I miss and loved this old wallet I had. ;w;

Recently, I've been thinking deeply about myself as an artist. I get sidetracked a lot for a survival purpose, but now I’m choosing to finally get back to my graphic novel, How Lovely!~, I’ve carried for years, for myself and my younger self. Starting off with rough sketch, so to start running.
A rough sketch page filled with expressive character headshots. Different faces, designs, genders, hairstyles, and moods are shown in loose, messy linework. The drawings feel experimental and emotional, like concept sketches or warm-ups exploring personality and identity. Characters of the follow contains: Hope Fox, Taiya, Kuro Hebito, Kuro's dad, Mita Bold, Yamin Noor, Medusa, Auguste, Sahime, and Boom. In the center-upper-left, there is a watermark logo by Sakeozo.

When I was 14, I got myself on Encyclopedia Dramatica, a wiki-style website for trolls. It was for attention on purpose.

It turns out, from my findings, the side effects included long-term trauma and surprisingly decent hate fanart! :V And many more things I never told Obama via snail mail... 🫡🇺🇸🦅

This is long overdue. More states and communities are now engaging in discussions with actionable plans to hold ICE agents accountable. His heartfelt testimony highlights important points about framing this issue to emphasize social responsibility and community safety.

Art business win: I just got my first-ever supporter for this tier! I've been waiting for someone to buy this tier (or higher) on either Ko-Fi or Patreon, and now, I can finally go make *new* silly, cute stickers and small art prints monthly. It makes me feel good to reward who believed in me!
Screenshot of a Ko-fi membership tier titled “YUMMY SUPPORT,” priced at $15 per month, showing an illustrated banner of three tacos filled with green garnish, a horchata rice with cinnamon stick in purple bowl, and a small yellow hand signing "Sticker" in ASL, below the image is a green “Join” button, text stating “29 places left,” a short message saying the supporter is treating the creator to a snack, and a list of rewards including everything from the Tea Time tier plus monthly stickers and an art print mailed with a handwritten thank-you note.

The background is a solid red rectangle, and the artwork is done with bold, flat colors and visible marker texture. Signed with Destiny Slater | Sakeozo on 1-9-2026. The full art pieces. In a whimsical woodland with a giant rocky cave that looks like a fanged bunny skull mouth open, under the cave, there is a nun-like modestly dressed up anthro bunny girl with red spiky halo, she lifts up the skirt for three horned feral rabbits under her. In the front-left appear to be a giant fish with discordant colors, in the center of fish's eyes, is a skull. The fish is glowing blue.

My OC, Hope Fox, she hanging out with her scarfhands 🧡

Traditional sketchbook piece using paint markers, red colored pencil, and Sakura pen ink. It was pretty fun spending time in a coffeehouse, longest I've ever stayed! I love how she looks so relaxed here, like she knows she's cool asf. >B)

Hi! I created this cover art for Rylon the Leopard's Meltdown, and I hope it resonates with some of you. If you're interested in diving even deeper, I highly recommend giving his song a listen. Seriously please keep today's events in mind while you enjoy the music.

soundcloud.com/rylontheleop...
A close-up shot of a leopard with several scars clamped down onto a deceased and wounded nazi soldier by the neck. Both are staring towards the viewer, the leopard with the upper length of its muzzle scrunched up, it's eyes intense and glowing with a hint of blue, and the nazi with lifeless eyes, broken teeth, and blood trailing down from the neck, mouth, and nose along with tears. The background consists of a forest on fire with several mangled bodies strewn about. "Meltdown" is overlayed over the fire with the name "Rylon The Leopard" under it.

Excuse me, Bluesky? I am 30 years old who lives in PA and we require no such thing. Why should I have to give you my location and share my personal data just to allow me to see my mutual's work? What the actual hell, I feel so randomly targeted. I demand an explanation.
Screenshot of sakeozo setting with a pop-up, "due to laws in your region, certain features on bluesky are currently restricted until youre able yo verify youre an adult. Learn more in your account settings." Screenshot from bluesky setting, age assurance. Same description as previous image in the popup but there's a button saying "verify now" with note at the bottom, "ave assurance only takes a few minutes."

Sketchbook day 2. Not what I envisioned but I can make it exist now for the better result later on. It's a drawing of my original character, Hope Fox. I originally intended to draw her scarfhands introduce herself, but I didnt take account in the logics. Folks, this is why you thumbnails first!

Traditional art sketchbook day 1, Icecream the Sugar Glider. My character.

Used with mixture of drawing mechanical pencil, red coloring pencil, pink paint marker, and thin point marker pen of cyan and red. It was interesting.
A halfbody of Icecream the Sugar Glider, she is a female anthropomorphic sugar Glider in split color. At the bottom left corner there is a very tiny signature by Destiny Slater/ Sakeozo.

Get yourself someone who can look at you the way 3 of my geckos look at me, expecting more worms.
Three geckos looking at the viewer with huge puppy eyes with such intensity.

Long story short- Brought hornworm for my geckos but the worms grew too big too quickly, so I kept them and one of them recently became a beautiful moth.

Look at her vibrate!! She'll be ready to finally fly soon! Unfortunately because hawkmoth is not native to PA, I have to keep her until she dies.

"I EAT DRINKS." Goblin shark person declared.

Something silly I came up for fun after my boyfriend's cousin randomly requested me to draw a goblin shark person. I figured to animate this too because why not?? :V
