A square digital illustration of a 6 winged heron with 3 heads/necks but no eyes, in flight. It is surrounded by pastel hued sparkle shapes, and backed by a black circle with a gold border featuring a pattern of eyeballs. Outside the circle there are four stylised purple wings, and 8 small circles showing the phases of the moon around the border. The heron is white and the long feathers of each wing are highlighted in a different pastel colour.

A digital illustration with strong black outlines. It shows a purple figure from shoulders up, with a flat expression. Colourful lined shapes with eyes in loop across and down and obscure most of the figures neck, shoulders, and the top half of their head. Their hands are held up and grasping helplessly at the shapes. The illustration is intended to represent overwhelm as I have experienced it through ADHD.

A photo of four rainbow plated enamel pins on a purple background. They include: an 8 winged moth with a banner reading 'infinite neurodiversity', a mace with a spiky aura and a banner reading 'neurospiky', a cracked disco ball with shapes leaking out and drippy typography reading 'all panic no disco', and a pin version of the previous illustration representing Overwhelm, with the shapes in black.

A photo of multiple acrylic keychains on a lilac background. The central design features s red hand palm up with magical sparkles appearing in the center and a larger purple transparent hand gripping it from below. There is a magic circle behind them, and a banner reading 'warped warlock'. There are other keychains around it representing other d and d classes, including catastrophic cleric, wrecked rogue, druid of disaster, and beleaguered bard. The keychains all have holographic sparkles.

I'm sad to see a lot of artists I know saying it's super hard to get sales. And it really is. So I wanna promote them here again.

Go check them out and buy or tip them if you can. This is the non-US shops list but I'll post other lists as well.

Oni @onidraws.bsky.social · Sep 11

I made a pack for non-US artists shops!
Let me know if you want to be added (with a shop link) or removed!

🎂 It's my special cake and candles day you all have to be nice to me because it's been QUITE the year 🎂

So share some of my paintings??

In the pew-lined interior of a dim medieval church lit by rows of candles on tall staffs and pale sunlight coming through a window, a tall humanoid crow figure with flowing black robes and a glowing yellow eye stands beneath an ornately carved semicircular arch in Norman Romanesque style. On the wall surrounding the arch are many colourful murals depicting more humanoid crow figures with halos, carrying various items including swords, spears, harps, and chalices.

A painting set in a cosy shady woodland clearing on a sunny summer's day. In the centre of the frame, two figures sit on a fallen log mostly hidden by vegetation. The figure on the right has wavy blonde hair down past her shoulders, and wears a flowing white floor-length dress with long sleeves, with delicate lacework around the cuffs and neckline. She looks into the distance with a contemplative, sad expression. On her lap rests a small green book, covered by both of her hands.
The figure on the left sits leaning with her head against shoulder of the other figure. She wears a similar dress but simpler, and in a dark slate grey. Her hair is dark and straight, and flows down her tilted face, and she looks off towards a nightingale bird perched on a nearby branch. She raises a hand towards the other figure as if to get her attention.

Both figures are surrounded by various flowers. On the left of the frame are many spires of foxglove flowers in vivid pink and white, interspersed among green stinging nettles. On the right are the purple flowers of monkshood/wolfsbane.

Wrapping around the figures is a clear stream flowing from a distant pond that descends in a series of steps. Around the stream are many small mossy rocks, and shoots of dark green dog's mercury.

Above and behind the figures and flowers are two trees; on the left is a weeping willow with dangling dark green leaves. On the right are the branches of an old ash tree.

A snowy scene in which a humanoid figure in long black robes with the head of a rook stands in a churchyard holding a long spear. By its feet is a red fox. Both are flecked with fallen snow. Around them are many weathered snow-covered graves. In the background is a medieval church of warm coloured stone with large rectangular windows and a battlemented parapet topped with pinnacles. Behind the main body of the church is the tower with clock face and belfry. Behind the church are tall but bare trees dusted with snow. More snow falls in the air.

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

Trying to figure out how to incorporate US tariffs into my next Backerkit campaign without over-complicating pledges or having to increase prices for everyone else is driving me a little mad! 💀

(Bk crew v helpful but this is complicated and they've mostly handled this for US creators I think lol)

Finally took some nice photos of my painting, "The Blue Somewhere".
🖤🌿

I'm thinking of making art prints of this one, although it's not my typical style. Or maybe bookmarks? #art

Every time you put more restrictions or processes to claim disability benefits, it only harms the people they claim to support.

It won't prevent the (tiny number of) people who will still find ways to circumvent the system.

It'll prevent disabled folk getting what they need.
