Part II of the Winter 2026 Protest Pack has dropped. I asked fellow local artists @gawki and @malivethart to join me and would love for you to join us as well. By supporting this fundraiser we are fighting back against what is happening in Minnesota and around the country.

Small sketchbook painting of a brown eye looking upward with a light source coming from our left. Her iris is being pulled up and flows past her lid to turn into black smoke trailing to the top of the page. The skin is painted in cloudy layers of a pinky peach tone, with some greens around the edges Painted in watercolor, colored pencil, and gouache Small sketchbook painting of a very tired brown eye being smudged across the page. The skin is very warm and pink around the center, with pops of green and blue around the edges. The lower eyelid is being dragged down to show the fleshy interior, but the brown iris is smudged over it. The eyebrow is also lightly distorted. The smudges are directed in sharp, straight lines to the bottom right of the page Painted in watercolor and colored pencil, with some gouache

hm starting to think it's a bad idea to have your site moderators spend 80% of their time labeling posts as Rude and the other 20% of their time suspending people for no reason

I've been making sooo much sparkly art this past year
A plush heart hanging on a white wall. The center of the piece shows an eye embroidered in various shades of red thread looking sadly to the right, with one red teardrop bead beneath the waterline. Surrounding it are a variety of red beads to transition into the red felt body of the heart. There are rays of gold thread and beads emanating from the center to the edges, ending in a gold pearl border. There are three drips of red beads coming from the eye, ending in two small teardrops on the sides and a larger teardrop in the middle Completely hand embroidered An anatomical heart made out of felt, lace, and a whole lof of sparkly red beads, is hung on the wall. The beads drip down from the side and bottom like blood. Behind it rests a paper seal covered in cool symbols made by theuglymachine An oval shaped plaque completely covered in iridescent rhinestones and pearls. It has a trans flag design arching down at an angle and in the middle is text: FIX YOUR HEARTS OR DIE

The light cast by the tiger mirror I made last summer makes me so happy. It beams pink and gold light around the room just like I wanted it to

Thanks for the art share! 16k is craaazy, but you deserve so much more! <3

Here are some gemstone studies I made from my own stock photos! (Shameless plug: ko-fi.com/s/c4df940a76 😂) You making this post makes me want to draw even more though, they're so fun! x3 💎❤️
A photo of a sketchbook with a mixed media (alcohol based marker and colored pencil) realistic drawing of raw azurite on a rock. A blue copper mineral covering the front-face of the rock. A photo of a sketchbook page with nine different gemstones drawn with Copic markers using a limited color palette of 12 different colors + black + colorless blender, highlights done with white charcoal and a white gel pen. Some of the tools used lay next to the sketchbook for the social media photo op. A digital sketch study of a rhodonite crystal sphere.
