Unbelievably excited to share what I just found out! Sacred Trees has been officially announced - I'll be working on a new book with Kate Zimmerman and publishing with Andrews McMeel. Huge, massive thank you to my agent, Jessica Mileo, for always believing in my work and advocating for me!!

Sometimes I enjoy painting the mundane with slight distortion. Nothing is wrong but everything is.

Monster Hunter Stories 3 is one of the prettiest games I've ever played, wow.

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

Re: my last reposts “Do not put money in the pocket of a woman who has sworn publicly to use it to disenfranchise vulnerable populations” is the smallest ask imaginable. It’s not oxygen, it’s not food. It’s television. You can do without. There are thousands of other shows for you to watch.

It is shocking that 10 years have passed since Bloodborne was released! An absolute favorite of mine. 🩸

Eponymously named for my favorite thing I paint less and less.☁️ #humanmade

One day I will post the new art I've been toiling on, but until then bear witness to the revelation that I recursively and unintentionally recreate the same feeling over and over ad nauseum. 👥 My human experience is a mirror trap. 🪞

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art) Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money www.federalreserve.gov/apps/proposa...

Old sketch that I was thinking about this morning. Spirit Walker "Only the birds can see you, Only the birds know what you've done"

This was more difficult to narrow down than I thought! I opted for titles that were influential as opposed to strictly favorites. 💛 my9games.com 1. Lunacy 2. Shining Force 3. Illusion of Gaia 4. FF6 5. Shadow of the Colossus 6. Okami 7. Dragon's Dogma 8. Everybody's Gone to the Rapture 9. Inside

Chicago.

I feel like my dog is literally a manifestation of beauty 😭🖤

I was in "Who's Who Among American Highschool Students"😂

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. tcpipeline.org

I've seen discourse surrounding artists "peaking" at 30 and I just want to say don't fall for that trap! I'll be 45 this year and I don't think I've ever been more resolute about my work. Existence and perseverance is art; you can not PEAK yourself. Every iota of creation you make is a miracle.☄️

Not sure why I was thinking about it this morning, but here are some pics of my favorite Halloween costumes (with honorable mentions on the end post) from the last decade. These vary from 50%-90% hand crafted. I've slowed down a bit over the years, but doing this has always been joyful.

More people should listen to @tressiemcphd.bsky.social When people say AI is inevitable, let them know the future isn’t settled.

it comes from the heart 🫶

Fabulous work, looks like there are some originals for sale also!

This is starting to get like universal basic income where every single objective study shows the same result but the people who don't like that result go "uh, well there's just really no way to know"

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

"It's not the height, but the space between that matters" I painted this a long time ago, but this movie is often on my mind.

I made a filterlist for uBlock Origin to remove Generative AI features on websites. Includes blocks for * Google AI Summaries * YouTube Ask button & chat summaries * GitHub Copilot * Facebook AI chat * X's Grok buttons * Deviantart DreamUp * Booru AI images * And more github.com/Stevoisiak/S...

bless our beautiful bodies 💋 Happy Black History Month! #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackSky #BlackArt

not really joining in with the epstein news because i simply can't think about it. the totality of it, the abuse, its normalisation, the degree to which its perpetuators did not and will not see justice depresses me so existentially that i personally can't find any catharsis posting about it

waiting for someone at my seaside grave

LA people: ICE IS IN KTOWN

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent. And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

An Imaginary Country by Tim Hecker. 🖤

Mood, atmospherics, lighting, and brush texture. 💅🏽🪄

Create art for YOURSELF first and foremost. Art is vanity; fulfill those desires you’ve been afraid to even speak into words.

That time I thought the main character of Below was a little mouse so I made a fan art of it 🐭 (it would have been more compelling imo)

(older) Horse beings to usher in the year of the Fire Horse🔥🐎. #art #notAI

a lifetime of consummate melancholy

My most popular art from Twitter was one of these two, but I think The Last Unicorn image had higher engagement.

Brush pen* from... 2016 (yikes I should do it again I miss it🥲). "Show me what you can do with just a pen🖋️"

Let's "feel our oats" to end 2025!🦚 What are four of your favorite pieces you've created? The alt-text contains my thoughts or tidbits of info about each one!

Welcome followers new and old! The recent reposts display what I will be releasing in 2026. I had planned on completing all of the pieces this year, but much like others 2025 ended up being a year of difficulty - both externally and internally.

Last set of compositions finished (15!) The next time I will post anything related to this project will be finished work. 🪄 The posts will be in a specific order (not the order I completed the comps), but my goal is to finish all of them by the end of the year. 👻🦑🦅

fourth set of compositions done 🐂 - with an additional rework of the naga from the previous set.
