Small painting of a small boy.
Photo of a watercolour painting outlined with black fineliner. It shows Tuffy, wearing his pointy wizard hat and cloak, both in blue and with a star pattern, and purple shorts.His left paw sits on his chin, in his right paw he is holding his star-shaped wizard staff. Tuffy is surrounded by an irregular pattern of circles that have a star at the center.

Reminds me of that one video of a black cat rolling around in a tub with glitter particles. The way the owner says "You need a bath..." to the cat has been part of my vernacular ever since.

When I started painting his fur, I realised that the brush I used still had glitter on it from a previous piece. So now Tuffy's got sparkly fur.
Close-up of the painting from the first post, showing some light glitter on Tuffy's black fur.

Photo of a fold enamel pin on a backing card. The pin has a flower shape with a blue stylized ribbons on the bottom. The words "No. 1 GenAI hater" are written in blue in the center of the flower shape. Close-up of an oval shaped sticker design. In the center is a cartoon style sacabambaspis, an extinct fish with an oval shape. The top half of the fish is grey, the bottom white. The face is simple with two dots for eyes and a triangle-shaped open mouth. I drew arms on the fish so he can give a thumbs up. Around the fish is text in yellow with a black outline. The text at the top says "Sacabam", the text at the bottom says "tastic", so it's a wordplay on sacabambaspis. Photo of a note pad in mostly orange tones. The design shows a massive comet with a face, saying "bye, bitches!". The body of the comet is a very light yellow and serves as the space to write on. The comet is heading towards a group of dinosaurs in the right corner who are screaming "Nooooo!" Photo of a notepad page in DIN A6 format. The design is a pokemon fanart of Maushold in pastel-like tones and greenish hues. Maushold are gathering different gorceries and put them in a basket that is filled with tomatoes, fruits and a jar of milk. On the right, a big Maushold is holding a piece of cheese, holding it up to a small Maushold that is sitting in the basket. On the left another big Maushold is holding a long bread, and the second small Maushold is dragging a bag of candy that has ripped open, spilling some of the candies.

I need everyone to know I have this picture of my cats, that @potoh.bsky.social drew and framed, on my desk at work ✨
A photo of a picture frame on a desk. The image in the frame is of two drawn cats, holding hands. There are two figurines by the frame, one is an angry grey and white cat (looking like the one in the frame) and one is a Slowpoke.

This is a trade sticker for cons - you give me something Maus, you get Maus sticker.
But I'll also put up a couple in my shop tonight 🐭🐭
Photo of a stack of stickers. The design is my catsona wearing a Maushold hoodie. They're surrounded by Tandemaus and Maushold merch, like plushies, trading cards, figurines, a mug and a bag.

pile 😪✨
a stylized illustration of three of the pokemon swinub all sleeping on each other in a pile on a dark blue background. Each swinub has a slightly different brown color palette to differentiate between them.

The latest move by Sticker Mule's owner. Please don't give these people your money (or honestly send them your artwork, you never know).
A Facebook post by Sticker Mule's owner Anthony Constantino. The post says "I support ICE ICE BABY. If you want a FREE T-shirt DM me your email". It has an image linked of a black shirt with ice-looking text reading "I support ICE ICE Baby"

Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace!

A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!
