Three years of Brisbane Illustration Fair, four times sharing my art, meeting new creative friends 🎨🌿 Happy to see my returning customers. This year, I even met a few lovely people asking about my cozy game “Slumbering Woods” I’m working on with @chunkyquail #indiegamedev #artmarket #cozyart

Our artist @birdmagician.com made these stickers based on the character animation sprites. I hope you like it. #indiegames #gameart

Found a little mushroom on my forest walk and couldn’t resist bringing it to life on paper 🌿🍄This piece a quiet reminder of slowing down and noticing small wonders, like the red triangle slug a native of Australia’s east coast that wandered into my picture. #watercolour #naturedrawing #mushroomart

Well, would you look at that - Slumbering Woods is popping up at the Debut Festival 2025! Find us on Steam, where we’ll be quietly fruiting among a crop of fresh games. Lovingly cultivated by @gamedevist.bsky.social, who has an eye for sprouting talent. #IndieGame #CozyGame #DebutFest

In an astonishing turn of events, the universe has deemed Slumbering Woods worthy of support! We’ve officially received funding from Screen Australia’s latest round of games grants - alongside 25 other brave and brilliant teams. We’ll use it to grow mushrooms and to tame bugs.

We’re ready for #BitSummit! Say hi if you spot our Slumbering Woods t-shirts!

Quick sketching around Kyoto #sketching #quicksketch #ink

So happy to get to Kyoto to attend #BitSummit and other events with @chunkyquail.com

So happy to see the capsule art I created get a mention! #SlumberingWoods

We’re really happy to be part of this showcase!

In Slumbering Woods, plants are not in a hurry. They don’t care that you have other things to do. They don’t care if you’re waiting around with a watering can. They grow when they feel like it - and that takes days. Patience, dear gardener. The woods move at their own pace. #ScreenshotSaturday

Super excited that Slumbering Woods is part of ❄️ @frostygamesfest.com! Catch the premiere Sunday, June 8 at 9 AM AEST — lots of amazing ANZ games in the mix! #indiegame #cozygame #cuteart #woodsgame #indie

It's your average night-time stroll at Slumbering Woods. Bugs buzzing existential questions, mushrooms whispering the answers, and a mossy statue quietly leaking red goo from its eye sockets. No big deal. Definitely not haunted. #TinyTuesday #CozyGame #AdventureGame #IndieGame

My new main character animation… #indiegame #indieartist #cozygame

Some art and characters from the world of "Slumbering Woods" 🌿 If you didn’t know — I’m working on my own cozy game right now! To celebrate, I’ve made a tiny zine, sticker sheets, and a sparkly holo sticker — all crafted with love ✨ #slumberingwoods #cozygame #originalart #gamedev #indiegame #art

While I’ve been busy working on my cozy game “Slumbering Woods”, I still managed to complete the oil painting tutorial by Alaiganuza on Domestika! It was such a refreshing break to dive into colors, textures, and layering techniques. #oilpainting #traditionalart #indiedev #gamedev #handdrawn #art

Look at this snug little Inn! Who built it? Who LIVES here?! So many questions... but only one really matters - wanna see what’s inside? Drop a comment if you're curious! #ScreenshotSaturday #CozyGames #SlumberingWoods #Indiegamedev #indiegames

Chasing bugs munching on mushrooms is going to be fun. A bit of WIP - the chase is at the end of the clip. youtu.be/BQySl2XKt6Y #indiegame, #indiegamedev, #cozygame

Really happy with how mushroom planting is coming along in the game! We’ve got a few mushroom varieties, each with different strengths and soil needs. Which kind of mushroom would you love to plant in a game like this? #ScreenshotSaturday #indiegame #mushrooms
