I don’t know if I have enough art from last year to do a summary of art, but here are some of my favorite pieces from 2024!

( I wanted this to be like a 2010s MySpace collage/board, but as a painting. The background art isn’t mine, and can be easily found if you search for South Park or Death Note yaoi on Google Images. )

2012 was when I was a peak Death Note/South Park/yaoi weeb. I feel a stirring to return to my roots

A self-indulgent painting I did, embracing my inner cringe 😎

Once upon a time, many moons ago, Skoryx was a yaoi fanboy…

A mixed media painting of my fursona, Skoryx the oryx, clutching yaoi doujinshi magazines. The background is neon green and says “life is short, read moar yaoi” while there are snippets of iconic 2010s yaoi fanart scattered about

I graduated from the digital artist stage of naming files nonsense like "asldgkjhsadlfgkjs.jpg" a while ago, but I felt like my current naming convention could use improving. (I have so many files just titled "skoryx doodle".) Now I'm going to try adopting a "YYYY-MM-DD_specifics" naming format.

The past few nights, I've been up past midnight watching Deltarune/Undertale memes and lore on YouTube

Not 1999 back, more like... 2020

I wish I were alive during the 90s, it seems like it was a fun time

Charli XCX popped up in a mix I was listening to, and I was reminded of this piece I did a few years back

Not sure what I will do with my big 24" XP Pen tablet. It is in its own case for now. Might sell it, might keep it. If I were an artist or animator full-time my big tablet would make sense but it's just overkill. I think having this tiny tablet will help me get back into casual art again =:)

Skoryx @skoryx.bsky.social · 23d

When I moved to Alaska, I brought my big tablet and left my small one behind. I bought a copy of my small one off eBay for a few bucks and it was so worth it. I missed being able to draw on a tiny surface. I missed having a portable setup. And mostly, I missed playing osu!

Bigger and newer is not always better. I got sick of getting eyestrain, sweaty hands, and wrist pain from using my giant $$$ tablet and I have reverted back to using my ol reliable $ tablet that I've had for over a decade now

He's the ghost with the most! This beetlejuice-inspired tarantula plush backpack is all done and ready for his showtime at Riley Fest! If he doesn't find a home there...keep your eyes open, he will be up for grabs online!

Wanted to share this very nice Amanita mushroom growing in my yard. So sproingy.

Some art to spruce up my new planner 📖

(I personally think this piece looks better from far away and laying down than up-close)

A nemesis bird is a bird you've always wanted to see but you keep missing despite your best efforts. Last week I FINALLY got my nemesis Spruce Grouse.Then I saw @thebirdist.bsky.social got his nemesis, Connecticut Warbler, so I thought I'd post this old comic about nemesis birds. Do you have one?

A six panel comic. In panel 1, two people are birding and one says "Ah. There's my nemesis bird" while looking through binoculars at an American Goldfinch. In panel 2, the other person says "Wow, a nemesis bird! That's a species you keep trying and failing to see, right?" The first person says "Normally, yes." In panel 3, the first person angrily says "We meet at last, Chirpy Joe." The goldfinch says "Susan. So it has come to this." In panel 4, the bird and woman are glaring at each other like they're in a fight scene in an anime, and the woman says "Your flock bankrupted my family's seed company." The goldfinch says "When the seed stopped flowing, I grew hungry... for justice." In panel 5, the person says "Enough! Let's settle this." The bird says "Bring it, mammal!" In panel 6, the second person looks on in confusion while the woman and bird fight.

My childhood home had a poorly maintained outdoor pool, and I would catch frogs and tadpoles swimming in it from time to time.
