Also! While I'm here, before the gross heat makes me retreat back into the shade of the writing cave: New birb painting! A Goldcrest this time, which is the tiniest bird I have ever seen. It weighs five grams. #art #birds

Acrylic painting of a goldcrest bird, sitting on a bundle of fir twigs. It has beige plumage, black and white wings, and a streak of yellow like a crown on the top of its head.

Not one but TWO #Patreon posts to round out the month! There are two of them, because I have painted enough birds to put them in a separate post of their own, and then do one for the digital art I've been chipping away at Y'all do like birds, right? #BirdArt #art www.patreon.com/posts/may-ro...

Acrylic painting of a black woodpecker. A medium-sized black bird with a patch of red feathers on its head and a long, yellow beak sits on a pale tree trunk. Its eye is yellow, and staring intensely. Its back is turned to the viewer, so you can see the detail of its black plumage.

Acrylic painting of a small group of long-tailed tits: three of them with completely white heads, one with the more common dark eyebrow stripe. They are small, round birds with black and brown wings and tail-feathers, and white chests and heads.

Sir David Attenborough turns 100 years old today, so to celebrate, I painted another fellow who is well into his old age - the Seychelles tortoise, Jonathan (194). Happy birthday! #art

An acrylic painting of an elderly giant tortoise, surrounded by peaches and peach blossoms, which are symbols of longevity.

You like birds? Because I've painted some birds and posted them on #Patreon, if you like that sort of thing. Like this chaffinch, for example. Referenced from an RSPB photo that had no artist-credit, unfortunately. www.patreon.com/posts/april-... #art #birds

Acrylic painting of a chaffinch in mid-flight. It's a bird with a reddish-brown face and belly, and grey feathers on its back, wings and tail. Its wings are spread wide, showing the pale feathers underneath.

Hemlock, Warden of the Woods, burnt ashen by dragonfire, furious and vengeful - and far away from home. We finished character creation for our Legends in the Mist-campaign this week, and I'm looking forward to playing her! #Emberwrought #OCsky #LitM #art

Which, uh. was a *while* ago. #art

A fake movie poster for the non-existent gangster movie Goncharov. It shows the partial image of a man in an old fashioned suit and overcoat, seated in an armchair. He has a gun in one hand and a pocket watch in the other, and his clothes are covered in blood.

dear bird-nerds of the internet. I spotted an unfamiliar bird in my garden earlier today, and I can't find it in my field guides. it flew away too quickly for me to get a good photo, so I drew a picture of roughly how it looked. can anyone tell what this might be? #art #birds

Coloured sketch of a small bird. It has a white chest and cheeks, and a black or brown beak, head, wings and tail-feathers.

#goblinweek 2025: the seventh and final goblin for the year! #art If you've enjoyed these lil' guys, please consider supporting me on #Patreon, which means I can draw more stuff. patreon.com/annalandin

A grinning goblin with long ears, dressed in many, many layers of knitted garments. It's got a red bobble hat, a yellow scarf, red leg-warmers, and a big red coat with giant buttons on the front. It looks very pleased with itself.

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 30

#goblinweek 2025, goblin #6: scarf-gob! #art I think this is my favourite of the whole series.

A grinning goblin sitting on the ground and really cozying itself up in the absurdly long, yellow and purple scarf it's wrapped around itself. It's long enough that it's draped like a cape over its shoulders, and loops around its head like a hood.

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 29

#goblinweek 2025, goblin #5: itty bitty baby gob! #art

A baby goblin sitting on a quilted blanket. It wears a knitted blue hat that covers its ears, and a long blue cardigan. In one hand, it holds an orange button with a big chunk bitten out of it, and in the other, it holds one end of the messy, pink skein of yarn it leans against.

#goblinweek 2025, goblin #4: crochet-spear wielding gob. #art

A grinning goblin dressed in black trousers, a white shirt, a purple knitted cape and a purple knitted hat with a yellow bobble. It holds a crochet needle like a spear or lance.

An elderly goblin granny, sitting on top of a big ball of yarn and knitting a long, striped, yellow and red scarf. She wears a red knitted cardigan and a knitted hat with blue beads hanging from it. She has needles stuck like hairpins in her white hair.

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 27

#goblinweek 2026, goblin #2: Button-collecting gob. #art

A goblin wearing a white shirt, black trousers and a blue knitted vest. It is surrounded by stacks of colourful buttons, and is holding a bright pink button in its clawed hands. It's attempting to take a bite out of the button, showing off its many sharp teeth.

