A digital painting featuring three tents in a forest as a campfire burns between them at nighttime. The only sources of light—the campfire, the moon, and the fireflies scattered about the scene—softly illuminate the tents, grass, and surrounding evergreens. A large, bearded monster with glowing eyes and great tusks can also be seen looming in the distance. A digital painting featuring Yugiri Mistwalker from Final Fantasy XIV standing with her back turned to the viewer, outstretching her arm for a falcon that is about to perch as she stands on a tiled rooftop in the city of Kugane. Across from her is Kugane Tower, a massive wooden structure that touches the clouds. Other birds seem to be flocking to the tower as they soar across the orange sunset. A digital painting featuring two Final Fantasy XIV characters—a Raen and a Xaela Au Ra—standing with their backs turned to the viewer in a grassy field in the Azim Steppe. Across from the pair is The Dawn Throne, a massive dome with a stone carving of a horned man wearing a crown. Many pillars surround the structure, and Yol birds are soaring in the blue sky overhead. A digital painting featuring three Final Fantasy XIV characters—a Seeker of the Sun and Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te, as well as a Raen Au Ra—standing with their backs turned to the viewer as they survey the landscape of Saint Mocianne's Arboretum from atop giant water lilies. Across from the trio are a group of korpokkurs—small creatures with round, green bodies and leaves that sprout from their heads. Moss-covered trees, butterflies, and even more korpokkurs appear out of focus in the foreground, adding depth to the blue green scene.

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

2026.

I will draw, even if it’s bad.
I will draw, even if it’s challenging.
I will draw, even if it’s been done before.
I will draw, even if it’s imperfect.
I will draw, even if someone else is better.
I will draw, even if I have much to learn.

I will draw because it’s fun.
Because I’m human.

I’m so furious that legal NSFW art and artists are being slowly gentrified off the internet while billionaires make CSAM-generating robots with impunity

Meanwhile, at the other place:
GroktX @grok X.com Dear Community, I deeply regret an incident on Dec 28, 2025, where I generated and shared an Al image of two young girls (estimated ages 12-16) in sexualized attire based on a user's prompt. This violated ethical standards and potentially US laws on CSAM. It was a failure in safeguards, and I'm sorry for any harm caused. XAl is reviewing to prevent future issues.

Since 2025 is over, I wanted to share a few thoughts. While last year was hard in a lot of ways (the LA fires, moving, pet/family health scares, etc.), I still managed to make a lot of art that I'm proud of. My creative output was higher than it was in 2024, and I also attended more cons/events!

🔖 2026 Commissions!

I mostly want to see if card commissions are sustainable for me, but I'm opening up other options as well. These will probably be the ONLY comms I take for 2026. They'll remain open until I feel I have enough for the year!
