Artists! Please show:

🍄 the first piece you did in 2025
🍄 your favorite piece of the year
🍄 your most popular piece.
🍄 your most recent piece.
A loose, sketchy illustration of my character Andi. She’s asleep in her bed while a spectral version of her is floating in front of her bed - a sleep paralysis episode. The spectral version of them is looking in horror as a monstrous, skeletal creature with black eye sockets and long, sharp teeth peers down at her body. A Halloween illustration of my Oakwood Hollow characters chilling on the stairs in front of a library, talking and enjoying some candy! Carlos is dressed as a zombie baseball player, Maya is Kiki from “Kiki’s Delivery Service, Naomi is Mimikyu, Ben is a Ghostbuster, Andi is a witch, and Robin is a Cowgirl Barbie. A Smosh Summer Games illustration! The refs (Damien, Amanda and Anthony) are all front and center with their hands in the middle. The two starting teams are in dynamic poses all around them. To the left are the Downtown Dairy Cows - Ian, Olivia, Tommy, Chanse, Courtney and Spencer. And to the right are the Hollywood Hotdogs - Trevor, Noah, Keith, Shayne, Arasha and Angela. My Meet the Artist illustration that I posted for my birthday just yesterday!

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

Carlos: Keeps important things secret as a way of “protecting people”
Maya: Bottles up negative emotions
Andi: Holds grudges pretty often
Ben: Shuts down when overwhelmed

What are your top 5 movie genres? Mine are:

- Roaring rampage of revenge
- Reluctantly, I must resume my life of violence
- On reflection, the risk assessment on our giant monster facility and/or attraction could have been more thorough
- Girl survives
- Crime but make it quirky

It’s #IndieAnimationDay! Staving off the animation industry crash, I’m focusing my creative energies in 2026 into making a new short film. It’s called “The Twig Gatherer” about a little bird just trying to make a home. Ramping up a crowdfund early next year to hire folks to help me make it.

I’m working on a larger video for this Friday the 21st (my birthday hehehe👀), but Oakwood Hollow’s pilot episode is officially in the earliest stages of production! The script is finished and I’m already mapping out some shots and thumbnails!

I couldn’t decide on a sweater design so I used both😘

#sweater #fall #autumn #sona #mascot #ocart #arttrend
An illustration of my sona wearing an oversized sweater. The sleeves swallow her hands, but she’s holding her left hand close to her face and the fingers are peaking out. The sweater is dark in color with a lunar cycle pattern near the neckline. There’s a garter with a heart strapped to her right thigh. I tried to replicate how my own larger body shape would look in a sweater like this. The same drawing but with a different sweater! This one is more autumnal with some falling leaves at the bottom of the body and sleeves. A post by twitter user RabbitSeasonArt with a sketch of an oversized sweater on a plus sized body with the caption “Peak character design.”

Can any dream interpreters tell me what this means?

So last night I had a dream about returning to my Animal Crossing island (I haven’t yet irl) and not only did the island have weeds, but my flowers had spread to the majority of the island and a bunch of them were labeled as “Wilting” or “Dead”

A really cool thing about this was that Starkid actually aired it on one of their livestreams! Which was such a huge honor for me, and I feel so privileged to have been able to work with them. I'm such a huge fan of all their work, so making this was such a joy all around haha. (2/2)

Something else I never posted here, my animatic for the song "As Cool As I Think I Am (reprise)"! This is another really lovely and tragic song about a budding relationship and what two people mean to each other. My big secret is I'm a sappy romantic at heart hahah. (1/2)
