Hello, new followers/visitors! I'm a digital artist in old mediums esp. #ANSIArt and #PixelArt, and an #IndieGameDev on itch.‍io! Some of my art's for mature audiences only; check your mod settings to hide/show it as you prefer. And if you want just my art posts, this feed is for you! Enjoy!
A lean, green, buxom fishperson with long parted hair standing in a green wireframe world while wearing red glasses, earrings, and a tight red satin blouse, along with form-fitting black satin trousers, greets the visitor to their website with a smile and a wave of their hand, their other hand resting on their hip and their tail lifted. The text says: "The Green Herring: Art, Games and More! This site is intended for users 18 or over! Welcome to my domain, where you can find my artwork, games, music and more. What would you like to see today?" A showcase of high-density ANSI art and pixelart. It includes "Circus of Dreams", a long ANSI art comic/tapestry depicting a circus which won 3rd at Deadline 2024; a tapestry depicting Sparkster from "Rocket Knight Adventures" flying into space along with his portrait; a Sega Mega Drive/Gensis pixelart title screen of a furry mage in a field; a full-screen Game Boy portrait; and various high-detail and high-resolution ANSI art images that include a trans kangaroo woman relaxing happily at the beach, fennec/red panda streamer RachelRetro leaping through the air carrying a Twitch Verified symbol, and a mohawked punk skunk in a jumpsuit carrying a pogo stick in a forest of giant mushrooms. Various lower-resolution ANSI art images with such images as: a farmer pig playing the banjo while sitting on the rusted remains of a robot; an alien explorer and their drone observing the ruins of a domed city; Krampus marching through the countryside at night drawn with colored outlines; a polar bear dancing to a boombox in the arctic while another stares in confusion; alien creatures on an alien world by a river of bubbling acid; two clasping hands against a black background with trans pride nail polish; an otter in an underwater cyberspace environment swimming away from a gigantic computer displaying FTP messages; a raccoon lady in a wetsuit surfing through cyberspace; and the same raccoon surfing a detailed wave in the ocean. A screenshot of The Green Herring's ZZT game "Cyber Purge" running in ClassicZoo, showcasing our nonbinary hero's fox head avatar facing down the fascist villain's avatar on the title screen, beckoning the villain to take them on.

I've got art in the works and I've been working on updating my Twitch stream setup, so in the meantime, here's a sneak peek at my PNGTuber in action in my new dress! :3

An #ANSIArt beach scene for @necrotext.bsky.social, featuring her and her wife @serpentsaurus.bsky.social!

In this piece of low-res 16-color textmode art, two smiling, heavyset women in bikinis sit on the beach eating ice cream sandwiches while looking at each other lovingly, supporting each other with their massive tails. One is a black Super Mario Bros. Piranha Plant with pink thorns, red petals and a green body covered in small thorns representing the plant stem, wearing a blue two-piece bikini containing her heavy bosom and bulge, along with spiked bracelets and a collar from which hangs a metal tag in the shape of a necktie. Her tail is green, starting dark and turning light at the end, and is tipped in a black ball with pink thorns. The other is a blue and black gryphon with tiger stripes and a white underbelly wearing a red two-piece bikini, whose top connects around its back and neck to leave room for its small feathered wings. Its tail is blue and fluffy with a white tip.

High-res #ANSI #fanart of a *modern* game, on *my* timeline? It's more likely than you think! Say hi to Sally the shopkeeper #opossum from the hit #furry #IndieGame #ATLYSS, as rendered in DOS VGA #textmode!

#Art #ANSIArt #FurryArt #TextmodeArt #PixelArt
A smiling, full-figured cartoon opossum woman stands in front of a wooden shelf of bottles and a crate of supplies, waving to someone just out of frame with a hand on her hip and her huge tail raised. She is wearing a green hooded robe with yellow trimming and red gemstones on the hood, tight on the top and loose in the sleeves, and a yellow apron with a crown design painted upon it with brush strokes. Nearby, she is labeled as "Sally the Shopkeeper", next to a recreation of the serifed logo of the game "Atlyss", including its heart outline.

Archantael, a fox woman with pangolin scales on her head, shoulders, elbows, thighs and tail, walks down an alley at night in bright teal techwear with off-white trimming and a smile on her face. She is wearing a short-sleeved zip-up hoodie with pouches on the front, cut to expose the shoulder scales, with her huge neck fluff free; long fingerless gloves cut to expose her elbow scales; cargo pants with straps around the legs and a skirt in the back, cut to show her thigh scales; and boots cut to expose the ankles and toes of her digitigrade feet.

In a piece of 16-color pixel art, a fuzzy red catperson with yellow slit eyes in a dress floats through cyberspace giving a peace sign with an open-mouthed smile. They are wearing purple earrings, a choker, a small black dress with gold trimming, and arm and leg warmers with black and yellow stripes. They have long white hair tied into a long ponytail using a large purple bow with lengthy ribbons. They are surrounded by a bright cyan aura, and streaks of dark and bright one-pixel lines implying their movement. The image is signed "TGH! 2025" with text in the corner reading "TheGreenHerring.NeoCities.org".

