Furswap was a lot of fun! So many incredible critters, vibes, tarot readings, and new homes for these sweet bbs. I feel so grateful, thank you all so much.

Here’s to chasing more dreams, and to rootn for yours too! 🖤✨

#mixedmediaart #animalart #furryart #anthroart #therianart #artvendor #furswap
An image collage of different illustrations, paintings and one glittery enamel pin. There are 6 panels, two columns of three horizontal rectangles, with cropped images- from top left to bottom right- a feminine figure lays on their side with a fox curled up on the back of their neck, the figure warmingly outstretching a hand to the muzzle. Done in pen and marker, blues, oranges and greens. To the right, a maned wolf in profile mid stride looking at the camera, with a humanoid figure inside, on a purple and black background with white swirlies to the left as a decorative circular frame. The maned wolf is done in bright pink, purple, white and black. Below and to the left is a blue watercolor piece with an inked fantasy creature, a fuzzy beast with a large horn out of the top of the head, long muzzle whiskers, 8 eyes (4 in profile), and small rounded sharp teeth in a somewhat grin. To the right, an image of an anthropomorphic deer/moose looking over their shoulder at the camera, smoke and clouds billowing about, mostly coming out of their third eye. Done on a yellow watercolor background and other hues of blue and orange. Below that and to the left is a zoomed in image of a painting- a ram wearing a hyena hood, both looking at the camera intensely with yellow eyes. To the right is the final image, a circular enamel pin depicting an image of a lil brown bunny on a grassy meadow looking up at the sky at a bright yellow star, against a purple glitter sky. Pins are resting on a wooden surface with eucalyptus leaves, the back of the pin engraved with the name “paw & jaw”.

#furswap #artvendor #therianart #manedwolf
A maned wolf, mid stride, illustrated in layers of bright pink, purple, black and white acrylic lines, on top of a watercolor background of pastel purple and black blocked shapes. In the top right corner are white squiggles in progress that will become more of a decorative frame. The maned wolf looks at the camera, jaw slightly agape showing the bottom row of front teeth, eyes bright and pink. It seems there’s somewhat of a human form within the maned wolf body. Image is a very cropped close up of the piece, depicting just the head, neck, shoulder and part of extended leg.

Just a heads-up: a few copies remain from the original 100-copy hardback run of GODBEAST — my memoir of growing up #Therian in 1970s UK before even having a name for any of it. A story of wildness, faith & becoming the creature I was destined to be.

Close up crop of the anthropomorphic deer with moose antlers, in order to capture the bronze hued glitter and glimmers scattered throughout the smoke and eye details of the piece. An anthropomorphic deer with moose antlers looks over their right shoulder. The robe they wear has cloud and smoke motifs that seem to float on and above it. They have a third eye that has orange smoke like clouds coming out of it, swirling all behind them in various patterns and shades of yellow, orange and brown. The back of their neck fades into becoming smoke as well, and have eyes the color of it- orange/yellow and sparkling in bronze hues. Everything is on a yellow background, with a white circle. Done in watercolor, ink, and gel pens. The subject is done in a greenish blue that fades to teal. Their silhouette also fades into smoke as it connects to the bottom of the background circle design. They seem fierce, unrelenting, badass. Locking eyes with the viewer, glimmering. An anthropomorphic deer with moose antlers looks over their right shoulder.

A thank you for a dear friend, whose support has helped me further pursue more art dreams I didn’t know I could. Thank you again and for your friendship Kris!

#opossum #furryart #anthroart #artmagic #mixedmedia
Picture depicts mixed media art piece on watercolor paper slanted on a wooden table, of an anthropomorphic opossum laying on their side, propped up on their right elbow and left palm. Legs outstretched and crossed, the right foot and toes stretched out the most, tail curled behind them. Head is uplifted with a cute cheeky smile and big voluptuous curly hair that flows out and nearly to the ground. They lay within a frame made of different designs. To the left are blooming dandelions, one in its puff ball form with seeds floating off to the right. Below them are three cacti, one with pointy leaves and white stripes, one with rounded green and orange tips, and one that's somewhat lotus shaped with purple, pink and blue on the leaves. The opossum’s right hand rests gently above them. Below is a panel outlined in metallic bronze ink, with the new moon phases, ending in a full moon on each side. Above them on the right are some purple and blue crystal formations, above them a blue candle, the outstretched possum leg stretching out of frame , and a purple candle behind the leg. The candle gives off blue and purple swirly lines that float to the full moon in the top right corner of the framework. There are purple and blue stars about that scatter to the seeds from the dandelion to the top left corner. The opossum has a red with white interlacing stripe pattern boudoir top and bottom, with a black see through button up knee length robe. Their arms and legs are fluffy with black fur, and very pink toes, nose and tail. This image is a collection of 5 images, showing progress of an art piece depicting an opossum anthropomorphic figure posing in boudoir-laying on their side, propped up on their right elbow and left palm. Legs outstretched and crossed, the right foot and toes stretched out the most, tail curled behind them. Head is uplifted with a cute cheeky smile and big voluptuous curly hair that flows out and nearly to the ground. The first image is a very rough digital image of the design, with the panel below and to the right the first steps of the subject on watercolor paper with a base of paint for fur and hair. The square panel to the left shows details of the frame being fleshed out, like the dandelion and cacti. The frame below and to the right shows more details of the plants and figure in more color, with the bottom frame glimmering with bronze ink. The square frame to the right shows a zoomed shot of the right side of the final form of the piece where the crystals and candles are.

Image is a crop of a drawing zoomed in. A portrait of a seemingly eager maned wolf done in red pencil with varying line thickness and purple eyes with mouth agape, is surrounded by blue lightening bolts outlined in purple, alone with some purple dots and curved lines on their own surrounding the face.

