So
I have this friend
‪@rileymorrigan.bsky.social‬
and she has this character, Tuli.
I HAD to draw Tuli because LOOK AT HER SHE'S SO FRIGGIN STUNNING
This piece was so fun, although the hair was a massive struggle, and I'm so happy with how all the colours turned out! Eeeee!
#art #digitalart #oc

An extremely colourful digital artpiece, featuring a woman with ankle-length white hair streaked with multiple colours, dancing while holding a see-through galaxy-print veil. The character is looking up in her dance, looking hopeful and content. Her hair and skirt whip around her, showing she just came out of a twirl in her dancing. The background is dark as the night sky, with a colourful swirl reminiscent of the aurora borealis through it, highlighting the character.

"I don't want to hurt you, but trust me I've come prepared."
This piece has been my most challenging piece to date. It took me just over 22 hours, many headaches, and some of the worst pains I've had in a while. But I DID IT. I made this, with my own two hands!
#art #digitalart #epicthemusical

An intricate digital artpiece with two people in medieval fantasy style clothes. The two people are characters from the concept musical Epic the Musical, which is about the Odyssey, about Odysseus' trip home after the Trojan war. The characters in the piece are his son Telemachus, and the goddess Athena, as they are depicted within the fandom of that concept musical. The scene is inspired by the song 'Odysseus' in the musical, where Odysseus returns to Ithica to find his palace overrun by horrible people. In this song, Telemachus helps to fight off those people. Telemachus is in the front of the piece, in a wide stance with a cape bellowing behind him as he holds a spear, ready to attack or defend. Floating behind him is Athena, with her spear ready to strike in one hand and the Aegis on the other side. She's wearing full armour with multiple glowing accents, and an owl motif in her helmet. She has a scar over one eye, which is due to an event that happened in an earlier song in the concept musical. The background is reds and deep browns with indications of a fire or struggle.

I'll have two pieces out to you all soon, pieces I meant to upload months ago but couldn't, and we'll see from there. I really need to take it all slow so it might be months again before I share art again after the upcoming pieces, but I'll get there. We'll all get there. You've got this <3

To everyone who's waiting on art... I know. I know, and I'm sorry. Life has been, well, life. I'm slowly getting back into it, but it's an extremely slow process, especially with everything that's going on.

Hey you, yeah you...

It is ok to feel tired, overwhelmed, floating without a horizon. Even when you are chasing a dream and know where you are going.

Take a breath, take a rest, care for yourself and know this too shall pass ❤️

Sending love to fellow creatives!
If sales are down, patreon/ko-fi signups are down, etc. pls don't be too hard on yourself! There is a lot of uncertainty in the economy right now, and little luxuries are the first to be cut.

You are doing your best, and making beautiful work. It isn't your fault.

@gamechangers.bsky.social You all, each and every one of you, should be so incredibly proud of yourselves. Before this weekend I just knew two of my favourite creators were part of this really nice stream team. Now I see how incredible you all are, and you raised OVER 9.000 FOR CHARITY! BE PROUD!

Because we hit the 8500 pounds total for Changelog, I said I would eat the black candy. Supposed to be horrible, there's only one in the entire pack.

It did not go as expected.

I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors.

Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts.

Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.
