In the midst of putting lights on houses I snapped this for #foliagefriday! This is a pair of satsuki azalea at my sister's. #nature #photography #naturephotography #evergreen #azalea #flowers #pink #white #mixed #pair
A pair of brightly blooming flowers pointing away from each other. Both flowers are mixed pink and white striped. They both sit on a bed of green leaves with some grey masonry filtering through.

Here is a cleaner, blown up version. The original #sketch was on a 5" x 8" sketchbook page. You can see in the scan the shading got pulled too, but the inking of the lines helped to bring out the contrast. #Sonic #SonictheHedgehog #lineart #inks #copy #enlarged #fanart #sonicart
A highly contrasted ink illustration of Sonic the Hedgehog. He is in a dynamic pose, facing toward the viewer, but looking to the right (his left). Only one arm is visible as the other is behind him hidden by his body. There is smoke or steam coming off his back leg which is in a stylized shadow. There is a large black shadow below him.

I hope everyone had a pleasant #Thanksgiving. Don't mind me, just doing my duty as the most physically stable person in the family to put up lights this morning. #seasongreetings #holidays #lights #family #roof #rooftop #chimney #bluesky #house #morning
The head of a man is in the bottom right corner of the picture. He has longer hair and bright orange sunglasses. He also has a prominent split mustache and a beard. The man appears to be sitting on a rooftop with a chimney behind him on the opposite side of the frame. There are some hills in the background with a bright sunny sky taking the top half of the photograph. There are white fluffy clouds covering most of the sky and sun, but they aren't so thick that they are blocking it completely.

Here is a picture of Sonic I drew in a sketchbook over a decade ago. I have recently gotten it blown up and inked so the students can color them when they finish their work. #sketch #pencil #pencilsketch #sketchbook #art #Sonic #Sega #action #fanart #sonicart
A dynamic pose of Sonic the Hedgehog. He is facing toward the viewer. Sonic is in a bent knee pose leaning forward. There is smoke coming off the back of him. There is some stylized shading on the smoke as it trails off of Sonic. Sonic has his left leg closer to the viewer and his right leg further in the picture, with less detail and more shadow.

One of the kids at a school where I #substitute asked for a picture of #CousinIt from #theaddamsfamily. Not to be confused with Pennywise from #StephenKingsIT. #marker #alcoholmarker #art #fanart #multimedia #pen #addamsfamily
An illustration of cousin it from the Addams family. The character is shaped like an isosceles triangle. He is colored in varying shades of yellow to brown. The character is completely covered in hair so the marker strokes are of various sizes and thicknesses. He has circular sunglasses with a purple tint. Below his sunglasses is a large moustache. He has a black bowler cap that is tinted dark blue.

I have finalized the mockup of my #Rayquaza picture I am going to do for a friend. The sky is going to be more space than purple. #pokemon #markers #beach #night #dragon #witness
A detailed but not terribly refined illustration of the dragon pokemon Rayquaza coming down from the sky. The scene is taking place on a beach at night time. There is a person on the edge of the beach standing on grass underneath a coconut tree. The person is watching the Rayquaza come out of a cloud. The multiple shades of blue in the ocean give a sense of movement. The sky is a deep purple.

Why did the glove cross the road?
#OneGloveOneVoice #NoGloveNoLove #FindMeSomebodytoGlove #LoveWithaLittleG
A right handed work glove is framed in the lower third of the picture laying on the road near a manhole. It is a sunny cloudless day and there is a portion of the photographer's shadow in the lower right of the photo. Above the glove at the edge of the road is a warning, curved road, sign. The road disappears into the background up a hill on the left. There are blurry houses and a fence along the road. The glove itself is of white with dirt on the palm of the glove. The wrist is a striped grey with a black edge.

Warning, shadow people walking. #park #night #shadow #shadowpeople #sign #liminal #empty
A night time picture of a road sign. The sign is a warning sign for people walking - it is a yellow sign with a black silhouetted person walking towards the left. There is a wire fence stretching into the distant darkness separating a road on the left from a walking path on the right. The scene is lit by a streetlight behind the photographer causing the sign to cast a very dark shadow on the ground.

After a long hiatus I present on this #foliagefriday a saltmarsh aster. It even has a little #bee friend! #nature #photography #naturephotography #flowers #white #yellow #bumblebee #apiology
There are two distinct white petal flowers with bright yellow centers. Each of the petals is long and skinny, and they are clustered in small groups not evenly spread out. There is a small bee flying, partially out of focus, towards the topmost flower. Below the flowers, as the background, are more, less prominent, blooms. Some are older with very few petals left, and some are going to be blooming soon. There is a large brown dried leaf on the right of the picture taking up most of the edge.

We are back from #TRF! It was a lot of fun. Here is the #cleancopy of the KPop Demon Hunters character, Jinu, that I had posted earlier. Feel free to take it, just let me see what happens! #KPop #kpopdemonhunters #demon #sajaboys #Jinu #lineart #fanart
Line art for an illustration of Jinu from KPop Demon Hunters. The shadows are represented by hashing. The character's right arm is posed ready to snap with its left hidden behind the body. The character is standing up but tilted at an angle slightly. Although the character has a complete upper body the bottom clothing fades off the edge.

Now that #inktober2025 has come to an end, I would like to thank everyone who at least looked at my art, even if you didn't interact with it. I have had a lot of difficulty completing things lately and this has helped immensely. Thank you.

Sorry I didn't post my #inktober for the 30th. I wasn't sure since the prompt was #vacant.

Haha, just kidding, I collapsed when I got home and went to sleep. I'll post it later today along with the final of October. #inktober2025

Another long day today, but tomorrow substituting should be easier. But #Halloween is around the corner. Day 28 theme - #skeletal. #inktober #inktober2025 #skull #diadelosmuertos #hallowseve #allhallowseve #oct31

There is a large oval jewel with petal like structures around it in the center of the forehead. On either side of this are for more ovals in a line getting smaller the further from the center they are. Below the eyes are some illustrations. Instead of teeth there are three teardrop shaped structures in the shape of lips. This also has four circles on either side. The chin is also illustrated. On both sides of the jaw is a sun with six large ovular rays. There are four tear drops descending like earrings from below the jawline on both sides.
