One of my favorite parts about having animals in my art is that it spurs stories about animals from people visiting my booth at events.
Today I learned about a bearded dragon named Bilbo Draggins.
Day. Made. ☺️
(And yes, this is absolutely permission to share animal stories if you see me!)

I’m back home from my first Dragonsteel Nexus and WOW, what a magical ride!
Still decompressing post-event and have one more holiday market this weekend to wrap up the year, then I’m on an Artist Alley hiatus until MARCH to get some rest and new work done! (Still joining several Art Shows, though!)

I'm steadily wrapping up the pin designs for my #Pintober Mythical Bards campaign (ends in just one week on Nov 1!) and am really thrilled with how the haunted dragon came out 😍
Next, a gargoyle is in the works (and already unlocked!) with wolpertinger on the way!

Took a break from my current art projects and crowdfunding prep to do a new-to-me art thing just for fun. It was a nice mental break, and now I have a flower I made with my own two hands ^_^

Trying out the DragonCon hotel hunger games for the first time today and chose my Star Trek red shirt sweater to wear.
Fingers crossed for a lucky day, but it would be a *little* funny if, as a newbie, I miss out in traditional redshirt fashion 😆
Either way, we’re living on geeky vibes today!
