where I'll be waiting for you there
The two main love interests of the graphic novel Blue Hollow, Onion and Bill, share an intimate moment. Onion, a wizard, has walked down out of a gnarled oak tree to greet Bill, who pulls him close, as if just before or just after a kiss. Onion is followed by an array of creatures both normal and supernatural, butterflies landing on his footprints.

If you live on the US east coast corridor please keep your eye out for native fruit/flower passiflora incarnata! ie the passionflower, or Maypop! This vine grows fast and looks CRAZY inside but tastes and smells like apricot/passionfruit. The flowers bloom for 1 day and are magnets for hummingbirds
A small round green fruit held up against its accompanying three lobed leaf. A bite is taken out of it, revealing a white inner pulp Inside the fruit are many small white pods full of juice much like a pomegranate, each containing a small black seed The flower is exotic purple with a pop of bright yellow, attractive to hummingbirds, carpenter bees and all manner of local pollinators

“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

Everyone hating the new gmail updates? Finally, it is time for me, a lifelong Yahoo user, mercilessly mocked for years for my outdated inbox, to rise smugly back into the spotlight 😎

I did a little Blue Hollow page preview pack for editors to look at, do you also want to look?? 😮 This is chapter 2: scene 1... three varieties of ghost, two teen boyfriends, and the one type of scowl that unites them. ❤️ This is enemies to lovers YA, baby. Follow for the full pages.... soon 🌱
Sheriff Dale Abernathy and teen Onion Pendergrass approach a blue house on a gloomy day. Dale: ok Will, look sharp. he knocks on the door someone beyond the door: Hold on for just a second! Dale coughs while they wait, but Onion looks off into the yard, where many ghosts linger in the distance surrounding the tombstones out by the treeline. Dale tips his hat back: Some house, huh? Whoever built this sure had some scratch! you heard of the waylon mine? Onion isn't listening. Onion thinks: There's a lot here. is it cuz we're so far in? a large man with red hair and overalls opens the door. George: howdy, sheriff abernathy! this the kid you said? dale: yes indeedy! william frost pendergrass. this is he! say hi, will. Onion says nothing, but he has a black eye that radiates purple. George: whew! that is some shiner, sonny! hope you're not afraid of getting dirty! ha hah! oops, looks like you got that one covered. We got one of your type here already, you're gonna fit right in. I'm george, you'll be working with me. welcome to the blue house! come on in, I'll introduce you to the owner. Onion scowls, remaining silent. they walk through the interior of the house-- an old and rotting victorian mansion, the inside painted mostly blue. the wall is peeling and detritus is everywhere. George: sorry about the mess! well, I guess that's what you're here for, huh sport? ha ha ha! George turns to converse with Dale, Onion lagging behind. George: the damn house got built in 1876 so you know it's all fucked up inside! been here six months and barely made a dent! Dale: yall got any pest control issues? termites? George: ohhh, rats? cockroaches? this and that! no wood borers though, thank god. Onion stops at the sound of whistling and looks through an open door into another room. The geometry of the house briefly bends out of reality, and Onion finds himself staring down a long corridor full of black doorways, at the end of which a blue ghost of a teenage girl is seen stepping just off scene. Dale smacks Onion's shoulder, bringing him back to reality. Dale: C'mon, trouble. Onion looks back, but the corridor is gone. Only a single room remains.

I’m begging you boho girlie influencers, stop putting succulents into wet closed terrariums! They will rot! It’s not kitschy decor, you’re committing slow motion mass murder in the 2inch succulent starter Home Depot section

Many comics look great but are badly written, or about fuck all. I own so many books like this. At the same time, if the story is real whatever, but the art is so entertaining, I can forgive it. Sometimes the way something is drawn can make you think more than how the story it’s set in reads.

I don't remember when we chased bugs
two dirty, bloody teenage boys sit on a patch of grass in front of a derelict mom n pop shop. They are turned away from each other in anger, but one still glances back a little, undetected for the moment.

Onion Pendergrass, the teen main character of the graphic novel project Blue Hollow, sits speculatively under a weeping willow on the river's edge during a gloomy afternoon.

Theres lots of suggested reading in my primary textbook for tree school, but this textbook was written by a hippie before the internet existed so it just says you should WRITE TO A FORESTERS OFFICE because they all once self-published and each have their own unique guides.

teenagers Bill and Onion from the graphic novel Blue Hollow share a kiss by large windows overlooking mountains, while bright green houseplants frame them in the foreground.

Hello new followers! Thanks for coming! If you've enjoyed what you've seen of Blue Hollow so far, join our discord community for wip work and pages as I draw them! We are still pretty small but we have fun! See you there maybe? 😉 discord.gg/b87eQrf8ch
a glowing maiden in a blue shroud turns and looks back at the viewer from where she stands in a graveyard at night, a huge nature cryptid looming in the background. three teenagers lounge on a fancy couch in a sunny room with big windows overlooking a range of blue mountains. one boy has his head in the other's lap, and their third member, a girl in a pink tanktop, kicks them as if to tease. two roughed up teen boys sit in the dry grass looking away bitterly from one another, having recently been in a fight. they sit in front of an old dilapidated country store. a boy in a camo jacket peers up from the log he's standing on to observe a massive white snake spirit, which offers the boy a small cage with a canary in it.

Lake Kaindy is a valley lake made by flooding in Kazakhstan, whose water is so cold that it preserved the spruce trees that grew in the valley for over 100 years. Underworld environmental design drop for you!
This image and all following depict ancient trees underwater, whose cold water preserved the branches drooping down like weeping willows.

Finally found some space for my hanging rack, which had been stuck in a corner in my room for 5 years and has now become functional. Do I have room for more stuff? Signs point to NOPE!
A hanging comic rack filled with tons of zines The hanging rack viewed at an angle to take in some of the shelving next to it. Holy shit that’s a lot of stuff! (Not even half of total stuff)
