revisiting cover drawing after doing my first superhero larp in the UK. 💖✨ #humanartist #larp

In the age of AI that we're living through, I find more and more that I don't like being called talented. I prefer skilled. Saying someone is talented implies they are just good at what they do. Skilled implies that they worked hard to be good, and is more accurate to the the artist's experience.

Going through some files, and I found some unused Steven Universe comic cover sketches! I love Pearl. 💖

My shop is still closing, but I don't have a date yet. I'm waiting to hear back from my shop manager to set a date. Once I have one, I'll post it! The sale will go on until the close.

It is a crime I can't make a cushy living illustrating for indie games. From the latest game jam I participated in:

Lately I've noticed a lack of the usual, "expats go home," stickers and grafiti around Barcelona, and I wonder if sentiments towards US immigrants is changing due to... you know. Everything.

My shop will be closing by summer - if there is anything you'd like to order, please put that in while you can. 🙏 missypena.myshopify.com

I'm so tired and so ready for it to happen, you know?

Stupid sexy Satan statue.

I'm reviving my RedBubble, since I still get sales there and it's helping me towards my goal of making enough income independently to stay in Europe! You can find this on shirts and lots of good stuff now. Also, happy New Moon!! 🌑🖤 ✨ redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Artemis-by-zimmay/180018899/lrcw

May every laid off artist find lucrative work and happiness, so when they realize what a mistake they made and reach out to re-hire, you can say no.

Stop scheduling the No Kings marches on weekends.

death of the author and/or separating art from artist are concepts explaining how the creator has no ownership or control with your engagement with their art, their interpretation of their own work is trivia at best. It is not a statement absolving the creator from their political/criminal activity.

More pretty poisons. 🪻🪻🪻

How I spent a rainy weekend. Drawing poison hemlock.

Prayer circle for Nintendo to bless us basic bitches with a Switch 2 Lite so we can play Pokopia.

Me and every other Pomeranian owner who is also a millennial Pokémon fan has been bombarded with Pombon memes by their friends by now but KEEP EM COMIN.

Another bulba I found while digging through some old art files - Van Gogh Irises x Bulbasaur. 💚 #Pokemon

If you're making Heated Rivalry merch for convention season plz show it off to me, I'm so out of the Artist Alley loop now but I NEED to see y'all's fan merch.

2026 is giving The Tower. So mote it be.

Now more than ever you must believe your own eyes.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

I love LARP. I love immersing myself in another life for a little while. I love putting my phone away and not knowing what's going on in the world for a couple days.

Hello my fellow American artists who have established self-employment and art businesses. I'm just going to leave this here in case you would rather not live in the USA rn, ok? Love you. 🧡 visaguide.world/europe/nethe...

In case any artist friends want to take a look at getting tf out of the US.

Remember when the year started off with Bean Dad and that was like the worst thing? Hahaha. 😭

Every time I'm in the Gothic Quarter.

If you could have one DnD spell IRL, which one would you want?

Flying during this NYE, but I got back into ACNH so I still get a cute little countdown. ✨

2025 had an obvious conservative tilt and I need you weirdos to work double time next year. I need you to hike up your thrifted levis and look me in the eye and promise me you’re gonna get weirder this year to scare the squares. We can’t let them get comfortable.

I think I've been out of the US long enough to be culture shocked by my own culture. A "small" pizza has kept me fed with leftovers for nearly four days now. The smallest coffee I can order is 12oz. Everything is huge... why...

Can't believe this flight doesn't have Nosferatu (2024) this close to Christmas. It's a Christmas movie.

(Art by @missypena.bsky.social ) The Ballerina, Automaton Monk with Thlipit Contestant (Free Archetypes) but we using pigtails instead of a tail. Should be some interesting shenanigans (level 6). Did I mention she also has laser eyes and her handwraps of mighty fist are actually the slippers…

How about No News November?
