And here’s the artwork by itself, plus a version where you can see her ears in all their glory 😊 #animalcrossing #digitalart

alternate version of the anthro Rosie design, showing the full artwork without any additional text on top.
Rosie wears a puffy yellow dress with pink and red accents, a cherry pink puff-sleeve cardigan with a white collar and orchid pink bow, matching ribbon boots, and a cat-eared beret hat adorned with another pink ribbon

another alternate version without text, this time removing her hat so you can see the fluffy blue ears on her head

🌸 Yoshi 🌿@sakurakirby· 1d

Rosie always wanted to be a pop star, so I gave her that reality in catgirl form lol 💙🎤 #nintendo #animalcrossing #characterdesign #digitalart #fanart

Heyy! Sorry for disappearing for like 2 months (work and life got in the way again), but hopefully this big summer group piece I worked on in that time will make up for it a bit! 🩷💛🩵❤️ #nintendo #mariogirls #supermario #digitalart #fanart

digital art featuring Princesses Peach, Daisy, Rosalina and Mayor Pauline all posing together for a group photo. they are wearing coordinated summer outfits inspired by the vacation look Peach wears in Odyssey and Mario Kart (and are also inspired by real life women’s summer clothing from the 1950s era)

the process of making this spanned over 2 months, starting in late May and ending in July 2026

Happy 2nd anniversary to TTYD’s remake! To celebrate, here’s a human Vivian I designed 🔥💕 #nintendo #papermario #supermario #vivian #ttyd #digitalart #fanart

Digital art of an anime styled girl (meant to be Vivian from Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door) with wavy pink hair, dark skin, and purplish pink eyes. She is seen doing a magical girl style pose, with one leg bent in front of the other, one arm stretched out, and the other waving to the viewer. She is smiling and winking as well.

Vivian wears a red and white striped witch hat, with a short purple cape draped over a burgundy vest and long puffed sleeve blouse. The cape features a thin red ribbon with a red amulet attached to it. She also wears a purple knee length pleated skirt, lacy black tights, and dark brown lace up boots.

The background is a dark purple base with several glowing ember and light effects throughout, as well as a large flame effect taking up most of the center area.

Made in May 2026

Bonus version without the white outlines and shadows... plus, Kirby showing off something cool I did with it! 👀

same artwork of Princess Peach in paper form, except the thin white outlines and shadows have been removed so that the art looks more like the classic Paper Mario style

Tried drawing a MKW Peach in the style of TTYD remake! I think she turned out pretty cute 🥹💖 #supermario #mariokart #papermario #princesspeach #digitalart #fanart

Digital art of Princess Peach in her sightseeing outfit from Mario Kart World, drawn in an attempt to mimic the Paper Mario TTYD remake art style as closely as possible (which was surprisingly easier than I thought it'd be!)

She is drawn in the pose where she’s leaning forward with her legs bent in front of her, with one arm stretched out and the other bent upwards with her hand pointing one finger towards her face and winking.

The background consists of a colorful pastel gradient, with sparkles and bokeh effects throughout. Centered behind Peach are three cherry blossom cutouts, revealing different parts of a screenshot I took in game near the pink cherry trees by Peach Stadium.

Drew a cute looking Peach recently, so now I’m sharing it with you guys! 💕😊 #nintendo #mario #supermario #princesspeach #digitalart #fanart

Digital art of Princess Peach in her standard pink gown, drawn in a sticker like style with a rainbow behind her. She is smiling contently and waving to the viewer.

The background consists of a simple two tone gradient that goes from pale yellow at the center to a pinkish purple at the edges. A few stencil outlines of glowing sparkle shapes are placed on opposite corners from Peach.

I offer some Sailor Neptune art for your timeline today 🌊👗 #sailormoon #michirukaiou #anime #digitalart #fanart

Digital art of Sailor Neptune dressed in a long flowing teal green dress, with a glowing effect highlighting her against a deep sea background.

The dress features a ruffled off shoulder top, silvery blue crossover straps around the neckline, and pearl beaded chains along the torso.

The same beads can be seen on both of her wrists as bracelets, and on her head as a partial crown. She also wears silvery blue drop earrings and gold heeled sandals with the same type of gem adorning the top of each shoe.

Hey there, it’s been a while but I’ve finally got some new art to share! Was hoping to have this done in time for the game’s anniversary, but a few days later is okay too, right? 😅 #nintendo #papermario #superpapermario #mario #digitalart #fanart

digital fan art of two characters from Super Paper Mario, Timpani and Blumiere.
Timpani is a light skinned woman with auburn hair, wearing a pink open-shoulder dress with lace paneling at the neck, and rainbow details at the sleeves and hem.
in her hair is an accessory that looks like the butterfly Pixl, Tippi.
Blumiere is a dark skinned man with pointed ears and long blue hair tied into a ponytail.
he wears a beige top hat with a blue band around it, and a long beige cloak with a pastel gradient halfway to the bottom.

both characters can be seen with gold wedding bands on their left hand.

they are seen walking together on a grassy hill, with Timpani’s hand holding onto Blumiere’s arm.
both are smiling with their eyes closed, and a small teardrop can be seen from one eye each.

