quick study of nice lighting on a solid face

i have a big list of people who i hope die this year

I drew this at the very beginning of 2025. It was nice to forget about and rediscover in 2026. To more drawing and being less shy about it. ✍🏼 ( I love girl Sanji 🩵)

got to see the original for this when it was on loan in eugene at the museum on the university of oregon campus. watterson truly is the GOAT

1st drawing of the new year is of @smidgeonpress.bsky.social for the 16th year running. still the only new year tradition i care about

Happy new year 😌🎶

Max Beckmann, Happy New Year, 1917

Back to teaching finding style within figure drawing (the irony of having to censor it on here is not lost on me)

If you get the majority of your news from a vertical video with someone talking to camera, your brain is cooked This is true regardless of what your politics are

Day 365: What better way to bookend this year than by reprising the very first drawing I did in 2025? We made it through, friends. I'm going to miss these dailies, but I won't be going anywhere -- you'll see warmup sketches while I work on some bigger projects! Thank you for being here with me ❤️

As we wrap up 2025 how about a 2026 postcard calendar to keep in touch with friends via letter. The art each month turns into a postcard with a bonus mini art that matches the month's art. pamwishbow.com

My uncle has thought that James Cameron has ripped him off for years and I don't even care if it's not right. I believe him because that's confidence baby

I'll be taking mold commissions at #ANW ...So let me turn your sona into a petri dish of mold?? Who else will give you this kind of opportunity??? 🐺✨🧫🍄

i miss furtively drawing rando strangers in cafés. was looking for something on an account i don't follow and this random person's icon was in the "suggested" bar on their feed. sketched the profile pic quickly without actually clicking on their account so it almost felt like drawing in a café

i truly love it when a barista is mean. it's a great sign when a service worker can be rude without fear of losing their job. in this case, the world weary barista mimed "zip your lips" at the overly bubbly newbie taking orders and simply told the annoying customer "NO" it was beautiful

being the friend group's "ancient one" has the nice benefit of cultural exchange. i get to learn that a vtuber & a vocaloid are not in fact the same thing & in return i get to explain the the old dude on their pasta sauce was one of the hottest men alive who's wife built them a "fuck hut"

What a job to end the year on: I had the supreme pleasure of drawing a sad Narcissus Frankenstein for the Washington Post. I almost thought I couldn't do it but AD Danielle moved heaven and earth to fit my full schedule. Ty Danielle!

Painting in progress. Looks a mess, but I know where it’s going. The blue archways glow in the dark (when “charged” with UV light). The blue and pink are painted on the back side of this translucent YUPO. The glow-in-the-dark, which is mostly transparent, is on the front, as are the drawn lines.

Christmas Sketch for my FC in FFXIV who I love very much

a few new aGoS pages are up on patreon. gonna post 1 or 2 every Sunday, in the name of holding myself accountable

‘Tis the season etc

Hi new people. I’m Eva and I mainly post my own fantasy drawings and paintings.

watched trading places tonight after all the chatter on here about it. it was a foramative movie for me as a kid (mainly jamie lee curtis) but hadn't watched it in 15-20 yrs. fun to see baby giancarlo esposito & al franken and it holds up great in some ways, but holyshit i had forgot the blackface

if you're kinda "meh" on eggnog like i am, a big dollop of cognac in a cup of good nog is a nice holiday drink. spiced rum is just ok, but cognac makes it an actual treat

Kind of hard to work a full work day experiencing frequent crashing 😅 so any small contribution is appreciated. If I don't make the goal before the end of the year for a new computer I estimate I'll still be able to get a used tower 🙂‍↕️ but the more I receive then a higher quality one I can get.

as someone who enjoys plenty of bad movies it's still baffling to me that people enjoy ANYTHING cameron has made in the past 30 years. the second he got total control of the entire process it was clear he is an egomaniac with just the most basic shitass taste and "vision"

speaking of crabs. sad hell comic has been updated, on patreon

What moved the needle on New Seasons’ agreeing to a contract is knowing the union had sufficient funds to weather a long strike during peak shopping time. Stupid money spent on anti-union lawyers, obstruction, PR. And still their biggest bet was on workers’ financial desperation. Solidarity FTW.

Happy holidays everyone Winter sprite and Yule goat, gouache on paper

tee hee 🃏

my partner just said to me "to be clear, your share of the dishes is ALL of them"

went down to the waterfront today for a walk and the river is so damn high these stairs usually lead to a beach. a boat was trying to navigate all the floating full size trees coming downriver. it was nuts

One of the most painful experiences of my life was knowing I was trans, but not being able to transition until adulthood. This shouldn't have to happen to anyone else again. We have the ability to spare people this pain, we know it's effective. Fuck anyone that would deny care that saves lives

For readers who are about to lose care, I have been told that the Trans Youth Emergency Project is helping the families of trans youth contingency plan to access that care. www.transyouthemergencyproject.org

Cover art I did for Mass Appeal / Marvel's Legend Has It crossover, featuring Slick Rick! On sale tomorrow thru Mass Appeal, others in the series already sold out.

Hey mutuals! I am looking for artists who I follow who would be open to giving talks to Freshman, Sophomores, and Senior level college classes this upcoming year The talks are an hour or less and are paid. In person or Zoom work well. Just building a roster of folks who could be open to it

threw my back out getting my damn keys out of my pocket. partner had to unlock the door as lightning strikes of pain shot across my back. people who say "growing old is a blessing" obviously don't have to deal with this kinda shit

Kevin Nowlan's work is just so fricking beautiful

I know many things are awful but here is one genuinely useful and helpful thing you can do. No matter their party, your representative needs to hear that trans people and our families are not alone and this bill is an unjustifiable and extreme threat to criminalize the health care we need to live.
