I found your adorable work through my sister, and I’ve lived with suicidal ideation for most of my teenage and adult life. You’re worth so much more than the awful things the voices in your head say ❤️

A constant reminder that in order to be good at something you need to practice, you’ll only get better if you keep going, you’ll get nowhere if you give up 😘

Honestly I’d love that they’re great at controlling the mosquitos but my cat loves eating bugs and I’m scared they’ll get hurt 😭

This big beauty somehow keeps finding their way into my studio and I had to save them from my cat. AGAIN.

Working on commissions and other work today. I’ve a few big conventions lined up this year so I may as well get started on prep for that too as well as stuff for my online store

I had some people ask how I got the ‘fog’ effect when recording some of my creatures and the answer is very simple. I forgot to wipe my phones camera lens lol

Penny the Owlbear Cub Puppet I made for @ultimateh3ro.bsky.social

This cutie was so much fun to create, She’s based on the Owlbear Cub from @larianstudios.bsky.social game Baldurs gate

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

Nearly snapped my neck 6 times on the step ladder but I’m finally making the studio feel like home. I have to do something while waiting for glue to dry on this foam lol