sketched in March i think? then lines and coloring finished in April 2026

You know, I’ve never considered myself as particularly *great* at playing Mario & Luigi games… but losing my bros in the same turn I would’ve defeated Bowser is a new one even for me 🫠

photo of my 3DS being held with one hand, showing the result of my recent attempt at fighting Bowser in Toad Town in Bowser’s Inside Story. (for context he used Goomba Storm on me, which I am not great at dodging)

Mario and Luigi are lying dead on the floor alone, because apparently despite my absolute trash dodging skills I still managed to counter him with enough damage to kill him too (I did not choose to waste a Retry Clock on this tho)

Been wanting to draw this cute outfit for a while now, so here I am posting it for Valentine’s day! 🥹🌟 credit goes to @sarukaiwolf.bsky.social for the original design! #rosalina #mario #nintendo #digitalart #fanart

Digital art of Rosalina wearing a cute date outfit, sitting at an outdoor cafe table with a vase of red roses on it, and a slice of cake (chocolate layers with a vanilla center, strawberries, and chocolate syrup on top) placed in front of her. She is smiling and waving to someone off screen, as if greeting them to sit down with her at the table.

Her outfit features a white ruffled blouse with visible shoulder straps, a long blue plaid skirt reaching to her ankles, a reddish purple beret with a small star pin (resembling her official outfit’s brooch), a black choker with gold star charm and matching earrings, a silver ring, teal blue bangles, and silver heels

Seems Daisy took this whole “dress up for your date” thing a bit too seriously, leaving poor Luigi at a loss for words <3 #nintendo #supermario #luaisy #comic

digital art of Princess Daisy (seen from Luigi’s perspective) in a cute casual outfit, cheerfully heading towards Luigi.
her outfit features a short sleeve yellow blouse, a white skirt with yellow tulip print, a brown belt with a flower buckle on it, and small drop earrings with a matching flower at the end.
her hair is tied into a ponytail with a yellow scrunchie, and she has another one on her left wrist.
the background is done in a traditional shoujo manga style, using a light yellow and pink gradient with light bubbles, clouds, and sparkles.
Daisy says “Hey sweetie! Are you ready for our date?”, winking at him and smiling, with her right hand positioned to make an “L” shape.
Luigi’s surprised reaction can be seen through a small box in the lower right corner, where he is seen eyes wide open and blushing

(made in January 2026)

extra tags for categorization: #princessdaisy #luigi #digitalart #fanart

simpler style digital art showing the aftermath of Daisy’s arrival for her date with Luigi.
she stands in front of him with her eyes closed and arms folded behind her back, smiling and asks “Well? Aren’t you gonna compliment my outfit?”
Luigi (who looks very flustered) stutters out a response that spans several text boxes “I uh, well… Y-you look… Just… wow! Oh! B-but not in a bad way or anything! I just mean, um… It’s really cute!” (quietly “A-and you too!”)
Daisy responds “Hehe! You’re cute when you’re nervous~”
Luigi’s outfit features a teal green long sleeved overshirt with burgundy pants, an orange tshirt, and dark gray converse (i realized the color scheme is reminiscent of a certain cartoon platypus… so i drew a little fedora on his shirt as a funny reference to that)

Decided to do some painting practice recently, and I liked the result so now I’m sharing it with you guys 🙂 #animalcrossing #acnh #digitalart #digitalpainting #landscape #fanart

Had to bring up this one specifically because I had no the number was so high?? Like this is honestly close to my New Leaf total, which was counted across two copies of that game! 0.o

screenshot of one section from my Nintendo year in review timeline, showing Animal Crossing New Horizons was played for a total of 1009 hours since 2020

🌸 Yoshi 🌿@sakurakirby· Jan 14

Unsurprisingly, the Nintendo games fangirl has a history of playing (mostly) first party games on her Nintendo systems :b

screenshot of my 2025 gaming summary from Nintendo
it says i’ve played 23 different games for 343 hours last year, with my most played ones being Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, and Fashion Dreamer (which ironically i haven’t touched since those other games came out)
the month-by-month chart shows a range of total hours, with the fewest being May at 3 and the highest being June at 56 (kinda funny how they’re consecutive like that too)

screenshot of my 9 years of gaming summary from Nintendo, showing my top 20 most played games across both systems
from shortest to longest play time, the list shows: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe,
Kirby Air Riders,
Kirby and the Forgotten Land,
Super Mario 3D All Stars,
Suika Game (lol),
Minecraft,
Kirby Star Allies,
MySims (it’s counting both games in the bundle together),
Donkey Kong Bananza,
Mario and Luigi: Brothership,
Paper Mario TTYD,
Luigi’s Mansion 3 (i’ve played that game like 3 times already haha),
Mario Kart World,
Clannad (i was trying to get all the endings lol),
Super Mario Odyssey,
Super Smash Bros Ultimate (was honestly shocked to see it so high on the list lol… i haven’t touched that game in years!),
Xenoblade 3,
Xenoblade DE,
Xenoblade 2,
Fashion Dreamer,
and Animal Crossing New Horizons

