Gosh, coming back to commissions was SO nice <3 I haven't been able to do things because of my health :'3 but I've come back with a fun one~

A universal experience I’m sure God everyone’s so good at art, it’s unreal 💀

I was surprisingly productive last week and into this week~ even with my health being garbo, I'm just trying to get back to the levels of creating that I'm happy with <3

This is so true

Another ceramic pickup today <3 two "matching" coasters for Sol and I, a little autumnal trinket dish, and two Fantasy Life Flutter Charms for our switch cases~

Coworker: oh, you're using a fountain pen? Can I try it? *she tries it* oh wow, how nice and smooth! Not scratchy at all like I thought it might be! Me: oh yeah? Come with me! *walks her over to the company fountain pen area* this is the one I'm using (Pilot MR1, medium nib), this one's yours now!

I had to pick up milk, so I bought my love @solariswesson.bsky.social his favourite flowers~ and he wanted to use my silly little Petilil vase!

I wanted to do an art piece to the quote "You Are Worth Fighting For." We're in spicy times. So many communities are impacted and struggling. Trans people are worth fighting for. The LGBTQIA+ community is worth fighting for. Any immigrant or minority group member, you are worth fighting for. Etc..

Today's ceramic class had me pick up my little Petilil vase, an apricorn sugar well, and two matching autumnal plates (made with white clay and marbled terracotta and a self-processed dam clay!)

I worked on a massive and special character concept for a week or two, sent it to a friend and agonised over it. Waiting for their response. They message me back and my heart MELTS, because it was excitement over the concept and naming. And I felt really dumb for worrying!

I've been having a rough time lately, my physical and mental health are absolutely garbo :'3 but with the weather warming up, my lovely spouse/zookeeper Solaris has been getting me outside into the catio to have picnics with the cats 🥺

🪷🍪 [Insert Metal Clang Here] (Hopefully I can get my spoons back in order to work)

I took this photo of a kitty that hangs out at my house to send to my neighbour (she runs an animal rescue), and Kara just looks like that Disaster Girl meme photo ;;>3>

I've got two secret Aurawra art projects in the works <3 I'm hoping that once they gets approved, they're well received~!

I really struggled with my mental health over the weekend, so I tried to get some fresh air and sun, I spent a lot of it bushwhacking in the nature reserve behind my house with my best bud Bowser <3

I guess I just had to work with the light box for an extended period of time for Rina to get comfortable in it <3 she's got such a wonderfully perfect cat face, I can't stop staring at her~

While trying to get some quick product photos done for work, little Miss Rina decided to climb into my light box <3 she's skittish so she didn't stand still long enough for me to get a really good photo~ she's such a pretty kitty regardless!

Sometimes, I truly worry that I'm too much in an office setting :'3 but am always reassured I'm welcome in goofy ways... While working in the boardroom, which is between the director's and my manager's offices, I see/hear an ice cream truck pass and half yell: ICE CREAM MAN COME BACK PLEASE!!!! >

We're proud to announce that we've raised $21061 from the proceeds of the charity auction (and other charitable donations) for the Wheen Bee Foundation! Thank you to everyone who helped raise this huge amount for the bees, helping ensure they will keep buzzing!

My best friend has given birth to her baby, and I'm not the biggest fan of babies, but GOSH DO I JUST WANNA SQUISH EM SO BAD >u<

My best friend is having her baby SUPER soon <3 so, I made her a little trinket box using the giraffe dragon I designed for her~ the inside is painted deep blue with stars and a handwritten message! [ #art • #ceramics ]

I painted a friend's cat on a wood slice for her birthday <3 Freedom is her gorgeous old man cat that is OBSESSED with her~ [ #art • #traditionalart ]

Made a tiny fursuit for my child! We had a lot of fun day 1 of AWU! She's been enamored with out fursuits and cosplays since she was born and has been asking for a suit of her own for a while now. She designed the character herself and helped me build it. I couldn't be a more proud mom ❤️

Finally, I'm back at ceramics~ the wheel and I still do not see eye-to-eye *sobs* we'll get there one day! I think closed forms will forever be my favourite thing to make on the wheel!

Sharks are sensitive creatures #sharks #art

Two little cat-shaped ceramic plates I made for some fellow Aurawra staffers as a gift for running the Fursuit Catwalk together 💙 but also for friendship~!

