Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

Watercolor "Crow and Rising / Cascading Fern" series I've been working on recently. The originals are available, either through my site featherdust.storenvy.com or if you send me an email/message, I can create a custom invoice for you, which saves the handling fee. 🪶

Hello! I am still alive. The TLDR version is: -Got laid off from company I worked at for 15 years in February. -Looking for a new job was a full-time job. -Started new job, learning entirely new field = much tired. I've got a lot of catch-up on scanning+art sharing and its a bit daunting 😅

I pledge Allegiance to a Moral Code: to protest the Rule of Law if it turns against justice, when it oppresses the disenfranchised, when it divides and conquers and makes allies into enemies.

Nearly completed Toothless plush for my renfaire booth. Wires in the wings, floppy construction. I still have to make and attach the tail prosthetic. Forgive the explosion my studio is currently, it's full on crunch time. #plush #httyd #toothless #nightfury #handmade #merihsaan #customplush

Another friend in progress for Renfaire inventory. I had these sewn and in a bin for the last 2 years and finally managed to get the motivation to finish them. Shannon minky construction with resin safety eyes and 3D printed claws. #plush #toothless #httyd #dragon #merihsaan #handmadeplush #fanart