The iPad rests on top of an orange zip bag, and the image on the iPad is of a sketch doodle drawing of a feline skull with the mouth open and invertebrate fading out of view. The lines are done in a bluish and greenish pencil.

Image is a more transparent and mirrored version of other image, with some digital dark blue linework on top of the illustration in the sketchbook, defining more of the subject’s head and details. Top down view of an opened vertical sketchbook on a wooden surface. The the right is a blue pen, to the left is a latte with the foam in a heart shape. To the right of that is an orange flat bag with a golden zipper. Above is a cropped image of a deer neck and back on an iPad screen. The sketchbook has an illustration done in blue marker and blue pen of a deer looking at the camera, with rounded antlers. There’s a background pattern of geometric shapes in seemingly random triangles, circles, and elongated rectangles. The antlers have three decorative threads hanging past the ear on the right. closer to being finished, but not yet. Top down view of an opened vertical sketchbook on a wooden surface.

solar calendar year in review:

Grateful for all I was able to experience, and for the wonderful community support through the growing pains and laughs too.

Lovingly curious how 2026 will unfold, and sending lots of love to you and your year 🖤💫

#artistyearinreview #animalart #mixedmedia #tarotart
Image depicts a collage of art pieces. There are 9 squares, the first and last squares have two images and the rest contain a single image. The first one contains a two wolves in red, one with its mouth around the head of the other, and the image below depicts a blue and yellow crow with its beak open on a toned background. The image to the right is of a crying maned wolf on a purple painted background with rounded orange lines behind it. The image next that one is a painting of a cryptid like creature, a skull head wjyh antlers and fangs, unfolding wings, and a mosaic of color tiles on their shadowy humanoid frame on a red to purple background and blue and teal plant leaves in front. The next image is of a goat with its head back in surrender as the edges of a wolf mouth are coming into frame, done in water color and digital. The middle image is of a humanoid figure seeming to be shifting into a wolf with one human leg and arm, and wolf head, arm and leg. On the ground in a sitting crawling pose looking at the camper with words swirling around, done in pencil and digital. The image to the right of that is of a green and pink crying skeletons hugging with overgrowth of flowers and leaves sprouting out of them, done digitally. The next image, now the first of the bottom row, depicts a hooded figure in shadow, with a crescent moon adornment tied around the forehead, hair flowing out of the hood shadow, and hand in from seeming to hold something aflame. Done traditionally and digitally. The next image is of an anthropomorphic antlered figure drawn in red pencil with blue and red digital pencil. They are holding their hands cupped to the void in their chest, looking down, hair swirling about and decorative lines and patterns surrounding their head and antlers. The last image has a light blue and purple bear looking up at a star in the night sky above, and below an image of a purple and pink bat with mouth open and pink swirly patterns on a purple painted background. Image depicts a collage of 4 images, three square ones at the bottom and one elongated one above. They are images of different art markets and art table/vendor set ups throughout the year. The bottom right is out in the park grass and the first one done, Cutiefest, around summer time. The one to the left is from an art walk in late summer, Fremont Art Walk. Next to that one is from the market in early fall, Impact Fur Swap, and the image above is the latest from the early winter at Slightly Furry Craft Market. Each image has a different setup and flow of pieces, some gone from one to the next, some still there in every picture. The purple table blanket, tarot table, blue cloth cover and blue and green camping chairs are the same throughout.

bats! so cool and cute~🦇 ✨

Big Brown Bats:
-eat flying insects and catch them while in flight, like beetles, wasps, etc
-can live up to 18-20 years in the wild if they survive their first hibernation
-can fly up to 40mph

#natureisawesome #natureinspired #artislove #illustration #bigbrownbatart
Image is a closeup of an illustration done in black, purple and bright pink. The background is purple paint washed, with a black border. The subject is a big brown bat bust, mostly their head and bend of the wings. They are surrounded in a circle of squiggly designs done in pink at the edge of the painting, framing in a circle. The bar seems to be joyful with mouth open and has bright white pointy teeth with a circular cavernous moth. Image is a closeup of an illustration done in black, purple and bright pink.

Image is of a top down view of an opened sketchbook. There’s an illustration in red pencil of a striped hyena in profile, silhouette bigger than the rectangle it stands in, with geometric patterns at the bottom, and a red circle behind the face like a sun. The stripes and shape are done in a teal marker and outlines of the face and neck beginning to take shape with a dark blue pen.

Image depicts two paintings on top of a dark cloth textured background. The biggest painting on the bottom is of a somewhat abstract canine figure painted in black with yellow accented lines, and areas that show the background underneath of a dripping and splattered purple paint against a light blue. The smaller painting on top is of a anthro wolf silhouette jumping in front of a bright light with their hands up and knees bent. The background is blue and rays of light shoot out around the whole picture from the small of their back. Done in marker and paint marker.

I’ve always thought varnishing videos were really cool, but hadn’t thought of using it myself. Trying it for the first time and wow does it pop!

#varnish #paintingprogress #bearart #celestial #shinypaint
Image depicts picture of a painting with gravel concrete behind it. The painting is of a bear in blends of pastels of light ice blue, dark purple, teal, yellow undertones, black shadows and white highlights looking up at a star centered in the night sky. There’s turquoise swirls from the four corners of the painting swirling in the direction of the center star. Other stars are scattered about, spatters of shiny turquoise paint, and silhouettes of the tops of tall pine trees arching over the view are barely visible in the night backdrop. The bear looks happy and whimsical. This is the full top view of the image before varnishing. Image depicts picture of a painting with a colorful blanket and beige carpet behind it.
