#MeetTheArtist! She goes by Sunny — though many know her by another name — and she’s smiling about this whole thing. Whispers of a second issue of the year’s sickest DIY Trans art zine drew her from her afternoon nap under a grapefruit tree back into her garage studio like a transmasc Pied Piper.

Some fun Junji Ito esque sketches. I love the expressions he did so I copied aspects of either the eyes or mouth then created a new creature around them. #junjiito #sketch #art #freaky

And we have a bit of a tonal shift, but I wanted to show off some makeup I did a while back. Love getting to practice using some 3rd Degree Silicone. #sfxmakeup #sfx #gunshot #gore #makeupfx

This is my freaky clown. I love him. I made him 2 years ago and hes still one of my favorite maquettes. I guess that means I need to do more. #sculpture #freakyclown #maquette #creepy #clay

And a second post to show off some more from the gallery! Its good to know you can throw together a whole gallery in your house with a bartender and a photographer 💅 @nateypoo.bsky.social #artgallery #art #community

Some of my favorite photos from the art gallery that me & @nateypoo.bsky.social hosted. We had over 30 art pieces submitted, which we were very ahppy about considering we have never done this before. It was a very fun time and we look forward to doing it again next year! #artgallery #art #community

My year long 2024 project based on the book Lets Become Fungal! By @letsbecomefungal.bsky.social An amazing book that has changed the way I aproach my life. I did 1 painting per chapter in the book (plus an extra for fun 😜) I highly reccomend this book to anyone who can read! #letsbecomefungal

Piece #12 & #13 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Process Competing with the desire to create for the viewer rather than the self. Title: Accept Be present & unbothered by the end result. Ground yourself in the enjoyment of creation. #becomefungal #painting #grounded #art

“I guess this isn’t so bad” (theme ‘pour’)

Piece #11 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Unoccupied x Unused Only land that can be deemed productive enough throigh a western view is left untouched. #becomefungal #painting #capitalism

Piece #10 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Pulling Possibilities In referance to the native american concept that the children we carry on out backs see the future that lay behind us while we reflect on the past we see in front of us. #becomefungal #painting #nonlinear #swan

Piece #8 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Interpret Language is a living thing that we influence by our use of it. Our words feed our perception of the world. #becomefungal #painting #slimemold #feedingfungus #language

Piece #8 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Held Its easy to get lost in trying to block out all of the stimuli of busy life. This is a reminder that engaging your senses will nuture your soul. #becomefungal #painting #grounding

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Piece #7 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Birth of an Angel Escaping the confines that you are born into is subjecting yourself to being percieved in your most vulnerable moment. #becomefungal #painting #trans #comingout

Piece #6 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: According to His Needs Albino plants are dependant on their community for nutrients. They are unable to give back yet the forest still feeds them. #becomefungal #painting #fungi #community

Piece #5 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Please Examining our need to cull vital organisms in seeking monocultures despite the harm to our global community. #becomefungal #painting #fungi #monoculture

HOT CREATIVE TIP: if you lean into your bullshit long enough, you get to call it an "aesthetic"

Piece #4 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Happy Birth-Decay! A reflection of how the death of something seemingly perfect can give life to something perfectly new #becomefungal #painting #cupcake

Piece #3 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Unity Being able to connect with other revolutions and other fights in order to support eachother & uplift. Learn from the revolutionaries around you #becomefungal #unity #acrylic

Piece #2 from the How to Become Fungal Project Title: Cultivated The records we have curated impact how we view our history and our future #becomefungal #sculpture

Parttime fem kittyboi and fulltime nonbinary dykefag Kian finds himself doing a variety of things including art, climbing, and plotting how to spread the gay agenda. This year he's embodying the word 'fearless' in order to encourage new experiences and to learn new things while leaving fear behind.

Never forget Sally-Ann Beaumont, one of the meanest, cruelest characters in Spider-Man cartoon history for literally no reason

Going to the bar to make #art

Lately I've really been sympathizing with parrots who pull out all their feathers

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).
