I know I said I'd post IRL stuff most here and tumblr and not on Instagram, but I underestimated how much less scary it is to throw selfie and photo dumps into slideshows behind art than just. Posting them on new accounts apropos of nothing

If ur able to buy stuff irl, checking overstock stores can be a great way to save cash! Here in the US there are Habitat for Humanity stores that are mostly unused overstock, it's a great place to get new pillows, shower curtains, etc for cheap. Hopefully theres something similar near you!

The Gang's All Here! (2025)

I finally finished this thing. It started it's life as a doodle. I decided to turn into a #digitalpainting for an exhibition spring 2024. I missed that deadline for sure 😅

But i'm glad i finished it anyway #art

A digital painting depicting a crowd of weird characters and creatures against the background of a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. From the bottom right to top right, the characters are:
1. The Mysterious He. Next to him are three smaller Hes, one purple, one cyan, and one yellow. The big one has the typical tiny dot eyes and smile, while the other three have slight variations.
2. A figure in a baggy purple cloak with a clock for a face. .
3. The Moon Man, a very vaguely humanoid, pale yellow thing with a crescent shaped face, a round body, and long limbs that end in thick stumps. One eye is is an X.
4. A menacing looking magenta butterfly with yellow diamond eyes and intricately patterned transparent wings.
5. A white cat-like creature comprised of an oval shaped head/body and long thick legs. It's face is upside down and it has large ears.
6. A woman, inspired by Picasso's portraits. She has two open mouths a rosy red nose, and four eyes. Three of the eyes are stacked on top of each other. Her hair is dusty brown and swept behind her head. Her skin a sickly gray.
7. A tall creature with four arms, a heart-print dress, and a golden bird-like face.
8. Little green dude with a long neck.
9. A flower/bird hybrid with a false red head and two eyes on its leaf-mimicking body.
10. An elegant flying serpent with shimmering pink skin and a ridge of yellow and green spines down its back.
11. Paint brush fish. The largest is yellow red, and the three smaller ones orange and blue. They leave flying drops of paint in a trail behind them as they sweep through the air.
12. Four smiling bubbles.
13. Three rusty smiling square heads on crooked bodies. They are cute.
14. A big fluffy storm cloud with large arms, a concerned expression, and sunburst eyes.
15. For Whom the Bell Tolls: A giant eye set atop a dark triangle body. Fleshy arms hold out a set of golden bells.

Hello Folks! It's about time I introduce myself. If you want to see more from me, I also have a website and an Instagram for more curated posts. BS and my Tumblr will be a lot more informal with more wips, personal musings, and non-art hobbies. You can see it all (and my webcomic!) on my linktree!

I like that bluesky is still pretty new and doesn't shill for verification like Twitter, but as I have been going through and following more people, especially bands, I just have to accept its entirely possible I'm following an imposter thats just doing a good enough job to fool me

Hope For The Planet @h4tp.bsky.social · 11d

Australia's humpback whales are doing so well that their population is expected to reach carrying capacity and plateau in the near future--they have not just reached but exceeded pre-whaling numbers. For this to happen with such a long-lived, slow-reproducing species is near miraculous. #goodnews

These whales were hunted to 150 individuals. Now there are 50,000 of them

Once hunted almost to extinction, the population of humpback whales currently migrating down Australia's east coast has bounced back and is now greater than before whaling.

Finally decided I wanted some social media not owned by evil companies and using my art as AI fodder! Will probably upload a backlog of stuff but I am known to be lazy
