There is so much I could vent about. It gets harder and harder to stay chill when stuff directly affects my friends. But I'm trying to follow my old teacher's example and do my best to be a little island of calm & creativity, because we're all oversaturated with the other stuff.😑

Brain: Hey, I want pizza from this one place in the Bay Area, what do you say Me: Hi brain. Just FYI, it's not even 10am, that place is a thousand miles away, and oh yeah, it closed over a decade ago Brain: dude why do you have to be such a downer

My neighbors got evicted. I only realized this today because a package meant for me got delivered to their (former) doorstep. Just a quiet little reminder that I need to move on from the last few years and get my ass in gear already.

Apologies for being quiet lately. I have been affected by a layoff and, after 9 years working at Aether Studios making characters for Rivals of Aether, Dungeons of Aether and Rivals of Aether 2, I will be out of a job starting May 1st. If you need a concept artist or character designer, hit me up.

Time for a new retro icon🕹️

HEY EVERYBODY Chaoko made a cool game and it's finally getting released today GO PLAY IT

Need some advice from my fellow creatives, especially those of you who make badges. What's your preferred printer/scanner brand? I've been using a cheap HP all-in-one, but I want to save up for something better.

The gritty, beard-stubbled vigilante superhero knew he'd crossed a line into the darkness when he let loose a scream from the very depths of his soul and gripped the plastic condiment bottles so intensely that they popped and splattered the folks in the adjacent booth there was no going back now

Heh. One of the old furry sites that used to be a Big Deal back in the day got the domain name poached at some point, and it's been replaced by poorly coded trash with a vaguely scammy feel. I'm not going to name it because I don't want to send the new site any traffic.

Has anyone ever done kaiju-style photoshoots for fursuits at cons? Like, there's a city block set at 1:30 scale with a skyline backdrop, and they take pics of the suiter pretending to stomp it, etc etc. I feel like that's the sort of thing someone must have done at some point

There are times these days when I feel fairly lucky to be (mostly) out of the loop of whatever The Drama is on a given day

what if instead of social media we had antisocial amoeba

Wing-it for Melody

Finished face badge for Weywot

"Ugh, that's like teeth on a chalkboard." — me

I need to make a Spring version of this. I sometimes use this pic as my entire reply when people ask how I'm doing on a given day

Badge rough for Weywot

Did y'all know I have a Telegram channel for updates and art? IT'S TRUE t.me/art_of_jonas

those movie scenes where the protagonist is like "oh hey I'm so nonchalant" and he's trying to mosey to the exit but then Manslab the Bodyguard is standing in his way all like "HRRRMMMGGGHHH" and the protag is like "silly me I'll just sit back down in this hostile place"

Going to movie theaters was such a big part of my youth, but I think that's over for me. I'll still go once in a great while, but it has to be for a special reason (film festival, special event, supporting a small indie theater, etc). It doesn't feel the same anymore.

We need a mobile furcon, like it's actually a tour bus that toodles around to different cities feeling down? don't you frown, the FURBUS IS IN TOWN (Vengaboys starts playing)

Sprites of the Player Characters from @rickgriffin.bsky.social "Empires" Pathfinder game. We stream every other Sunday on Twitch! Come check us out!!

Judy Hopps will return in Zootopia: Dogsday

Hey, question for everybody watching me. Have any of you thought about streaming but hesitated, or tried it but didn't like it? What aspects of the experience would you say give you pause? What kind of streams would you want to do (e.g. art, games, other?) I'm just curious, no judgment here.

Aside from the crud, it feels like mentally it took me about ten days or so to recover from TFF. It wasn't a *bad* experience, just a very high-bandwidth one, and it's been slow getting all the way back to my usual productivity level. JUST IN TIME FOR TAX STUFF🫠💸

FINALLY!!! For my husband's and my 22nd date-iversary/16th wedding anniversary, I illustrated our childhood characters as Pokemon cards, found a site that lets you make the cards custom, and ordered a booster pack of holographic cards that FINALLY arrived. www.pokecardgenerator.com

Challenge: explain your character's name but make up an origin that is total BS I chose Jonas's name in honor of my late mentor, the renowned Swedish furry artist Jonas Surströmming, who was tragically swallowed whole by a giant stinky herring

I'm old enough to remember Challenger, and a few years later I went to Space Camp. All I'm gonna say is it's nice to see Artemis finishing without a hitch. (Well, other than the loo, I guess.) 🚀👍

Grab Mobu now on Gumroad!! Please share this goob around if you could!! ❤️ beanthing.gumroad.com/l/MobuVRC #mobu #mantaray #vrc #furry #vrchatavatar

Been chipping away at the owed #art from the @gunnywaffle.bsky.social donation drive~! If you are still waiting on yours, don't worry, it's coming, slowly but surely! I've got 8 more on the list to get to!

Bsky's image & video compression quietly aggravates me at times, but I know there's nothing I can do about it and that it's probably a necessary evil for the sake of bandwidth💢

For a warm-up sketch, I felt like drawing Basttie. (I'll admit, I'm a bit of a fan.)

VENTURA CITY DRIFTERS (1995)

Wing-it rough sketch for Stripe. (He has a sentient tail)

Wing-it sketch for @rosheeki.bsky.social

Wing-it sketch for @dearlymelodic.bsky.social

The best thing about being an artist is that whenever you want to draw, you can just fraw the graw with the heehaw and it's absolutely free Take notes, there'll be a quiz later

Face badge roughs for Cecilia, Corin, Vixen, and Emmet

I want to make one of those 90s Eurobeat songs where the chorus is something like "and she said 'tee hee la la la'" and then the bass goes THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD and then your annoyed neighbor pounds on the wall is it too late, chat, can we still do that
