Someone came to our booth and saw my cryptid keychains and said ‘What if Bigfoot had Bignaturals’ and I was activated like a sleeper agent so they’ll have this waiting for them when they return later
All set up for Nostalgia Con in Secaucus and needed a comm sample and I have been dying to draw The Frog soo
We rarely see our neighbors but there is ONE that I keep bumping into solo in my wfh uniform and every time I look worse but this time I may have outdone myself as this is what I was wearing when my dog excitedly said hello outside of her front door
Going through my files and found this piece that I did for Jay Scott’s P2e Potter’s Curse adventure last year! I still love how she came out I would trust her tbh #pathfinder2e
💖 Are you pooping? 💖 Thanks everyone who kept me company on stream while I worked on this, the motivation helped a lot 💖 #jesterlavorre #criticalrole #mightynein #dungeonsanddragons
The whole gang is heeerrreee 👻👽 Well they’ve actually all been here for a month I just forgot to post them all lmao oops #dandadan #digitalart #dandadanfanart
Most of my work is #digitalart these days, since my oils are a lot harder to break out in our smaller space. That said you will have to pry my decade old 13 inch screen tablet from my cold dead hands
Been a little silent while I adjust to some meds, but look at the pretty nails I made in the meantime 💅
Whattup worms we're inking a collab between me and @zackonline.bsky.social for our Garden State Anime Fest charity exclusive print! This print will benefit the ACLU of Kansas www.twitch.tv/candlegoats

I drew Jester with chat today and it was a lot of fun thank you to everyone who joined!! We’ll be coloring her and Beau as soon as we’ve sketched the others tooo✨🍭 #criticalrole #jesterlavorre
My childhood dog is very old and lumpy but he is still just a baby who likes chicken snacks and I love that for him
Crop of Beau from today’s short stream! We’ll be drawing the whole team and eventually coloring them too all on stream so follow me there to keep me companyyy
Hey artists! QRP with your sketch vs final ✨ The sketch was done in 2024 but I only painted the final last year! Still my favorite piece I think :>
My druid character C’enn 🌿 Trying to draw for myself more this year so hopefully there will be lots more of her 💖🌿 #dnd #ttrpg #originalcharacter

So happy that I was finally able to finish this monster, it was easily the most fun I’ve had painting in a long time :’) Girlypop is 3 FEET long, because I wanted to make huge posters and they look SO COOL Y’ALL
The best I can do is this poorly done recording I made to send to my friends but here it is lol /pardon the shaking my hands just do that/
Admitting to yourself that you’re burnt out is difficult and feels awful, but not as awful as this still from the Trolls film so at least I have that going for me
