another forest fae/dryad/whatever guy

#snekart

A digital drawing of a forest fae/dryad looking person coloured in shades of brown and gold. They're themed partly around oak trees, and there are oak leaves in their hair and some patterns a bit like wood grain across their skin.

so I made an account for personal stuff at @seasnakes

I post a bit about gender and plurality stuff there as well as little daily life things, because I felt like I wanted to keep that stuff slightly separate from art/fandom, I guess?

just wanted to say welcome to all the newcomers in the #introduction tag! I'm sorry about all the shit going down on bluesky and I hope you all enjoy it here and decide to stay. the fediverse can have a bit of a learning curve but for me at least it's been a really positive space for the most […]

I've been re-reading Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell and it made me want to draw creepy foresty fairies. I don't think I quite ended up with the same vibe as the book but I like this guy anyway, I kind of want to make him into a proper OC now.

#snekart

A line drawing of a kind of fae/elf looking guy, smiling in a slightly creepy way. He has pointy teeth and there's lichen growing on his skin and his hair and eyebrows look kind of like moss, and there are ivy leaves twined around his head.

"I'll make a fandom blog, for my fandom things, and post fanart there!" (proceeds to post nothing but figure studies and drawings of skulls forever)

A loose, sketchy drawing of a fat guy with long hair sitting down on a bed or soft surface of some kind. He's looking over his shoulder and looks slightly thoughtful or worried.

#amreading "This Is How You Lose The Time War", and damn, I did not expect it to be this gay.

the blorbos, from that book I'm still hyperfixating on

I spent way too long on this I'm just gonna post it

#thegrayhouse #domvkotorom #snekart

a digital line drawing of two young white guys lying on a bed, one with short blond hair and one with mid-length dark hair. they're both asleep, the dark-haired guy lying on the blond guy's chest and the blond guy resting his hand on the other one's head. it's roughly shaded and the lines are loose and contour-y,

how does drawing work again, I forgot

technically fanart but I'm pretty sure there's no other fans of #thegrayhouse on here? hope springs eternal though. plus I kinda like how it came out just as a picture anyway

a rough, sketchy drawing of a person (it's Tabaqui from The Gray House) with curly shoulder-length hair sitting in a rocking chair, drinking from a coffee cup. he's barefoot and wearing shorts and a vest with patches and pins on it, and has flowers and feathers in his hair. there is a black cat sitting on his lap. it's coloured in soft, warm earthy colours.

I wasn't even in the fandom! I've never watched it! I just remember the internet was really really into these ice-skating boys for a while, and I could've sworn it wasn't ten fucking years ago, jesus christ.

snek @snek.blorbo.social.ap.brid.gy · Aug 14

you know, usually those "did you know X was Y years ago, feel old yet??" things don't bother me, but this morning I found out that Yuri On Ice came out almost a decade ago and for some reason THAT, that caused me to wither into dust and disintegrate

Apparently it's International Owl Awareness Day? please be aware of owl.
#snekart #owlawarenessday

A loose, sketchy drawing of a tawny owl in flight, coloured in blocks of various shades of brown

[(nonsexual) drawing of naked person]

doing some more cleaned-up contour drawings

A line drawing of a naked fat woman lying down with one leg bent, propped up on one arm and looking upwards. It's got some simple shading and some squiggly contour lines across the body.

I remember the first time I saw a cat skull with the heart-shaped nose cavity and I was like holy shit. Cats are cute all the way down to the bones

snek @snek.blorbo.social.ap.brid.gy · Jul 28

Cat skull? Cat skull. Also mushrooms. #linedrawing #snekart

A stylized line drawing of a cat skull with mushrooms growing through it. The skull looks a bit old and cracked but is mostly intact and has all its teeth and the cute heart-shaped nose cavity.

So there's a new coffee place that's just opened near me, and it's really nice and I hope it succeeds, but it's very close to another cafe I've been going to for years, which I love, and I really hope that it doesn't hurt that cafe's business. Hopefully they can coexist, because they're going […]

congratulations orange mint moth, you're fulfilling your job description perfectly

snek @snek.blorbo.social.ap.brid.gy · Jul 23

just went to look up what species it could be, like oh I wonder what this pretty orange moth that loves mint is called

it's an orange mint moth

snek @snek.blorbo.social.ap.brid.gy · Jul 23

[bug picture (specifically a moth)]

These tiny adorable moths seem to really like my mint plants

they're so pretty

[family member death, uspol, transphobia]

my spouse's grandmother was suddenly taken seriously ill last week and died a few days later

we were not able to fly out to see her before she died or attend the funeral, because she lived in the US and we don't, and it clearly isn't fucking safe to […]

I saw a post a while ago saying that their phone was full of names stored like Sam Plumber and Lee Florist and Helen IT and John DontAnswer, and they suddenly realised that this is actually how English surnames have always worked

meanwhile mine is full of names like Rachel SophiesMum and […]

mostly because, honestly? Kinda what I'm called.

a small child pointed at me in the street today and yelled "[KID]'s mum" and I somehow managed not to respond with "NOT WHAT I'M CALLED"

eating once you've finished breakdancing would also be an acceptable option, I just don't think these are two activities that can be safely combined
