Hello bluesky! My name is Amy Matsushita-Beal and I'm an illustrator and designer based out of Tokyo! よろしく〜🌈
illustration of a girl in a sailor uniform eating a lot with bunny angels seasoning her food on the left, an illustration of a hand with chopsticks holing a stem on the right. The kanji for food floats above the hand an idol pops out of a TV screen in a dark room, saying hello to an enraptured girl who sits in front of the TV. The girl's mother appears to be shocked, opening the door to the room. An illustration of two figures in a forest. In front, a fat woman with a long open coat stands looking to the distance on forearm crutches that wrap around her with organic roots. One of her feet is actually a root itself. A darker skinned person holds her head behind her, they are looking at her face. An illustration of a person in a suit and a dog collar holds a happy dog in their lap. They appear to have dog ears that are being held by a figure behind them, whose face is unseen. Other small drawings of dog heads float around

Something Fishy
A red and green risograph print of an illustration of a cat excitedly about to eat a fish. Faintly in the background, a muscular person in an apron, stirring a pot, looks shocked and angry at the cat. A shorter person with long hair lovingly hugs the buff person from behind and appears to have kissed the their face all over, leaving lip stick stains. The upper left hand corner is signed Amy Matsushita-Beal in a way that looks like a hanko stamp.
