Hello! I'm Olivia, most people know me for drawing dogs at this point. I'm a 2D animator/illustrator. 📣🐶

A watercolor painting of a happy white samoyed (Sprout) in front of a giant monstera plant. The first panel of the Cup Pup comic. A yellow puppy walks down a sidewalk lined with daisies. They are carrying a reusable cup in their mouth and wearing a backpack. Text: "I love my cup. I bring it everywhere." A tableau of 4 golden retrievers. 1 sleeping, 1 rolling on it's back chewing a teddy bear, 1 looking at the previous, 1 jumping happily at food on a counter. 3 white ducks swimming through lily pads. The 1st is carrying fairy bread and leaving sprinkles in its wake. The 2nd looks at a fish. The 3rd is wearing a flower on its head like a hat.

Good morning! I overslept this morning, so it's a slightly late walk. Off to the park I go!

A very good boy! 🐾🐕😍

An amazing c. 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian dog carved from ivory. This leaping dog opens and closes its mouth as if barking by using a lever below its chest.

The Met 📷 by me

#Archaeology
My photo shows a three quarter profile of an ancient Egyptian figurine of a leaping dog facing left. Carved from ivory, now a warm caramel brown colour with glossy surface. The dogs eyes are outlined in black, the ears are floppy, the mouth is slightly ajar (the inside of the mouth is painted red - not sen in my photo). The front and back legs are outstretched as if running at full speed. A lever under the dog’s chest opens and closes the mouth so that the dog looks as if it’s barking. Dimensions: L 18.2 cm × H 6.1 cm × W 3.6 cm. Dated to Late Dynasty I8, I400-I350 BC, reign of Amenhotep III who was Tutankhamun’s grandfather. The dog is mounted on a thin metal rod in a display case. In the background in the same display case is a ‘galloping’ brown horse, which is the handle of an ancient Egyptian fly whisk or light whip.

- You must be available at least some of Jan 3-7
- This call is open to Portland-area artists (we don't have funding to support travel to Portland, & we want to connect with the Portland art community).

We're scientists - this is a bit of an experiment!

All details are on the application page!

a world without trans people has never existed and never will
a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.

a 3d render of dachsbun, staring curiously into the camera. surrounded by beautiful fall foliage in bright reds and oranges, he's got a paw on a bucket that's filled with dog toys: a fuzzy donut, an ekans plush, and a round ball.

I don't want to talk about how long I spent on getting this, but I do need everyone to know I did it.
A photo from the Pokemon: Legends ZA game. Player character in a blue jumpsuit making a D shape with their hands (for Dyn4mo) in front of a huge Canari plush in a hotel room. The plush has cyan and ponder hair in twin tails, and a black and gold mask. She's wearing a yellow crop top with black and cyan pants.

This is my bi-annual pitch to check out Proton Mail, Firefox, and Duck Duck Go. I made the switch over a year ago, and I haven't had any issues. ✌️

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

After a brief vacation my store is open again! Now with a few signed copies of this book! 🐶📖
oliviawhen.com/store
Hand holding up the children's book "The Day Leap SOARED" in front of a flowering bush. Hand is somewhat covering text at the bottom that reads "Words by Blair Braverman Pictures by Olivia When". The cover shows a young alaskan husky (Leap) leaping over a snow bank at sunrise. Six other tiny huskies in harnesses on the right, and the musher and sled on the left are all cheering her on.

Some sketchbook paintings from a recent trip to NY! 🍂🍁
A gouache painting of an intersection with yellow, green, and red trees in the bg. There are yellow taxis and school buses waiting at the light with some other cars. A long haired person is walking a big grey dog, waiting to cross. The green street sign reads "5 Av". Below the painting in the white space reads "11/3/25 - 5 Av, NYC" A little white and brown spotted dog with a red collar and leash is waiting behind the yellow line in an underground subway stop. A train with the number 7 in a red circle is approaching. The floor is tiled, and there's an escalator in the bg. Text below reads "11/2/25 - 7 line"
