Hihi! I’m back from break and starting off strong with these space cadets. Wouldn’t you love to float in space without a care in the world?

sad to report that not creating anything for several months at a time is actually exactly what art needs sometimes, and that's why my art suffers deeply when forced into capitalist commercial frameworks lmao

Happy Pride Month to the dudebros who think I am pretending to be Asexual so that all my women friends will have sex with me. Because being ace magicially makes everyone attracted to you as if it's some insanely horny trait.

People should lift each other up and cheer each other on, not try to outdo each other. The sky would be terribly dark with only one star.

With the success of the Kirby Circus Animal tote bag, which was sold out at #otafest , I'm working alongside @cafeaubun.bsky.social to bring more designs to the table, starting with these #mariokart sour gummies!

Stay tuned for more sweet prints!

I’m constantly working on new things, but they can take a while.

In the meantime, here’s a peek into my sketchbook!

artist alley things 🎨🪳excited to spend my whole paycheck at AB Artist Alley this year… muahaha

doodle with blue line art and light blue shading depicting Feeb’s Artist Alley experiences. The first half is labelled: [Me at Artist Alley as a Buyer…] Feeb, cosplaying as Angel Devil from Chainsaw Man, approaches a glorious Artist Alley booth labelled [COOL ARTIST], manned by a sparkling artist with an uwu smile. Feeb holds out a dollar bill and is shaking, sweating, and crying. Her rambling thought bubble reads: [I am but a lowly cockroach in the presence of such skilled and divine artists… everywhere i look i am dazzled by the beauty of their work and the talent of their hands. I approach their booths as a humble worshipper. These artists have travelled far and wide, hungered and thirsted, labored and toiled to be here and even just being in the presence of them and their work is more than i deserve, let alone take some of it home… I will cherish and protect every item I buy, I am so lucky to own works of art that are so beautiful.] The second half of the drawing is labelled: [Me at artist alley as a seller…] Feeb is seated at her booth, shaking and sweating and crying. A sparkling congoer approaches her table with a dollar bill. Feeb thinks: [i am but a lowly cockroach in the presence of such fabulous cosplayers and dedicated fans… i can’t believe they’re willing to spend their hardearned money on these meager goods my wicked gremlin hands have crafted… every print or charm of mine that is chosen to be a token of someone’s love for their favorite series/character is the dream of any artist alley exhibitor and i cherish every purchase… truly i am honored to even just sit here at this table]