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 27

I can't believe I almost forgot about the holiest of all holidays - #goblinweek! but have no fear: if it's one thing I know how to do, it's to make a bunch of chaotic lil' guys very quickly. This year's theme: yarn. Goblin #1: Bobble-hat gob. #art

A goblin with long, pointed ears and sharp teeth. It wears a long, knitted vest and a red knitted hat with a blue and yellow bobble. It is tugging at the long tassles attached to the hat, pulling it down over its own eyes.

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 26

Your lil' guys remain lil' 16-bit looking guys the whole time (and sometimes I do wish they got cool battle sprites too but WHATEVER) while the bosses go from being these kinda goofy-lookin' 16-bit guys to looking like THIS and they're always like 20 times larger than your party

A pixel-art style animated sprite of a man dressed in a fanciful version of a plague doctor's outfit, with the beaked mask. Poisonous rain drips down his coat.

QTP with a game you're currently playing! The Octopath series has some *amazing* boss sprites

Anna Landin@annalandin· Jan 23

time for some art! a 2025 piece I painted and finished a couple of days ago I made it in separate pieces, but my plan for gluing it together didn't quite work, so I had to resort to my trusty hot glue gun. We live, we learn, we cover up our mistakes with liberal amounts of hot glue. #art #sculpture

Sculpture of a hare with grouse wings, painted in shades of tan, white and brown. It stands on top of a pile of sculpted mossy rocks.

QRP with sketch vs final

A very rough sketch of a figure, with only the eyes marked on the face and no other features, no fingers on the hands, and with stars behind it scribbled the way you might in the margins of your highschool notebook.

A cartoon witch dressed in a warm winter outfit. She has long, fluffy white hair, and wears a long blue dress with a double row of buttons across her chest and stomach. Her long, dark blue cloak has a fluffy grey fur collar, and both her boots and gloves are lined with the same kind of fur. A red scarf is wrapped around her neck, and an arch of frosty stars encircle her.

we're watching the original Super Dimensional Fortress Macross for Anime Fridays lately and oh boy. this show had an animation budget of three dollars and a piece of string, and the three dollars went entirely to the combat scenes. any scenes with characters have a 80% chance to look like THIS

Screenshot from the Macross anime. A green-haired woman peeks over a broken wall. Her irises are pointing in different directions, as if looking at two points at the opposite ends of a football field. The subtitles read "No doubt about it: it's him!"

An elderly cartoon witch. She is a wrinkled old Chinese woman with a crooked back, long white hair and a gnarled wooden cane. She wears a long, loose robe with an ornately embroidered vest on top, and a wide-brimmed brown hat. Her clothes are in shades of cream, brown and blue. On her cane hangs a jade-green tea pot, and from it swirls a mass of steam that wraps around her.

A black and white comic page, with six panels. Excerpt from a longer sequence. Panel 1: On a rainy, nighttime road through the woods Noah looks up at Raith, and says "Er, yes? It's, um, a sandwich." Panel 2: Raith, in silhouette, only his eyes visible. "Sandwich." Noah answers "Yes?". Panel 3: The same drawing, but Raith's eyes are now curved, as if he is smiling. Noah asks "Are you hungry?". Raith answers, in a pitch black speech bubble, "Yes". Panel 4: Noah looks down at his meager sandwich and says "Oh, um." Panel 5: Noah's hands, rearing the sandwich in two. Panel 6: Noah, holding half of the torn sandwich up to Raith, saying "You can have half, if you want?"

A small, stout sculpture of a rotund figure with catfish-like features. He is wearing a dark blue naval uniform and holding a tiny harpoon. The sculpture is small enough to stand on the artist's outstretched palm.

It's the end of 2025! We made it! Somehow. It's been a real bastard of a year, but somehow I made stuff anyway. I rambled a bit about it, and my plans for 2026, over here: www.patreon.com/posts/end-of... #art #2025ArtSummary

Art summary for the year 2025. It is a collage of 12 images, one for each month. Some of them are colourful digital illustrations, some are black and white comics panels, one is an acrylic painting and one is a sculpture.

#TeaWitches 2025 edition. #art Day 23: Oolong Every other witch I've made this year has been some manner of black tea blend - because I like black tea more than other varieties - but tieguanyin oolong makes the list because it's delicious.

A cartoon witch dressed in traditional Chinese fashion. She wears a witch hat with long trailing veils, and she plays a traditional Chinese string instrument called sanxian. Her robes are white and saffron yellow, and the chest-piece of her dress is embroidered with flowers.
