Moray the pitiful thing that you are..

an absolutely breathtaking piece commissioned from @yawningyawns.bsky.social! Words cannot describe how floored this piece has me ☀️

A fullbody commissioned artwork drawn by @ Yawningyawns of Toorurii's OC, Moray.

The character is posed with her hands to her chest, casting a tense / burdened look upwards towards the sun-like light-source. There are multiple ethereal moth/butterfly forms of light circulating around this area.

The flow of the piece descends elegantly, from her moth-wing cape and downwards following along her legs, unicorn-like tail and hooves.

Ready your sand dollars— the party's about to begin~! #TIDELOOZA 🪸

TIDELINE PALOOZA is an adoptable event comprised of two types of sales formats: one GACHA release, and a series of COLLAB AUCTIONS that span the course of the event.

For the GACHA day of the event, customers may pay to pull a random design from our display of ARTESIAN and BATHYAL goods, or spend a little extra to specify which adoptable they’d like based on its PREVIEW.

COLLAB AUCTIONS are returning! A themed pair of ARTESIAN and BATHYAL adopts, our vendors' merchandise got swapped in the con-prep chaos, with artists creating fullbody designs for one another's goods. Purchase each adopt separately or attach them both to the same keyring!

Photos don't capture how this screen print glows like an ember IRL. Perfect for equestrians and desert lovers, each print is hand pulled and no two are alike.

First edition of 35, $25 ea. Measures 19"x12.5"
square.link/u/ZXcEwPy2

A scan of a screen print, bull's blood maroon on sun-light glo tone paper. Horses gallop on a field of desert plants. The words "I will draw horses" repeat twice in the upper middle of the image.

Notion is forcing you to pay more to support the crushing cost of genAI you didn’t ask for, now so is Adobe - more and more, companies are going to have to make someone pay for all this snake oil they bought… and it’s not going to be them.
