Cravings
Missing Winry

A photo of Winry, the chow/gsd/husky mix, laying on the floor, looking up at the camera, with a burrito shaped dog toy between her front legs.

Internet is down so I can't work ugh.

I took 3 days off last week and it was really nice so of course this week has to fuck me

On our walk today, one person called Brisco a "badass dog" and another person called him handsome. lol.

A photo of the handsome badass dog, Brisco, a husky/akita mix fully flopped on is dog bed with his head hanging off the side on the floor. He's a lump.

Is that what they're doing now? That's awful! I'm just a hobby artist with a pretty short reach so I'm not aware of much of what's going on these days.

This is the current state of The Commission™️

Needs shadows and highlights and some fiddly stuff

A digital art WIP of 8 anthro characters in kinda medieval/fantasy clothes. Behind the fence on the left are two females and a male, with one of the females standing behind them with her hands on their shoulders. To their right is a maned wolf female looking annoyed at a wolf male who looks a bit chagrined. To their right is a gray fox male standing with his arms crossed. In front of the fence, middle-ish, is a male and female couple sitting on the ground and snuggling. The grass is brown with some patches of snow, and the background is pine trees in front of a cliff face.

I'm overworking the hair and no one can stop me 😈

It's kinda right up my alley as a habitual skin picker 👀

Trying to decide between a "sexy devil" or "sexy vampire bat" costume for my fursona 🤔

Went to the optometrist yesterday to get an updated Rx and was also told the little oil glands on my eyelids are blocked so now I gotta do warm compresses and gentle massages to get things flowing again. Eventually, stuff should squirt out like tiny pimples. Exciting!

This Whimsical Horse Wednesday is a bat-filled night illuminated by the full moon 🦇🌕

A photo of a Stone Pebbles sized rearing mustang. It is painted with a glossy dark blue, starry night sky with black bat silhouettes. On the rump is a full moon (hehe).

I figured I better tackle the background since it's largely unfamiliar territory for me before I started adding shadows and highlights to the characters

Sagebrush @sagebrushstuff.bsky.social · 6d

I drew a cliff face today by just blobbing on darks, midtones, and highlights, then started overworking it (like I do) and said nooo and then just slapped a layer of light blue set to lighten and 65% opacity over it and said yeeeess

A nice 90s flashback for this #modelhorse prompt ✨️

Watching right wingers in a local fb group get mad about how a misogynistic homophobic and transphobic manbaby got hit with multiple fines for not following an ordinance requiring chalk writing/art on the sidewalks downtown be cleaned up by sundown

I often draw a ton of duds before I get my vision figured out.

Was working on the background for that commission and after spending too much time trying to figure out ✨️trees✨️ I had to stop and research and try stuff out. The left is the first attempt and wasn't going where I wanted, so I moved on to the second attempt (on the right) which might work for me.

A digital drawing of two pine trees. The left is a very messy sketch that was me basically rehashing what I had already been doing and knew wasn't working. I guess I had to get it out of my system before making the second attempt, which I'm more pleased with.

I've always wanted to give that a go 🤔

I managed to get the flat colors in on all eight of those characters 🥳

While on our walk the other day, I stuck a bunch of acorns in my pocket. Did the float test. Shelled them. Boiled them to leach out the tannins. Roasted them in the oven.

Even with cinnamon and sugar on them, they don't taste like much. lol
