Photo study, added a pigeon witch

Photo study painting of a Buc-ee's mascot sign with "KEEP GOING" written underneath where a city's name would be. There are mountains, trees and sunset clouds in the distance. A pigeon themed witch sits on the sign. Drawn by gdbeeart, Aug 2025

Ever wanted to add a bit of Y2K flare to your graphics?

Here's a simple tutorial on how I made the Frutiger Aero button art for my overlays! 💎✨

✿[ #art | #arttutorial | #Y2K | #FrutigerAero ]✿

Visual Tutorial on how to achieve a Frutiger Aero Y2K waterdrop button effect for graphics.

1: Base Art - Keep art simple and rounded for best effect.
2: Inset Gradient from Dark to Light - Keep lightsource direction in mind.
3: Highlights - Bright highlights over the darkest area of the button + interior soft highlight opposite to it for max contrast.
4: Bounce Light/Reflections.
5: Dimension - Add dropshadows, outlines, and subtle gradients to add depth and imply the bevel of whatever surface the button is set into.

Dark and Wondrous - it's in the trees! it's coming!

@darkandwondrous.bsky.social

I love Ganymede, for its heft, its ripples—that subtle, wild tiger-stripe patina, & all that water is VERY cool.

But Pluto has fields of red fungus ribs, a huge, flat-yet-dimpled frozen pale ocean, it has a freakin butthole—I mean, kindof.

And Pluto has another side we've never even really seen…