OH HECK! I just remembered that I never posted this piece I did of my sona for #Aurawra2025 ;;>u> which I also turned into my yearly "treat" pins to hand out during trades~

Now that I finally have a little quiet time (a little birthday treato to myself) I can share the stuff I've worked on for #Aurawra 2025 💙 the Aurion stage header, water cooler, stapler in jelly, and VR Portal window~

Feels like a good time to post this illustration again. Keep fighting. Keep creating. Keep living. #art #digitalart

My half of an art trade with ‪@supersirius.net! It was fun getting to draw something for someone with no real obligations, so I got a little weird with the pose!

I got to work on an art trade with @plasticrain.art <3 I worked on a super green jungle piece of their lovely character Feyza~ I haven't done such an ambitious background in so long >u< and it's also been forever since I've done an art trade too~!

Varian, my eldest kitty, is super handsome and photogenic <3 he endured a really bright (accidental D: ) flash while I was testing my camera~

Gosh, seeing everyone's cute Art Fight info sheets makes me want to take part this year <3 but the month of July is always EXTRA packed and I'd feel bad not being able to return fire or pour my all into it!

Work and Aurawra prep has been eating a lot of my life :'3 so, here's the plushie I won at work for completing a set of training~ They're the hydra mascot, named Ziggy, for a Product Info Management company that we work with :3

🔔 Company Notice! 🔔 With only a month (and a week!) left til Aurawra: Tomorrows Horizon, we ask all participants to be aware.  If you have a room booked at PARKROYAL, the hotel will be charging your room payments the 25th of June!  Please make sure all funds are available.

Work wanted more "BTS/life at Pilot" content to make us look more human, so I jokingly submit a video to the socmed team... And an hour later, it's public xD I'm glad no one takes anything too seriously here! www.instagram.com/reel/DKyQWaB...

What if I shared an itty bitty #wip of something I'm currently working on while I wait for approval <3 its got one of the most detailed backgrounds I've worked on in a while~ it's also the most green!

Our himbo of a cat son, Varian, has taken happily to our new heater~ though he keeps moving too close to it for my liking _(:'3」∠)_ so I have to keep pulling him back away from it!

My ceramics for the week have been picked up <3 a small berry bowl to match my home crockery, a pen cup for work, and a Zelda jar with a hand carved cork~

Working on art assets for Aurawra '25 and '26 today („¬ᴗ¬„) needless to say, I am VERY excited~ and having all too much fun, as always!

A quick little gift for @plasticrain.art ✨️ I got a set of water-based Ohuhus that I wanted to test out, and their character was perfect~ I haven't done traditional art in SO long!

Gosh, I love working in a company where everyone has a similar energy~ we later got the big boss in on photos too!

I've been so stressed and tired :'3 my pain levels are the still high, I have more scans soon, BUT I'm still alive! ANYWAY! My best friend is having a baby soon, so I designed a little dragon giraffe for the nursery! Done in watercolours and coloured pencils for extra texture~ [ #art • #furryart ]

Sol managed to capture the most perfect photo during a cat break while working from home 🥺 Rina had YELLED until I pushed my chair back for her to snuggle up on my chest~

✨ Dance buddies ✨ Sol and I finished Clair Obscura, and goodness, the entire time we felt like Hestu and Esquie would be best buds~ ALSO! I didn't realise JUST how tired my body is after being ill :'3 but I'm doing my best to doodle/exist~ [ #art • #botw • #totk • #ClairObscur • #Expedition33 ]

dancing beasts 🐕🦌🐅 smaller detail from a larger print i'm working on, but this is still up in my shop as a solo print. i'll be selling these in-person as well! www.inprnt.com/gallery/wolf... #pokemonfanart #pkmnart

A gift for @stitchupfursuits.com, from a joke where they'll have to carry me like Kazooie in a backpack~ ALSO! I've been so sick with who knows what, with last week being a NIGHTMARE, I've been coughing up gunk and relying on my asthma puffers. BUT! I'm on the other side of it now, thankfully!

Manager: Hey, you got a spare moment? Can you help me move this stuff? Me: sure! My work is done~ *looks in the boxes* Can I have some of this please...? Manager: *mentions my stationery from the other day* wait... I forget that you collect stationery... go for it...
