More old art, throwing it back to my “Mythic Pets” days: a commission of two precious pups, dragonified.
My favorite part of this commission was talking with the client about the doggos’ hilarious little personalities. They are so loved.

Quote repost with your character in different outfits!
Arta at home vs. Arta in her work uniform. Also a look at how I have zero consistency drawing the same character 6 months apart. I actually prefer the short-nosed, fat-cheeked look on the right, which is older.

Painting practice with an okapi.
The first time I saw one, I was a little girl visiting the St. Louis zoo. I was enthralled. They’re such mythical-looking creatures. I should draw them more often!

Happy Black Friday to those who celebrate! As you shop for gifts, please go first to small businesses and independent makers.
I’ll be reposting my favorite artists all day!
As for me, I can take on 1-2 more comms for digital delivery by Christmas, if anyone on your list needs a pet portrait.

Found another old sculpture of mine! Well, photo evidence that it existed, anyway. It’s long gone.
This was Rhiordan, a traveling warrior and a bit of a scoundrel. He was to be orange, of course.
I’m reworking his character a bit. Now his name is Ramble, I think, and he’s Arta’s foster brother.

I’ve been super negative today. To restore balance, let me share an old picture of my cat nephew, Deacon. One of the best cats I’ve ever known.

I had to have a similar discussion with Gaia when we first adopted her. She was clearly intrigued by the concept of Bed but was cautious about actually experiencing it.
Now she spends more time on my bed than I do.

Arta playing with baby brother Voyd.
She doesn’t always love having a house full of younger siblings… but she loves her younger siblings.

Just spent an invigorating 45 minutes thinking The Bitty had slipped outside and was gone forever, because I could not find her ANYWHERE. Not under furniture, not in closets. She didn’t come out when I rattled her food bin, for crying out loud. Only when I involved my husband did she materialize.

The Bitty is so snuggly, but she also looks so smug in every picture I take of her. Smuggly?

10 years ago, I made these sculptures of Arta and Osifa!
I left them with my ex and movers squished them while they were moving him and The Other Woman into their new place.
SO! I guess I should remake them with their updated design! Arta was nowhere near plump enough, anyway.

I went for a walk in the vacant lot next door to try to calm down and I found these lil cuties.

When you give Zeus a Busy Bone, he has to walk around the house with it for a while, like a little man smoking a cigar.

Update:
I burned the first batch and filled the house with eye-watering pickle-cheese cracker smoke.
But then I got it right. Delicious.

Something a little different… I needed to chill out and loosen up my painting, so I just scribbled a study of these colored glass bottles while binging Supernatural with the husband last night.

Just slowly falling in love with this cute orc blacksmith I’m working on for @bettybrownie.bsky.social and their Veridius Chronicles (available at www.patreon.com/c/EliHunt !)

Anyway, can’t share what I’m working on now, so here’s some old art: a commission of a pet axolotl as a water dragon.
I used to exclusively do weird/fantasy pet portraits and refuse “normal” ones.
