Hiya! I'm Lark, and I make art and comics, most notably my webcomic Aww, Feathers! which is a Utah Valley college drama with a diverse cast of furry, scaly, and feathery characters! It's written to be enjoyed by all audiences and has over 250 pages and counting!
Check it out at awwfeathers.com!

Llewellyn tells a long and probably irrelevant story to the three fox children he’s somehow responsible for: Milo, Emmy, and Ozy. (Emmy is courtesy of @animatronikki.bsky.social)

Love it! 🥰
Also, did Llewellyn's tailor stop making pear-shaped pants? 😁

New shirt acquired! And officially the second gayest shirt I own, LOL!

Picked up from the WoofnMoo store! Very vibrant and comfy!

Dropped my Ine head on the floor and it landed on my Mufasa plush like this, lol!

Final result. I scribbled that out in literally a couple minutes, and while not perfect, I think it's pretty cute!! JUST DRAW PEOPLE!! PUT DOWN YOUR PHONE AND PICK UP A FRIKKA FRAKKIN PENCIL!! 😡

also, dawww, lil ducky. 😊

Saw a video of a bunch of ducklings bouncing on a trampoline and shared it cuz I thought it was cute, only to very quickly learn that it was AI. 🫩 So I immediately sat down and made some ACTUAL art of an adorable bouncy duckling in protest. That's how petty I am! 😤😂

Finally watched the first episode of the 2020 Animaniacs reboot, and I gotta say, "The state of the modern internet era is a secret plot by a lab mouse to take over the world" makes as much sense as any other theory out there.

Good evening! Spooky game night is back! Ine is investigating the abandoned studio of My Friendly Neighborhood! Grab some crickets and join the chat!

So first up we got Loona. What can I say? Furries love her for a reason. She's cute, she's bad-a, she's got that irresistible combination of "Ugh! I hate everything!" and also "Aww, I'm just an insecure puppy dog. Please love me!" Best character in the show. Hands down. Who's a good girl??

Not only do I appreciate the message that all body types can be beautiful, this is actually a decent drawing reference for them. I might do some quick sketches of these in lieu of Inktober this year since depicting different body types is something I'd like to get better at.

One person says to another, "All men are the same! They just one ONE body type and that's it!" Meanwhile the other smiles while imagining a variety of female anthro characters in a variety of body types inculding bottom heavy, athletic, tall, thicc, muscular, hour glass, slim, short stack, little person, top heavy, average, and other.

They achieved peak antler and became so enamored with themselves that they no longer felt the desire to seek out a mate and have calves.

WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY!! AND ANOTHER THING--!!

Happy Fursuit Friday!
Another fun costume to put together and wear was my Feathered Companion Cube for AWU 2024! Fortunately Ine was able to avoid incineration! 🔥📦

Right, it's like... it doesn't matter to you how good you are at something if you don't like doing that thing. Or even really hate doing that thing. In this case, being "really good at being a cute girl," heh.

Again, sorry that's happened to you. *offers hugs*

I'm feeling under the weather today, so I'll have to cancel tonight's stream. Was really looking forward to starting a new horror game for spooky season, but maybe there will be time this weekend, so keep an eye out.

The more I learn about the music streaming industry the more I think we should go back to buying individual tracks/albums and supporting artists directly. Am I really happier with thousands of songs than I was with dozens that I would listen to on repeat because I just loved them that much?

Falren the gryphon is ready for adventure upon the high seas!

Another pirate themed commission, this one for Sefris! Than you so much!

(Besides, we need to normalize straight people having friends who present as the opposite gender without any expectation/assumption of romantic intent. It's weird that we're still stuck on this. 😅)

Maybe there's sometimes awkwardness over the gender dynamic? "You used to be my dude bro I would hang with, but now you're my... girl... friend. But not like my GIRLFRIEND you know??" Idk just thinking out loud. But even then, if someone means that much to you, it's worth navigating the awkwardness.

Dang, I'm sorry man.

This made me think what would change if a best friend of mine transitioned.

Like sure, it would take some getting used to maybe? And that's not nothing. But it sure as heck is worth maintaining the relationship!

I used to think it was great to have every function I needed compressed into a single device.

Now when I go to do something on my phone I immediately forget what it was.

It's the digital equivalent of walking into a room and forgetting why I'm there.

We invented the perpetual distraction machine.
