Thank you to everyone who came by my AA table at AnimeNorth! Sorry for the late post, I needed time to recover from the trauma of the flooding/the whole Square network/mobile internet going down for a few hours on the Sat 😂💀 Also big love/thanks to my helper, she's The Best!! 🤩😍🌈✨ #AnimeNorth

If you see this, post your bird art! I have quite a bit of bird art so let's do the "fanart" I did of Steve Rogers as a golden eagle and Bucky Barnes as an osprey 😂🦅⭐ #CaptainAmerica #Stucky #art #birbs

Reposting with alt text, and also my commentary. I think this situation is reflective of an increasingly common mindset I have seen in other artists, especially fan artists who directly profit from using a big company's IP.

Quote your art with fire 🔥

Back from #AnimeNorth and first thing I want to report is I bought some gorgeous handmade silk thread flower hair accessories from the very talented SilkBlossom: www.instagram.com/silkblossom.... Please check out her art, the colours and attention to detail are exquisite 😍🌸✨ #flower #art #silk #hair

Went to the Toronto Zoo last weekend and made sure to admire this absolute unit in the Americas pavilion 😍 Alligator snapping turtles are the Godzilla of turtles, look at that dinosaur tail 🤩🐢✨ #TorontoZoo #turtle #zoo #nature

Ever since I saw the Jody Lee cover art for Mercedes Lackey's "The White Gryphon" book in my teenage years, I always wanted to make my own feathered robe and now I am finally bringing that dream to life 😍🪶✨ I will be debuting these draped robes for sale at #AnimeNorth 🌈✨ #art #birds #feathered

Me modelling the front of a short sleeved draped chiffon robe printed with a pattern of feathered wings with striped barring marks in black and white like a gyrfalcon or snowy owl

Me modelling the same type of feathered robe in shade of brown like a hawk or great horned owl

Me modelling the brown feathered robe but showing the back which is shorter but has the same feathered wings pattern

Me modelling the front of another feathered robe with the robe more open so the sides drape along my torso, this robe is in shades of deep blue and lighter sky blues

She addressed the idea that she made a hypothesis in her article (spoiler alert: she did not make a hypothesis!)

Highlighted text from the article: The stochastic parrots hypothesis has been disproved
Stochastic parrots also does not refer to an empirical hypothesis. Accordingly, it doesn’t make sense to say it’s been “disproved” or that it is “unfalsifiable”.

I will have some new prints as well as some old favourites 😊🌈✨ #AnimeNorth #prints #snakes #birds

I finally got my AA table number for #AnimeNorth 😄 Please come by at i17 and say hi, pet a bee, enjoy some new jewellery and prints! 🦅🔥🌈✨ Look for Sunhawk.ca in the guide book/app/whatever 😂 #AnimeNorth2026 #birbs

I still think I have the best view for sunsets in the city 🤩🌅

I think Musoshin may be the best ramen place in Toronto 😍 My friend and I tried their Harbord location near Spadina station and everything was perfect: my ramen with both chasu pork and beef, the karage chicken, the strawberry jam yogurt cheesecake - exquisite! 😋🍜🍗🍰 #Toronto #food #ramen

Definitely worth following the same advice about uranium rods: drop and run

Second try at having a sun star in my indoor garden, hopefully I will do better this time to keep it alive! 😂🏵️🌞✨🪴

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Swung by City Books on Bloor and admired all the gorgeous books 🤩 City Books has a lot of well-known classic books with very pretty dust covers but also a great selection of books about nature-relates topics, my fave!

The character vs how you drew them

My ink and watercolor illustration of Steve Rogers looking up and off into the distance mournfully as a seagull flies off with his hotdog. Bucky Barnes stands next to him oblivious, eating his own hotdog with relish (both the condiment and emotion)

I mentioned to @windfalcon.bsky.social that I recently wore the red-tailed hawk feather earrings I bought from her in my professional headshot session for work so I'm just showing them off 😁🦅🪶✨💚

It is very amusing to me the lengths that Rachel Reid has gone to in order to obscure the fact that her book was a Stucky fic and "Kip" is a renamed Bucky Barnes as played by Sebastian Stan 😂

The book dedication for Game Changer: this book is for everyone who encouraged me to try to publish this story, and especially to Matt, who supports me wholeheartedly in all things. And also to the random Gap model who was my physical reference for Kip.

In the interest of encouraging others to try out making art of any kind & not just showing the end results, wanted to show a study I did with my new Wacom tablet where I was just doodling around trying to figure how to paint clouds. Not bad for a first try! 😄🌫️ #art #doodle #clouds #DigitalPainting

Update on my footstool to-read pile, got through some of my new Dune books, found a used copy of The Golden Bough (score!) and I finally caved to read the first two Heated Rivalry books 😂 Interested to compare Game Changer to its Stucky fanfic origins ha ha! #booksky

A pile of books on a footstool: Sandworms of Dune, Hunters of Dune, Sands of Dune, Paul of Dune, The Winds of Dune, all by Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson, The Golden Bough by Sir James Frazer, and Heated Rivalry and Game Changer by Rachel Reid

Can someone let the women's Japanese speed skating team know that the colour choices of their outfits keeps confusing my brain, the single area of soft gradient makes me think their thighs are being censored for some reason 😂 #Olympics #MilanoCortina2026 #SpeedSkating

3 Japanese speed skaters in a row on the ice wearing outfits that are mainly stark-edged black and white except their thigh to knee area which are a soft gradient from black to white to lavender that gives the illusion of a blurred area. Photo credit to Katie Stratman-Imagn Images.

Visited my birb friends in my park to give them a little treat to help them get through these last few weeks of winter. It's still so magical to have wild birds feel comfy coming right to my hand like this female downy woodpecker 😍🐦‍⬛✨ They have such strong personalities for such a wee package #birds

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you joy and happiness

Grateful I could just stay in today while the snowstorm raged on all day, worked on some art and now I'm curled up with a good book in front of the fire ;)

Finally caved and jumped on this candle warming trend, I admit I had given up on burning scented candles at home because I'm always worried I'll set off the building fire alarm so this seems like a great solution for apartment buildings ☺️🕯️✨ Mmm bourbon cider candle 🤤
