Frutiger Aerghost no. 4, the city ghost! I feel this one is the most true to the Frutiger Aero aesthetic and will tie them all together when I share them as a series ^^

Another festive Halloween dinosaur, Parasaurolophus Witch, watercolor on paper. I painted this a few years ago, but since 2020, my sense of time has been utterly destroyed, so I don't remember exactly when.

Day 20 - Toad. Sometimes I like the wip almost more then the finished piece. It makes me irrationaly angry.

I hoped I could create something new for today but I had to do some boring adult stuff. So here is a wip of a old piece!

Today I said farewell to my latest commissioned painting. She's a moody lass, and her love of pumpkins is legendary.
Farewell, dark lady...

Well, Two thirds of the way there!

Starting to feel the burnout though, hope I can make it the rest of the way

Anyway, here's Edd, seems kinda relatable right about now

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.
