hey I'm Harbor and I play a lot of TTRPGs and here's a small selection of some of the art I've made about it

an illustration of a humanoid sea creature with red kelp hair falling unconscious into the ocean, tangled in a large stalk of kelp in a kelp forest, as ice chunks rise to the surface

illustration of a selkie partially wrapped in their sealskin, casting glowing ocean-themed magic against a vaporwave-styled background

illustration of an elven dullahan in dark gray and black armor with a red, tattered cape, holding a sword with one hand and carrying her head against her hip with her other arm, and traveling through darkened woods. red ribbons are tied in her hair, on her sword, and are fluttering in the background, and a bright blue flame sprouts from where her head would normally be.

a stylized sticker sheet of Cleric, an elven dullahan without her armor, including a sticker of her name, her sword, a white ribbon with "Remember!" above it, her in a gray and purple outfit, her sitting dejectedly on the ground with a blue flame in place of her head, her head by itself looking disappointed to be on the ground, and tourmalated moonstones in the shape of sparkles

I don't even know if there is an app because a year or two ago one of my social media apps updated and pissed me off so bad that I uninstalled all of them and started exclusively looking at social media through web browsers

Saw a friend's drawing that I missed the first time around though so it's not all bad

favorite feature of bluesky on firefox mobile is when I make a post and then get teleported to my feed from a month ago and don't notice until I've already liked two different posts and now it looks like I'm rooting through someone's profile

Completely forgot what photo of Archimedes I was actually looking for because I saw this one and cracked up. Why does he look so spherical

sleeping's been fine lately

Grayscale drawing of two people sleeping in bed. The person on the left, labeled "raised them from three weeks", is half-awake with three dark gray cats laying on top of the covers directly over him, with one reaching out and touching his face. The person on the right, labeled "step parent", is sleeping peacefully, with no cats sleeping on top of them or touching their face.

the number of times I was told "but [x] complication is unlikely since you're young" or "you're young so I'm not concerned about [y] part of recovery" while preparing for surgery was just like (looking around as a guy in his 30s) huh! well neat

sometimes I can make him go up the stairs by himself through repeated nudging and excessive praise but there's a nonzero chance his peanut brain will become convinced he's going to the vet at 10:30pm

Harb Sephant @harboretum.bsky.social · 18h

he loves sleeping between us at night but won't willingly get up from his beanbag chair and follow us to bed unless I put his stupid little basket in front of him so he can climb in and be ski-lifted up the stairs

A colored sketch of Howl and Sophie from Howl's Moving Castle. Howl is leaning over a tiled counter with his bangs clipped back and his hair tied in a ponytail and is applying eyeliner while Sophie holds a basket and hat behind him, saying "Howllll it's just the market" exasperatedly. Other makeup items are partly visible on the counter in front of him, and he is already wearing shimmer blush and lip gloss.

it's been one of those days

comic of a guy holding a cup, a crumpled napkin, and a remote, labeled "goes in sink", "goes in trash", and "goes in neither of those, why are you holding the remote rn", respectively. the next panel shows the kitchen trash and the kitchen sink, highlighted, and the third panel cuts back to the guy, sweating nervously, with the text "don't fuck it up"

<- most sensitive man in the world who has to draw on a medium gray background with <25% screen brightness and only turn it up to do color work

Harb Sephant @harboretum.bsky.social · 2d

I started drawing howl movingcastle putting on makeup and then remembered to turn my brightness up and now I gotta redo the colors. tomorrow

you mean to tell me sophie has lipstick and mascara but the man who tried to drown himself in slime over his hair dye doesn't even get eyeliner

Gotta really make sure it's cheese

#art #comics #cats

A gray cat with big wet eyes looks up at a hand holding a piece of cheese, with the off-screen person saying "Okay Vive remember, you gotta eat it fast or else your brother will take it". Upon being given the cheese she sniffs it continuously until a larger gray cat shoves her aside and eats the cheese. She watches him walk away, looks back at the empty space where the cheese was, and then looks back up to beg for more cheese with even bigger eyes while the offscreen person says "Girl,"

Good afternoon as a heads up I've decided to start tagging all my art with #harbart to make my art easier to find on my profile and I'm gonna start quoting all the stuff I've already posted with the tag but I'm thinking I'll do that with maybe one every day or so so no one gets flooded

Harb Sephant @harboretum.bsky.social · 6d

I actually started drawing and posting comics of my own characters because of gregoryshitshow because I kept getting comments that were variations of "I have no idea who these characters are but this is funny" which emboldened me to just start posting about my own characters instead

Harb Sephant @harboretum.bsky.social · 6d

later that year I also ran a ghs shitpost blog that I posted to almost every day for a month straight and and it had these two follow-ups about the judgement boy drawing

a black and white ink drawing of Prompter and Judgment Boy from Gregory Horror Show. The Prompter on the left is cutting Judgment Boy out of a bush with hedge clippers while saying "Fuck's sake JB" while the Prompter on the right is attempting to pull him out with a rope while saying "I could've been an actor"

A grayscale digital drawing of Dr. Fritz, Gregory, and Catherine from Gregory Horror Show. Gregory is approaching Dr. Fritz at his desk saying "Judgment Boy's stuck in a bush again" while Dr. Fritz looks up from examining an x-ray image of Mummy Papa's skull while saying "I still don't see how that's a medical issue." Catherine can be seen through the window burying an unidentified body in the distance.

I drew a ton of gregory horror show fanart in 2018 and I'm still very fond of these two

a color drawing of Gregory from Gregory Horror Show, laying casually on the ground and saying "In hell on a Friday night? God, you're pathetic", styled after the Sonic meme where a comic panel of Sonic laying on the ground in the same pose was edited to say "Alone on a Friday night? God, you're pathetic."

A 2-panel color comic featuring Judgment Boy from Gregory Horror Show, in a bush so only his head is visible, saying "Ha ha ha" and "Judgment Boy!!", imitating an out of context 2-panel crop of a Spiderman comic where Spiderman is similarly in a bush, saying "Ha ha ha" and "Spiderman!!"
