Time for another seasonal fox painting! Started this in September on the iPad (Artstudio Pro), finished when we got the first snow of this winter a few weeks ago.

Random freelance artist tip, if you have a personal website make sure you have some sort of a sketchbook section available! I knew it's useful but I didn't expect it to be so important, and in a way even more important than the final work sometimes.

🫠 been sick twice this month and in between those had a persistent allergy triggered cough too so November's been fun so far. Suspect the first one was flu and the second one maybe good old covid. Can I be done nowwww

A painting commission I recently finished for @tiv.bsky.social ! What'd be better than a sunset scene with some pretty backlight *u*

New Moon 🌕🌑 A piece for my ongoing series “A Starry Place”, where I explore spaces meaningful and nostalgic to me!!

Huh, I assume the Pokémon card illustration contest is not happening this year even though usually it's every 2 years so it should be time, wonder if all the AI stuff put them off last time 8')

I like how some birds look like adorable cute cutesy fluffballs ✨but also they have Eldritch abomination feet 😈

One of the most extensive paintings I've ever done, two covers in one even! A lot of hours, planning and detail went into this. So much greeeen! This is for Treecer's newest board games, already fully funded on the first day, if you want a copy have a look :D www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar...

In the still of the night

Got to do another Polish Warrior Cats cover recently, this time a novella, 'Mothwing's Secret'. Here's the final cover and the full spread! AD by @missdako.bsky.social , published by Nowa Baśń ✨

In my quest to (slowly) collect badges of all Reyna versions, I now have one for the sergal version! This one has been drawn by @johannatarkela.com :D

Ohh lots of new followers this week. Hello! Here's some new art I haven't posted yet but which got revealed recently on their new website, I did a full page/wallpaper illustration for the Finnish Kids' Forest Trip Day by University of Helsinki last year.

Bit of a personal vent post but urgh. Why is anticipatory grief the worst. I'm running out of time with my cat who I've had for 12 years, pretty much since I moved to the UK. He's not even gone yet but we know it's imminent after a few recent urgent vet visits and I'm already shattered lmaoo

This little pirate had six of her teeth pulled earlier this month and needs to have five more removed next month due to periodontitis, effectively draining our savings almost completely! If you're in a place where you'd be able and willing to help, I'll leave a bunch of links down below! ❤️❤️❤️

Ooo helloo. I am alive! Just been a hectic year so far with work, medical stuff (for myself and others - including my super senior cat who has been needing my attention a lot) I put a timer on social media, and turns out I kind of drifted off from it pretty well and didn't miss it that much.

I recently worked on another upcoming board game by Treecer, here's some art from it! Concepts and the animals are by me, gorgeous backgrounds by Joey Pool and Keen Art. What a fun project to work on, we aimed to imitate Ghibli style with the style and I think it came out great! :D

FINALLY I can post the french Cancan on Bluesky!!

I can't stand bullies. President Zelensky is now trying to stand up against two of them. We should have his back. #SlavaUkraïni

Anyway, who will I see at NFC next week? I'll be in the dealer's den sharing a table with @tirnu.bsky.social ! Table B17 ✨️ Also this will likely be the last international con I'll be dealing at so if you'd like to get any prints, keyrings or originals from me, come have a look! 👀

You know how everyone is always saying "reminder to save your files!", I'll add to that. Remember to have a BACK UP!! I'm going away on Wednesday, with multiple deadlines on Tuesday. Went to turn my pc on yesterday, nothing. My bf has been troubleshooting for 2 days and ruling things out.

Portrait commission for @hom.ph ! 83

I'm a little late doing this but I wanted to showcase all of the logos I designed in 2024! Thank you to my clients for your support and business. If you're interested in inquiring about logo design, my rates and more examples can be found here on my website. www.thornwolf.com/logo-design #Logo

Clovers! Very proud of finishing this one. Based on some super cute photos of a friend's cat that just fit this painting idea I had perfectly. Can you find any four-leaf ones? 🍀 #art

Got some shiny new merch in the mail today!

Throwback thursday, a painting I did in 2017 inspired by the song Dust Clears by Clean Bandit! One of my favourite songs back then, and probably one of the only coyotes I've painted.

Making some A6 size originals for NFC, here's a couple I've finished so far!

Since NFC is drawing near, I've decided to make a list for all the artists at DD! I am not part of the nfc staff, just though this would be a great way to support fellow artists 💚 #furry #furryart go.bsky.app/UP2G8rV

All ready for the upcoming year of the snake thanks to @johannatarkela.com :>

Look at this absolutely breathtaking painting of Niall by @johannatarkela.com! Thank you so much again! #furryart

Me when I accidentally bought a 3 metre/10 ft long charging cable: 😬 what's the point of this?? Me on holiday when accommodations don't have plugs near the bed but I now have a cable that reaches across the room: Money well spent

Made it to my destination, jet lag hit hard but the scenery and food is amazing as usual 😍 good to be back in Japan

Gonna be doing a looong flight this weekend, would love to have some fun stuff to draw during it! Anyone interested in a portrait like the fox below? For £70, DM if you'd like one of your character/pet etc! Or I could also try rendering it more painterly, similar to the dog one for £80

Can all apps please add an option to disable "double tap to like" before I fully embarrass myself by accidentally liking 100 comments and posts I would not even agree with if I didn't accidentally tap them by scrolling aaaaaa!!

Snooooow!!

I've been rewatching some Disney movies lately such as Tarzan, and I've been seeing a ton of pretty and inspiring Lorcana art around too - noticed there isn't any art of Sabor yet so wanted to give it a go for fun! Brought me back to when I used to mainly do art with linework. #art

Also a life sketch of my dog who luckily only moved right after I was done haha #art

Been doodling and drawing on the ipad all day and a toony dog happened #art

Great resource and I will certainly be going through every step. But also I am SO TIRED of this all. Every other day something like this seems to pop up to make creatives' lives harder. I just want to make art and not worry about who's itching to exploit it next. 🫠

Exciting news folks! You can now subscribe to my Tribe at www.myminifactory.com/users/kisumi#/ and obtain a commercial licence for my 3d objects! Subscribers receive a welcome pack containing two wolf figurines and for December you also get access to Krimble the Reindeer and the cuddling wolves!

Lately I've been wanting to replay Okami again, or maybe make some new fanart even. I used to make a lot of it, here's one of my older favourites from 2014! #art

AAAAA I've been reminiscing about this game the past month and now THIS

Can anyone help me find the artist of this piece? I commissioned it as an icon yeaars ago, I still love it but for some reason I can't find the high res file in my computer folders but I also can't find the email/DM it was sent in because I didn't save the name of the artist :c

The urge to paint my nails knowing full well I don't have the patience to let all the layers dry and I'll ruin it all eventually by wanting to do something else and scuff them and then just wipe it all off in the end

I guess I'm not alone in feeling incredibly stressed out lately? With everything going on in the world, all the AI stuff as an artist, and a ton of personal life things to sort out. I have some nice things to look forward to soon but I'm just so stressed lately it's affecting me physically too @@

Check out my friend's goods

'Cold spell' relevant painting to the past week. #art

Working on some new merch, and editing older ones a bit too...! These will be wooden keyrings and possibly wooden pins. Anyone who remembers the left ones? :D
