"Quirky" is being functionally weird, the way "eccentricity" is insanity but with wealth. Embracing it gave me a power, a skunk-sripe, a snake's rattle, attracting friend and detracting foe. Would you want to be friends with mediocrity????

As well heres a fun reveal video I did for this piece! #furry #furryart #toonfur #pup #fursona

Au revoir, Nelvana Studios 1971-2025 This is genuinely sad to see. That studio helped shape my own art immensely. Rock'N'Rule, Care Bears, The Raccoons... many, many quality projects were produced there that all of us have experienced. Thank you, Nelvana ❤️ #nelvanastudios #animation

Sometimes, age is only a number. Other times, it's a badge of experience, a mark of achievement. Sometimes, I embrace my age, and other times, I reject it. This 40+ meme has become introspective...

A little sneak peak of a certain robo pup! 001 is all done! And in record time! (10 days) This wonderful pup was designed by my husband @cartoonkid.bsky.social and is going to be a badge for him! Also, I'm going to be entering this piece in the county fair! Wish us luck!! #furry #furryart #toon

Happy Share Your Care Day! Every day should be this, but I'm glad there's a designation, a reminder, to actively be kind ❤️ Which Care Bear or CB Cousin do you like/relate to most? Watercolor for my Wish Bear 2023 @bear-paw-patches.bsky.social #carebears #shareyourcareday

My ol' workhorse of a tablet died a few weeks back, and I just set up my new one! Why not break it in with an obscure animal beer mascot? #cartoon #hammsbeer

Sometimes, I make notes to go in @cartoonkid.bsky.social's lunches. Here's one I doodled for him really quickly today. ❤️❤️❤️

I woke up today and had an aggressive urge to make art of Charles Entertainment Cheese. This is the first time I've ever made any art of him! (Watercolor/pencil/micron) #chuckecheese #furry #furryart #mascot #mascotart #ChuckECheese #arcade #kidcore

Let us all be cartoons. Today and always.

Hi! Are you a fur from the 90s who used newsgroups such as alt.fan.furry, alt.lifestyle.furry, or alt.horror.werewolves? Can I talk to you (via video call or telegram) about your experiences? I am writing about the history of furry newsgroups and would like as wide a pool of info as I can get :3

Things are looking and sound good. #FurryVN #FVN #visualnovel

Back in about February, I set out on a goal to sell my embroidery at conventions and maybe (not likely) be guest of honor at one someday! Im doing little pieces for this, and here's what I've got so far! Big thanks to my wonderful husband @cartoonkid.bsky.social for designing the toony animals!

It's a stretch, but happy 25 or 6 [2] 4 day! See? 'Cause it's 6/24/25... youtu.be/8A3HZvGN0qs?...

WIP of my embroidery piece for @elliotthebunny.bsky.social! I just need to finish the name tag! Big thanks to my husband @cartoonkid.bsky.social for designing this wonderful piece! It's been awesome getting to make this rad bunny! #furryart #furry #toonfur #toon #toons #toonyfur

I'm a recent #Chicago #Cubs fan and admire their mascot, #ClarkCub The Cubs are doing great this season, it's been fun to watch! Here's a fan painting to commemorate 2025! Acrylic painting on canvas, 2025 #baseball #mlbmascot

At #furlandia I noticed a few people shooting 35mm. @loxlvov.bsky.social was one of them and today he sent me a few he took of us and this pic of Heg & Bosco is going onto our wall. Thank you so much for this incredible memory. #photosky #filmphotography

Practicing with crayons by making badges for myself (Quinton) and my husband! @cartoonkid.bsky.social! Can't wait to make more! #toons #toonyart #furry #furryart #toonfur

It's disappointing when coming up with a genuinely funny joke, and nobody around you is listening. I did something with precision today and said, "wow, I coulda been a surgeon, but I don't have any patients!" Crickets.

Like British television? Enjoy retro-sci-fi? "Chocky" is so cool. I watched it on Nickelodeon in the 1980s but didn't appreciate it for more than cheese factor. Chocky is legitimately good, solid entertainment! (episodes currently on YouTube)

As a companion To Braveheart Lion, colors Of Gentleheart Lamb A haiku for @bear-paw-patches.bsky.social ❤️ Painting 2024, watercolor #carebears #gentleheartlamb #carebearcousins

Toony Shenanigans: A story in four parts. @drakeduck.bsky.social totally pulled the classic elevator dash prank on Quinton! More fun photos from #furlandia

Serously, #Furlandia2025 was a special convention; I got to take my wife @bear-paw-patches.bsky.social to her first furry con, it was her first time suiting in public, I saw some long-time friends there, and be hosted by the 2 most amazing cartoon animals, Hegdish & @drakeduck.bsky.social

A lovely time at #Furlandia2025 with my pal, Quinton 🐾 Thank you to the staff and participants! It was EXTRA COOL being in the "Old/90's Furries" posse #greymuzzlepower

"Girl powa!" I love love love these toons!

Hey, yall! I'll be attending @furlandia.bsky.social. Here's how to find me! I'll be attending Friday and Saturday! Look for this pup around the con. Please say hello and ask for hugs!! I'll be with some other lovely toons, I hope to see yall there!!!!

My first perler bead attempt! Thanks to my mega talented wife @bear-paw-patches.bsky.social I got to try this! It's kind of addicting...

Well! All finished with this embroidery piece for @albertobalsalm.bsky.social! Thank you to my wonderful husband @cartoonkid.bsky.social for designing this! This was a really fun piece to make, Alberto is such a cool character! Stay TOONed for photos! #toon #toony #furryart #toonfur

@cooner.art was looking for some Red Robin rule 34...

I saw these monster cobs and made a groaning noise, literally said "cornography...." out loud. Sexay produce?

I'm a Care Bear fan. I love them. Making this painting helped me to be brave enough to trust my feelings, be bold enough to accept them, and strong enough to tell my best friend how much I love her. Now we're married ❤️ Believe in magic and love. #carebears #braveheartlion #watercolor #painting

BEAR DOODLES! And more! I did all these for the signed/bedoodled hardcovers. Which one is your favorite?
