Got distracted while putting away some beans from this year's seed swap Remember to keep your ceratopsians well-fed with the highest quality legumes!

Three year progression of my sloppy little (US) native plant bed. It's truly wild to look back on, and I'm so eager to see which plants managed to survive this winter. 1: 2023, early October, newly planted 2: 2024, October, establishing 3: 2025, early August, putting on a show #gardening

The only new (to me) pea I'm trying this year is one called the Irish Prean. Just got the seed stock in, and they are BIG. o.O Prean on the left, Retrija in the middle, and a mix of snap pea cultivars on the right

Piece of wood in the forest looked like a creature- drew it a few times. #sketchbook #ballpoint

split pea soup + crackers made from sourdough discard ✨ #food

Dreamt that I had to put on a one-man stage show involving prop skeletons, but spent the whole dream drafting an email about how I didn't have time to rehearse, and that people pay for PROFESSIONALISM when they walk into this theater

I'm late to the party (as is habitual), but the album "Devil is Fine" by Zeal & Ardor has been a favorite lately.

I'm allowed to post misc thoughts on the internet! I won't be struck down by a mysterious force for doing so! (hopefully)

brb, thinking about Chicago (2002)

Every time I'm lucky enough to go to a con, I'm so genuinely floored by the skill and craftsmanship of the furry fandom. You're all incredible

Alrighty, open for business in the artists alley, G27 until 7pm tonight! Come see the world's tiniest table and squint at the tiniest wood slices!

600 dpi scans: great for revealing every piece of dust in your entire home! ...ahem. More pyrography on wood slices, birds this time. In a surprise turn of events, I'll be at MFF this weekend with a whole bunch of these little fellas in tow. Will have more info soon! #pyrography #art #woodburning

A boar working its way out of a wood slice- wip #pyrography :]

Haven't had much to share lately, but this veggie soup with potatoes I grew, plus a yellow beet from a friend, has a pretty delightful palette!

Currently processing a whole bunch of little pyrography scans, some of which are from...three years ago. Truly wouldn't wish creative/artistic burnout on an enemy, it's wild to try to untie this mentally.

Little frog on a wood slice. Dogwood, I think- about 1.75" #pyrography #woodburning #frog

Goldenrod all over! Glad to catch this spot at such a good time

That's a nice marsh right there #PostsMadeByFrogs

Attack!! For yaboimeggs on artfight :D #art #sketch #newt

-running through theme park queues with @carbontrap.bsky.social, ducking under poles that are way too low to the ground- "We've still got it!"

Guh, how is ArtFight in 15 days? It aligns with my seasonal job winding down, and I won't be at Anthrocon again this year, so perhaps I can use it to rise like a phoenix from my own ashes or somethin'

NO KINGS. Everyone able to go out today, : stay safe, you are so powerful

Was lucky enough to experience some happy woodland pools the other day. Happiest marsh marigolds I've ever seen! #PostsMadeByFrogs

I do seasonal work merchandising plants (yay!) for a big box store (boo!) and the weather being nice all last week brought all of the customers out of their shells and it's been very cute; a market farmer told me that he usually sells 400lbs of rutabaga in one go to local pasty shops!

Some meditative little pyrography wood slices- a good distraction for me (and hopefully you as well) in these wacky times.

Being a silly magpie and arranging my pea varieties for a photo as I wait for the snow to melt. These plants and their seeds make me so happy. (variety names in the alt text) #gardening #peas #seeds

(btw, I never mean to sound apolitical on here- please know that I've been up to things that are best left off of social media, let's say.✊)

Transcribing my 2024 garden notebook and: 1) I cannot spell "occurred" 2) This past year kicked me in the ass so hard, it feels like I'm only really coming out of the funk now. It's sobering and odd to read words that I'd written while in the middle of the mental thicket. Blech.

As far as plants go, this year I bought a bunch of different field peas (peas meant to mature and harvest dry) and scallop/pattypan squashes- mostly because, to be honest, they're so delightful to harvest when 'n if they make it through the season. Good colors and good shapes. c:

some nonsense ceratopsians, mostly testing fountain pen on new paper.

Feeling much better- I'm gonna try making aloo gobi today!

aurghh I'll try not to be shy, have this one too. The speech bubbles are snippets of dialogue from @cavesofqud.com that make me happy to think about

I ate'nt dead yet, here are some sketchbook creatures (happy new year!)

Happy launch day to a most lovely game I've been playing since 2017! Reminiscing over all of the little adventures I've had within and itching to do some more recent art. Here's an urshiib (a quilly tinker-bear) from 2019 or so in the meanwhile. Live and drink!

-tf2 sniper voice- stab stab stab

Asked my dad to draw a chicken and he DELIVERED

Found a great little Kellogg's advert booklet c. 1909 at an antique mall the other day. Haven't been able to figure the name of the illustrator, but these are so, so delightful. I've never run into such an old example of these 'flipbook' style illustrations!

Feels as though I must have been added to a list or two with all these new follows happening- especially with my practically-years-long inactivity lately. Hullo to anyone new, and a genuine thank you to everyone who has stuck around; it's such a kindness. 💚

A morel mimic-dragon! This was part of a decently sized series of little 5x5" ink drawings and it ended up being my favorite of the bunch. #underfoot #mimics #dragons #fungi #mushrooms #ink #trypophobia

Made these little off-the-cuff unicorns as photo studies and media tests back in 2014...time is a mad sprint. #underfoot #unicorns #studies

(Uploading a few old works to vaaaguely establish hashtags to organize my posts in the future- pardon my dust!)

Forgot though- muster up this exercise a few weeks ago for Faro on Path of Titans: their ceratosaur, Oreo. Haven't given theropods a proper shot in years, decades even, so my mammal-drawing brain crumbled 2 dust, on top of the regular art rust. :'D

Still haven't mustered up the will to properly Make much lately, unfortunately, but I -did- clean out the fridge and give all the shelves a good wipe last night. That felt powerful, at least. 🧼

What with recent auroras and the trees putting on a show, I'm feeling completely spoiled and floored by the earth this week

Path of Titans has my heart lately. It's good to be a dinosaur. 💚 #PoT #PathOfTitans

Went to a good pond and there were many excellent flies. #PostsMadeByFrogs

Still alive, things're just A Lot, as the story often goes. My aunt passed away earlier this year (kind of a long, drawn-out, shitty ordeal), and about two months back I was diagnosed with a (thankfully minor) form of skin cancer and I've been recovering from a surgery related to that-

A random customer at the food co-op the other day responded to something I said with "gadzooks!" and I've been charmed to pieces since then. Keep being excellent, gadzook-friend.

Housesitting for some friends and their little Zuni fetishes proved to be great drawing practice while the puppies napped. The forms and movement in Zuni fetish sculptures always leave me in awe... drawings in the second pic are all of an absolutely incredible little cougar by artist Dan Quam.
