When you post for likes/attention, you are setting a certain kind of expectation. Ive seen popular fanartists lose all that traction when they burn out from doing solely fanart and go back to doing original art. Its best to create what you love and find other people who resonate with that art.

I was gonna ask if I should play Animal Crossing but I know my brain will go gremlin mode and I will think of nothing but playing for a month straight Because that's exactly what happened when I finally played Stardew Valley

Post your BLUE artwork 💙 I definitely don't use enough blue in my artworks lol

Watching LOTR is fun not just because it's a good series but because you randomly just stumble into the moments that were made into memes. It gives me a little giggle

I def understand why people hire video editors because I just do not have the drive to learn fancy video editing and i'm just sitting on at least 7 unedited painting timelapses

Mistakes happen but now I sadly have 20 sticker sheets that are sold at a huge discount due to an error in color. If you're looking for affordable stickers you can now grab my moth and skull sticker sheets (if youre okay with the color error)! Link: ko-fi.com/s/04d1536908

Is she talking to the bird, or is the bird talking to her? Hidden from the view of the night sky and stars, there's a secret being conveyed between them. When you're ready to welcome this artwork into your space, you can find her HERE: ko-fi.com/artisancris/... #printshop #stickershop #artprint

This is how i feel

Want an artwork to gift your loved one? Or for your #OC or ships? Im currently running a limited-time #YCHcommission option for #couples! Queer couples get a discount & the christmas decor can be removed upon request. I also accept installment payments. Likes and reposts are appreciated!

An attack on fiachrastudios' OC, D'vrash! [ artfight.net/~fiachrastudios ] I've never drawn an orc before so I took the chance to draw her 🐱💖 Want to attack me? My #artfight page is here: artfight.net/~ArtisanCris #teamcrystals #fantasyart #illustrator #clipstudiopaint #semirealism #artfight2025

YALL !!! I got my comm from @artisancris.bsky.social (thank you so much again, ily) LOOK HOW GORGEOUS IT IS AND HOW BEAUTIFUL THEY BOTH LOOK

I can't reply to your thread but! @beeccoe.bsky.social has a thread of artists (all based in the philippines, some even cebu-based) who are doing donation commissions to help out themselves and others affected by Tino/Kalmaegi! Other fundraisers include Angat Buhay (angatbuhay.ph) [cont'd in reply]

this is my superhero comic. consider reading it if you love men yearning for beautiful women who will arrest them, fashion, guys talking about their feelings for each other without realizing who the other one actually is, wet dreams, workplace comedies and nerds with incredible asses

I like seeing art vs artists because oftentimes you see them look like their art OR there's an element of their artwork that's so clearly subconsciously drawn in due to their own likeness.

hey so Stripe is doing Al garbage where if you let it handle disputes you have to pay it 30% of the refund. the email link to opt out didn't work. i couldn't find the right menu myself, and after some searching, managed to find it elsewhere. turn this shit off. dashboard.stripe.com/settings/dis...

IDK if I was clear about this but my OC Zareb was made to be Filipino-coded. Not just with the color of his skin & features but also his attire was inspired by traditional pre-colonial clothing of the Philippines. He uses a martial arts fighting style called Arnis (also used in PH). (not a WOL OC)

It's worth looking at this zine even just for the skills of the artists who made artworks for it, one of which is YfirheimArt who worked on this Gortash piece!!! #baldursgate3 #envergortash #semirealism #fantasyart

two of my elven gremlins; Yarrow Aldwir and Aster Lavellan 🌲🔮 beautiful protraits done by @artisancris.bsky.social ✨

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Meet Bear and Jax! These two alphas are just two out of the five main characters you can meet in Clover Holloway's "Welcome to Bone Town" (18+). I had the pleasure of working with her to make character art for her book. 💖🐱 Clover Holloway's instagram is here: www.instagram.com/cloverhollow...

Thank you to @guidingbolt.bsky.social for commissioning me! This is his #OC Alice. It's fun drawing another woman again and also loved looking up some refs for the clothing. 💖🐱 #artcommissions #commissionsopen #humanartist #artistsofSEA #ocart #clipstudiopaint #illustration #illustrator #digitalart

This is where id put my #durgetash commission IF I HAD ONE I always joke with @yfirheimart.bsky.social that I come across so many pose refs that would be so fun and perfect with durgetash but I rarely get comms with such dynamic so RIP

MY SHOP IS LIVE! I have these cool ephemera & vintage inspired journaling stickers and art prints in my KO-FI shop 🐱 I will be adding new stickers and art prints monthly so definitely follow me there! Link to kofi: ko-fi.com/artisancris/...

Ordered new stock of new sticker designs for Nov15th. Turns out the second designs have very small white dots going across some of the crowns, so I guess i'm putting that up as a discounted "oopsie" sticker sheet. It's really only visible when you look hold them up to your face, but still...

One of the things about being a cat person is that other cats sense it too. Stray cats will look at you and know you're a sucker. They will look cute without effort and maybe they'll get you to pet them or give them a little treat, and that's tough to say no to.

Just finished this half-render portrait for @drowneddaisy.bsky.social ! This is their character, Aster. 🐱💖 Thank you so much for trusting me with them. Want a cool half-render artwork from me? My info is here: artisancris.carrd.co

Thank you for all the birthday wishes! A rare art vs. artist! It took me until 22 to lock in, and I hope in the year of being 24, it pays off more than it already has! <3 I appreciate all of you <3

New DLC for Cult of the Lamb has been announced. Im excited & will definitely be getting it. Here's another old doodle of me and @yfirheimart.bsky.social as Ram and Goat in COTL.

Something special to celebrate the bday of my bestfriend of 2 years! This is a painting I made of @yfirheimart.bsky.social 's cat! I painted them in this outfit and background from the painting of Charles X of France. 🐱👑✨ #clipstudiopaint #petportrait #digitalart #semirealism #illustrator

Archer's the nerdy type who'll help you if you ask, while Roman's the gruff type who will probably judge you silently for yawning in class. 😳 Clover Holloway had me paint her characters for her book, "Welcome to Bone Town" (18+). Here is her instagram: www.instagram.com/cloverhollow...

Sad that I rarely get to draw lesbian couples (either oc x canon or oc x oc or canon x canon).

Which film reminds you of your childhood?

Just got home! Orders have been sent out! I gotta invest in a mini printer or something because the lady at the post office hates my tiny handwriting (valid) 😂 apologizing in advance for my handwriting 🙇
