was psyched to be on a panel at @lightboxexpo.com and thennnnnn I partially paralyzed my right vocal cord! Hoo-ray I'm on the mend (and I now have some rad videos of my vocal cords trying their darndest to make an E sound), but it does mean holding off on public speaking for the time being 😭💔

Carved out some time to hit up the Brett Allen Johnson show on its last day at the Maxwell Alexander Gallery, hands down one of my favourite working artists:

sometimes you gotta design and model a Linking Book-style e-reader, just for The Bit™ @gilespink.bsky.social kept insisting that we should make the panel match the tiiiiny proportions of the original Myst linking books, and he was correct:

Amazingly, my dad just found our original save files for Myst—I love that you can tell I didn’t get to endgame until I was prepping to play Riven in 1997, and that dad named his endgame file “Syztem Reset” to keep @hummeline.bsky.social and I from accidentally opening it:

love this Christmas card I made in the late nineties, exhibiting the brief (but intense) phase when I hated Chibi Usa

I haven't watched Episode 1 in a hot minute but I'm pretty sure this is about how it went down between Watto and Qui-Gon

Exactly the reaction @gilespink.bsky.social and I were going for 😌🙏

if someone reposts my art on TikTok I will ask politely for credit, one single time, but if they refuse me I will immediately hit them with a DMCA takedown like a witch disguised as a humble beggar in the wood

I had next to no time to draw anything new for the furry convention but I DID draw a sexy Minerva Mink at the eleventh hour, fulfilling my childhood hopes and dreams

aaaand #AWU2025 con commissions day 3! Proof to myself that I can still draw on paper, phew

#AWU2025 con commissions, day 2 ✏️✏️✏️

Been a hot minute since I’ve done con commissions! Bring me your furry masses yearning to be drawn #AWU2025

LOOK I may be biased, but Em has been absolutely knocking it out of the park with social strategy for games like Unpacking, Dredge, and Go-Go Town—she was also a constant resource I could tap into for advice while working on stuff for Cyan's socials & community. ♥️ Can't recommend her enough!!

thought I should update the ol' fursona ahead of @anthroweekendutah.org

Aaaaand my stage backdrop for this year's @anthroweekendutah.org as well! Had a ton more I wanted to fit into this one given more time, but I'm glad I managed to get a fat little sealmaid in there at least ♥️ #AWU #AWU2025

SUPER excited to share the swashbuckling poster I designed for @anthroweekendutah.org, where I'll be a Guest of Honor this coming weekend! I haven't been to a proper furry convention since high school so I'm hyped—might still be a little delirious from SDCC. but HEY we'll figure it out 😎

I tend to fly under the radar at SDCC nowadays, but that also means I am TERRIBLE about posting about my side gig @theconrangers.com that consumes my life every summer. I’m now, wildly, nine years into this venture with @hummeline.bsky.social, @azimedes.bsky.social, and @aidanrae.bsky.social:

;)

I *like* looking stuff up. I like pulling at a thread, asking if the source is reliable, looking for more context. It’s like a scavenger hunt and I learn something new at the end. Or when I’m lucky say “Ah, ok, that was right” pretty quick. The point is, I don’t want to be told. I want to find out

One of the last things @gilespink.bsky.social and I helped to get out the door! cyan.com/the-myst-tri... Such a joy to get these suckers cleaned up and ready for prime time—this is definitely the best the eBooks have ever looked. ♥️📖

extremely therapeutic just putting on a podcast and drawing a bunch of rocks 😌🙏

“To be loved is to be known” based solely on my sister @hummeline.bsky.social’s gifts for my birthday: - Fisher Price Design-A-Saur kit that we had as kids -Old Morris Cave solo rpg (you get to map out your own stratigraphic column ‼️) - Japanese eraser specifically designed to remove sticker gunk

HEY so I'm gonna be a Guest of Honor at @anthroweekendutah.org next month, which I'm very delighted about, BUT I also haven't been to an in-person furry convention since Confurence in 2002 😬 Folks who attend and/or vend at furry cons: what sort of merch I should expect to make/bring?

