We’re in a pleasant forest setting, with lots of greenery and the sun peeking through the canopy. We see tree houses made of natural materials on the trees. A young, dark skinned elf is running madly towards the camera, laughing. He’s holding a chicken under one arm and a rope strung with strange berries in the other hand. A whole flock of chickens is following him, apparently crazy about the berries. The chaotic scene is being watched by two shocked bystanders. A ladybug clad in an armor made of leaves and flower petals stands on a large white flower. They’re wielding magic wands, a spellbook and a shield made out of a seed husk. White war paint adorns their face and shield. They are casting fire spells against a horde of wasps. Evithorir, painted for Critical Role by Zoe Badini. Evithorir is described as an elven figure perpetually shrouded in shadows. Its face is pale gray, its skin is pulled tight against bone. Its teeth are crooked and elongated and its eyes glow. In this scene it stands in front of a large glowing green crystal pillar, surrounded by black and greenish flames. Its body flows and disappears into the shadows. Its hands are lifted at its sides, casting more dark shadows. Hidden and trapped inside its chest we can glimpse a reddish emaciated figure. Scream, painted for the 2024 Upper Deck Fleer Ultra Matriarchs of Marvel set. A monstrous, tentacled figure emerges from the mist. She has large milky eyes, a wide mouth full of sharp teeth and a long extended tongue.

Just went through these settings, changing some, and came back to a homepage with a ton more posts, none of which were actually rude or offensive in any way, they were apparently just randomly labelled as such. 🙄

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Beau Bear adventurer, a painting I did last week as a gift.
8 hours in total start to finish, most of it being done in one session with a second session to tighten some areas up.

I quite like it despite being a fairly quick painting, maybe animal adventurers is my new thing?

Oils on paper 9x14"
A baby bear with a walking staff made from a maple branch is on the start of an adventure through a field. Orange butterflies are resting on the staff with dozens of butterflies flying in the background and resting on white flowers.

Painterly bust portrait of a kindly earth genasi woman. She has a soft, sweet smile. Her skin is warm grey with a pearlescent sheen where the light hits. Her hair is dark brown, curly and arranged in a messy low bun. She wears a purple cloak with a thin gold border over a simple cloth tunic in an orange shade. Her jewellery is gold: sunburst earrings and a pendant of the Church of Lathander. The background is a pastel sunrise sky. Blackbeard tarot card painting from OFMD. A kraken tentacle emerges from the sea and has begun circling him. A rapier pierces his heart, where he holds a swatch of red cloth. The sword points to a distant lighthouse on the horizon Compilation of three stylised headshot portraits of Angela Lansbury as Jessica Fletcher. On the leftmost she is smiling cheerfully. In the middle she has her classic disappointed face with eyes closed. In the last she stares in surprise. A stylised portrait of David Tennant as The Doctor and Catherine Tate as Donna. They are clinched close, both looking alarmed towards something offscreen to the right of the image. The background is a starry sky.
