I made a new updates Telegram channel, as basically I'm realizing when I make an important note on various social medias it's split and lots of people aren't seeing it that need to see it. So hoping maybe this will make it all easier for the clients that need the updates.

Please I just wanna make costumes and my toddler either gets into everything or screams like he is dying when I keep him out of the workroom if he’s awake. Only being able to work when he’s asleep is getting tiresome. Add creative energy to the mix and this is SO HARD. THIS IS SO HARD

The corvid auction is ready to rumble! It'll be fairly quick, from Friday morning to Sunday evening (US time). As a thank you for being so patient with my hiatus, we're starting at a bit less than half the normal price, so I'm hopeful it's more accessible.

working on this!
Took the shelf out of the work room to use for vhs downstairs and decided to replace it with basically nothing (to try and free up floor space) so everything on that shelf has to find a new home in the room so it's been a bit of moving around and puzzle solving but I wanna get back to patterning!

Next up is adding feathers - and opening commissions! My application form will be open starting tomorrow. As usual, it's not first-come-first-served, so you'll have at least a week to get your info together.

It hurts my soul to see artists trying to sell to the fandom that aren’t really in the fandom. Just stings when they’re like trying to take the art work fandom artists are doing without really any interest or knowledge of the people in furry. Part of what has driven me crazy last year. 😢

Edited an @akelatakawolf.bsky.social base to match @authorjessowen.bsky.social ‘s character! Wip so far! Used upholstery foam covered in Freeform air so it’s still reasonable weight! More on this soon!

Alright! Some approved macaw bases for 2 finished head comms ready to fabricate! #realisticfursuit #fursuit #macaw

I feel like I’m good at wabi-sabi realism in masks which enhances the hyper realism, natural, imperfect looking element vs clean and neat.
Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome.

I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at.

No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at

Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

couple of bird bases almost done being painted and detailed and ready to fur. Hoping to have pics tonight! 2 parrots and a unique gryphon 👀
I love painting parrot beaks to look all keratin flaky.

It's #portfolioday and while I've made so many different animals, lions and tigers and bears oh my! I'm proud of most of them, but I personally love to showcase my rendition of the species that you don't see as often in suits!
January 14, 2026 at 1:42 AM
Never look at your colleagues/fellow artists and say oh maybe I should be more like them. Case in point I started making my resin bases big because other artists made big resin bases. Then peeps told me they miss my first style slim bases. 🥲🥲🥲🥲

Seeing nostalgic art from artists you’ve followed since joining the furry fandom and remembering what made the fandom so whimsical in the first place for you like 😮‍💨🙌

They made me this head of my 'sona I've had for a long time but I don't connect to that 'sona anymore so she just kind of stays put away. someday gotta put her on the wall or something. bummer she can't get more love.

I still adore this piece. It was one of a kind and allowed me to play with character design. It was an immense amount of unique work but worth. Made as a trade with the awesome Tumult in 2016. #fursuit

Hey artist! Quote with your pink art! 💗

I’ve been in a constant fight with the very large jealousy monster in my brain. The more I can get one up on that monster the exponentially better I feel all around. 💪
When I heard people talk about how much more money they made than me it made me feel salty, jealous and depressed. I understand now that someone sharing their success isn't a flippant brag just because it hurt my feelings, and changing my mindset has given me a lot more hope, which I want to share.
