Hello! I'm Jean Cabot and I do #comics and #ceramics.

My hubsite is hamsterbandit.com which also contains the fiction I write, which is primarily ghost stories.

My #webcomic is hamsterwheel.art which is a diary comic where events are MUCH more impressive via presenting them as a hamster.
Comic. A snowboarder is shown doing an amazing feat labelled 'Olympian'. Following this, a hamster in snowboots labelled 'me' gets on a snowboard and immediately explodes. Comic. Hamham and his mother (a guinea pig) are emptying boxes on a deck. They discover Hamham's baby shoes in the latest box and Guineamom has a flashback to when Hamham was very small and wearing them. Hamham says 'so. Trash?' and a tear-filled Guineamom says 'you have misread the moment, my child' 3 ceramic cats around a loonie. 3 ceramic hedgehogs around a loonie.

Vacationed one year in Big Rock Candy Mountains. You could do the Lake of Stew Canoe Adventure or the Lake of Whiskey canoe tour package. We opted for the whiskey lake, because honestly the one made of stew didn't look or smell right. Also found out I'm allergic to cigarette trees on that trip!

It's my birthday today! ☺️
If you could spare a repost, it would be much appreciated!
A woman with pale skin, white hair in two braids, and delicate gold tattoo on her face floats in the night sky with a full moon and starry sky behind her. She is wearing a thigh length purple dress with long sweeping sleeves. There are glowing blue lines etched on the fabric of the dress, and two ribbons of light with geometric patterns are trailing behind her. A ring of magic with glowing orbs is circling around her as she floats. Commission work done for YeetMaur A dark skinned man with dark brown hair and a beard framing his jaw, dressed in a white robe and dark brown pants crouches with one hand on the ground as he swings at demons with his katana. The enemy demons are dressed in red rusting armor that looks worn and damaged. The scene is set in a bamboo forest with a path cutting through it, red banners on either side of the road. It appears to be in the afternoon, with a rich orange glow streaming in between the bamboo. A man sits in his study, contemplating a dark, box shaped artifact, while a dark spirit looms behind him. This was a commission work done for JacenLandry

I received a question on Tumblr about the origin of the term "The Dreamfaders", which Waiohana (the sharkfolk) used in the past to refer to humans in the story, and I was inspired to do a few things.

Its origin is attributed to an old legend about the discovery of an enigmatic fossil. 💀✨
The illustration depicts a human skeleton curled up in a fetal position, carefully preserved in a small grotto adorned with arched ornaments. A fish-shaped incense burner emits a greenish smoke around it. The human fossil appears to be worshipped by the sharkfolk as a ceremonial object with mystical properties.

I fancied getting back into sculpting which I hadn't done since school. This was based on my Pedro monster I did for one of my books (first pic). SO MUCH FUN. He keeps an eye on me in the studio now. #monster #sculpture #airdryclay #cutemonster #sillymonster #funny #pinkbottom

Sitting as a dog might sit on its haunches and looking back at us (so we can see his bum) with three orange eyes and a grin and two long ears. He is purple with a green belly and his bum is pink. sculpture of a fat little monster with a pink bottom, green belly and purple back.
