Ivory and gold

is it tea time yet? ... well yeah? always?

late to this but it's good! Xīn does not waste your time. (not the biggest point but the mixed media mention makes me excited to do mixed media again)

why did i decide to play cards with myself, they get all the luck (our good fortune to have yinglets is thanks to Valsalia!)

reviewing this morning's footage on the tram home

sheeptaursona! not feeling particularly harelike of late (or not much liking my harelike traits) so trying on the soft woolly thing to see if it fits better. and the extra legs thing

it's a special day

joantoons.itch.io/1200-am-kfuz... IT'S FINALLY HERE 1200 AM KFUZZ Issue #2: 40 plus artists! Music! Cartoons! Paintings! Stories! A multimedia furry music zine! All proceeds go to The Trevor project! Please check us out <3 #furry #furryart cover art by @kandykanejames.bsky.social

for today's #foxtober piece, a gift from the always wonderful @moult.bsky.social ! foxes make for excellent roadside attractions <3

The Water-Margin Repertory Enclave is proud to announce the opening of this year's season of "Shakespeare in the Mire".  Festival seating for only twenty clams. Dry seating begins at fifty.  #yinglet #artistxinjinmeng

sketches from this week: - a good-future Ida, Phaedra and offspring - Jean and her important equipment - some more oviform Moults (plus a car with a similar nose, let's call it a Citoyen MX) - and some Faisals and Vitalys

sure, Alex, that's the way to put your team at ease and Maura isn't choking, this just doesn't meet her high standards for food (and the world is going to hear about it in her Saturday review)

a thread of streamed sketches from the last week or so considering whether to be a sheep (it would at least more accurately represent my running style and ability than a hare)

Xin has the good grace to appear amused by the thing that the artist lacked imagination to draw a birthday gift (which i have been very late to finish and post) for @xinjinmeng.neocities.org!

A brief moment of silence.

hatchday cards must have wordplay and reference to hobbies for and of @clam.monster !

Shandy bouncing a few ideas off a colleague; maybe it develops into a new proof, maybe not, they'll see commission for Raeth! adamas are a closed species by @ghostekey.bsky.social

Distraction

The city is home to all kinds of people! Take a moment to meet your neighbors. Learn their names! Enjoy their customs! Define your boundaries! Check your pockets! Characters and art ©Xin Jin Meng. Yinglets are ©Valsalia.com

ok finally something I feel a little confident talking about. I think there's a growing overreliance on outsourcing production and it's pushing out DIY makers, further commercializing furry art, & resulting in slimmer profit margins. this is how I handle nearly all my production myself:

Hey lovelies, I've had some unexpected expenses having to commute to my clinic for my lower surgery follow up appointments, I will get back to doing commissions soon but it's hard to sit so every bit helps rn so I can pay for rent and food this month <3 ko-fi.com/foxlite

the Peoples Pop Polls are a great music-discovery engine, def a part of my Turn Towards Pop lately, and this round's format (three-legged race between pairs of unrelated homonym songs) is a lot of fun

Happy #TransDayofVisibility! Today I want to shout out to one of my favorite musicians, Dee Palmer of Jethro Tull. She began her transitioning at 61, that's right, 61, proving that it's never too late to be the person you've always wanted to be.

Encrypted love note

I need €800 for rent in four days and I very simple don't have that. Please help me out if you can.

yingletsona! features: startle, forktooth, fluffbum, eat walnut, very much tail, powerful need to wrap limbs in materials (unknown why) the yinglet species was created by Valsalia!

have been listening to some of my own music for the first time in a while. i like my music! i think it's good it's at moultery.bandcamp.com/music (newer) and isdoes.bandcamp.com (older)

'Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world Like a colossus! And we petty men Walk under his huge legs and peep about To find ourselves dishonourable graves!' #art #furryart

hey critters. I'm calling for some mutual aid here. Please help out my girlfriend! Due to her ex she owes her city's utility company 900€ and it's causing both of us worries. Even a small amount would go a mile to help

some horses! have wanted to draw the mane 6 for a while. apologies to Spike, i don't think i did so well with you, but i didn't want to leave you out #art #mlp #mlpfim

There really is no time to downplay your own role in this community. You’re part of a radical & lively furry movement. Everyone must become their weirdest self and be alive, and draw the dogs and critters of their dreams. No time for fear! You’re in the heart of the snoutosphere.

carrying the groceries home is trivial when you've got four backs between you (not necessarily canonical for Vitaly and Faisal; i just keep thinking 'why not taur') #art #furryart #taur

'yeah, course, why would i spend hours in therapy and take all those pills when all i need's this.' 'but you do feel better?' 'vague affirmations and palm-to-palm action. fix me right up. [sighs] yes. slightly.' #art #furryart

My contribution to the 1200AM KFUZZ zine of last year. If you like please also check out all the other artists who contributed, I can't overstate how good some of these pieces are: https://joantoons.itch.io/1200-am-kfuzz #furryArt #myArt #KFUZZ

crunch crunch. clockwise from top left: Jen, Phaedra, Huw and Ida (another wallpaper, this time for my phone, though it's a bit visually busy for that) #art #furryart

the greetings card i sent out in 2023! (this year's has, i hope, found its recipients by now) happy holidays everyone.

rather than make games in Picotron, i make wallpapers to motivate myself to make games in Picotron. this makes sense
