Hi! I'm an individual from Stockholm, Sweden, who likes a lot of things but especially horror, games, deep sea, fantasy, arts & crafts.

I mainly do digital drawings but also, since autumn last year, stoneware clay sculpting. I dabble in other things as well every now and then.

Two small stoneware clay sculptures, one is the head of a cat and the other is a bird.

A strange humanoid creature tooting a horn.

A spooky-looking face with completely black eyes, sharp teeth and worm-like things coming out of it's mouth.

A doodly drawing in fades of brown and red, with parts of a skull-like face with a yellow eye with green iris.

Noticed while putting together necklaces with my clay pendants that I needed more of the simpler pearls with larger inside diameter, to fit leather cord twice.

So, I'm making some. They look like tiny pots. (As long as you don't look from above and see they have no bottom)

A bunch of greenware clay pearls with different patterns are drying on a plastic lid.

I'm just saying, we could settle this with swords, instead of 30+ emails. 🤺

It's interesting how a large part of the US economy doesn't really seem to exist. Like, there's nothing there. It's just "value". Really just numbers, disconnected from reality.

I guess that's true of the rest of the world as well, but extra visible in the US right now.

If carved well maybe that could be something! 😄

They're called "medium knucklehead pumpkins" which makes it a bit better 😄

I think they're kind of cool-looking, but also look like they'd be spreading some kind of weird cross-species skin disease.

Maybe Dr Fresh was Mrs Fresh before she finished her studies?
Her husband is a candy maker. He supports her well.

I think he just notices it's "a prize" and something that gives someone attention - and so he wants it, even if he has to beat people up to get it.

Happy world squid and cuttlefish day!!

Text your friend a squid fact. Watch a video of a cuttlefish doing something cute.
Doodle a squid and then show it to me.

The world is cruel but squid are good.

I almost feel like I have.

Zxo @zxomon.bsky.social · 11h

I'll just be reposting last year's posts cuz why not.

This drawing I remember I did not like at all when I first finished it. But then I left it in the "unfinished"-folder for a while and it kinda grew on me. Nowadays I don't think it's that bad - it's even a bit cute.

Happy Halloween you all!

A humanoid pumpkin creature with long tongue, sharp teeth and glowy eyes look happy in the midst of vegetation.

Thank you! ^^

Root-arms are great for when one's too lazy to draw real arms xD

Seems a bit hard to really get an overview of the board with those but I still like them a lot! An interesting idea for a chess set!

Also I think I should read that book...

Well those ARE some really gorgeous pieces of driftwood, I got to agree.

Reposting other old stuff I posted a year ago when I was new to BlueSky!

Also, some nudity. Does it count? Wearing nothing but a pumpkin - just as nature intended.

The last week of October! The week of #Halloween.
I don't even have anything planned, I just like the season.

Here's another pumpkin-related digital drawing I made a few years ago.

A person sitting on a rock outside at night with a pumpkin over their head. The pumpkin's eyes glowing light blue. The person's arms looking like roots.

Nej, det är verkligen det hemskaste jag kan komma på, och något av en sån där "jag skulle inte önska det på min värsta fiende"-grej. När det gäller folk som spenderat sina liv åt att förstöra så många andras liv, dock... Då önskar jag det på dem.

But yes, he needs to go away. I want the war and everything else that's terrible around there to go away so both Ukraine and Russia can start to rebuild and have a future.

I prefer to wish all dangerous tyrants a good, decent stroke or cerebral hemorrhage. Let them end up with lock-in syndrome for like ten years. Because I don't believe in hell I at least want them to feel terrible for a while like that instead.

That doesn't sound very pleasant.

I'm not a christian and I usually don't care, but the catholic church is a huge institution so it IS kind of nice when they have a leader who seem like a decent dude!

He even sounds like what christians often say christianity is about. Like he actually believes in Jesus or something.

Pope Leo XIV has blasted how wealthy people live in a “bubble of comfort and luxury” while the poor suffer. In his first teaching document Thursday, Leo confirms that he is in perfect lockstep with Pope Francis on matters of social injustice.

A hollow clay ball with holes all around it.
I want to make more balls. It's relaxing. And who doesn't like a ball?

A rather dark clay ball with lots of holes poked through it, laying on a piece of white fabric.

I wonder why the human brain enjoys this kind of stuff.

Simple shapes, made into patterns, is fascinating and cool.
