Agreeing with 'Maga' Joan Hart on something like this was NOT on my 2026 bingo card.
But, here we are.

1) Crystal Mountain, 2) Sex Machine, and 3) Body Pattern 001 26. Number 3 may change in the future, though, because I saved layers before adding more, and got distracted before I could save the original finished piece. So all I have is a low quality watermarked one. Zoom way in on it, though.

I wasn't happy with the idea of painting a face. New plan is a layered painted paper body. The pic is a digital body edit of me juxtaposed onto my canvas pic as proof of concept, with some white added and color editing (orig canvas next to it). Not sure how it'll look finished, but not hating this.

Need to get my mind off of imminent demise. And if we can learn anything from everything that's happening is that life is too short to continue paying rent at Insecurity Village. So posting crappy phone, fat guy in compression pants bulge because I need to feel good about something for a minute.

I still need to get the rope. Unless I have some in the bottom of a drawer, but I'll have to check that tomorrow. Probably after I drill the holes.
Bluesky daily vid number 3, dumb dad joke cat tree edition!

I used 1 cup of oats for each 1 package of fruit, but experiment and add everything to your taste.
Use hot water to make it after. From a kettle is perfectly fine. And something else goes here, but I don't remember what I was going to say. Enjoy.

Vid 1: Quick 1rst for daily vids (my vid of my cat wasn't part of this). I'm trying to stimulate my brain a bit, and somewhat see if I can make myself not change interests for a while (AuDHD, and things). Exceptions are for mental/phys health, and uncontrollables like emergencies and tech issues.

Now, he wants to attack me because the sneeze I just sneezed offended his ancestors and I must pay. But earlier, hims was being adorbabal.

The title is above my sig. Trying to do things. Going to start sharing daily 30 sec videos either tonight or tomorrow. Just randoms. Will try to keep it going until at least the end of January. More deets later. Just hoping to get some brain power flowing again.

Haven't started an art alt yet, so posting this here. Work in progress. It isn't wood. It's brown paper acrylic-varnished to stretched canvas, with some impulsive paint spread on it. Looks like something to me, though. Did a chalk outline of what I want, so I'll see where it takes me.

Much like myself, my cat has also chosen to give no fucks today.

Why are you gay?

Not for sale or anything. The back looks like garbage, and I glued on a jar lid (with foam pieces) to hang it. But I think it looks good for something I made out of cardboard when I got bored. 19" from nose to fin tips. Just make something sometimes, and have fun once in a while.

Working on making Ko-fi pages for each of these now. Made with recycled paper (homemade paper pulp, packed by hand into molds, then painted and sealed when dry). One darkly inclined tray, and four holiday ornaments so far (signed/dated), but more recycled-paper trays and decorations on the way.

A sneak peak of some of the things I've been working on for the last few days. They started off as experiments using homemade, recycled paper, that I decided I liked enough to keep going with. Finished items soon...I think. We'll see. Dealing with some burnout, or something. But I'm trying.

I've had this arm trainer for about 2 weeks now. Anyone know how to stop these from hurting your hands/wrists? My knuckles and carpal tunnel have been having a bad time trying to make it work.
Also, please excuse the cat hair. I usually lint roll, but didn't think to here until after taking the pic.

Had a migraine since yesterday. It's gotten better, but hasn't gone yet. Couldn't go anywhere or do anything, so I did some digital arting. First I oldened a pic of me (think I did the water damage pretty well). Then I got inspired by a different pic (not mine) and created a goblin.
