I have one spot left in this first batch of commissions!
Hey friends, I still have to spots open for this first batch if you'd like one.

Get one for yourself, or a friend. Have a character that isn't an animal adventurer? That's fine too.

the nerve of big tech to not only say they are entitled to scrape copyrighted materials to train their ai but then turn around and charge money to use said A/I is utterly baffling.

just putting this out there to all marketing people:

if you are drawing people to your site with an ad, JUST POINT THEM TO THE SITE. all the other info is ON THE SITE.

phone numbers, bullet points about product/service, events calendars, you name it! websites were kinda made for that reason!

I can finally show one of my favourite paintings from last year! This was a commission for @illumicrate.bsky.social which was printed on a blanket included in a recent Afterlight box.

Auroras are my favourite natural phenomena and i'd love to see them some day, so i'm very glad I got to paint one!

Come check out what we discover in the depth of the ruins!

so what you're telling me is I should mess around with acrylic paints some more?

Thanks for all the love on this everyone! My wife likes it so that's a relief. I didn't have a backup gift for her.😬
My loose study of "Still Life: Flowers and Fruit" by Severin Roesen.

acrylic on canvas board.

this was a gift for my wife and also is my first ever acrylic painting i've actually finished. most of the time i stop at some point.

feeling pretty good about it!

I always think it would be fun to do more animal characters for people but don’t know of the interest is there.

this is my first holiday season without doing a shop in a long time. i can't tell you how much less stress i feel.

these two games:

Dark Cloud: just a resolution/possible UI update etc.

Suikoden IV: i wanna see more assets and stuff as well added to fill out the locations a bit more. its biggest struggle was its emptiness for me. one of the best stories in the series and some genuine good mystery.

new Fakemon for the world of Augury: Horticonstruct!

They inhabit old ruins that have been long abandoned. Some scholars even blame their arrival, and fast growth around structures, as reason for the fall of some of these civilizations they reside in.
