Don’t evolve just get bigger !!

I never thought I would find myself crying at old System of a Down songs. Playing "Deer Dance" and attempting to get out of my emotions to move into something more productive.

how it's going mentally

One piece of advice about trauma i was given was: "do you treat a bite from a venemous snake by with antivenin, or by chasing that snake down, catching it, and explaining to it that you did not deserve to be bitten and demanding an apology?"

hoping for a peaceful 2026 🧡 #kidlitart #fox #bear

daily routine

One of my favorite experiences during my Christmas visit to meet my boyfriend's family was being included in making tamales on Christmas Eve. I had so much fun learning the process, and I can't wait to try making tamales on my own. I'm so grateful for how welcomed and loved I felt over the trip.

I’ll see yall next year ✨

Mystery Wet is always my favorite with cats.

hey, I am not gonna doompost about it necessarily but, a glance around will tell you it's a hard & stressful time for artists, and especially so this year consider dropping a kofi donation, or reposting a shop link, or even just, leave a comment so someone knows you like their work it does matter

If you see this, we IMPLORE YOU to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.

Donuts. Donut-Holes. Super-Glue.

Another semester over, and another round of A's obtained. This semester was more difficult than most. I'm one or two semesters away from receiving my associate's degree. And I've been lucky to receive scholarships that have covered the entirety of my associate's journey thus far.

I was really hoping for another snow day but it doesn't look like it's going to happen.

Have a Puppy Day

Spent way too long working on this today to try and destress. Still consider this a WIP. First started on this back in 2022 and decided to work on it because my boyfriend really liked the picture. He kept asking me to send it to him, haha. #supportartists #furryart

Wanted to share a cute holiday game that just came out today where you play as a ferret named bean who decorates his town. store.steampowered.com/app/3419910/...

Please understand that all your favorite million-dollar IPs were created by artists that get nothing more than a typical company paycheck. They don’t get royalties on the sales and oft aren’t even rewarded with bonuses or anything for creating such a valuable brand.

I never really understood the complaints about MFF during Finals week until I found myself in the midst of a 15-week-long group project. Feeling nostalgia for con experiences from over 10 years ago, but recognizing I haven't been able to really attend cons since 2019.

And here is my other grandchild, Morty the Void, experiencing Christmas wonder ✨😻✨ #CatsOfBsky #BskyCats #VoidCats #OneBraincell #YuleCat #TwinkleEyed

"I want to help you kill your Sue." is probably the most romantic thing my boyfriend could say to me after watching The Substance together.

Maybe it's making things worse, but at least it's trying. #mentalhealth #anxiety

Finished watercolour for veraglaeka, who has some of the coolest characters!

hold up

The turkeys are about halfway done, and the mashed potatoes are ready. Mac and cheese is next up for the oven, then the scalloped potatoes and rolls. Got a few more sides to prep on the stove, and I'm sure I'll fit a vegetable in there somewhere.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

Repost with Alt Text. ...bc yeah, THIS.

I dreamt briefly of #Hathor last night. She was the Egyptian goddess of love, joy, music, and motherhood. She was also a protector of the dead, guiding them safely into the afterlife. This is one of my all time favorite and best pieces IMHO, and very appropriate to my life personally right now. ♥️

I was hired today to start as a school cafeteria worker. I'm excited to start next week.

Does anyone else get like this or is it just me lol

need-a-penny, take-a-penny

A graphite pin-up commission I completed back in 2021. Still one of my most detailed pieces to date. This took about 40 hours, all together. #art #furry #furryart #drawing

After 4 years, I think I'm going to call this finished. I started this in August 2021, when I started on my degree. I worked on this between semesters. Really happy with how it turned out. It's very close to what I envisioned. #furry #furryart #digitalpainting #illustration #kitsune #ClipStudioPaint

Never stop drawing! 2008 > 2025

Not me crying over how tiny and special Walter was as a #kitten! He grew so fast. These were all taken while he was still 12-16 weeks old in November 2023. #Cats

Decided to draw this today to plan a watercolor painting for my partner's parents. This is just one half of the painting. There will be another mini-painting, approximately 4.5 inches x 6.5 inches, featuring fireflies on the other half of the paper. I don't often draw or paint flowers or bugs.

Trauma. Just years and years of trauma.

Hi! I'm Celeste Teal-Starr. I love creating detailed and vibrant illustrations, and I've been doing #furryart for 20 years! ✨Links: celestetealstarr.carrd.co 💜Gallery: www.furaffinity.net/user/celeste... ☕Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/celesteteals... 💰Form: forms.gle/bzvnmzXBA6od...

ko-fi.com/dracofaunusa... Open for business! I have been stuck in survival mode for so long, but I can't stay there anymore. I have a backlog as well, which I am working on getting rid of while handling new orders. My goal is to have a clean slate by the end of 2025. Sharing is so appreciated!❤️

I hope everyone can remember your art is more than the numbers it gets. The internet is not as kind to art as it was a decade ago. I hope everyone can keep creating even if it's just for themselves.