It's a bummer to say it, but I too have been impacted by these layoffs at Cyan. I’m absolutely holding out hope that this is a temporary setback—we were working on WAY too many cool things to leave them on the shelf. Cyan took such good care of us, and zero regrets at the end of the day. 💙

Harrison and I joined Cyan at the same time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner-in-crime as we figured out what was next for Cyan. I selfishly hope we’ll be back working together in the not so distant future, but in the meantime I can’t recommend him enough:

So proud to see Dad speak as part of the “Motion Picture Laboratories: The Technology and Creative Partners of Filmmakers” program at the Academy Museum tonight! is he still using the three-strip Technicolor diagram I made for him in Flash 23 years ago when I was working at Neopets HE SURE IS ♥️

This is probably way more effort than Sony was expecting, but HEY it was super fun getting to draw a bunch of tiny little vignettes from classic Myst/Riven 📕📘

Recent work.

digging up all of my old Jumba/Pleakley ship art from high school

Livin' the dream, making fake 90's magazine ads for Myst games 😎

taking any opportunity I can to do some hand-lettered Fraktur

scammers on twitter need to step up their game because who on earth is unironically calling it “X” in casual conversation

It's been 30 years of A Goofy Movie, and 31 years since we briefly lived in Paris while my dad worked on it! Truly one of the coolest things as a kid, to hang out at the studio or watch pencil tests over dinner.♥️ Also eternally grateful to mom for secreting away a bunch of original model sheets:

God this industry sucks right now. I'm not affected by this layoff, but a lot of absolutely amazing people were—I've worked with this team for a year and a half now, and I'd write any one of them glowing recommendation at the drop of a hat.💙

apologies to anyone named mark or dylan I’m not taking any chances over the next couple of days

Definitely a dream come true getting to contribute literally anything to Myst:

found out the newest Neopet might be a version of my Varwolf design from the 2005 April Fools’ joke, WILD thought it might be fun to see what it would look like if I redrew it today, while still sticking to the spirit of the original:

I cannot overstate the value of getting a half decent scanner just so you can make your own textures instead of painstakingly trying to recreate them digitally 🙏🏼

running to fill out the USGS’ Did You Feel It survey after an earthquake gives me the same rush as opening up Letterboxd after a movie

OSCAR-WINNING PAUL TAZEWELL MY BELOVED ♥️♥️♥️

Have been informed that Christian Riese Lassen's c. 2000 flash website is still up and fully functional on the Wayback Machine: web.archive.org/web/20030210... my memories of this page have felt like a fever dream for the past 25 years, thrilled to see it's been preserved in perfect condition 🙏🏼🐬

AI witch hunts by non-professionals seem to universally forget that 1) Bad Photoshop Still Exists and 2) I Dunno, Sometimes Photos Just Look Kinda Weird and Uncanny

Absolutely obsessed with my new Gríma Wormtongue maquette by Clete Shields ( www.instagram.com/cleteshields... ) I’ve had my eye on this ever since he first posted the sculpt a couple years back, I’m so glad he finally did a limited run of casts. MY GREASY BOY 🖤🖤🖤

Repping @cyan.com at the DICE awards tonight, fingers crossed for a Riven win tonight! 🤞🏼

An oldie but a goodie, thinking about what relationship I want to have with a new social media platform.

Love my now daily ritual where I start to type "bluesky" into Chrome, assuming it'll autocomplete, and I end up accidentally googling BL

The #Yakuza brainrot CONTINUES: "What if Goromi was more in line with Majima's personal style post-Zero and also from the 1980's" was a thought I followed to it's inevitable conclusion last night 👍🏼

oh my god

First art of the new year is me finally giving in to the Yakuza brainrot that has CONSUMED ME the past couple of months