Hello #portfolioday! 💕 I don’t really have any services or merch to promote (maybe one day 😅), but here’s some of my favorite artworks from last year plus a recent one!

digital art of Princess Daisy drawn as a mermaid, based on Princess Peach Showtime

her design features a yellow bikini top with sheer puffy sleeves, a green/orange gradient tail, and orange fins arranged in a three pointed shape (similar to Super Mario World’s Fire Flower design)
her accessories include a seaweed crown, green flower-shaped earrings, and a pearl necklace with matching bracelets
the background is an underwater scene featuring various ocean plants and creatures (designs sourced from Super Mario Odyssey), blueish-green painted water, and a cameo from Princess Peach

made in July 2025 (but published in November)

digital art of Rosalina wearing a dark blue, sleeveless ruffled gown with a starry pattern all over
she has matching long gloves and a choker necklace, shining blue star accessories, and a silver crown with blue gems in it
her makeup includes sparkly blue eyeshadow, peach lipstick, and white glitter details on her cheek
she is shown from the waist up, holding both hands over her chest, with a serene expression on her face
the background features a faint prismatic halo around her, over a deep blue starry sky

made in November 2025

digital art of a magazine cover for a fictional publication named “Ms. Nintendique”, featuring the same female character drawn in two similar outfits
there are three blurbs of text on the cover: in the upper left corner, one reads “Start the year off right with these fashion-forward trends!”
below that one, the second reads “New year, new you:
Olivia's guide to a perfect makeover”
and the final one in the lower right corner reads “Inside: Grace shares her favorite looks!”

the left side foreground drawing shows the character in a waving pose and smiling, with her hair styled into a spiraling ponytail
she’s wearing a black jacket with a burgundy vest and cream blouse underneath, a black skirt with a piano keys design down one side, and a dark red ribbon on her head
on the right side behind is another drawing of the same character, this time with her hair down and a more calm expression/pose
this time, she is wearing a burgundy jacket with a tiered white dotted skirt, a black floppy hat with red ribbon, and a gold heart charm necklace

sketching and lineart were done in October 2025, and coloring/background were done in January 2026

I love the idea of a tiny Mr. L just yelling at everyone and they’re just confused about it 🤣 #nintendo #papermario #superpapermario #mario #mr.l #sketch

digital sketch drawing of Mario, Tippi, and Mr. L from Super Paper Mario during the chapter 4 boss fight, but Mr. L is smaller than Mario
Mario looks at him quizzically, while Tippi floats above saying “Is he… supposed to be that small?”
Mr. L is just flailing his arms like a child and yelling “The Green Thunder will destroy you all!!” in a high pitched voice

So apparently one of my all-time favorite anime is 15 this year?? 😭 I didn’t have anything new prepared (hope that’ll change by the time the movie releases!), so please accept this Holy Quintet piece I made in 2023! #madokamagica #pmmm #まどマギ #digitalart #fanart

I saw a dress like this online recently, and decided that Peach should wear it 💕 (plus a version with gloves cause I thought it looked nice) #nintendo #mario #princesspeach #digitalart #fanart

digital art of Princess Peach wearing a glittery pink short dress with a big bow decorating the shoulders
paired with this dress are a set of matching pearl jewelry (including a necklace, bracelet, and earrings), and sparkly gold shoes that match the brooch on her bow
her hair is pulled back into a short braided style that wraps around the lower part of her head (i was trying to channel a little bit of Yor Forger energy with this one)

the background is meant to look like a pink castle room with an open balcony that looks out to the night sky
there is a cream stone tiled floor that is slightly reflective, and a white beaded string decoration hanging from the ceiling

made in December 2025

the same as the previous image, except now Peach has long lacy white gloves added to the outfit

Hi, I drew my original avatar with two old favorites in honor of Animal Crossing Wild World releasing 20 years ago this week ❤️🏡🍂 #digitalart #fanart #nintendo #animalcrossing #rosie #filbert #oc

Digital art of a female human player and two animal villagers on each side of her, drawn in a style reminiscent of Animal Crossing: Wild World

The player character has brown hair, blue eyes, and wears a red hair ribbon with a white and pink dress
(i ask to suspend your disbelief for her eyes not being brown like the actual character model… if i could have done so back then, she would definitely have had blue eyes lol)

The villagers are Rosie (a blue cat with pink blush, purple eyes, and a pink/purple diamond pattern dress) to the right, and Filbert (a blue squirrel with a white/blue forehead stripe, pink blush, and white shirt with pink flowers and a bowtie) on the left

They are placed over a solid yellow background, with green text around it that reads “The friends who started it all”

Hi, I edited a meme to summarize why I’ve been a ghost for so long <3

despicable me gru presentation meme (the one where he’s explaining his plan to the evil bank guy, but the last page wasn’t part of his plan)

panel 1: “haven't drawn anything in months, so let's try to get some motivation”

panel 2: “we’ll play style savvy!
fashion has always worked to inspire my drawings”

panels 3 and 4: “instead of drawing, i'm now playing 2 style savvy games at the same time”
