All of the softer updated GD fan art pin-ups I did for the anthologies back in the day.

Over on the YouTube side, our Strawberry Shortcake episode with @zorilita.bsky.social just went live! youtu.be/_NMOKaMD5lk?...

Merry Christmas!

Sometimes I like to refresh gift art and commissions.

I drew this original commission many years ago, and while there wasn't anything really wrong with it, I wasn't in love with it. I wanted to recreate the background to make it more cohesive than the original one and more detailed. The character herself is mostly the same,

Way back in high school, I created my most memorable avatar, Zori. Later dubbed Zorichan, she was my first well-known persona. In fact, most of the time, the people didn't even know my actual name and called me Zori all the time.

I used to do a lot of commissions for this person. I found this image from 5 years ago that I didn't think worked at all. There were too many elements overlapping in strange ways so I've updated it. This might be my most pastel image I've ever colored.

I hate to e-beg, it's embarrassing and I feel pathetic, but all I want for the holidays is to help my disabled mother with her medical bills so she can continue getting the care and treatments she needs. Please donate or share, I appreciate it so much! LINK: gofund.me/15682d815

That time I was an editor for the Womanthology Sketchbook.

And on that note, what do folks want to listen to us cover in the future? Here's a taste of things to come in 2026, just because I can:

We hope you had a berry good Thanksgiving, now enjoy some dessert! share.transistor.fm/s/1284e520

Margarine is Antoine's true weakness.

This was an ancient artwork I created years ago, but I wanted to revisit it and refine the volumes and some aspects of it. I hope you like it. I probably won't do any more updates of really old stuff unless I get the itch for it. Bonus recolored Zorichan art.

I wanted to do a warm-up today, so I took an old sketch, fixed it up, and designed an updated version of her rainbow dress from www.furaffinity.net/view/21218994/ to make it more fun. I played with a lot of textures on this one too.

I framed the 2 @Sonic_Online mini posters my friend and I got at #sonicexpo. I need the drawers, the anti-heroes, someday.

Updating old art that was inked in Procreate to fix the linework. This image is of Jereboa panicking that he and the other Guardians will be replaced by my fleet of cat guardians.

Progression of a Christmas image.

Zorilita Guardians celebrate Christmas. I wanted to update the previous image from a few years ago and add in Alaria. Then I was not happy with the line thickness from Procreate, so I redrew the characters in Photoshop.

I thought this was funny...and it's my first viral post on twitter. XD

Sonic cutouts! #sonicexpo

Sonic swag and cool things I got at the show. #sonicexpo

How was Sonic Expo? #sonicexpo

Had a fun time at the con...going home now. Thank you to everyone who chatted with me!

@metalpandora.bsky.social I found your print at Sonic expo art gallery :)

Sally!

Don't wake me...

This rabbit decoration originally had these black soulless eyes so I painted a little white highlight on them and the nose to make it look more alive.

It's been a while since I've actively watched anime. Over the last few years, I've not felt interested in anime like I used to when I first discovered it. Maybe because it's too accessible? Maybe because a lot of the newer stuff isn't animated like the amazing stuff from the 80s/90s?

I've finally seen the Sailor Moon Cosmos movie. Overall, I really liked it. I would say that the first movie played at breakneck speed through each animamate, and the second one was a bit too slow with a lot of exposition. I would love to see the Sailor V special or Parallel concepts animated now.

Colored lights this year...lots of cool yards.

We give the good candy

Sutter's Mill and Placer County.

Art vs Artist 2025...cartoon me instead of a photo this time.

I saw these Decora Ponyz on Amazon and thought Why not? They are about the same size, even a little bigger than the MLP dolls, and have that same sort of soft plastic, not the rigid kind the product photos looked like. Wild Manes should have used colors like these IMO.

Lake Tahoe

Apparently, my Hatchimal MLP was the 2.7th millionth pic on derpibooru. 0.o;;

Adventures in Northern California, park edition. Now with feathered friends.

Ok, the last of the non-MLP pony fan art...done for fun.

Probably the last non-MLP fan art I will do for a while, but I found this little Hatchimal unicorn in the thrift store and thought she deserved to be more in the MLP style.

Throwback to the panels I was on at Equestria LA

So there's apparently a new pony toy, and I wanted to do a slight redesign of one of the characters because man, do those toys get busy with the decorations. I get the schtick, but I think it could have been cute without all that.

Are these guys still popular?

Yes or no?

I wanted to update my self-portrait to make my hair color look more like my current color, and I'm not really a pink girly, so more subtle colors for that, too.

When I said I was sad about missing golden poppies we stumbled upon these even tho they should be out of season.