In a show to myself that one can draw anywhere with the right know-how, this pixel art cartoon cat was drawn on my phone with my finger right before work and during my breaks, then cleaned up at home (still on my phone). A friendly one, aren't they? [1/2]

A low-res pixel art portrait of a very fuzzy cartoon cat with yellow slit eyes looking on at the camera with a smile, in front of an abstract, dithered blue spotlight background. They are red-furred with golden eyes and flesh, a white tuft of hair falling forward between their ears, and white eyebrows. They are wearing a gold-buckled black collar which compresses the fur on their neck, causing it to fall over the collar and poke out from beneath it. The image is signed "TGH! 2025" in white block letters.

Let's properly meet Branlin!
Image Description: Branlin is a tall anthropomorphic bluish grey dragon with large horns that are splitting to reveal a platinum interior. She has scrap armor made from modified pieces of metal and shields used by smaller species. She also wields a giant spear with a broken great-sword blade as the point. Text Description: Branlin is the runaway heir to the Dragon Kingdom. She lives in the woods and helps travelers passing by (so long as they don't run away from her). She is also extremely afraid of heights and only flies in emergency situations.

Let's properly meet Maya!
Maya (she/they) is an ambiguous species of anthropomorphic dog person with bright red curly hair and light grey fur. she wields a crystal knife in one hand and a cane in the other. The cane has a lantern hanging from it with a soul inside. Maya has visible burned-in anti magic sigils all over her body. She has experimented on herself extensively in an effort to remove them to varying degrees of success. Such experiments also led to her developing crippling back pain and dragon-like eyes that can see perfectly in the dark, but fail to adjust for the day.

Despite what I normally commission, Balina Mahigan is often considered to be intimidating to those who have yet to meet her in person.

Her public reputation is one of an administrative marvel, effortlessly performing the work of hundreds even when most don't know about the robomoofs.

One Christmas morning, a lynx found a squirrel in her stocking. Here's what they've been up to since then!

#PixelArt #FurryArt #Micro #MicroFurry #MacroMicro #Transgender #GenderNonConforming #Furry #Art
On Christmas Day, a trans lynx woman who's just gotten out of bed stares at a tiny, gender-nonconforming squirrel man smiling at her from her Christmas stocking. Despite her stern expression, her thought bubble displays a colon-three cat smile emoticon. In the present, against an abstract spray-painted background, the two of them remember this scene while smiling at each other with a heart symbol between them. The lynx, with her fur brushed, is seen from the shoulders up wearing a leather jacket and a choker with a gold prism in the front. The squirrel stands on her shoulder wearing a cropped sleeveless turtleneck with a window in the middle, a pleated skirt lifted up by his tail, arm and leg warmers with boots, eyeshadow, and painted claws.

Oh hey, today's my birthday. That's as good a reason as any to do some art of my #fursona. While continuing to practice Kirby Dots. I think it fits a "psychic aura." #art #furry #furryart #protogen #psychic #localpsychart #kirbydots
Artwork of my fursona floating while sitting in a legs-crossed position, arms also crossed and head tilted forward in thought. There's a purple Kirby Dot-esque aura surrounding him.

Image 1 here is what I scribbled right before work yesterday. Image 2 is what I turned it into after I came home and reopened my #ANSIArt app. All you need to create strange worlds is imagination, something genAI can never have.

A bunch of crude, white, blocky shapes on a black background. There are two vaguely triangular shapes, a curved noodle, and an oval in the background; and in the foreground, there is a long, curving strip. The previous image's crude shapes transformed into science fiction textmode artwork by living hands. On an alien world, in a patch of blue ground surrounded by tall blades of blue grass, two magenta prism-shaped creatures with one eye each amble toward a white serpentine creature with a cyan underbelly and pointed ears folded against its head. Behind the snake is a giant, golden egg surrounded by shorter blades of grass. Beside the creatures, a line of red soil borders a natural, bubbling acid bath.

On the edge of a cliff, a small alien with a shell on its head sits with its child, a tiny creature that strongly resembles it, watching the vastness of space beyond their home. In the starry expanse, an aurora flows like river, bordered by fiery trails. Far beyond this display, a planet with an unearthly atmosphere spins peacefully. Between these, a creature resembling a manta ray, bigger than the planet, swims on.

Somewhere out there, creatures are traveling in formation.

#ANSIArt #SciFiArt #NoGenAI #TextmodeArt #Art #PixelArt #ドット絵 #NoAI
Somewhere in the starry depths of space, two sets of fiery alien creatures that resemble eels, one red with yellow eyes and the other blue with green eyes, travel together in a spiral formation. We look directly in the middle of this formation as they fly off into the vastness of space, disappearing into the center of the frame, their destination unknown.

One seven-hour weekend livestream produced this CGA pixelart of Blaze the Protogen (they/them), burning with fighting spirit and ready to take on all comers! [1/3]

#FurryArt #PixelArt #CGA #Protogen #Art #Furry #Retro
Rendered through four-color pixel art in a high-contrast palette, a protogen, a cyborg alien, in black armor stands poised to fight with a blazing aura flame in one hand, challenging the viewer to approach them with the other. Their hair explodes from the back of their head in a wild stalk, and the molded display that is their visor face shows a confident smirk. Their ears are long and pointed, furred within. Their black armor is dotted with big, bright gemstones implying the power that they carry; and their fingers and toes are tipped with sharp claws. They are wide-hipped with powerful legs, and their tail sweeps back behind them with the fur withered away at the end to reveal its metallic interior, ending in a massive claw. Their surroundings are lit up with a burning aura radiating from the protogen, that is pushed away by their fireball and their beckoning hand.
